pay to acquire the shares, in accordance with the intrinsic value method under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25. If compensation cost for the Company's stock option plan had been
determined based on fair values as of the date of grant, OEH's net earnings and earnings per share would have been reported as follows (dollars in thousands, except in share amounts):

|                                      |              |                                                                                                              | Six months ended June 30, |

2.     Acquisitions and investments

In February 2002, OEH acquired the hotel La Residencia in Mallorca, Spain and the hotel Le Manoir aux Quat'Saisons in Oxfordshire, England and a 50%
interest in a group of four restaurants called Le Petit Blanc in England, all for approximately $40,000,000. The price was paid largely with bank mortgage finance.

In
March 2002, OEH acquired for approximately $7,500,000 a 75% share interest in Maroma Resort and Spa near Cancun, Mexico. The purchase price was paid in cash, with $1,000,000
paid in March 2003.

No
goodwill was recognized in these transactions. These acquisitions have been accounted for as a purchase in accordance with SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations.

On
April 25, 2003, OEH acquired a 50% interest in the Ritz Hotel in Madrid, Spain through a 50/50 joint venture with a Spanish real estate investment company. The purchase price
was $135,000,000, and each joint venture partner contributed $22,000,000 with the balance financed by bank loans. Subsidiaries of the Company are obligated on $27,000,000 of these loans until the
completion of various legal procedures in Spain, which are expected to take six to nine months, when the debt would be entirely non-recourse to OEH. In addition to its interest in the
hotel, OEH acquired the exclusive long-term management contract of the hotel. This investment is accounted for under the equity method of accounting.

The
results of these operations have been included in the consolidated financial results of OEH from the dates of acquisition, and the assets and liabilities of the acquired companies
have been recorded at their fair value at the dates of acquisition. The pro forma impact on results, had these acquisitions occurred on January 1, 2002, is not material.

The
Company is incorporated in Bermuda, which does not impose an income tax. OEH's effective tax rate is entirely due to the income taxes imposed by jurisdictions in which OEH conducts
business other than Bermuda.

Deferred
income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for
income tax purposes. The following represents OEH's net deferred tax liabilities (dollars in thousands):

|Net deferred tax assets      |  |               | 21,641  |                   |

|Net deferred tax liabilities |  | $             | (2,715  | )                 | $

The
deferred tax assets consist of tax loss carryforwards and the future tax benefits of accrued pension costs recognized in other comprehensive income. The deferred tax liabilities
consist primarily of differences between the tax basis of depreciable assets and the adjusted basis as reflected in the financial statements.

11.   Subsequent event

On July 30, 2003, OEH borrowed $103,000,000 under a bank-syndicated loan facility totalling $154,000,000 secured on three Italian hotels. The
initial drawdown was used principally to refinance an existing $78,000,000 loan facility secured on the same hotels and guaranteed by SCL, with the balance providing additional working capital. The
new facility which is not guaranteed by SCL places certain financial covenants on OEH, namely a minimum consolidated net worth test and a minimum consolidated interest coverage test, both as defined.

Management
believes that EBITDA is a useful measure of operating performance, used by management and investors to help determine the ability of a company or property to incur capital
expenditure or service indebtedness, because it is not affected by non-operating factors such as leverage and the historic cost of assets. EBITDA is also a financial measure commonly used
in the hotel and leisure industry. However, EBITDA does not represent cash flow from operations as defined by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, is not necessarily indicative of cash
available to fund all cash flow needs and should not be considered as an alternative to earnings from operations under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for purposes of evaluating results
of operations.

Operating
information for OEH's owned hotels for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 is as follows:

Average
daily rate is the average amount achieved for the rooms sold. RevPAR is revenue per available room, that is the rooms department revenue divided by the number of available rooms
for each night of operation. Same store RevPAR is a comparison based on the operations of the same units in each period, such as by excluding the effect of any acquisitions or major refurbishments.

Revenue

Total revenue, including earnings from unconsolidated companies, increased by $12.8 million, or 16%, from $79.1 million in the three months ended
June 30, 2002 to $91.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2003. Hotels and restaurants revenue increased by $11.9 million, or 18%, from $65.7 million in the
three months ended June 30, 2002 to $77.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2003.

