Decent
Room is comfy and cozy, staff is good and friendly. Only thing is the breakfast isn't satisfying but different people taste differently though.

Very good
Spectacular room and overall property. Great views. Food lets it down though, both breakfast and the "fine dining", which really isn't.

Return Visit
This was our second visit as guests to the E&O Hotel. We adore the old wing of the hotel and enjoy the new swimming pool and the facilities created by the new extension. Staff were charming and helpful.

Loved it!
loved the way the hotel has retained its old-world charm juxtaposed with modern convenience. We stayed at the lower unit, which opens up to the lawn and the swimming pool. Was great for the kids, who could be by themselves in the pool with us not too far away.

Visiting Malacca,
Great hotel with amazing atmosphere. Rooms are large and well equipped, bed is soft & the view was great. The pool is a bit small but is good to relax just swimming a few laps. Parking can be a bit off as there is no direct drive in access from the lobby, but the staff will help all the way if you have any questions. They offer a wifi portable hub as well as a mobile phone upon request (there is a fee) that can help while visiting the city.
