I chose this hotel near Chinatown, and it's super convenient with a subway station right downstairs. Chinatown itself is just about a ten-minute walk away. Plus, the famous Ya Kun Kaya Toast is also on the ground floor. They even have a gong-striking ceremony when you check in! I stayed for four days in total and was very satisfied overall. The infinity pool and gym on the 30th floor are absolutely stunning. You'll notice a lot of Western guests here. The breakfast is a standard English breakfast – not a huge variety, but it's very refined. The only thing is that the bed in the king room isn't very big, so if you're a family of three, it might be a bit cramped.

I stayed at the Alexandra Hotel on Alexandra Road in mid-May with my child for an exam in Singapore. The location is excellent, right next to IKEA, and you can even see The Interlace, Singapore's famous 'Jenga block' residential complex. There are plenty of dining options nearby, and public buses are readily available. The MRT is a bit of a walk, about twelve minutes. If you're going further than two kilometers, I'd recommend taking a taxi; Grab (Gao De) is usually the best option. The hotel's seventh floor houses the breakfast restaurant, gym, and swimming pool. The pool is fantastic – a much better experience than typical five-star hotel pools. The room had great soundproofing and effective air conditioning. They don't provide bottled water, but there's drinkable tap water. They offer two complimentary sachets of instant American coffee and tea bags. Additionally, toothbrushes (no toothpaste, you need to request it from the hotel), cotton swabs, and disposable slippers are provided. The overall service was superb, especially the lobby staff. HUNG, SIMIE, ALIF, and IRISH were all very nice and enthusiastic. HUNG, in particular, was incredibly helpful in communicating directions with our taxi driver. 👍 I highly recommend this hotel for your consideration.

1st time trying capsule hotel in singapore, it's cleaner than expected, and nice lobby ammenities. Hot water also available all time, with good water pressure too. No showerheas tho, only rainfall shower. My only problem is that it's hard for me to feel rested. Perhaps I am unlucky, my room single suit pod, that was assigned to me is different than ordered picture whereas it's ”open” on the end side, not the length side like in pics. Furthermore it's at the end of the hall so it felt a bit like suffocating coffin per se. Then on the matter of soundproofing.. very minimum. Earplug is provided, but it wont help with the bumps and vibrations of machines. My room is at the end of hall, and beside the utilities room perhaps? At 6am+ cleaning workers will start, and I can no longer rest in that state.. every sound vibration travels to that ”coffin” bed so yeah.. unless u can treat it as white noise, can easily wake one up. Overall it's worth the price and cleanliness, but next time I will definitely request a different room or ask actual photo of my assigned room first.

I recently stayed at ST Signature (Tanjong Pagar) in Singapore, which is a 'co-living hotel.' To be honest, I was a bit unsure at first, but it turned out to be a pleasant surprise! The whole check-in process is self-service; there's no traditional front desk, which felt a bit unusual at first. However, the upside is that it's super efficient, and arriving late at night wasn't an issue at all. The room is small, that's a fact, but the design is really smart, and they've made great use of the space. The bed is on the compact side, but for a solo traveler or a short stay, it's perfectly adequate. The best part is how clean it was – much better than I expected. The common areas are what really make this place stand out. They have a kitchen and shared spaces with a nice, relaxed vibe. It feels like a mix of 'light socializing and efficient accommodation.' It's perfect for those who don't want to be bothered but also don't want to stay in a completely isolated hotel. The location is a huge plus. Tanjong Pagar itself is incredibly convenient, with the subway, restaurants, and convenience stores all nearby. Getting to most parts of the city is quick and easy. To sum it up: 👉 If you're staying for a short period, traveling solo, or on a budget, this place is definitely worth considering. However, if you prioritize space and privacy, it might not be the best fit for you.

I recently stayed at Hotel Boss Singapore and had a pleasant experience overall. The hotel is conveniently located near Lavender MRT Station, making it easy to travel around the city and visit major attractions. The check-in process was smooth, and the staff were friendly and helpful throughout my stay. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. Although the room size was relatively compact, which is common in Singapore, it was equipped with all the essential amenities needed for a comfortable stay. The bed was cozy, and housekeeping did a good job keeping the room tidy each day.

Stayed here for 4 days with my family. They have triple room. They clean the room everyday. Great and friendly hotel staffs. There is water dispenser down the lobby so you wont need to buy everyday. The location of the hotel is quite far to train station but 2-3mon walk to bus station. The location is quote far from the city center but since accessible to bus station you can easily go to different places even at night time. If you are on a budget this is good option but if I will go back again, I’ll try to book near area that is lively.

Hotel location was good. Nearby eateries, 7/11 convinient store only 5 mins walk. Train station also nearby. However, hotel was kind of old. Got a room at the basement, network was so bad. Lucky thing there’s wifi. Wifi signal is strong. Since the stay was only for a night. It’s ok.
