Very friendly staff. Clean room . Capsule comfortable. Location is ok. 8 min walk to China Town MRT or 15 min walk to Esplanade. Locker for belongings is small . Shower area is small. Further, the single room I booked had the mattress on the floor. If you are not used to that it might be an inconvenience ...

Grand Copthorne Waterfront
Great location on the river, walking distance to the quays and tons of restaurants within a 2 minute walk. MRT station is across the street so getting anywhere in Singapore is super easy. My wife loved starting her day with breakfast on the hotel terrace overlooking the river.

Great pool area, clean and comfortable room. We were lucky enough to get a brilliant view over the pool, river and city! Staff keen to look after you, we left the do not disturb sign on the door as we didnt feel we needed room cleaning but were asked 3 times if we were sure!
