Profile

Magnificently furnished and extravagantly spacious, all 101 suites with sea or city view have round-the-clock butler service. The elegance of the suites is luxuriously alluring: an enchanted backdrop to dreamy days and ardent nights. Each suite is tastefully and thoughtfully furnished with essential amenities in a spacious bathroom.

From its foundation by the Sarkies brothers in 1885, the E&O was patronised by colonial administrators, planters and the local and international elite. Among its more famous guests it has welcomed Noel Coward, Douglas Fairbanks, Hermann Hesse, Rudyard Kipling and Somerset Maugham. Today, the E&O is still the choice of many of the world’s discerning travellers.

A tantalising medley of flavours and aromas tempts guests to sample the delicious fare of the hotel’s restaurants, cafés and bars, each with its unique aura. And if a midnight snack is needed, The Eastern & Oriental provides 24-hour Room Service.

For a conference or a meeting with a difference, experience the old world charm of our Grand Ballroom with a 400-seat capacity, a full stage, royal boxes and gallery. Six smaller function suites which accommodate groups of 20 to 150 persons are also available.
