Excellent Hotel combining luxurious with honest price

I went to Penang Island on Holiday Vacations in Malaysia and besides the beautiful places I’ve seen in GeorgeTown I believe that it won’t be complete if I wasn’t in E&O Hotel. The place is wonderful, excellent rooms, staff and structure. The pool is a must everybody should go. Definitively you are inside Penang’s history when you check-in in E&O.

Elegance in Penang

Beautiful colonial hotel which magnificent pool. The restaurant were eager to please, with a vast choice of food, however the appearance was better than the taste. The rooms and the butler service were very impressive, but the internet services could be improved. Although enjoyable stay.

The hotel is opposite the nightlife of the city in Upper Penang road and close to all the major tourist sites

Amazing Period Hotel !

Staying at the E&O was like being transported back to the colonial era and gave one the feeling of how it would have been back in the day. This hotel is the place to stay especially in a place like Georgetown ! which is totally soaked in history and culture. On the beach and in the centre of the historical remnants . The hotel has been a part of the orient express travel path i’m told and i can certainly belive it.

Our 6 year old loved it mainly because of the pool, great breakfast and very large rooms ! The toilets are also very large so it is quite comfortable for families.
