Rooms were basic but large, beds were comfortable, bathroom dated, close to MRT, wifi worked fine and as we had two devices they gave us two vouchers each day:-) Pool is very clean and large, aircon worked...we had no issues at all......for the price a good cheap choice for Singapore

We stayed several days at this Tristar 81 chain. It was adequate and clean, airconditioning was fine and not noisy and although dated, the room could be darkened at night and it was not a noisy location so we slept well. Great to have free internet access. We were grateful for the quiet room upstairs away from traffic noise yet... More

Even if situated on a "pub and love streets" location, the hotel is very quite and it's not used as sex hotel. Room are really very big and quite clean. Near the metro stop and the shopping area. Swimming pool is very nice. Free wifi. Nothing special but clean and very good price compeared to Singapore standard.

Rooms are basic, dated and uncared for. Beds changed daily and towels, but nothing else unless you ask reception. For example, loo rolls, tea and coffee. Internet is free but you have to ask for a voucher each day and you can only connect one device at a time. Aircon works, but only just. Room is cooler than outside humidity,... More

We'd booked one night in a family room at Hotel 81 Tristar on our way back from Thailand. We'd previously stayed at Hotel 81 Dickson so were expecting it to be about the same. Tristar was much better with very large rooms, great location (numerous food courts and shops nearby & not too far from the airport) and the swimming... More

Stayed three nights in November, 2011. First the good. Close to the MRT, eating places (mostly Muslim) and area seemed fairly safe for families. The not so good. All the windows were riveted closed. Actually had a strip of steel across the centers on all windows including the bathroom and they were riveted not screwed together. The only way out... More

We stayed here in September 2009, as a layover stop on way from NZ to UK. Two nights on way out, one night on way back. Good cheap accommodations. Bit noisy on the first stay as there were loud street markets in the area. Return visit three weeks later much quieter as markets were gone. Overall decent as a place... More

I was wondering about the Hotel 81 chain. But Tristar turned out to be a big surprise. I booked from the hotel website on the net. I travelled with my family (wife and two daughters and my parents) in November 2010 and stayed here for 5 days. We had booked a double room and one family room and the room... More

My friend and I looked for a cheap place to stay in Singpore. In my opinion you definitely get what you pay for with this hotel. The room didnt look like it had been cleaned (just a newly made twin bed) which suprised me as I was told how clean Singapore as a city was. There were people in the... More
