Easy access to points of interests, away from hustle and bustle of city
Should display notice of availibilty of bus shuttle service
Easy access to points of interests, away from hustle and bustle of city. Good meeting plsce. Reception was accomodating when I request for exchange of twin bed to king bed. Really appreciate that room upgrade to Club type.
The bed was comfy. Room ambience and lightings are excellent. Building interior old charm is cleverly maintained.

staff efficient, rooms no problem
riverfront location a myth
Rooms good for the price, a 4 star hotel in reality. A free shuttle to malls and Orchard Road was handy to catch. Booking tours at the tour desk is convienient and reliable. We struggled to find the MRT but taxis were abundant. A walking distance mall with supermarket and ATMS was five minutes away, yet the hotel itself is along distance from any tourist attractions.
Restaurant Tip : Be specific when ordering food at the bar, staff bought us four plates of the same thing instead of two each.

The staffs response is good.
There is nothing around hotel.
Hotel itself is nothing to complain.
When it is compared with some hotels around there, the cost performance is better than others. The stsffs is good, and the room is also good. This time they gave me upgrade of the room. I will use this hotel again.

hotel looks recently refurbished
overall clean - nice atmosphere
hotel staff taking care of you
food okay
decent 4 star - good pricing
just a bit too far for a pleasant stroll to clark quay - because of humidity you better take a taxi
for this price, I had a nice stay
at arrival there was pleasant help from the staff
concierge and guest services work impecable
room was refurbished - not opulent but precisely what you expect for the price
the overall stay at the hotel was pleasant - good service at the bar, decent food .. the people really do their best for you
only minus was the fact that I had to pay for internet (5 Sin Dollars for 15 minutes) - that service nowadays is included in even more cheap places - just walk out to some terrace and you have free internet access
Travel tip : one shopping mall is close - for other shopping or sightseeing it is better to take a taxi - as singapore center is SMALL that will not cost a load of money - also trainstation nearby

Good size rooms, clean, nice lobby, very professional staff, good location.
It's always hard to make up my mind when choosing a hotel room on line, you never really know how the real thing is until you are physically there. Price is important but my comfort it is also.
This hotel it was not disappointing, starting from the good location only a 5 minutes away by taxi from Orchard Road and if you like walking also about 15 min walk from Robertson Quay and restaurant area.
The Lobby is very nice and the staff is very well trained and professional, the rooms are large, clean and comfortable.
It was not disappointing, very good value for the price in Singapore.

Located in an quiet place.There is a very large double bed in standard superior room which give me a sweet and comfortable sleep.Wherever I go in the hotel, the staff always greet to me with a smile.
It's better to have internet connection in each room. Therefore, I need not to go down to computer room for accessing to internet.
Whenever I come back from outside late at night, I find that the room is in a clean and tidy condition. I will give 100 mark to houskeeping staff of the hotel. Hair drier is placed inside a cabinet which enable me to dry my hair easily after bathing. And I can put all my valuable thing or doucment inside the safe when I go out.
Restaurant Tip : It's better to have dinner a little bit earlier in Singapore as most of the restaurant will close at 9:00pm or 10:00pm

not near any shopping centre, not good selection of food outlet. no cable vision in TV
the room is spacious, but renovation is a bit old. The TV is still the old monitor type and no cable vision. View outside of the the window is good as it is quite far from other building. Secelction of food outlet within the hotel is quite poor and the hotel is about 10 monutes walking distance from near by shopping centre.

Beautiful environment, colonial style fixtures. Efficient and friendly staff.
I am actually very happy with my stay (1st time) at Furama Riverfront. Although the location is not centered but there is a shopping mall called "The great world" within walking distance and you can do a bit shopping and there are some restaurants there too. The room is very nice and clean. It's been reconditioned very well. The staff are all nice and friendly. I will definitely stay there again.

location, room decor and comfort (upgraded)
charge a lot for internet - why?, bathroom little shabby, terrible quality coffee in room.
The upgraded room was fine although enamel chips on the bath and very basic toiletries in bathroom, it may seem trivial but the coffee supplied in the room was the absolute worst instant coffee I have ever tasted - staff were pretty good and helpful and the overall ambiance of the hotel is good as is its location.
Nightlife Tip : Clarke Quay very close as is China Town.

Near Orchard Road. Rooms are spacious. Also has a nice pool and dining area.
Furniture in the room was old.
This is a hotel that was refurbished sometime back. The room furniture and bathroom looked old. Still it has many of the basic amenities like cable/satellite TV, kettle, complimentary coffee & tea and an ironing board. Staff at the front desk were very helpful and checkout was fast and smooth.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : The hotel is near Orchard Road but I recommend catching a cab there instead of walking thirty or so minutes in the hot & humid weather.

The room was very well appointed and it was confortable.
There was some noise, this was indicated when I checked in due to the hotels commitment to improve the quality of service.
The prior reservation was already at the Reception and check-in was drama free and the staff was very helpful for any task that were put to them. Depending on your requirements you need to think about this when making your reservation, ie breakfast/no breakfast. Still overall great place, would stay again when I am downtown Singapore.

Very helpful staff. Good service and clean.
The room design is rather simple.
Overall, the hotel is great however there is nothing interesting around its vicinity. The closest MRT station, Outram Park is 15 minutes walking distance. Or perhaps Taxi would be a more convenient option.

Nearby is Clarke Quay. Five minute walk and a nice place to spend the evenings
Might do with some refurbishing!
Very close to a nice place to spend the evening, namely Clarke Quay. Staff is very friendly and helpful. The SPA is quite okay and they also offer (normal) massage in the room, which is very convenient. The swimming pool looks good, but unfortunately I could not try it out, due to bad weather during my stay.
Nightlife Tip : Walk 10 minutes to Clarke Quay where you find many pubs and restaurants.
