Eastern & Oriental Hotel

10, Lebuh Farquhar, George Town, 10200 George Town, Pulau Pinang

THE GRANDE DAME OF GEORGE TOWN, PENANG

The Eastern & Oriental Hotel – known simply as the ‘E&O’ to generations of travellers – exudes a charm that is inimitably its own. For most of its history, its passageways and halls were the preserve of the rich and privileged from the Western world – intrepid travellers that included acclaimed writers and aspiring literati who arrived in steamships seeking to experience the exotic East.

Even with the passage of time, this unique pearl at the heart of George Town continues to shine as a testament to the grand elegance of the British colonial era, the embodiment of both a special time and a special place. Indeed, at the E&O, life’s true pleasures never go out of fashion.

For almost 135 years, the hotel has welcomed the world in timeless style. This legacy is conserved and further elevated with the re-opening of the Heritage Wing that is now setting the new standard as a leading destination in classic hospitality.

The Edison George Town, Penang

15 Lebuh Leith, George Town, Penang Island 10200 Malaysia

COLONIAL CHARM MEETS CONTEMPORARY CHIC

A meticulously restored Colonial mansion set in the heart of historical George Town, Penang – a Lifestyle Hotel awaits to be discovered. Offering a combination of luxurious comfort, exceptional guest service and gracious hospitality, it is where one can truly Experience the Exceptional.

Located on Lebuh Leith, and named after Sir George Alexander William Leith, the first Lieutenant-Governor of the Prince of Wales Island. It is one of the island’s earliest streets and an affluent enclave where wealthy Hakka tycoons made their home.

The building was commissioned and built in 1906 as a residence for a tycoon named Yeo Wee Gark. It was designed by David Nathaniel, a popular architect at the time, and was only transformed into a hotel after the Second World War. During the Japanese Occupation of Penang, the building was used as their administrative centre. The building was designed with many of the opulence associated with the wealthy, for instance generous open space planning and the extensive use of timber, metal, tile and glass.

In the mid-1940s, the owner converted the building into a hotel. Thereafter several architectural and interior enhancements were made in the 1960s to better the hotel’s offerings.

It wasn’t till late 2014 that a comprehensive transformation of this beautiful Colonial mansion – planning, design, restoration, renovation and it’s rebranding as The Edison George Town, Penang began and was rebirth mid-July 2016.

Seven Terraces

14a, Stewart Ln, George Town, Penang Island 10200 Malaysia

Built in the late 19th century, Seven Terraces was a contiguous row of Anglo-Chinese terrace houses located just behind the Goddess of Mercy Temple. The row of houses today is a sterling splendid example of an adaptive reuse of heritage buildings that were of low density and low impact.

Historically, these houses were a redevelopment of the original Lee Kongsi building circa 1893, in a period of time when George Town’s Kelly maps were just completed. The row was redeveloped by Koe Guan, the holding company of local millionaire and governor of southern Thailand, Khaw Sim Bee. This row was the first residential and commercial expansion by Koe Guan outside of the original settlement that bordered Pitt Street. Houses built by local property developers along Stewart Lane and Muntri Street at the end of the 19th century were the earliest examples of mass housing that were taller, more imposing and with significantly higher ceilings as compared to shophouses built in other parts of George Town earlier in that century.

Malihom Private Estate

168 Kiri N/T, Balik Pulau, Penang Island 11000 Malaysia

Malihom is a homegrown retreat tucked away in a 40-acre private estate in Balik Pulau, Penang. It started off as a family holiday estate before we opened to the public in 2009.

When you book a stay at our signature Hilltop accommodation, you will be staying in rice barns made of teak wood.

Originally built as granaries and sometimes as temporary shelter for farmers, rice barns dotted the fields in the countryside for centuries. They formed part of the history of farming in the region and exemplified the use of local building materials and techniques.

The design of the barns are simple with large columns, partially open to the elements and low-pitched roofs. Over time, as farming became mechanised, barns outlived their usefulness. Farmers struggled with putting the structures in good use.

Today, there is an increasing move to inject new life into them, along with laws to protect and preserve them. Many of the barns that are over one hundred years old are now classified as Thailand’s National Heritage.
