Top Merlion Hotel Reviews

Pan Pacific Singapore

10/10 Excellent

"I love this hotel. It is located in the city center, close to metro station. Staffs are professional, everywhere is clean. Nice swimming pool which opens until 10pm."

PARKROYAL COLLECTION Marina Bay, Singapore

10/10 Excellent

"Nice view and convenient"

Hotel Waterloo Singapore - Handwritten Collection

8/10 Good

"I had a lovely stay at the hotel on my most recent visit to Singapore. I didn't have breakfast except on the first morning - I was up and out very early and couldn't eat at that point. The morning I did have breakfast it was very good with everything I could have wanted being provided, including both hot and cold food. My room was very clean and comfortable and staff were always attentive. The only downside was the fire alarm going off early one morning and the continuous announcements that it was being investigated. After 20 minutes I decided to go out as it didn't seem to be stopping! Apart from that I'd definitely recommend as a great place to stay with convenient MRT access and everything I needed within walking distance of the hotel."

Mandarin Oriental, Singapore

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was simply exceptional. I was unwell so had limited mobility and the staff went way beyond to make my stay comfortable."

The Ritz-Carlton, Millenia Singapore

10/10 Excellent

"I really appreciated how well the staff took care of us during our three-day stay. Right from the start, we felt so welcomed. A young lady greeted us as soon as I got out of the taxi and asked about our trip and vacation plans. At the front desk, the gentleman who checked us in didn't just handle the paperwork—he actually took time to walk me through my questions about local currency and tipping customs. The room design is beautiful—the style might be a bit dated, but honestly, it has aged like a fine wine. Everything is so well maintained. The whole room layout just makes sense, the lighting is super intuitive, and there are plenty of drawers to put away our clothes and shoes. Housekeeping was seamless and so thoughtful. I never even saw a cleaning crew in the hallway, yet the room was magically tidied up twice a day. They set my toiletries and cosmetics on top of little separate towels near the sink, arranged just how I like them to keep water from splashing on them. On the second day, I left a small blood stain on my bathrobe, which my wife and I didn't think was a big deal to worry about. But the attentive housekeeping staff noticed it anyway and brought a fresh, clean one later that afternoon without us even having to ask. Breakfast was fantastic. There was an incredible spread—Western, Japanese, Chinese, Malaysian, and Indian options—and every single dish tasted great and was super well prepared."

Fairmont Singapore

10/10 Excellent

"Elite hotel."

The Fullerton Hotel Singapore

8/10 Good

"Overall it is a beautiful hotel. We had issues with the TV in the bedroom that we had to have technicians come back twice to try and fix over the span of about 4 hours. That was quite frustrating. Water in the shower was lukewarm. The was also maintenance being done in the room next door all door which was quite loud. The staff were wonderful and food was great. Perhaps if they had of switched our room it would have been a more pleasant stay."

PARKROYAL COLLECTION Pickering, Singapore

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent every time! Thank you Parkroyal Pickering for always making my stay feel like like such an experience!"
