Guest Ratings & Reviews
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel. The location is superb, facing a beautiful park and just a stone's throw away from the Dhoby Ghaut MRT station, making it incredibly convenient to explore Singapore. The rooms were cozy with a lovely view of the park, and the service was impeccable. The dining options were delicious, and the facilities exceeded my expectations. However, I found the price to be slightly on the higher side for the value offered.
The hotel offers a mixed experience with lovely views over Fort Canning Park from the rooms but conditions could be improved. The small bathrooms are a nice touch, however. The service is satisfactory with available dry cleaning, housekeeping, and laundry services. The location is excellent as it is situated right beside the Dhoby Ghaut MRT station, providing convenient access to various parts of Singapore. The dining options, albeit including light bites, may not meet everyone's expectations. Overall, the hotel provides a decent stay with some room for enhancement.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and well-equipped, but the dining experience was a bit lacking. The location was perfect for exploring the city, and the facilities were top-notch. The value for money was reasonable overall.
This hotel is a gem in the heart of Singapore! The rooms are cozy and offer a lovely view over Fort Canning Park. The service is top-notch, making you feel right at home. The location is unbeatable, with easy access to the MRT and Orchard shopping belt. Dining is included and of high quality, although the cold buffet dishes might not suit everyone's taste.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were in good condition and offered a lovely view over Fort Canning Park, but the small bathroom was in a bad state. The service was satisfactory with available dry cleaning, housekeeping, and laundry services. The location was convenient, right beside Dhoby Ghaut MRT station, facing a park on one side. Overall, the hotel has its ups and downs.
