We stayed there for 2 nights. I noticed that the room was rather small but for a 2-night stay and for 2 persons it was manageable. No wardrobe. Sink is very small. No shampoo was provided, soaps were small and smelled nothing. Kettle is provided but no iron is supplied. No slippers. Bed was ok, pillows were nice. Only one... More

If you are a couple then it is not very good place to stay. Personally we didnt stay there but while on the trip we went to the Hotel as some of our Friend Couples were staying in the Hotel. Little India area is very crowded place specially with people of asian origin. If you have good budget then try... More

We stayed 1 night at the Cultural Hotel (previously known as Citihub) and it was okay for an overnight stay. Paid S$140 which is overpriced for what you get, but Singapore is expensive and I found there is a huge difference in the 2 star hotel chains where you pay half the price and the 3+ star hotels so this...

I have stayed in Citihub Singapore last October when i went with my family, The room is really clean and the location is really good. You have lots of restaurants at little india. But the complimentary break fast is poor. Despite all Indian customers, they provide more chinese stuff..Also the quality of food is not that great. The staff is... More

Singapore is an expensive place but seriously...this hotel is sooo over priced for the shoe box that you get. Rooms are super small with no view or character at all. The WIFI never worked and the staff kept saying they would get someone to fix it but never did. The baby cot they provided was just a wooden gate surrounding... More

The staffs are very unfriendly and rude. The rooms were very small and leaking. Not advisable for family with children. The breakfast was terrible.

We found the reception staff to be very helpful and courteous. They moved rooms around initially so we could check in early (10.30am) and seemed very helpful. The bed, pillows and linen were SO comfortable we had the best nights (5) sleep we could've hoped for. Breakfast was a mix between Asian and Indian food which for us was a... More

stayed only 01 night but it was bad dream for us, we carry our luggages to room upon check-in, because nobody was there. they give only 1 door key, nobody can go out if your partner is sleeping. you have to go other building for breakfast. location is isolated.