Tourist
trains and cruises revenue increased by $0.9 million, or 7%, from $13.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 to $14.3 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2003. This was due to revenue being collected in euros and other currencies which were substantially stronger against the U.S. dollar in the quarter compared to the
same quarter in the prior year. Underlying revenue on the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express was down $1.2 million primarily as the Iraq war adversely impacted the key booking period and there were
less American guests travelling on the train to and from Paris due to the U.S.-France political situation. The cruise ship and train located in Asia (Road to Mandalay and the 25%-owned Eastern and
Oriental Express) were also negatively impacted in the quarter primarily due to the SARS epidemic.

The
revenue increase for hotels and restaurants was mainly due to an increase at OEH's owned hotels of $11.4 million, or 20%, from $57.2 million in the three months ended
June 30, 2002 to $68.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2003. The revenue from hotel management and part ownership interests increased by $1.0 million, or 28%,
from $3.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2002 to $4.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2003, which was mainly due to management fees and share of
earnings of the Hotel Ritz in Madrid acquired in April 2003. The revenue from restaurants decreased by $0.5 million, or 10%, from $5.0 million in the three months ended
June 30, 2002 to $4.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2003. This was mainly due to the smoking ban introduced in New York City and reduced Wall Street corporate
entertaining, both adversely affecting '21' Club.

The
change in revenue and EBITDA at owned hotels is analyzed on a regional basis as follows:

Europe.Revenue increased by $7.2 million, or 23%, from $31.1 million for the three months ended
June 30, 2002 to $38.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003. Same Store RevPAR decreased by 4% in local currencies in the three months ended June 30, 2003
compared to the three months ended June 30, 2002. The components of this were a 12% reduction in occupancy offset by an increase in average daily rate. Expressed in U.S. dollars, the RevPAR
change translated to an increase of 18% as the euro was substantially stronger against the U.S. dollar in the three months ended June 30, 2002. Also, the Easter holiday falling in the 2003
second quarter benefited the period.

The
EBITDA in U.S. dollars of the region increased by $2.5 million, or 22%, from $11.4 million in the three months ended June 30, 2002 to $13.9 million in the
three months ended June 30, 2003. As indicated above, this increase was largely attributable to the strengthening euro. Expressed in euros, revenue for the three months ended June 30,
2002 was approximately €34.0 million compared to approximately €33.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003, and the EBITDA was
approximately €12.4 million against approximately €12.3 million. Overall the European properties held their own in what was a flat quarter in terms of
local currency.

OEH's
European hotels have relatively low business from U.S.-based tour operators and conference and incentive organizers, with most of OEH's U.S. customers being fully independent
travellers who, it is believed, are less price sensitive than group business and their travel plans are less affected by the stronger euro.

North America.Revenue increased by $3.4 million, or 24%, from $14.2 million in the three months ended
June 30, 2002 to $17.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2003. Approximately $3.0 million of the revenue increase was mainly attributable to Maroma Resort and Spa,
an acquisition made in 2002, and the Inn at Perry Cabin which was closed during the second quarter last year. The Inn at Perry Cabin has now re-opened with the addition of 40 new rooms
doubling its size.

The
EBITDA of the North American properties was $3.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2003, the same as the previous year's period. The revenue increases
attributable to Maroma Resort and Spa and the Inn at Perry Cabin in the quarter over the same quarter last year did not convert into additional EBITDA because Maroma was in its seasonal low period and
the Inn at Perry Cabin had additional costs with the expectation of increased occupancy of the new rooms going forward. These two hotels have good prospects for the future, and OEH's established
hotels have stabilized their earnings in the quarter with same store RevPAR for the North American region increasing by 2% in the three months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the three months
ended June 30, 2002.

Rest of the World.Revenue increased by $0.7 million, or 6%, from $11.9 million in the three months ended
June 30, 2002 to $12.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2003. The same store RevPAR for the rest of the world region decreased by 10% in local currencies in the three
months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2002. The Australian properties were badly affected by the SARS epidemic as business persons who would usually
travel to Australia with a stop-over in Asia cancelled their trips. Bora Bora Lagoon Resort was also impacted by being perceived as an Asian destination. For the South African properties
the second quarter is traditionally a seasonally low quarter although the revenue earned at the properties when translated into U.S. dollars benefited from the strength of the rand. With the operating
costs also being incurred in rand, however, this translated into an increased seasonal loss. The same store RevPAR change translated to a 4% increase when expressed in U.S. dollars primarily due to
the stronger South African rand.

