5 Star stay at E&O
Great hotel. Either the Heritage or Annex victory is great.Rooms are huge. We stayed at the annexed Victory wing and have a great view of the sea. Breakfast buffet was spectacular. Rooms need updating especially the TV. Wall charges on bed side should include USB charges. The big negative is crossing the street from the hotel. Seems like this is a big issue with many guest trying to cross the street.

It is by far one of the best places I have stayed without spending an arm and a leg. We traveled from Australia and were impressed by the breakfast inclusion with room along with complimentary mini bar and bottled water throughout. We also had buffet dinner which was worth it. The place was so surreal and relaxing. The facilities and staff were excellent.

We were delayed in London due to no fault of us but the airline. They compensated us without us asking to upgrade our room to a suite and also when I told them if we can hv a buffet on the house, there was no hesitation to honour it. Thank you Eastern n Oriental as it made us feel happy after such a horrendous journey as we had to rearrange n lost quite abit due to delay .
