Kampong Glam Hotels

This hotel is well located, being a modest walk from Bugis, MRTs, Sim Lin and Raffles and a good pool hall has just opened next door. Locally there are many small (Arab/Turkish) restaurants a short walk from the hotel. Reception staff were efficient and polite but not very welcoming. Room looked slightly spartan but clean, modern and a good size. Breakfast was acceptable without being impressive. There are a few shops including a 7/11 type in the complex. Singapore is horribly over-priced at the moment but this under-stated hotel is quite good value. We were surprisingly happy with our stay.

Wonderful experience at this hotel. Staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast was a nice start to the day as well. Facilities such as pool and fitness centre were top notch. Location was close to MRT and taxi fares were reasonable from this hotel.

I stayed for business and found this hotel and neighborhood a great way to experience old Singapore. Walking around the district you will find lots of cafes. Eat at the "Nan Hwa Chong Fish-Head Steamboat Corner" just down the street. Colouful plastic tables curbside, bathed in fluorescent light and full of locals; I had a delicious spicy sweet and sour pork on rice with a water for SGD$5.50. It's a 5-15 min taxi ride to downtown areas, or a brisk 20-30 min walk. Also a 10-15 min walk to Little India, another treasure trove of eateries. I found the location very convenient. In short, the hotel lacks some amenities, such as a gym or pool, but makes up for it in terms of a charismatic location and understated restoration of a heritage building. I had a ground floor room next to the laneway and didn't have any noise issues, though I did sleep with earplugs out of habit.

Good location, celna room with a bunk queen sized bed. Great for a hostel.

This hotel is conveniently located and compact but functional. The facilities are basic but the room is very comfortable with all the necessacities: on suite, air conditioning, free wifi, TV and free tea/coffee facilities (including complimentary water bottle). There was no breakfast or food, safe, ironing facilities or fridge. The en suite had a wet room. Because of the cramped, compact size, the entire bathroom floor becomes wet, and water spills over even on the toilet seat after a shower. This is actually quite a common Asian concept which guests might find discerning. The location is very central and convenient, particularly if you would like to catch one of the long distance buses to Malaysia that depart from Golden Mile Complex etc. The price is very reasonable, especially of booked through Expedia and I would stay here again.
