Beautiful shots. Classic.

Oh my! What great shots here. Totally classics. The hotel should pay for this free advertisement.. for a non Penangite, I probably end up at this hotel just by looking at your shots. Well done, Criz.

Wow what a lovely place. I bet it's spectacular in person.

Judging from these photos, the E&O Hotel has a lot of character. Great choice for our "classic" theme.

A wonderful hotel and very much a classic. I so much prefer hotels with character like this, rather than the anonymous modern blocks, no matter how luxurious.
