friendly staff,walking distance to MRT station,bugis street,comfort stay in Bencoolen for 2 nights
9.3
I had a business trip in Suntec Convention Centre. However I am staying solo.It is suitable either you are family,young couple or friend.Location is very good,5 min walking distance to bugis street,15 min walking distance to suntec city,2 min to MRT station,5 min to Orchard Road,for convenience stall,it is just within the hotel area.For hotel breakfast,it simple,not much choice,but taste well.From Bencoolen to Airport,you can take MRT or Bus,easier way will be talking bus as the bus stop just 1 min walking distance from hotel.Take No 36 bus direct to airport.Very convenience.
Overall, I have a wonderful 2 nights stay in bugis. Good recommended hotel as hotel come with gym and spa! You can enjoy there.I will return to this hotel again for my next business trip again!

Just passing through Singapore and my regular hotel was booked up. Bencoolen was a good choice - the room was quite even though the street is disrupted with subway construction. Easy walk to Bugis, Haji Lane etc

Staff, location and Staff

It was great and we really appreciated the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. The location was a half a block from public transportation, the hop-on-hop-off buses and the subway so you good get to anywhere in the city with ease.

Near hotel to Bugis Street and MRT
The location near by Bugis Street & Little India. You also can reach MRT only 10 minutes walking from here.

Overall if you are not staying all the time in room its okay to stay here.
It's near MRT Station Dhoby Ghout and Bugis.
But I do not like the air, not fresh, you can feel full of dust on the carpet.
And the elevator is also very slow.
Since there was a MRT development station in front of the hotel, so it is hard for you to reach taxi just near by the hotel when you arrive. If you bring many luggage, ask the taxi driver to bring you directly to the parking area of the hotel (it is located behind hotel).
Breakfast is also not convenient because it placed outside the hotel, exactly in front of the hotel or on the street where many people going around.
All i can tell, it's only good if you have no other option hotel to stay and you need a place near MRT. I hope this hotel can fixed the smell of the room so it will be freshen and not too smelly. Limited menus of breakfast.

Great Value and Excellent Location
Excellent location, comfortable room and courteous staff
9.3
Hotel Bencoolen is a small hotel located on Bencoolen St and just off Orchard Road. The rooms are clean and comfortable and comes with free wifi, which is very much appreciated by foreign tourists. The staff are courteous and friendly, and most willing to give local recommendations on food and shopping. If you are interested to browse for computers and electronics, Sim Lim Square is just a stone's throw away. The hotel also has indoor parking available at the rear though the number of lots is limited. A simple buffet breakfast is included with the room and overall, Hotel Bencoolen offers a comfortable stay, excellent location and great value for yr next holiday in Singapore.
