Which direction should this flooring go?

Hi everyone, I will be installing LVP flooring that is 9" x 72" size. It will be installed in the living room, kitchen/dining, hallway, and the four bedrooms. The front entrance door is in the bottom middle (to the left of the bay window).

I need help to figure out how to orient the flooring. Contractor suggested I do horizontal in living room and dining room/kitchen, then switch to vertical at the hallway, and have the bedrooms also be vertical.

Do you think this is the most optimal? I will have a transition strip right at the edge of the hallway... Or should I do all vertical? Or all horizontal? I'm not sure if the hallway looks strange with planks going the long way.

Thank you!
