I stayed in other Hotel 81 before so I knew what to expect when I decided to stay here. I arrived from Europe so after a long flight, surely would appreciate an early check-in but this thing rarely happen :) especially in Singapore. I have requested early check-in around 11.00 which is already 3 hours after my actual arrival time... More

Hotel 81 in Chinatown is okay for traveller who will not be staying too long inside the room. The room is so small but quite clean. Internet is free but no too strong when inside the room. Nice thing about this hotel is very near the subway just right across the street. Near to all attractions. Also near to malls... More

We booked this hotel the same day when we arrived in Singapore. We didnt search so much. They had vacancy so we took it. We stayed here for 4days. (mainly for location) Pros: Hotel is just across the MRT (Chinatown Station) easy access to sentosa.. orchard.. etc. Exactly in Chinatown (like a minute walk to where the restos are and... More

Location: Located at the heart of Chinatown, you can easily reach the hotel by bus or MRT. Very close to the shopping malls and just 5 minutes walk to Pagoda Street, the cheaper shopping center than the malls. Lobby: Just 2 tables and 2 chairs, I even can’t say it’s a lobby! So small! The receptionist is not friendly too,... More

I stayed here in August 2011, not 2012. I booked this hotel because it was cheap as I was travelling for a few months. I loved wandering around China Town. It was the last few days of my travels and it was a good place to be. The hotel isn't great, but it was fine for what I needed. There... More

We spent three nights at Hotel 81 China Town. It is in a great spot. Close to the CBD, China Town and the MRT. The staff were very helpful too. However, the rooms are quite smal and although there are windows in the rooms you can not actually open them. Still it is a pleasant place to stay in a... More

My friends from overseas stayed here for 2 nights. being a local, I will admit this Hotel is in a superb location. Great eats a few steps away, and the Chinatown MRT Station is just across the road. Rooms are miserably small though. Rooms with 2 single beds are relatively larger but has no windows!! In the end, the most... More

The room is so small, you cannot literally walk around the bed. No wardrobe in room. Shower without any curtains around, so the bath become... More
