Mandarin Oriental Hotels in Singapore

Overall, the stay was excellent. The hotel is completely non-smoking, and the bedding and room had no odors whatsoever, which was a huge plus. The room was meticulously cleaned. The housekeeper on our floor was Chinese, which made communication very easy. The soundproofing in the room was good, and it was very quiet at night. The mattress and pillows were comfortable. The TV had Chinese channels, which was a nice touch for Chinese guests. The service was very thoughtful; noticing we drank a lot of water, they proactively replenished extra bottled water for us in the following days. They also noticed we wore glasses and brought us lens cleaning cloths. A large proportion of the staff spoke Chinese, so there were no communication barriers. The breakfast selection wasn't overly extensive but was decent, and most requests were accommodated. I needed to monitor my blood sugar, and after informing the server, they prepared a sugar-free overnight oats option for me the very next day. My only minor complaints are that the hairdryer in the room was a bit heavy and the airflow wasn't very strong; I hope they can replace it with a lighter, more powerful model. The complimentary body lotion was a bit hard to spread and absorbed slowly. Overall, the excellent service added a lot to our experience, and we had a very comfortable stay.
