Eastern & Oriental Express, A Belmond Train

The Eastern & Oriental Express, A Belmond Train, Southeast Asia invites guests to discover the soul of Malaysia, uncovering the opulence, ancient wonders, and landscapes that the destination has to offer.

The train boasts eight sleeping carriages, two restaurants, a Piano Bar, and the open-air Observation Car. On board, guests can find three different cabin categories – Pullman, State, and Presidential – whose designs reflect the different landscapes the train travels through. The cherry wood interiors evoke a warm ambience and each cabin is air-conditioned and fitted with en-suite showers and bathrooms. Within the two elegant restaurant cars, Southeast Asia cuisine and culture is celebrated throughout the menu, devised by world-acclaimed chef André Chiang. To unwind, guests can visit the Piano Bar, immediately located in the centre of the train, the social hub. Here, live performances take place, combining elements of Nanyang jazz, Malay vintage tunes and Western music. At the rearend of the train is the open-air Observation Car, with its very own bar, where guests can enjoy the panoramic scenery and breathtaking sunsets.
