Clean spacious rooms, attentive staff, great dining I am a repeat customer of the Fullerton and always enjoy it. One of the special features is their cuisine--you don't have to leave the hotel to eat well. There are many options, but here are two. Jade restaurant has a special Peking Duck menu that is hard to beat and not expensive. Be sure to try it. The new Lighthouse restaurant on the roof serves excellent Italian cuisine in a very attractive ambiance.

1. As soon as you enter the place you feel very comfortable.
2. Great hospitability
3. Personalized service with people around having yes written all over their face
4. Well maintained
5. Location is in the hear of the historic part of Singapore also being close to Boat Quey and Clarke Quey, it is just great place to be around for your evening outs 1. Swimming pool is functional as also the gym. Good only for relaxation.
2. Does not really advertise so much of the spa and does not seem to be that hi-fi. Not that I am an ardent traveller but I felt very comfortable once stepped into the hotel. The MRT is just round the corner and really its a boon specially if you have move aroud the city. The shopping malls are just a few blocks away as also the Suntec City. One can even walk around if its not too hot or raining.

This hotel has a really nice design, you can see it from afar and it shows how it's unique from the surrounding buildings. It's located next to the river and night life is only a walking distance away. the room has no luggage table, only a portable luggage stand, which is very flimsy. I stayed at level two of this hotel and the room overlooked the river with a balcony that is 2 storeys high, separated only by the hotel's big pillars, which is very beautiful when used as a background for taking pictures. One thing that I need to point out: when arrived at the hotel, the receptionist was not very polite with unfriendly tone, I don't know if it was her mood or because I was only wearing shorts, polo shirt, and a pair of sandals. Whatever the reason, I was very offended at the time, but quickly soothed when another receptionist took over.

Fancy hotel, good food, wonderful look at the Singapore River (Boat Quay), close to shopping center (Raffles City Mall, Suntec City), nice pool area, very quiet. Very high price (although one can get a nice deal through Agoda.com) My wife and I had a great time at this hotel. The room is absolutely great, big, clean with modern accessories (coffee machine, refrigerator, LCD-TV). The bathroom has bath and shower and looks great. We got a non-smoking room. There are several services offered for reasonable prices.
Hotel Feature Tip : There is a good italian restaurant at the top of the hotel, called Lighthouse. Good italian food, but quite expensive.

Fitness room, location, bathrooms need small champagne bottle in minibar. small rooms Good hotel, good value for discounted rooms through agoda. Otherwise overpriced. Very good Sunday brunch.
Restaurant Tip : Very good North Indian restaurant on Boat Quay, same side as hotel. It is past the Chinese seafood restaurants with the very annoying workers trying to get you to eat there.

location, building, staff, cuisine are all great! Internet is too expensive I always like to stay at the fullerton, and if you book through Agoda, the price is pretty good for a hotel of this class. I have stayed here several times and always a good experience,
Hotel Feature Tip : Go to Starbucks for free internet rather than paying the high price in the hotel

beautiful building with matching interiors and architecture. well furnished room just right with no unnecessary bulky furniture. Great staff, service and fine outlets for dining. Great view of the ocean. rather congested at the drive way approach to the entrance. Drop of guest or waiting for vehicle is rather inconvenient as guest waiting to be picked up have no place to wait as the congestion at driveway approach is uncertain. very hot at the walkway from Hotel to the car park or the sea front as the air condition does not work. Location of the Fullerton is fantastic. our room and our travelling companion's rooms are spacious, just furnished right with everything in place, in our case excellent view of the water front and concert hall. Fantastic service at the entrance and lobby coffee lounge, courteous front desk, impressionable decor and architecture considering it was 80 years ago this building was constructed. so near the waters at front and just behind is the singapore river.
Travel tip : a short walk under passage from hotel takes you to a scenic view of the ocean and lights of singapore. Go round the back and you will end up at the famous Boat Quay a full array of dining experience along the singapore river, the early life line of Singapore

excellent location, first rate service, large attractive room, good dining alternatives and over-all first class hotel. This is a return stay because we so enjoyed our first stay Internet charges are far too expensive The Fullerton Hotel is in a beautiful building that was once a post office, and has wonderful architectural features that make it a perfect hotel building. The service is first-rate, the staff friendly, the food excellent. This is surely the place to stay in Singapore!
Travel tip : If you want to use the internet, there is an underground passage to 1 Fullerton place, where there is a Starbucks that can provide free internet access

Beautiful old building, exquisitely restored. Helpful Staff, spacious rooms and fine cuisine The fullerton is clearly the best hotel in Singapore. Through Agoda, one can get the rooms at a reasonable price and good value for the money. The location is ideal, the service excellent, and there is a choice of several good restaurants in the building. I would certainly recommend staying here!
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : Don't be afraid to use the underground (subway) system. It is easy to use, fast, clean and efficient and there are signs in english for everything.

the staff service was great and it was great that the morning buffet was included. Location was fantastic, it was right in front of the famous Merlion.
I liked the buffet service in the morning which was included to the hotel price, however it would be nicer if there are more selection of Singapore/locale dishes.
Overall, the service was great, and I would choose this hotel for the next stay.

Location , location , location . Club lounge needs to be more secluded and exculsive This is a very grand hotel in a excellent location within singapore city centre,the building was the old post office & has converted to very eyecatching destinctive high end hotel.
The hotel's location is within very easy access to all sightseeing sights and boat & clarke quay entertainment areas.
On arrival we got upgrade to a club floor suite as our choosen room was not available. The suite are very large and spacious with all mod-cons including an excellent expresso pod coffee maker.
My only reservation if i am being completely picky was the club floor lounge should have been a little more exclusive and that the staff on the drinks and food secton needed to be more attentive and chatty , (using customers names would be a nice touch & remembering what they drink)
But overall a lovely hotel especially for the price paid through agoda website , would definatley recommend this hotel.
Restaurant Tip : Try Quayside seafood restaurant on clarke quay , try the mud crab ( a little messy but gorgeous) and live prawns. very reasonable price for great meal.

Location, service, incredible property. This hotel would be my top recommendation for anyone staying in Singapore. The property is absolutely beautiful and in great condition throughout, has a prime location on the side of the Singapore river (which is perfect for drinks/dinner alfresco) and the service, accommodations and food are second to none. The hotel buffet (breakfast, dinner and lunch) is superb and the Sunday brunch buffet is one of the best that I've had in Singapore.
Ignore what you may read about the pool being small - it's 25m x 10m, so whilst not quite a water park, it is perfect for swimming lengths or just having a dip in the sunshine. Plus I reckon that it's got one of the finest views in Singapore (looking over the Singapore River into the CBD and Colonial District).
I don't think I'll stay anywhere else in Singapore after this.
Restaurant Tip : Be sure to ask for a table by the river - sure it's warm but there are fans outside and you'll have one of the best views in Singapore.

Great Service. Friendly staff
Great swimming pool
Very clean Breakfast spread could undergo a review.
Food ran out very fast and i think the staff had some trouble topping up. Checked in for the holiday weekend. It was a wonderful stay and i had a great time. The room was spacious and clean.
The pool was the highlight of the stay as it's a great place to just unwind and let the world pass you by. It's a great place for young couples or dating couples.