The
EBITDA of the rest of the world properties declined by $1.4 million, or 80%, from $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 to $0.4 million
for the three months ended June 30, 2002.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization increased by $1.6 million, or 32%, from $4.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2002 to
$6.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2003, primarily due to the effect of acquisitions and capital expenditures in 2002 as well as the effect of the weakness of the U.S.
dollar against currencies in which OEH records some of its assets.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses increased by $7.1 million, or 19%, from $36.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2002 to $43.6 million in
the three months ended June 30, 2003. This was mainly due to the weakness of the U.S. dollar, particularly against the euro, in the quarter compared to the same quarter last year.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $6.1 million, or 31%, from $19.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2002 to
$25.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2003. This was mainly due to the weakness of the U.S. dollar, particularly against the euro, in the quarter compared to the same quarter
last year.

Earnings from Operations before Net Finance Costs

Earnings from operations decreased by $2.0 million, or 11%, from $17.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2002 to
$15.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2003. These results were impacted in the three months ended June 30, 2003 by the non-recurring events of the war in
Iraq and the SARS epidemic. Earnings from operations represent total revenue less depreciation and amortization, operating expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses.

Net Finance Costs

Net finance costs increased by $0.2 million, or 4%, from $4.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2002 to $4.7 million in the
three months ended June 30, 2003. OEH has benefited from the effect of lower interest rates, which has been offset by the increases in debt relating to capital expenditures and acquisitions in
2002 and 2003.

Taxes on Income

The provision for income taxes remained the same at $1.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the three months ended
June 30, 2002. The Company is incorporated in Bermuda, which does not impose an income tax. Accordingly, the entire income tax charge was attributable to income tax incurred by subsidiaries
operating in jurisdictions that impose an income tax.

Net Earnings

Net earnings decreased by $2.2 million, or 19%, from a profit of $11.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2002 to a profit of
$9.4 million in the three months ended June 30, 2003. Net earnings represent earnings from operations less net finance costs and provision for income taxes.

Outlook

In terms of forward bookings, customer reservation lead-time is still very short. For the third quarter of 2003, bookings are currently behind where
they stood at the same time last year. However, the owned hotels results should benefit in the third quarter from the strong euro, and managed and partly-owned hotels should benefit from the Ritz
Madrid acquisition. The trains and cruises segment is currently expected to have a difficult third quarter with bookings well down on the same time last year. Forward bookings of the hotels for the
fourth quarter of 2003 are currently ahead of where they stood at the same time last year.

Revenue

Total revenue, including earnings from unconsolidated companies, increased by $20.7 million, or 16%, from $132.8 million in the six months ended
June 30, 2002 to $153.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2003. Hotels and restaurants revenue increased by $18.9 million, or 17%, from $114.2 million in the
six months ended June 30, 2002 to $133.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2003, and tourist trains and cruises increased by $1.8 million, or 10%, from
$18.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 to $20.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003.

The
revenue increase for hotels and restaurants was due to a increase at OEH's owned hotels of $19.3 million, or 20%, from $98.6 million in the six months ended
June 30, 2002 to $117.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2003. Excluding the effect of acquisitions, the revenue increase was $12.9 million, or 13%, from
$98.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2002 to $111.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2003. Overall, OEH's same store RevPAR at its owned hotels increased
by 8% in U.S. dollars in the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2002. The revenue increase for hotel management interests was $1.0 million,
or 16%, from $6.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2002 to $7.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2003. The revenue decrease at OEH's restaurants was
$1.4 million, or 14%, from $9.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2002 to $8.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2003 which was mainly due to the '21'
Club.

The
change in revenue at owned hotels is analyzed on a regional basis as follows:

Europe.Revenue increased by $9.6 million, or 23%, from $41.4 million for the six months ended June 30,
2002 to $51.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003. The acquisition of La Residencia in Mallorca, Spain and Le Manoir aux Quat' Saisons in Oxfordshire, England, during the
first quarter of 2002 accounted for $1.8 million. Excluding the effect of these acquisitions, revenue increased by $7.8 million. Same Store RevPAR decreased by 7% in local currencies in
the six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2002. This translates to an increase of 14% in U.S. dollars as the euro was significantly stronger against
the U.S. dollar in the period compared to the comparable period in the prior year.

