I went to the botanical garden because it's collaborating with Jurassic World for a limited time. The dome is shaped like a tower, so you can see the dinosaurs from both below and above, and there's also a play area inside, making it highly recommended for families with children. At night, the tree lights up and there's a show, so I think you can enjoy it no matter what time you go.

The location is excellent, right on Orchard Road. There's a bus stop directly outside, and the MRT is less than a 5-minute walk away. It's surrounded by large shopping malls, with ION diagonally opposite and Watsons right across the street, where you can buy medicine.

It's super convenient to get to all the major attractions, and there's even an affordable supermarket opposite. The hotel facilities are great, it's very clean, and the environment is five-star, plus it offers excellent value for money. Prices were very friendly during the off-peak season!

Marina Bay Singapore|1.34km from city center
This was by far the best hotel of the trip! First, let's talk about the location. We booked a bay view room and it was absolutely stunning. The air conditioning was the only one in all the hotels we stayed at that we could actually turn off, which was great because I get cold easily (thumbs up!). Downstairs, in the Funan mall's basement two, the food court is fantastic. The bitter gourd fish slice noodles, roasted chicken rice, and Japanese bento boxes were all incredibly delicious and affordable. The only minor drawback is that the pool closes at 9 PM, which feels a bit early. The hotel is conveniently located near the National Gallery and has a park and Old Hill Street behind it. Highly recommend it, and no, I'm not a shill!

My kid's favourite hotel for staycation! Receive a complimentary upgrade n it fits us family of 4 perfectly! And just outside their level 1 cafe, there is a 24/7 halal hotfood vending machine. On top of that, the pool is perfect for kids. They have big pool n jacuzzi for 0.85m children. Corridor smells awesomely good, n their shampoo soap the bomb! Downside, if only their breakfast buffet spread is halal concept n took out the bacon n ham slices, I'm sure u will attract a lot more visitors. For everything else, I'll give a 10/10

Singapore River Singapore|1.87km from city center
We could not use the machine for self check-in because their system could not find our booking on trip.com, so a staff member had to manually check in for us. Excellent facilities - they provided lots of trolleys for luggages near the front door/reception area, which I think were quite thoughtful. Our kids used the playground a lot. Would love to use the swimming pool but our room (Studio Queen and Single) was quite small (especially the bathoom) to hang our swim clothes to dry. Coat hangers were provided in the room which could be used to hang swimclothes on to airdry, but with the humidity in Singapore, it would take about 2 days to completely dry. In the middle of our stay, we found a dead cockroach on the bed (first photo) while clearing stuff to prep the room for daily room service/cleaning. We left it there for the cleaner to handle it, but when we came back at night, the dead cockroach was still in the room (and moved to a different spot this time - second photo), so we cleaned it ourselves. Not that we are nitpicking, but since the room was small, we had to organise our things around every nook and cranny of the room, and I found the wall under the table near the floor quite dirty.

Price is reasonable being in Sentosa beach front. Though one of the older resorts, it is still enjoyable. Photos show views from the top looking down at the pool below and the sea in front. The pool is big and beautiful with nature, trees and vegetation surrounding it. There's a slightly warm water jacuzzi ( but bubbling function not working?) and children enjoy playing or adults soaking there.

Good location! MRT Orchard Boulevard is literally right beside the hotel and ION Orchard mall is just 15 mins via walking. It’s also connected to Tanglin mall where there’s lots of food options and shops available. The bathroom is clean, room is spacious for 2 people, and hotel service is great. The front desk is very accommodating and even helped us book services for when we need it. Will definitely go back here!

The hotel's location is great, and the price is reasonable. Plus, there's a pool, it's very close to the subway station, and there's a 7-Eleven right downstairs! 🤞👍

Harbourfront Singapore|3.39km from city center
Travelodge Harbourfront is a practical option for travelers who value location and affordability. The room is admittedly quite small, but it works well for business stays or trips where you do not plan to spend much time indoors. The shower had strong water pressure, which was a nice plus, and the bed was comfortable enough for a good rest after a long day out. Breakfast could definitely be improved. The selection felt limited and leaned heavily toward less healthy processed items such as sausages. On one occasion, the fried chicken was also undercooked, which was disappointing. Overall, if you need convenient access to Sentosa and are traveling on a budget, this is still a good and convenient place to stay.

Stayed for two nights in Singapore. The bed sheets and duvet covers were quite clean; I didn't even need to use my disposable bedding. Overall, it was great, and the front desk service was excellent. Good value for money. I think I'll stay here again next time I visit, as it's very close to the MRT station, which is super convenient. A big thank you to all the staff at the hotel. Everything was perfect, except for the room being a bit small, making it difficult to open my suitcase.

The room size was decent, and the view from the window was okay, looking out onto the hotel's pool. The hotel's location is convenient, not far from Merlion Park, and transportation is easily accessible. We didn't try the hotel breakfast because we wanted to experience local specialty restaurants. One minor issue was the toilet seat in the bathroom – it lacked a soft-close mechanism, so it made a loud noise when lowered, requiring you to hold it down manually.

Bugis Singapore|2.46km from city center
Stayed at this hotel for 2 nights and had a very pleasant experience overall. The location is excellent, within walking distance to Bugis, Haji Lane and several MRT stations, which made getting around the city very convenient. The hotel itself has a modern, clean feel with a nice balance of comfort and style. The service was another highlight. Staff were friendly, professional, and always willing to help, whether it was check-in, directions, or general requests. It made the stay feel smooth and welcoming. I also enjoyed the facilities, especially the pool area and gym, which were well-kept and relaxing after a day out in the city. Overall, I would definitely recommend this hotel for both leisure and business travelers looking for a comfortable stay in a great location. I’d be happy to return on my next trip to Singapore.

