New Hotels in Singapore

"Newly renovated with nice and clean room, but the wall is so thin that you can hear other people chatting and water running sounds when they are showering. It would be nice if the bathroom has separate dry/wet area, and hope they have some shower curtains because it’s quite awkward to shower with just ground glass windows. Near MRT Farrer Park station, you can access MRT by going through the mall across the hotel. Very close to Mustafa shopping center, City Square Mall, and Hawker center just 5 minutes walk. Friendly and helpful receptionist."

"Facilities: The room wasn't huge, but it was very clean and had no strange odors. The sink area was spacious, and the mirror light was perfect for applying makeup. The only issue was that the light switch for the sink area wasn't separate; when you turned it on in the morning, all the lights came on at once. Service: A young man at the front desk provided excellent service. An older staff member, however, seemed to pick and choose who they served. When checking us in, they didn't even give us the room card sleeve (which usually has the room number) and immediately turned to assist a European/American tourist instead. Ultimately, the young man finished our check-in, and his attitude was very good."

"Sleek stays, subtle vibes right in the heart of the city. The space is clean, modern, and thoughtfully designed, making it a really comfortable place to stay. Everything you need is complete too—microwave, fridge, kettle, and utensils—which made the stay even more convenient. Despite being close to bars, the noise wasn’t too bothersome at all and the stay was generally quiet and restful. There was just one night where it got noisy that we literally woke up from our sleep. I am very sure it was not from the bar but possibly from another room, as there were some loud banging sounds from the walls and like trying to unlock the door knob. We booked 2 rooms, the other room which was across another hallway mentioned they also heard it. It seemed like a one-off situation during our stay, and we reported it to the staff just in case but 🤷. Service was also great! Very accommodating receptionists, and virtual assistants were quick to respond to any queries via WhatsApp, which made everything super convenient. Check-in and check-out were seamless, and I especially loved the mobile app room key—such a nice, modern touch. Keeps you from losing/forgetting you hotel key cards as well! One small downside is that water tends to seep through the glass shower door, so the toilet area can get a bit wet. It didn’t bother me much, but it’s something that could be improved. Overall, a smooth and hassle-free stay. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a stylish and convenient boutique hotel in the city."

"This was my first time staying in a capsule hostel, and I found this one through Trip.com with an open mind. **Check-in convenience:** The front desk staff were two Chinese individuals, and check-in was quite efficient. They informed me about the hostel rules, such as no air conditioning from 11 AM to 3 PM (which might not suit everyone), and then escorted me upstairs to show me how to use the keyless entry. I had a bit of trouble with it, but the front desk lady promptly helped me out. **Facilities:** In the room, each bed had a pillow, duvet, bath towel, clothes hanger, power outlet, a password-locked locker (approx. 35x50x45 cm), and a key card. In the common areas, there were toothbrushes, earplugs, combs, razors, hairdryers, shower rooms, restrooms, washing machines, and drying racks. Since everyone's schedules are different, if you encounter others in the morning, everyone waits patiently and orderly. There aren't really any dedicated storage spaces for luggage in the rooms, and for girls who like to do their makeup, there's no specific shelf, so cosmetics end up wherever there's a surface. One morning, when I opened my door, the narrow hallway revealed a girl by the window applying meticulous makeup, which reminded me of the saying: 'Life is not just about the struggles in front of you, but also poetry and distant lands...' **Safety:** The hostel guests come from various countries, including Europe, America, Russia, and China. Don't let some of the tattoos fool you; everyone maintains polite boundaries, smiles and greets, and doesn't try to get too familiar. My female dormitory could sleep 10 people and was almost full. I stayed for 3 nights. On the first night, a Chinese guest was making a quiet phone call at midnight. I said, 'Please take your call outside.' And they stopped. The second night was mostly quiet, except for the sound of guests unzipping their luggage. On the third night, I was drifting off to sleep when I was woken by quiet talking from the bunk below me to the right. I saw it was a Chinese guest on WeChat voice, so I said again, 'Please take your call outside.' At midnight, I was woken up again by the excited chattering of a Russian girl entering the room, so I got up and said, 'Could you please be a little quieter...' The girl turned around and said, 'Sorry.' Just as I was about to fall asleep, I heard a girl re-enter the room, quite loudly and seemingly upset. Fortunately, the noise stopped within a minute. Luckily, nobody snored loudly throughout the night, otherwise, I, being a light sleeper, would have had a very difficult time. Going to the restroom or shower requires walking about 50 meters and passing through 4 doors. A midnight trip to the toilet pretty much wipes out any sleepiness. **Hygiene:** Overall, the hygiene is quite good. I saw staff cleaning the common areas every day. **Environment:** The hostel is a 5-minute walk from Chinatown MRT station, and it's surrounded by Chinatown, making it very convenient for food. If you're looking for cheaper options, you can find food courts on the 2nd floor of Chinatown Complex or at People's Park Complex. There's also a good little Chinese-run shop near the MRT entrance. The hostel's ground floor has the front desk, a cafe, breakfast area, and a lounge. The sleeping area is on the second floor, accessed from an external door with a key card. Upstairs, there's a shared lounge, rooms, and shoe lockers (since shoes need to be left outside, the hallway has a bit of an odor). I didn't go up to the third floor. Across from the female dorm is an Indian temple. On the first day, I didn't know what festival it was, but they were chanting and singing from 5 PM until 8:30 PM, and it started again at 7 AM the next morning, continuing into the evening. Fortunately, they stopped on the third day. The timing wasn't too bad and didn't affect my sleep. **Service:** I stayed for 3 nights with breakfast included: toast, lettuce salad, milk tea, pastries, eggs, milk tea, and coffee. The pastries and eggs had some variety. There was a local Chinese staff member who politely and discreetly kept an eye on guests, mainly to prevent waste or misplaced utensils. Every time I entered the restroom or toilet, they were quite clean, and there was always shower gel, shampoo, and toilet paper. The only thing I couldn't understand was why the air conditioning was turned off from 11 AM to 3 PM in the rooms. Singapore is very hot. Is it to force everyone out to sightsee or run errands? **Overall Impression:** I found this capsule hostel to be safe, with good environment, service, and facilities. It's a place I'd consider staying at again. Thanks to Trip.com for the recommendation! Thanks to the hostel for its excellent management and service! And thanks to the generally well-mannered guests I encountered!"

