Eastern & Oriental Hotel
The E&O as it’s fondly known was first established in 1885 and remains the only hotel in the city to occupy prime sea frontage. The Victory Annexe includes a sixth-floor infinity pool, an art gallery and a Thai spa. While the Heritage Wing is an ode to a bygone era, with antique furnishings. The decor at the Eastern & Oriental is, in the main, classic and polished, with muted earthy tones, marble and dark wood. Planters Lounge serves drinks and snacks with a view, while the 1885 restaurant offers European style fine menus and a buffet or a la carte can be enjoyed at Sarkies.
