Eastern & Oriental Hotel (E&O)
Grande-dame seafront ballrooms — the multicultural anchor
Penang's grand 1885 British colonial hotel on the George Town seafront, and the most banquet-capable venue of the heritage set. The Grand Ballroom seats up to 400 and function suites scale from 20 to 600. It's the one heritage venue here that explicitly offers Malay Hidang-style service alongside Chinese set menus, Western set and international buffet — making it the natural choice for large Malay/halal-leaning or mixed-culture weddings.
