The property is professionally managed like any hotel. The premises are neat & clean. The location is very near to Dhoubey Ghat MRT station and Singapore Plaza.
The sanitary fittings in the bathroom need maintenance or replacement. The faucet handles and paper roll flaps come out in your hand sometimes when using.

Generally the stay was comfortable. But the hotel a bit understaff probably due to the holidays and covid restrictions.

Pleasant Stay
It’s a family stay-cation for this trip since pandemic is still restricted to most of countries.
We were happy and really enjoy staying at the pool for swimming and water fun. Have a walk to the Fort Canning Park is pleasant.

The property was located close to two MTS stations which meant that all of Singapore was in walking distance. Their understated approach to customer service results in attention to detail and polite staff.

Nice hotel near the metro and buses. This is a fairly basic room with no frills. The breakfast buffet was fairly good especially when considering the price. Liked the park across the street.

The property was a very pleasant surprise. We liked both of our rooms which were on the 12th floor with spectacular views over Singapore and Fort Canning Park. The location made it simple to get to anywhere in Singapore either by MRT or bus. The staff were all very pleasant and helpful from the front desk right through to the restaurant. There is some mould in the bathrooms as mentioned in other reviews but it is hardly a major problem and I have seen far worse in much more expensive hotels. My only negative is the fact that there are a lot of school groups staying here which can make it noisy but this didn’t bother us in the room at all. Overall it was a very pleasant experience and I would definitely stay here again.

Convenient and very clean...
Very clean hotel in a good location. Large rooms. Great air conditioning. Hot water in shower is great but only temporary so don't take long showers. Only large towels provided so bring your own wash cloths. Cafe on first floor. Friendly and helpful staff. 5- minute walk to local transportation(MRT ).

Excellent location a 5 minute walk from major transit center, Dhoby Ghaut, with amply shopping and food. A short MRT ride to the beautiful downtown area. Room had gorgeous view overlooking Fort Canning. Rooms were clean and comfortable, if a bit spartan. Excellent value for money. Staff is friendly and accommodating.
Close to amenities and transportation very convenient. Train bus and grab

Good location, front office personal very kind and nice.
Rooms are very noisy (can literally hear everything from the other rooms and the corridor)
The security knocked our door at 00.00 when we were sleeping and then apologised because it was the wrong room. Very unprofessional.

L'avantage de cet hôtel est sa position. Il est à 7 mn de la station de métro dhobi ghaut et à 8 mn de la rue orchad road. Il se situe a côté d'un parc.
Plusieurs centres commerciaux autour.
Les chambres sont assez spacieuses pour singapour mais d'un état général vieillot.
Dans la chambre, le réfrigérateur ne fonctionnait pas. L'agent de maintenance a été appelé. Il lui a été indiqué que le réfrigérateur ne fonctionnait pas et celui-ci nous a mentionné qu'il revenait mais il est jamais revenu !!!!
Sinon dans l'ensemble l'hôtel est à recommander
Côté service,
