In addition to the Eastern & Oriental Express, you’ll stay in some of the world’s best hotels: the Mandarin Oriental, Bangkok, and RuMa Hotel & Residences. Aboard the train, enjoy sumptuous feasts served on silverware, world-class champagne, wine and cocktails and jazz-club music lingering in the air.
