Maxwell Reserve Singapore, Autograph Collection
This hotel is perfectly located in the heart of Chinatown, making it incredibly convenient for exploring nearby attractions like Clarke Quay and Merlion Park—both are just a short walk away. Even with some construction work right outside, noise didn’t disturb my evening rest at all, thanks to excellent soundproofing. The interior design has a lovely vintage charm that gives the whole place a unique, cozy vibe. Rooms are clean, well-maintained, and equipped with modern amenities. Breakfast is served à la carte, and while not buffet-style, the variety and combination of dishes are thoughtful and satisfying. I especially enjoyed the afternoon tea and evening cocktail hour—simple but delightful, offering a perfect moment to unwind in such a warm, inviting atmosphere. The staff truly stand out: friendly, attentive, and many speak fluent Chinese, which made communication seamless. They even helped me book a ride and translated menu items at local restaurants. Overall, this is an exceptional value for the quality and service. I’d definitely stay here again on my next trip to Singapore.
Novotel Singapore on Kitchener
I stayed here during Singapore’s National Day celebration, and it just happened to coincide with the Formula 1 race — a great time to visit! With hotel prices across the city skyrocketing, this Novotel stood out as an excellent value choice. The location is fantastic — literally a short walk from the MRT station, making transfers to any part of Singapore super easy. I had zero issues communicating in English with the staff, which made everything smooth and stress-free. The room was clean, well-maintained, and equipped with all the essentials. Overall, the experience was top-notch — comfortable, convenient, and well-priced. Definitely recommend this hotel for future trips to Singapore!
Hotel Grand Pacific
The hotel's location is fantastic—so many attractions are just a short walk away. After arriving at the airport, taking bus 36 gets you right to the doorstep, and it’s only a quick, easy walk from there to the property. The room itself is clean and well-maintained, though the showerhead has extremely strong water pressure—be careful when turning it on! The towels are a bit worn and could use an update. That said, the staff at the front desk were incredibly helpful, offering to carry luggage with a genuine smile. Their warm hospitality really made the stay more enjoyable. Overall, this is a great value option in Singapore, combining convenience, comfort, and friendly service. I’d definitely book here again.

Staying at Dorsett Singapore was a great experience, especially given its prime location in Chinatown. The hotel is just steps away from the MRT station, making it super easy to get around the city or head to the airport without hassle. The recent refurbishment gives the property a fresh, modern feel while still keeping some of its classic charm. My room had an excellent view of the city skyline—perfect for relaxing after a busy day. The staff, particularly at the front desk, were incredibly friendly and efficient, always ready to help. While cleanliness could be slightly improved in certain areas, the overall service and convenience more than make up for it. A solid choice for travelers looking for comfort and accessibility in Singapore.

Village Hotel Bugis by Far East Hospitality
The overall experience was excellent! The hotel’s location is unbeatable—just a short walk to the MRT station, with a 7-Eleven right across the street and shopping malls and local markets all within walking distance. It made daily life so convenient. The room was cleaned every day, and it stayed spotless and comfortable throughout our stay. I especially appreciated the pre-check-in option—it allowed us to breeze through check-in late at night without any hassle. The only minor hiccup was that I initially thought the lobby was on the ground floor, but it's actually on the third floor, so I had to call reception for clarification. Not a big deal though. I didn’t take photos inside the room, but the view from the window was absolutely stunning—great cityscape and plenty of natural light. For the price, this place offers amazing value. I’d definitely come back and recommend it to anyone visiting Singapore.

Staying at Hotel Nuve Urbane Singapore was a delightful experience overall. The hotel is spotless and well-maintained, with a welcoming atmosphere right from the moment you walk in—especially loved the complimentary snacks in the lobby. The best part? Stepping out onto the balcony to see the pool directly in front of us. My kids were thrilled and spent hours enjoying the water. The location is also very convenient for getting around Singapore, with easy access to public transit. The staff were attentive and friendly, always ready to help. It’s a great value for the quality, and I’d definitely recommend it and consider returning.

Absolutely exceeded my expectations! Located in the East Coast area, this hotel sits in a mature, vibrant neighborhood just steps away from East Coast Park. It’s got a much more authentic local feel than the bustling city center, yet getting to major attractions is super convenient—just 15 to 20 minutes by bus. The value for money is outstanding, and the staff went above and beyond by upgrading me to a double room without any extra charge.
