The hotel is located in a nice area, close to the MRT station and La Pau Sat, making it convenient for both business and leisure travelers. The rooms are spacious and offer a lovely view, but some might find them a bit dim without the bedside lamps. The service is attentive and friendly, ensuring a pleasant stay, though they could improve on providing information about local attractions. The dining experience offers a good variety of continental and local dishes, although it can get crowded during peak hours. Overall, a pleasant stay with room for minor improvements.

The hotel is like a mini apartment within walking distance of the marina and close to the offices on Marina Blvd. The service is top-notch, with the friendly and helpful staff being the biggest asset. The location is excellent, right in the Central Business District of Singapore, accessible to various attractions and transportation options. The dining experience may not be worth the price paid for breakfast, but the facilities are convenient and enjoyable.
The hotel has its perks with a close proximity to good food options and Marina Bay, along with helpful and friendly staff. Despite some noise and lack of natural light in the rooms, as well as dining that may not fully meet expectations, the efficient check-in and check-out process adds to the positive experience.
The hotel offers spacious modern studio apartments with great amenities. The comfortable large platform bed and tasteful decor enhance the stay, but the dining options could be more varied. The central location is perfect for both business and sightseeing.
The hotel has quaint outdoor areas, including a top-floor hot tub, and offers nice versions of all standard amenities. The rooms are quiet, ideal for reading.

The location provides direct access to popular areas with a classy bar and lounge for guests to enjoy. The dining experience, while average, offers nice intimacy with an excellent buffet at times. The hotel's facilities are well-rounded.
The hotel offers huge, extremely spacious rooms that are very well-equipped, complete with fantastic marble bathrooms. The location is great for first-time visitors, right across from the Raffles Place MRT station and close to Lau Pa Sat hawkers market. The dining experience could be improved, but overall, it's a fantastic place to stay.
The hotel rooms were very large and indeed felt like a studio apartment, modern, and wide with great amenities. The service was impeccable, very attentive, and considerate. The location was excellent, easily accessible to many places of interest. The dining experience was adequate but a bit pricey. The facilities were top-notch, including a fantastic marble bathroom and a welcoming swimming pool.
Wow, I was pleasantly surprised by the spacious and homey rooms at this hotel. The full-facility kitchen, excellent bathroom, lounge area, and big bedroom exceeded my expectations. However, being on a low level with no views was a minor downside. The rooms were nicely outfitted, modern, comfortable, and well-thought out.
