Hotels near Coast-to-Coast Trail

"we have high expectation of the banyan tree brand and have stayed in their hotels in Phuket and KL. however, the resort in Singapore, supposing HQ, was somewhat disappointing. First the plus, the onsite staff is excellent and helpful. our rainforest room is big, nicely design, good layout and with excellent built quality. Most disappointing are unresponsive reservation and buffet breakfast that doesn’t tally and below expectation of a with a 5 -star resort. Having booked our stay with our trusted hotels.com, some queries and requests for info sent to the hotel went unanswered and we have to waste time calling up the hotel. A few day before checking in, we were sent a long e-form through whatsapp for filling in. I must have stayed over a hundred hotels in the past 40 years but have not encountered this. While from the hotel’s point of view, it saves them time but as a customer buying service, this did not make sense - we paid for 5-star service and expect likewise. We stayed for 2-night, the breakfast is the worst of all equivalent grade hotel. While there is a wide variety and choice, the quality is poor and food lacks flavour. Examples, the bacon is paper thin and feel like eating a sheet of salt, laksa comes with 10% of oil on top, lemak curry chicken comes with thick sauce but taste like the curry powder is not fried like Japanese curry, porridge is lukewarm, etc. there is also a shortage of baby chairs.

"Shangri-La Singapore is an excellent family-friendly hotel, featuring a kids’ indoor playground and a fun water play area with slides. Children are welcomed with a thoughtful goodie bag at check-in, including toiletries and coloured pencils. The hotel also offers a dedicated kids’ breakfast corner, adding to the convenience for families. Staff are attentive and professional, consistently ensuring guests feel well taken care of. Overall, a well-designed and enjoyable stay for both parents and children."

"Strongly recommended"

"We have stayed here before so know the hotel well although it was 8 years since we stayed there. Everything was perfect with rooms being upgraded since our last trip. Great location just 5 mins walk from the top of Orchard Road and with an MRT station just over the road as well. Staff are very helpful and nothing is too much trouble. Will be staying there again on our next visit"

"I really enjoyed my stay at Citadines. It was clean and the location was quiet. The facilities are nice and the staff are really nice too. Will come back! "

"Nice property, room is a bit small, people there are good"

"Great to have a kitchen and the location is really super convenient. Having the MRT under the building is great for a tourist."

"Quick overnight stay for business trip. Room was nice & bed was comfy. Didn't have a chance to explore the property. "

"I booked the studio apartment room through Expedia and checked in around midnight after a long travel. Check in was long and my room smelled very strange. My shower didn’t have hot water and the staff tried to fix it twice. The washer/dryer combo shrunk some of my clothes so I switched to the communal free laundry service and the machines smelled as if they had never been cleaned. The “co working space” was OK when the internet was working but the staff and guests would continually walk through or talk, so it was really difficult to work there. Overall, I feel this may work for others but I would absolutely never return. I spent a lot of money on this trip and feel the value was 100% not there. "
