Hotels near Somerset, Singapore

The hotel was a little run down from the lobby, but the rooms were acceptable but far from being great. Location was great and convenient, close to Orchard Road shopping malls and the MRT.

let’s me say my thinking: 1/ when I arrived it was uncomfortable situation on reception by asking me if I’m sure that I want to have one bed cuz there were two guys. We fine with both, but I don’t think that it is reception business who sleeps how. For me I like big bed and two blankets that give you more space. Especially with friend I travel for years; 2/ I never tried swimming pool so I have no idea if it is good or not; 3/ I have to admit beddings and pillows are very good quality and very clean, no objections, this is 100% satisfied; 4/ room is very “tired”. The carpet done of the pieces, it is very old; 5/ room smells moldy and a/c doesn’t work good enough to dry it, so due to high humidity it is not so good; 6/ I remember that 4* hotel should provide you with 3 types of towel for person: face, hands, body towels, however you will get one. Yes, they change it everyday, but it will be one per day. Besides, the quality is very low and sometimes old with holes; 7/ all environment is old and broken: shower, cabinet, old and smelly carpet; 8/ if you use toilet be sure: other will be disturbed by lights and by whatever you do in toilet - 0 of privacy; 9/ we had only one lamp in the shower, it was feeling so dark, like im in the house basement. Conclusion: location good and beddings clean. Rest not. I suggest to pay 50$ more per night but get something much better.

I love their spacious kitchen - where you can cook small items or heat up your food, and the loft bed in the room - where I have my own cozy little sleeping space to rest. The only turn off was that there were a lot of murmurs around downstairs from Indians loitering around at night, so it will be nice to bring your own noise reduction ear buds if you want to have a peaceful rest.

This hotel was great! Reasonable price, clean, and I'd definitely stay here again next time. We had a wonderful time visiting the Singapore Zoo, S.E.A. Aquarium, and Clarke Quay. The hotel is also very close to Orchard Road!

For this price, don't expect too much from the cleanliness. Lower your expectations, and you might find it just about okay. The pros: It's close to the Rainbow Police Station, Fort Canning Park, and the Little India temple. Public transport and MRT stations are a guaranteed 10-minute walk away, and there's a 7-Eleven within 5 minutes. Even though it was hot and we were tired in the afternoon, the kids still had energy, so we let them go to the pool. It's small, which is good, and not too deep, so I just relaxed on a lounge chair while they had a blast all afternoon. Clarke Quay is right next door. Cleanliness is just average, and the rooms are small. Next time, if I increase my budget slightly, I'd stay at the Ascott Roberson House nearby.

I had a pleasant experience. I booked a room without a window, which was located in the basement, so there was some music noise coming from above at times. However, the room was clean and comfortable. The pillow was a bit firm for my preference, and the hotel did not provide an iron, which would have been helpful. On the bright side, the staff were very kind and allowed us to store our luggage for free when we arrived early before check-in, which was greatly appreciated.

Loved the Location many tourists attractions near by also two train stations at walking distance and 7/11 near by too, had a good sleep overall, though is important to have considerate people staying there as the capsules are quite fragile and you can here everything really. The team was amazing,really helpful and caring! ❤️Marie at the reception was lovely and friendly🫶🏻

The main disappointment during our stay was the interaction with the reception staff, particularly Annie. After being informed that the hairdryer would be located in a specific drawer—which turned out to be empty—we called reception to request one. Her response over the phone came across as noticeably annoyed. When she arrived at the room, her first instruction was for us to open the drawers, at which point the hairdryer was found in the last drawer, stored together with a Bible. This raised concerns about internal communication and whether housekeeping checks were properly carried out prior to check-in, especially since the hairdryer was not placed where guests were told it would be. In addition, despite clearly specifying a double bed during the booking process, this request could not be accommodated. As this was communicated in advance, it was disappointing and affected the overall comfort of our stay. If this property were classified as an inn, it would be acceptable; however, as a hotel, it falls short. I am quite particular about cleanliness and upkeep, and unfortunately both were lacking. Maintenance standards felt low overall, particularly the bathroom ceiling ventilation fan. While I understand that the entrance carpet is intended for shoe removal, being greeted by a visibly dirty carpet is quite off-putting. The so-called “terrace” is essentially an open space with two plants and a wall planter illuminated by spotlights. While the intention to reference the Shakkei design principle is appreciated, but the execution and level of maintenance leave much to be desired. As other reviewers have mentioned, sound insulation is very poor. Footsteps in the corridor are clearly audible, and we happened to stay next to a family, with noise continuing late into the night. The shower area itself is semi-open with a grid pergola soffit, and we could even hear a neighbouring guest singing in the shower—which is completely normal and not the guest’s fault—but it does highlight how thin the soundproofing is. While the design intent is evident, better maintenance and acoustic consideration would have made a significant difference. If you’re considering paying extra for breakfast, it’s not worth it. It’s not served on-site—you have to walk out to either the German breakfast spot, Bread Beer & Brez’n, or Killiney Kopitiam, where the options are very basic (just two soft-boiled eggs and toast). It’s easier and more cost-effective to simply step out or order in breakfast instead, as there are plenty of other food options nearby at a better price.

At first, I saw that 2 stars hotel might not good for weekend trip. But this hotel have changed my mind. I happy with this place. The service super good. I could say that I satisfied the hotel receptionists. They served all the things I want and clearly explained the questions I have. I would recommend this hotel for someone who finding the greatest budget hotel!

The room was extremely dirty and clearly not properly maintained. There was thick dust on multiple surfaces and a noticeable moldy condition. I tried wiping parts of the room myself, and the tissues turned completely black. Within a short time, I had filled an entire bin just from cleaning. Other than that, the toilet was clean and the location is good. I hope the hotel can improve their cleanliness standards.
