“Great hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 February 2012
1
person found this review helpful

We stayed here for 4 nights in August 2011 and I really enjoyed it. After reading reviews I was expecting pretty worn room but it was nice just like in the pictures in hotel website. It was very clean and there was the best bed I ever slept in! One of the reasons I booked this hotel instead some newer ones at the Clarke Quay was the size of the rooms as they are spacious and have balcony. Lobby is not as comfortable as in many good hotels but it was functional and never too crowded.

Hotel was full and everything was working smoothly. The service and staff were great, maybe the consierge was their weakest link. The location is good next to Raffles Hotel, Robinson's Mall, Funan Digitalife mall, the City Hall MRT station and hop-on –hop-off bus-stops. However there are many good locations in Singapore and since we used taxi a lot we could have enjoyed other locations as well. Taxis were easy and cheap and there were always taxis waiting. I would stay here again because of the bed, atmosphere and service.

“Room, location, view and services all excellent”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 February 2012

Spent three nights at the hotel. Arriving very early (having to get off a cruise ship after an early breakfast) we were told our room wasn't ready, but for an extra $30 we could have an upgrade. We jumped at the offer and were very please we did. The room had a magnificent view to the casino and the harbour. It is well located with the shopping mall and station underground, and easy access to most points of interest. The room, including the modern and well appointed bathroom were appreciated; the beds were comfortable and the nespresso machine keenly used (housekeeping staff were happy to provide the extra coffee modules). It is a really good hotel; the reception staff are helpful, and we would be happy to stay here on any visit to Singapore.

“Delightful Stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 February 2012

We booked into the Fairmont in Singapore for 2 nights prior to departing onto a cruise with Royal Caribbean.

Have to say this hotel is one of the best we have stayed in, from being greeted at the front entrance to our departure the service could not be faulted. Fantastic rooms we allocated, and even a birthday cake was left out on the first evening as we had mentioned that we were in Singapore for a birthday celebration. Beds were turned down both nights, and oh, the beds were so comfortable.

Only draw back was that we did not opt for a bed and breakfast rate, which in future we would do, however, there is a huge shopping mall located underneath the hotel with plenty of places to eat.

Perfectly located for all the main attractions and just across the road from Raffles for when you visit the Long Bar for your Singapore Sling.

Could not fault this hotel, we joined the Fairmont membership club prior to leaving which we would recommend you do. Will certainly look for a Fairmont brand in the future when travelling. Excellent stay.

Room Tip: Join the Fairmont club and e-mail the hotel prior to your stay for any special requests

“Nothing to complain about, an amazingly solid stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 February 2012
2
people found this review helpful

This hotel has a knack of being solid without spectacular. It has very competitive rates for the Singapore CBD, especially when you factor in the convenient location directly above the City Hall MRT station. We were upgraded because of no available rooms with a double bed at the level at which we booked. The room we stayed in was large, with half of it dedicated to a fully featured bathroom. The bed was amazingly comfortable and the room was fitted out very modernly (electric curtains, lights all controlled from the bedside tables, etc).

Overall it was a very comfortable stay but lacked that certain something to make it a truly memorable stay - the hotel is really indistinguishable from any other moderately high end hotel. We'll definitely stay there again though.