North America.Revenue increased by $6.1 million, or 20%, from $30.8 million in the six months ended
June 30, 2002 to $36.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2003. The acquisition of a 75% interest in Maroma Resort and Spa in Mexico accounted for $4.6 million.
Excluding the effect of this acquisition, revenue increased by $1.5 million. Same store RevPAR for the North American region decreased by 2% in the six months ended June 30, 2003
compared to the six months ended June 30, 2002.

Rest of the World.Revenue increased by $3.6 million, or 14%, from $26.4 million in the six months ended
June 30, 2002 to $30.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2003. The same store RevPAR for the rest of the world region decreased by 1% in local currencies in the six months
ended June 30, 2003 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2002 but, when translated to U.S. dollars, increased by 14% primarily as the South African rand was significantly stronger
against the U.S. dollar in the period over the comparable period in 2002.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization increased by $2.6 million, or 29%, from $9.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2002 to
$11.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2003, primarily due to the effect of acquisitions as well as the effect of the weakness of the U.S. dollar against currencies in which OEH
records some of its assets.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses increased by $13.2 million, or 22%, from $61.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2002 to $74.5 million in
the six months ended June 30, 2003. Excluding the effect of acquisitions, operating expenses increased by $10.6 million, which was mainly due to the weakness of the U.S. dollar in the
period compared to the prior year period.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $10.3 million, or 26%, from $38.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2002 to
$49.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2003. Excluding the effect of acquisitions, selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $8.9 million, which was mainly
due to the weakness of the U.S. dollar in the period compared to the prior year period.

Earnings from Operations

Earnings from operations decreased by $5.4 million, or 23%, from $23.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2002 to $17.8 million
in the six months ended June 30, 2003.

25

---

Net Finance Costs

Net finance costs increased by $0.3 million, or 3%, from $9.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2002 to $9.7 million in the six
months ended June 30, 2003.

Taxes on Income

The provision for income taxes decreased by $0.6 million, or 30%, from $1.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2002 to
$1.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2003. The decrease was mainly due to the reduced profitability of some of OEH's taxpaying subsidiaries.

Net Earnings

Net earnings decreased by $5.2 million, or 43%, from $12.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2002 to $6.8 million in the six
months ended June 30, 2003.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Working Capital

OEH had cash and cash equivalents of $17.8 million at June 30, 2003, $20.1 million less than the $37.9 million at December 31,
2002. At June 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002, the undrawn amounts available to OEH under its short-term lines of credit were $17.7 million and $22.8 million,
respectively. In addition, OEH has committed facilities undrawn of $87.0 million. Therefore, its total cash and availability at June 30, 2003 was $122.5 million including the
undrawn short-term lines and undrawn committed facilities.

Current
assets less current liabilities, including the current portion of long-term debt, resulted in a working capital deficit of $59.7 million at June 30,
2003, a decrease in the working capital of $32.5 million from a deficit of $27.2 million at December 31, 2002. The overall decrease in working capital was comprised of the
following:



OEH's
business does not require the maintenance of significant inventories or receivables and, therefore, working capital is not regarded as the most appropriate measure of liquidity.

Cash Flow

Operating Activities.Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $3.8 million to a $16.5 million
cash surplus for the six months ended June 30, 2003, from cash provided by operating activities of a surplus of $12.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002. Of the
increase, $9.0 million was mainly attributable to reduced working capital partly offset by reduced earnings of $5.2 million.

26

---

Investing Activities.Cash used in investing activities decreased by $0.5 million to $76.8 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2003, compared to $77.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002. The principal component of this decrease was a $0.3 million decrease in
expenditure on acquisitions and investments during the current period from $78.0 million to $77.7 million.

Financing Activities.Cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2003 was
$39.5 million, compared to cash provided by financing activities of $50.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002, a reduction of $10.5 million. In the six months
ended June 30, 2003, OEH had proceeds from borrowings under long-term debt of $54.3 million compared to proceeds of $49.9 million for the six months ended
June 30, 2002. The proceeds of long-term debt were used to fund acquisitions, investments and capital expenditures during the period.

