Gary, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

A delightful step back into the charm of traveling in the past. Like Raffles in Singapore, this hotel will bring you back to the time when travel felt like living abroad. Our room was beautiful, a suite opening up onto the garden next to the waters edge. The room is beyond comfortable and quiet, a beautiful experience. The hotel staff is helpful and friendly, the hotel itself is quiet and spacious. The breakfast is delicious, we had one of the best Nasi Gorengs here. Overall, a highly recommended place to stay in George Town.

10/10 Excellent

Beautiful old colonial hotel, great value for money for food and beverages and best location in central George Town
Gillian, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Staff in general not very friendly except the doormen and porters. Cockroach at noodle area at breakfast. Just not a welcoming vibe in general. I’m a platinum member with an established group of hotels and I forwent that to experience something different and I found the hotel to be nothing special. May have the laurels of being 140 years old but the welcoming is definitely not that.
BRIAN, 3-night trip

Easily accessable to anywhere in Geogetown. House keeping service us excellent. Breakfast choices are abundant. Swimming pool area is fully self service. This is an area that could be improved, at least with provision of water or ice water, etc.

We had a wonderful stay at the E&O hotel, the surroundings were lovely and it had such an old school luxury charm. All dining areas were lovely and the club lounge for cocktail hour added something extra special. Thank you for a wonderful stay and I would recommend this to anyone who would like to stay in a hotel with such history and good service.