Marina Bay Singapore|1.47km from city center
I stayed at PARKROYAL COLLECTION Marina Bay during a solo business trip to Singapore, mainly because I had meetings near Marina Bay Sands. The hotel checked many boxes for me, especially its convenient location, Halal certified breakfast buffet and walking distance access to train stations. The reception area on Level 4 immediately left a strong impression. The interior is beautiful and filled with greenery, somewhat reminding me of Gardens by the Bay. It feels modern, relaxing and very photogenic / Instagrammable at the same time. I appreciated the convenience of online check in and check out. During check in, I was assisted by Yarik, who was extremely friendly and welcoming. He thoughtfully gave me a room facing Marina Bay Sands, which I truly appreciated. Thank you again, Yarik. The room itself was spacious for a solo traveller. Everything was very clean, and I really enjoyed the bathtub and toiletries provided. Another thing I loved was the coffee selection in the room. There were different coffee strengths available, from mild to very strong, which was perfect for someone like me who enjoys coffee a lot. I visited the hotel gym as well. It is not huge, but good enough for a basic workout. Since I am an Anytime Fitness (AF) member, I also walked to the nearby Suntec City AF branch, which was very convenient from the hotel. The location is excellent. Promenade MRT Station and Esplanade MRT Station are both within about five minutes’ walk, and the Merlion Park area is nearby too, making it easy for me to go jogging. Breakfast was fantastic with many choices. I especially loved the blended juice with ginger and cinnamon. On checkout day, although my late checkout request was initially declined by Lydia at the reception counter because the hotel was full, the team later managed to accommodate my request after I explained my situation. Thanks as well to Yi Quan for assisting during checkout. Overall, this hotel was amazing. I genuinely enjoyed the stay, especially the thoughtful service and the Halal certified breakfast buffet.

Marina Bay Singapore|1.58km from city center
The hotel's location is indeed good, but it's not very Mandarin-friendly; few staff speak it, so we didn't really experience much service. The room size is quite reasonable, and I didn't try the breakfast, so no comment there. The pool is great; it's mostly shaded in the morning. There were quite a few downsides though. I had requested a room away from the elevator, but when I checked in at 5 PM, I was told the only available room was right by the elevator, or I'd have to wait another hour. I don't really understand why; I paid a lot of money just to sleep. If I had arrived early, fair enough, but checking in after 5 PM and still getting that situation felt like I had no priority whatsoever. I'm not sure what kind of room was above me, but it definitely didn't sound like someone was living there. There were constant banging noises and things being moved around, even at 3 AM.

Lavender Singapore|3.73km from city center
The room was nice and the surrounding area was very quiet! I stayed for several days, and on some of those days, my neighbors were Indian or Malaysian families with kids who made a lot of noise late into the night and started up again very early in the morning. However, the bedding was clean and comfortable, and the room design was sensible, making it look very tidy. Overall, it was a good check-in experience, though the check-out time of 12 PM was strictly enforced!

Geylang Singapore|4.46km from city center
This is definitely bang for the buck than other hotels in Singapore. The location is not that far from bus stations and Kallang station MRT. Since I love walking, it was not really a big deal for me to walk for 10mins or less. It is also located in Geylang, so it’s very quiet. My mom and I were able to sleep well. Amenities is spot on, very clean and secured. Even the front desk staff were very helpful during our stay. Would definitely consider staying here again if we visit Singapore in the future. Highly recommended!

Singapore Changi Airport Region Singapore|17.83km from city center
✈️Since I had an early flight at 7 AM, I opted for an airport hotel for my last night in Singapore instead of staying downtown. 😂When I booked, I saw the room pictures and size, and I just thought it was pathetically small. But I figured it was just for one night, so I'd make do. Price-wise, at around 1000 RMB, it's definitely not good value for money. Its only advantage is convenience, being close to the airport terminal. You walk out the door and can see Changi Airport's grand waterfall. 🤓The front desk staff were very enthusiastic. Entering the guest room area, there wasn't the usual hustle and bustle I'd imagined. It was huge inside, with many rooms, like a maze. Overall, it felt very quiet, and the carpet had excellent soundproofing. Pushing luggage wasn't a struggle at all. 🤪Opening the room door, even though I was mentally prepared, I still exclaimed, ”It's so small!” The bed was right there as soon as you opened the door, and there was even that strange pink lighting reminiscent of old-school street hair salons. 🛏️The bed is electric and can be raised, which is convenient for watching TV. There are foldable tables and chairs by the bed, saving a lot of space. 😜The living space saved was all given to the bathroom. The sink, toilet, and shower cubicle were all lined up, achieving a good wet/dry separation. Many hotels in Hong Kong are also small but can't manage this kind of wet/dry separation; they could learn a thing or two. 🥰The stay experience was also good. The mattress was a little soft, but the support was sufficient. The soundproofing was also excellent; I barely heard any other noise, which is a big plus. 🤣After all that praise, let's talk about the downsides. Check-in time is 6 PM, which is quite late, and early check-in isn't an option. Check-out time is 9 AM, so sleeping in is impossible. Luckily, I had to leave at 5 AM, so I didn't have that problem. Also, the room's AC temperature is restricted to 21 to 24℃. Even set to 24℃ with the fan on the lowest setting, it still felt very cold, and the duvet was very thin. Since there are no windows, I was afraid it would get stuffy if I turned it off, so I just had to wear more clothes. 🥳Overall, the hotel room design is very smart. Although small, it doesn't significantly impact short stays. If you have higher demands for your living experience, you might want to consider the other Crowne Plaza.

The hairdryer had a UK plug, but the bathroom outlets weren't compatible. The tissues provided were extremely thin. Otherwise, everything was decent. The hotel facilities are a bit dated, but still fine. The hot water was excellent, perfect for both showering and taking a bath.