Capital Commitments.There were $5.5 million of capital commitments outstanding as of June 30, 2003.

Indebtedness

At June 30, 2003, OEH had $519.8 million of long-term debt and capital lease obligations secured by assets ($502.0 million net of
cash), including the current portion, which is repayable over periods of one to 12 years with a weighted average interest rate of 4.29%. See Note 4 to the Financial Statements regarding
the maturity of long-term debt. See also Note 11 regarding a $154 million loan facility put in place in July 2003.

Approximately
45% of the outstanding principal was drawn in European euros and the balance primarily in U.S. dollars. At June 30, 2003, OEH had all its borrowings in floating
rates.

Liquidity

OEH plans to increase its capital expenditures over the next few years by the expansion of existing hotel properties and the acquisition of additional properties
consistent with its growth strategy. Expansions and capital improvements currently under consideration for 2004 and the rest of 2003 include the Ritz Hotel, Madrid, La Residencia, Maroma Resort and
Spa, Windsor Court, and Hotel Caruso. At June 30, 2003, OEH had capital commitments of $5.5 million overall relating to a number of projects.

OEH
expects to have available cash from operations and appropriate debt finance (including the new $154 million loan facility in July 2003) sufficient to fund its working
capital requirements, capital expenditures, acquisitions and debt service for the foreseeable future.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

OEH is exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. These exposures are monitored and managed as part of OEH's
overall risk management program, which recognizes the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to mitigate material adverse effects on consolidated earnings and cash flows. OEH does not hold
market rate sensitive financial instruments for trading purposes.

The
market risk relating to interest rates arises mainly from the financing activities of OEH. Earnings are affected by changes in interest rates on borrowings, principally based on U.S.
dollar LIBOR and EURIBOR, and on short-term cash investments. If interest rates increased by 10%, with all other variables held constant, annual net finance costs of OEH would have
increased by approximately $2.0 million based on borrowings at June 30, 2003. The interest rates on substantially all of OEH's long-term debt are adjusted regularly to
reflect current market rates. Accordingly, the carrying amounts approximate fair value.

The
market risk relating to foreign currencies and its effects have not changed materially during the first quarter of 2003 from those described in the Company's 2002
Form 10-K annual report.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

As of June 30, 2003, the Company's significant accounting policies and estimates, which are described in Notes 1, 4, and 14 to the financial statements in
the Company's 2002 Form 10-K annual report, have not changed from December 31, 2002, except for the adoption of the following pronouncements referred to in that report. On
January 1, 2003, the Company adopted the recognition provisions of FIN No. 45, Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, including Indirect Guarantees of
Indebtedness of Others, and SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. The adoption of the provisions of FIN No. 45 and SFAS No. 146 did not
have a material effect on OEH's consolidated financial statements.

In
addition, on April 30, 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 149, Amendment of Statement No. 133 on Derivatives Instruments and Hedging
Activities. The statement amends and clarifies accounting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities under SFAS
No. 133. This statement is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003, except as stated below, and for hedging relationships designated after June 30,
2003. The guidance should be applied prospectively. The provisions of this statement that relate to "Statement No. 133 Implementation Issues" that have been effective for fiscal quarters
beginning prior to June 15, 2003, should continue to be applied in accordance with the respective effective dates. In addition, certain provisions relating to forward purchases or sales of
when-issued securities that do not yet exist, should be applied to existing contracts as well as new contracts entered into after June 30, 2003. The Company is presently evaluating
this new statement but does not expect its adoption to have a material effect on OEH's financial condition or results of operations.

Finally,
in May 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equities,
which establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equities. SFAS No. 150 applies specifically to a number
of financial instruments that issuers have historically presented in their financial statements as equity, or between the liabilities and equity sections of the balance sheet, rather than as
liabilities. Generally, SFAS No. 150 is effective for financial instruments issued or modified after May 31, 2003 and is otherwise effective for interim periods beginning after June 15, 2003.
Management does not expect the adoption of this standard will have a material effect on OEH's financial condition or results of operations.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Form 10-K annual report.

DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company's chief executive and financial officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30,
2003 and found no material deficiencies or weaknesses.
