Top Merlion Hotel Reviews

Paradox Singapore

10/10 Excellent

"View from room"

Swissotel The Stamford, Singapore

10/10 Excellent

"This is one of top three choices of my staycation experience in Singapore. There is nothing negative of my holiday in this hotel. It is 98 points out of 100 points in my score (98 percent)."

Hotel Waterloo Singapore - Handwritten Collection

8/10 Good

"The location is very handy and the staff super friendly. The room was tiny but the mattresses were good and firm and the hotel was fairly quiet. They could provide more tea and coffee in the room though. For two people we only found one tea bag of green tea and one black tea, respectively, and we had to ask for more repetitively."

Hotel Boss

10/10 Excellent

"All good"

Carlton Hotel Singapore

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect room on the top floor. Great breakfast, typical for Asian countries. Had a swim in the pool, very clean and relaxing."

The Fullerton Hotel Singapore

10/10 Excellent

"Always top-notch."

Marina Bay Sands

10/10 Excellent

"The most extraordinary stay I’ve had. Staff were amazing and their hospitality is top tier. All of the hotel concierge were helpful but when I was facing a huge difficulty with my credit card the front desk agent really put herself in my place and not only understood my problem but solved it. I cannot thank the marina bay sands team for taking care of me during my stay. I am definitely gonna be coming back. Everything was just divine."

Grand Park City Hall

8/10 Good

"Check in is a bit of a nightmare. Turned up at 1430 and didn’t get my room till 1630. Other than that was lovely"

The Ritz-Carlton, Millenia Singapore

10/10 Excellent

"We had visited for our 5th year anniversary and the staff went above and beyond to make it our memorable visit. Excellent decorations were made and they gave us a 100g complimentary fruit platter for our celebration. Excellent buffet breakfast in the morning (probably the best in Singapore) with almost every cuisine in the world present Coming to the room, it’s probably the best view you can get in whole of Singapore. It faces Marina bay and the downtown skyline. Especially in the night, with all the colors, you can also watch a bit of Spectra, the light show which happens at the bay in the night. Bath tub is huge which has the downtown and street views of Singapore from your bathtub! Coming to the location, it’s right in the heart of Singapore with 6 mins walk to MRT and all famous spots of Singapore like Gardens by the bay, Marina Bay and Merlion within 1-1.5kms from the hotel. This is probably the best ever room you can book in Singapore and would recommend anytime for any occasion!"
