Dao by Dorsett AMTD Singapore
I brought a close friend through a tough time for a quick getaway and requested a quiet room in advance—thankfully, the hotel was incredibly accommodating. Not only did they assign us a peaceful room, but they also surprised my friend with a thoughtful little gesture to lift their spirits.
