We enjoyed Mandarin Orchard’s central location and the view from our large and well appointed room. Excellent breakfast, choice of restaurants and an outside pool relaxation area. On either side of the hotel there is a MRT station for easy navigation of the city. We visited major museums, galleries, the Botanical Gardens and Orchid Garden and enjoyed a very quiet boa...

We booked through Agoda site for family of 4 with breakfast included, booking was accepted but when we received the voucher it stated breakfast only for 3 & 3 beds which was misleading came as a shock to us, at the hotel staff were friendly and helpful we upgraded to deluxe room which offered 2 Double beds, breakfast was excellent, the stay was nice and location of the...

This hotel is in the best location if you want to be near Orchard Road. It was right in the middle of orchard road but slightly further back so its away from the noisy busy streets of orchard road. Right in front of the hotel is a great little side street which is open all day and all night serving fresh seafood, satay skewers, hainan chicken rice and a lot of other ...

i choose this hotel mainly because its location – nearby orchid road and close to mrt station. just 5 minutes by walk you can arrive at ion and ngee ann city. for the ones who like to go shopping, i doubt there’s better option with lower price. just across the street you can find a food court in far east plaza, where you can find various choice of food which provides y...

I booked a few rooms for our family members and friends during my wedding night. All of them commented that the rooms were clean and spacious. Interiors were beautiful. Hotel staffs were friendly and attentiveness. They tried their best to accomodate to most of our requests and housekeeping staffs were detailed and hardworking. Buffet Spread in the morning was good and...

We stayed for 3 nights here. The location is very nice. Its 5mins walk from Dhoby Ghaut MRT station near Plaza Singapora. It has 7-11 shops available near by so u can get your break fast/snack anytime while on your way out or back to hotel. It has a neat swimming pool on roof top accessible by lift 1 only with an outstanding view of the vicinity. Recommend a panoramic ...

Initially there was some issue with our room booking as they were fully booked and we had late check in time, around 4pm (supposed to be at 3pm) However, the guest services and management team spoke to us personally and managed to do some great service recovery Initially we were a little frustrated with the room booking issue as they did not have the exact room which...

I would recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a special hotel in the heart of Singapore. The facilities are first class and the hotel staff are so friendly and helpful. I loved the pool-side service, the amazing choice of restaurants and the tropical feel of the gardens that surround the hotel. Definitely my first choice for hotels in Singapore. Being able to ...

the personals in this hotel are very nice, if you don't know where you should visit, they will tell you clearly. this hotel is near the botanic and orchid garden ,near the bus station which you can take un bus tour around singapore. and this hotel is at the beginning of the road which has a lot of shopping center.

Awesome location if you want to enjoy strolling around the leafy wealthy suburbs, and only a 15 minute walk to the gorgeous Botanical Gardens, and 10 to Orchid road. Good sized rooms. No carpet which is great for cleanliness but can mean noise travels down from chairs moving above. Not really designed to be a tourist hotel so naturally facilities are limited in that re...

My second time staying in Novotel. New hotel, near Orchard road, but away from the bustling of Orchard crowd. A few not so positive things to note : 1. I didn’t not request for an extra bed, but when I got to my room, there was an extra bed inside. I had booked the room for one pax only. 2. For a relatively new hotel, the drainage system is not very well maintained, s...

The room had everything we needed. It was spacious. The bathroom in the master bedroom was a little bit small for me and my parents. I had to stay in the master bedroom because there were only 2 single beds in the 2nd room. This is good for 4 persons at best unless the 5th person is willing to sleep in the sofa or, like me, in the master bedroom. They had an assortment...

My kid n I late check-in at evening. Room was ready. 2 older male staffs were at the counter. For those people who said the staffs are rude pls touch your heart & ask yourself. I mean things goes both ways. If you are friendly & courteous you get the same treatment back. Dont be yaya papaya & expect that you are some big shot checking in. The hotel uses the older c/in...

On top of our list is the hotel staff - friendly, warm, efficient and proactive. They are the hotel’s best assets! Well-trained, polite and educated, incl the breakfast crew. Definitely, A1 rating. Second is the hotel room . While it may not be spacious, it had very comfortable beds/pillows, excellent airconditioning and was always cleaned early by housekeeping. Third...

It was my first time travelling out of country so I made sure I'd get the best hotel with cheaper price, and so I decided to book with Agoda. Checking in was fast. I spent not longer than 5 minutes and we were good to go in to our room. Check in should be at 2pm but we were made to check in an hour earlier since the room was ready when we got there. The hotel us quite...

Breakf...

I had a great time in the Marriott Singapore hotel. From the first time we arrived me with my young kids we were welcomed with cold water and a smile during a busy day with people passing by the orchid road as its location is on that main road. The room type and size was great with all the facilities we needed. Food and their tea timing and sides were wonderful in the ...

i only stayed for a night with my friends (there was 3 of us), but my overall experience was definitely 5/5. we arrived early in singapore and got an early check-in which totally helped because we weren't planning to stay in the city center to wait for 2pm. when we got into our hotel room, everything was neat, there was extra towels and overall, a really great room for...

Overall the hotel is excellent--the gardens, quality of food and service are all as to be expected from a hotel of this quality. I stayed only for the weekend but will return again soon for another visit. On the first night I had a table of ten booked into the Japanese restaurant; the quality was the best I have ever had but be prepared to pay the price, around 250 SG...

The location is the main part of my review. The locations is a bit far from the central orchard (takasimaya, paragon, etc) require about 3-5 minute walk via underpass to there. A bit far from me because the last time i stay in mandarin orchard (this hotel is centrally located). I think the room is a bit small compare to other hotel that i've been stayed in singapore. O...

Overall it was an awesome experience. The room was spacious, nicely furnished and decorated, bathroom was big and cosy, bed was extremely comfortable. The hotel is located really close to Orchard Road, a good 20-minutes leisurely stroll or about 2-3 bus stops away. It was not cheap, but it is worth every single cent we paid for. The brunch at Le Brezza was very good...

Our stay was enhanced by the location-although we arrived at about 9.30pm, we managed to take a quick walk to survey the area and see the fabulous lights along Orchard Road. We also walked to the Botanical and Orchid Gardens which were exceptional. the hotel at this time of the is so beautifully decorated that it is a treat in itself! The Reception staff were polite - ...

A very pleasant stay. The boutique quality (34 rooms) nestled amongst rich garden, backing onto local residences with minimal traffic made for a peaceful stay. A 7 minute walk to Somerset MRT/Orchard Rd with a host of eateries in between made it a very convenient retreat after a full day out, as did the piping hot shower (great pressure!) and air-con. A fee dispensing ...

Very friendly and welcoming staff team, every single person greeted us at all times even when we ran across them in the parking lot. We were shown around the property when we arrived and got to see all facilities. Breakfast was nice, always refilled with fresh fruit, toast etc. Free coffee 24 hours from machine in lobby. Nice gym area, open 24 hours. very nice ...

We chose the cheaper room with no window but this was fine for us as we were out all day. The room was a good size and clean. There was a large choice for breakfast including eggs, bacon, toast and croisants. We could walk to the Orchid gardens and Orchid road.

I liked staying at the Orchard Garden Hotel. It's my first time to stay there and I liked it. They have a friendly staff. I met two Filipino staff members at the Front Desk. They spoke Filipino with me and that is why I immediately felt at home in the hotel. The hotel is conveniently located near the shopping district of Singapore. I just walked to nearby shops. W...
