I don't generally write reviews but in response to some pretty dull reviews being given by residents/guests I feel I need to jump to GW defence. I have lived in Singapore now for just over 10 years and had on 2 occasions stayed at GW serviced apartments, each of which amounted to approx. 2 years per stay. In that time... More

I stayed in Great World apartments for over a year to September 2011- and was very comfortable.The amenities are excellent with a full sized swimming pool and good gym, as well as saunas, jacuzzi - and outdoor courts. Best of all was the access to the shopping mall and cinema - very handy when the rainy season starts and you... More

My husband and I just moved to Singapore last week with our two cats and are staying at Great World for the first month. This place has it's pros and cons, but all in all it's a comfortable start to life here, mainly because of the easy location and well equipped room. We stayed in a Deluxe room. Tips: 1.... More

This place was a real disappointment. We have stayed in so many service apartments. It was averagely maintained and averagely cleaned. If we needed clean towels they counted the dirty ones before giving new ones, if we needed more toilet paper because were were completely out, they gave us 1 roll (for 5 people). They did a FULL inventory before... More

My husband and I moved back to Singapore and stayed at Great World Serviced Apartments as an interim accommodation for 7 months from July 2011 to Feb 2012 in a 2-Bedroom Deluxe apartment. There are several great points to this place but mostly we were disappointed and glad to have finally moved out. The Apartment: Very well equipped with necessities,... More

Like so many others, we stayed here for a month while in the process of moving to Singapore. It is a great way to land; good apartments with great service, nice pools, connected to a great shopping mall. Transport easy and a good location - highly recommended for a short term stay while moving to Singapore.
