Balestier Trip

We arrived only to discover that the room we had booked was too small for us. We were transitting through Singapore on a 2 day stop over so had 5 pieces of luggage along with 2 adults and a 13 year old child. We had to upgrade the room at $60 per night. I guess this was our fault not there's but easily fixed. Room was comfy, TV channels selection was awful. Only 7 channels and even though they advertised in the lobby you could watch the FIFA world cup in your room, none of the channels showed it. Pool was great. Location was good, 5 minute walk to the Havelock rail station. Place is a bit dated but was great for what we needed. We didn't eat there at all. Zion Road Hawker Market is close by and good value for food.

Excellent room. Loved the cleanliness and space. The pool was great as well

It is very nice hotel. The room is large and very clean. The stay is very comfortable.

I didn't like that our room had no natural light. The location is excellent.

Stayed in May 2026 and would highly recommend this hotel. We had a Marina Bay view room with a balcony and was well worth it. The views of the bay and the wider city were breathtaking and not obscured in any way. We travelled with two young children and having the balcony to sit on while they slept was well worth the extra cost. The room was for two doubles, but they did add a third single bed in the room which was ideal. The check in process was exceptionally smooth with no delay as a large number of staff and automated systems. Were even able to obtain a late check out. Below the hotel was a shopping centre making it very easy to get snacks, drinks for room and for the day out as well as get many breakfast options. The location was very good and easily walkable to Merlion and Boat Quay. For further distances just use Grab as very cheap. We did use the rooftop bar, but to be honest the views were just as good from the room and as kids not allowed after 6pm did not feel had to go more than the once. The pool was ok but not very large to say supported two hotels. Bar staff at pool were very good and nice touch to have sunscreen available.
