There's just so much to love about the brand new gorgeous looking interior of the Heritage Wing of Eastern and Oriental Hotel Penang. The place underwent an extensive refurbishment which was carried out since March earlier this year and the much anticipated re-opening showcased the stunning beauty of the place with much elegance and luxuriousness of hospitality.
