Hotels in Singapore

Looking for a hotel in Singapore? There are numerous accommodation types to suit all budgets and preferences in the island. They range from affordable and budget hotels to boutique and five-star hotels. And you can find hotels from the Orchard Road shopping area to the more suburban districts of Geylang.

Selecting a hotel depends on your budget and requirements. Most hotels come with standard facilities like International Direct Dial (IDD) phones, internet and cable, room service, mini bars, data ports for modem, no-smoking rooms or floors, business and fitness centres furnished with the latest equipment. If you are on a shoestring, look for hotels that provide just the bed and bathroom. Most hotels have promotional rates available from time to time, we recommend that you check directly with the hotel before making any reservations.

The locations of the hotels affect the rates of the room. The closer you are to prime shopping districts, the more expensive the rooms are. Hotels along Orchard Road are the priciest, while those along Bencoolen Street are the cheapest. But there are many affordable hotels that are near train and bus stations, so picking one hotel near them would greatly enhance your daily commuting needs.

It is advisable to make advance reservations to avoid disappointment. Most major credit cards are accepted and you may be required to leave a credit card imprint or number upon check-in. Please note that rates are quoted in Singapore Dollars and maybe subject to a 10% service charge, 5% Goods and Services Tax (GST) and 1% Cess.