"We came here for a short visit was meant to be 2 nights needed up as 3 nights the hotel was great we booked a deluxe room which was a bit small but I’m guessing they have larger rooms available. The check in staff were great especially the guy! The rooms were spotless hotel was spotless was a great price especially for Singapore and over new year. Easy 10 min walk to a nearest small mall and several food spots and 15 from China town etc. only down fall was the noise from the street I’m guessing it may be new year celebrations so will give it the benefit of the doubt but could here people shouting and singing till early hours but once in a deep sleep fine :)"

"I chose this hotel for its convenient location near Chinatown, close to my client's company, and its affordability. My flight was delayed, so I only checked in at 4 AM and left around 9 AM, so I didn't get a full experience. It's an old building that's been renovated, so natural light is limited. Overall, it was quite clean, but I did spot a cockroach in the bathroom 😲"

"I'll start by saying I didn't have high expectations. Singapore is quite an expensive city, and finding a room close to the center for that price is pretty much impossible (one correction: when we were choosing where to stay, many people mentioned there were no windows). We arrived early in the morning and just wanted to leave our bags at the luggage storage, but it turned out our room was already ready, so we happily checked in and went out to explore. The staff at the front desk were friendly and ready to help. The location, we believe, is excellent. The metro is nearby, about a 10-minute walk, and it's on the line that goes to the airport. The hotel itself is small, located in a charming little neighborhood without high-rises. As for sights, there's a mosque nearby, but we didn't hear any noise or morning prayers. I'd like to say a bit more about the neighborhood itself. It's a lively area with good nightlife, plenty of places to eat and drink for any budget, including a 7/11. It's incredibly colorful. Every new turn reveals new murals and graffiti. In the evening, you can sit at a small bar on a narrow street and enjoy the pleasant vibe. You can walk to the Gardens by the Bay and Marina Bay Sands – it takes about 40 minutes. Or you can take the metro (Lavender station, or walk a bit further to another line near the mosque). So, it's suitable for both those who enjoy walking and exploring the city, and those who don't. However, given the huge distances (as it turned out), it's worth considering using the metro to save your feet! The room: extremely small. It fits a table, a chair, a bed, and a narrow walkway on one side – that's it. It has its own private bathroom. Of course, you shouldn't expect palatial rooms like at a Four Seasons, but for the price, the room more than justifies itself. It was clean and cozy, with a working kettle, hairdryer, TV, and air conditioning. All toiletries were provided in the bathroom. I recommend it for anyone on a limited budget or who doesn't want to spend a lot on a place just for sleeping. Plus, you have such beauty within walking distance."

"The hotel is very convenient, especially for bikers, there are public motorcycle parking lots right in front of the hotel. I selected a room away from the lift and without a window, which helped reduce noise significantly, making it very quiet and comfortable for rest. The facilities are new and well maintained. I had to work overnight and only returned to the hotel around 4am; the staff was kind enough to allow a late checkout at 1pm instead of the usual 11am, which I really appreciated. Overall, a pleasant and thoughtful stay."

"Super clean room, relatively new, with nice hospitality. We stayed 2 nights in a standard queen room with 2 adults and a 2-year-old child. The room has limited space for movement, but it was sufficient for resting at night after spending the day exploring the city. Under-bed storage is very useful for keeping belongings and freeing up space. There is limited space for prayer, but it was still manageable. We brought a stroller and were able to place it behind the door. You just need to organize your belongings well. The hotel provides two bottles of water, standard amenities (shower gel, shampoo, toothbrush, toothpaste), a bidet, TV, and Wi-Fi. Good location—only a short walk to Lavender MRT station and a bus stop. The area feels safe, with many restaurants and cafés along the way, even at night. A FairPrice supermarket is also available nearby for daily necessities. Halal food options near the hotel are limited; I only found two Indian restaurants, though this may be due to limited exploration. Soundproofing is not perfect, and some noise from surrounding rooms or the corridor can still be heard. I would like to apologize if any noise was caused during our stay, as we were traveling with a young child."

"The hotel is conveniently located just two blocks from Somerset MRT station Exit A, surrounded by numerous shopping malls, and close to Killiney and Da Shi Jia Prawn Noodle – perfect for shopping and dining. Unfortunately, there's a large construction site right next to the hotel. The sidewalk on that side is gone, and crossing the street is tricky, often requiring jaywalking. I booked a balcony room, but it faced the construction site. Work started at 9 AM, making it very noisy and dusty – the balcony was a complete waste. I believe guests should be informed about ongoing construction when booking; this was unacceptable. We noticed a sensor in our room. When we asked the front desk, they explained it was a motion sensor installed as part of the hotel's eco-friendly initiative. The air conditioning automatically turns off when there's no movement and slowly lowers the temperature when someone is detected. However, it made for an uncomfortable night's sleep, with the AC constantly fluctuating between hot and cold, and a loud motor sound every time it activated. The toilet was a TOTO washlet with an automatic lid, but it kept opening and closing by itself in the middle of the night, which was a bit unsettling and scary. 😨"
