Property Highlights

Culture & History

A stay at the Eastern & Oriental places you directly into the rich culture of Penang. The property itself boasts a long and colourful history, first established in 1885 after the opening of the Suez Canal, and existing through two world wars, the decline of the British Empire and the birth of modern Malaysia. The hotel is also ideally placed just a five-minute walk from the colourful, colonial UNESCO-listed George Town. On your doorstep, uncover two heritage trails that can be explored by foot or trishaw, passing several key city sights - including City Hall, Little India and the Blue Mountain mansion.
