kirayamato25 Posted August 12, 2020 Report Share Posted August 12, 2020 Hi. Anyone has any recommendation for a Staycation in Singapore? Just to chill and unwind with a pool or bathtub. If its cruisy then its a bonus. Else, just a place to chill for the night and recharge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually book Sofitel city center / Swissotel merchant court / swissotel stamford, especially if there's a good deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if you check in at The Plaza will free usage for gym. Before the pandemic i used to go to HK just to clear my mileage i will fly on Friday and back on Monday.

I believe the hotels you are referring to now are called: https://www.swissotel.com/hotels/singapore-stamford/ https://www.fairmont.com/singapore/ Westin SG re-opened in a new location: https://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/sinwi-the-westin-singapore/ Let's not confuse the members here with things from a long time ago yea especially when this thread is supposed to be staycation recommendations in SG.

TT2880 Posted October 1, 2020 Report Share Posted October 1, 2020 (edited) Hello. Has booked one with my partner. Usually we look for value for money, such as include meals, dining credits, complimentary parking, room size, bed size, even bath tub. Of course, be prepared to pay more for 5 stars hotel as compared to the lesser stars. There must be reasons why they hv more stars then the others so as to justify their pricing. But, some hotels here really priced themselves exorbitantly high without really exceptional qualities. Nonetheless, is really subjective so work within your budget. Our next considerations are location and the theme (mood). Romantic cld means ultra pampering in luxurious environment. Basically, Wowing your loved one. For to-be-alone kind of retreat, pick one that is closer to nature or the beach. If you are in Party mood, go for hotel closer to the night spots for a seamless crazy night out or book a suite or villa. But then, with social distancing measures in place, this is probably prohibited now. As for services, is pretty depending on luck. That said, the underlying rule is that we as guest should treat the staff with respect. Think along the line that you are visiting a friend or a relative, they are the host and talk to them, share your joy and excitement. You never know that you might be pleasantly surprised by their reciprocal gesture. For deals, we will check offer tied with credit card's. Do visit the hotel's website, you might find that they hv a really good deal. Then there is the APPs. Happy shopping for your staycation. Some Recommendations: Ritz (bathroom) St Regis (Lux) Conrad (Comfort) Capella (Greenary and Pool, but damn pricey now) Sofitel Sentosa (old charm and out-of-sg) Fullerton (Heritage and Museums) Thank you.

As of now, SafeEntry is mandatory at all public places. Unlikely you can go up to the rooms on your own without showing the SafeEntry pass. Some hotels may even pass you a slip of paper to indicate the purpose of your visit to the hotel. You are obliged to include your name, IC and contact details for contact tracing as required by the government Edited October 12, 2020 by Fountain82 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually One farrer hotel is quite a good bet, in term of pricing, they definitely are one of the lowest among all the 5 star hotel here. In term of facilities, they are the only one that had an Olympic size pool with Jacuzzi. They also have a spa onsen which is really nice and the gym is considered reasonable for a 5 star hotel.

West93 Posted February 19, 2021 Report Share Posted February 19, 2021 33 minutes ago, milky_boi said: thanks haha a bit too expensive and deserted Don't fall into the trap of using the $100 voucher to book a staycation that costs more than that. Gov isn't giving that out overtly as a way for us to get free staycays. It's to create sunk cost fallacy for us when we spend it as a discount on luxury hotels and staycay packages, so we still end up paying out of pocket. Either find a hotel under 100 or at most 10 to 20 dollars over that for the staycation, or don't use it at all. That's the way to go. kidster, sum1outhere_03 and milky_boi 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
30yochinese Posted July 5, 2021 Report Share Posted July 5, 2021 hi, i hope u find this info useful, last week i stayed at a 4-star-hotel, i am not trying to complain that all 4-star-hotels are bad but based on my experience, this happened: (1) TV was small, 32" the next day i upgraded to a Suite, suddenly the TV became 55" (2) Limited channels on the TV, only had Mediacorp( C5, C8, Ch U, Suria, Vansatham & CNA ). (3) Lack of Amenities, basic shower gel & shampoo, instant coffee & tea bags provided, that's all. (4) Thankfully, the facilities are good, phew! (5) i was happy there was a rainshower, but if u wanted a Bathtub... u had to upgrade to a Suite. FYI. *Sorry i am out of topic, i am not talking about "Staycation Deals/Recommendations".
