Holiday Inn Express Singapore Clarke Quay by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Great location only a few mins from Clarke quay and Robertson quay . Clarke quay , china town and fort canning stations are all within a 10 min walk The hotel offers a free breakfast The pool area is roof top and has stunning views of Marina bay sands hotel . Bar area is open until midnight and drinks are reasonable in price for Singapore . We have stayed at the hotel several times now and it is really good and reasonably priced."

lyf Funan Singapore

8/10 Good

"Stayed 4 nights at Lyf Funan. Check in was friendly and the 2 gift bags was a wonderful suprise. More surprising was no tv in the room :). Buffet breakfast was adequate and I want to say that Soon Fa was a very friendly breakfast assistant. Always smiling and pleasant greetings. Unfortunately the front desk staff wasn’t as engaging. Upon leaving or returning to the hotel we was actually only acknowledged once by a nice girl who said have a good night. No other staff spoke even though they weren’t busy serving customers. I was just surprised by this as the whole selling of the LYF brand is to be engaging with others. Overall it was a pleasant stay, great location too."

Furama RiverFront

8/10 Good

"Close to a mall good location seemed bizarre on the weekend the restaurant seemed closed off for a wedding yet no reduction in Rate."

Hotel 81 Osaka

8/10 Good

"The staff was very responsive and helpful."
