Alexandra Canal Linear Park

Affordable, clean and modern.

The location is great, close to Chinatown and MRT stations, a grocery store, and restaurants. We booked a "small room", and as advertised, it is small, but no complaints, as the room was like the photos, with a nice feature wall, and a private bathroom. Where this hotel stands out is the shared areas and the free coffee/tea - i.e., the large co-working area, the shared kitchen (with 24/7 access to coffee or tea), the wellness studio, the laundry room, and many areas inside and outside to sit and hang out. Staff are also very friendly and helpful with any requests or inquiries - i.e., our bathroom door wasn't closing, and they had someone come to fix it the same day. I would recommend for a short stay in Signapore, but especially for longer stays, as access to the shared spaces makes this hotel ideal/comfortable for longer stays.

We stayed at Carlton Hotel Singapore for six nights and overall had a pleasant stay. The location is excellent — within easy walking distance of many restaurants, shopping areas, and major tourist attractions, which made exploring the city very convenient. Our room was clean and comfortable, and the hotel worked well as a base for our time in Singapore. The only downside was the late-night check-in experience. We arrived around 2 a.m., and the staff member on duty was not particularly welcoming and made the process more difficult than expected. Considering Singapore’s usually high hospitality standards, this was a bit surprising. Aside from that moment, the stay was comfortable and the location remains a strong advantage of this hotel.
