There wasn't any fridge, i had to change room because the aircon was super noisy and loud. And then the bed made me feel itchy , I got a few insect bites idk from whr but it was after lying down on the bed but overall ok la for the price
Response from Property: Dear Guest,It is a pleasure hosting you in Fragrance Hotel Rose.In-room chillers are available at our higher tiered rooms which just require a small top up fee to enjoy the room upgrade. We recommend that you lower the fan speed of the aircon to reduce the noise. Our hotel maintains a regular and stringent routine of pest and housekeeping management, including performing pest control treatment on a regular basis. Pest manifestation is a serious matter and we had initiated a thorough investigation based on your feedback. We have confirmed that no bugs or insects has been found in the room. Nonetheless, we will step up inspections to mitigate such experience.We appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you for a better experience in the near future.Warm Regards,JanetGuest Experience Executive

Very bad experience. Paid 90 dollars a night for a room that wasn’t at all like the pictures and with shower not working. After our complaints and too much time and remonstrance from them, we have our room changed, but even on this we barely had a shower, as hot water lasted for 30 seconds. Even the staff, despite their politeness, was totally unprepared to manage. On reviews they keep answering that in premium city like Tokyo, Singapore and blablabla the room are small and whatev. So the reason for not having hot water (or at least not enough for two guest for 30 seconds shower each), a towel that common people use for hands and hotel provide as shower towel, general cleanliness lacking and deceptive pictures is because Singapore is expensive? Reality is just they can’t guarantee high or just acceptable standards. Just choose something else, this place is unsatisfactory in every way
Response from Property: Dear John,Thank you for sharing your experience with us.We are sorry that your stay did not meet your expectations. As a no-frills budget hotel, our goal is to provide affordable and comfortable accommodation with essential amenities. Regarding the room looking different from the images on the booking platform, please be assured that two buildings form the same hotel, but as they have undergone renovations at different times, resulting in some variation in design and decor. We apologise for any confusion caused and will ensure that our front desk provides clearer information during check-in.Our hotel maintains a regular and stringent routine of housekeeping management and the rooms are inspected before assigning them to our guests. Please accept our sincere apologies for being unable to meet your expectations for housekeeping. Our housekeeping supervisor has received your feedback and are working hard to ensure our housekeeping services meets our very high standards for our guests' benefit.The shower is working and unlimited hot water is available in the room, you just need to switch on the the heater via a switch just outside the bathroom. We apologise if our responses in the past reviews gave the wrong impression. Our intent is to provide context about room sizes in cities like Singapore, where space is generally more compact compared to other destinations. We wish to clarify that the cost of living or space constraints shuld not affect cleanliness, amenities or the accurancy of our photos.Our team aims to provide friendly and efficient service to all guests, however, despite our best efforts, we regret that we are unable to meet your very high standards and respect your opinion that it is better for you to choose something else.We wish you a pleasant holiday in Singapore.Regards,JanetGuest Experience Executive

I have business trip stayed here for 2 nights, assisted by a front office named Mr Alan, He was very good at providing information and also very friendly, For the location strategic for taking the public transportation (bus) Room cleanliness is quite ok, It just needs to be improved again especially the floor of the room and bathroom, The rest is quite good!

The room is small but it’s clean, and knowing the price rates in Singapore for hotels, this is a decent one. It’s also near hawker places so it was easy to get good food at a fair price. We booked two rooms (one for me + my niece, and one for my nephew’s family). My nephew’s family encountered smell problems with the room they’re in and when I talked to the manager, he was very kind and accommodating that they helped them move into a better room right away. If I decided to come back to Singapore in the future, I’ll definitely consider booking at Fragrance Hotel again.
Response from Property: Dear annajessc,Thank you for staying with us and appreciating our highly competitive room rates. We appreciate your positive comments of your hotel stay for our clean rooms and convenient location, and we are glad to know that you had been well taken care of during your stay with us. You are correct to point out that our hotel is in the vicinity of many affordable and good eateries. We hope to see you again on your next visit to Singapore!Warm Regards,RolandGuest Experience Executive

The location of hotel not closed to mrt station, but they many buses pick up/drop off at the main road. They are many restaurants surrounding within walking distance. The room is suitable for short stay.
Response from Property: Dear Guest,We appreciate your feedback on our location. While we understand that our location may seemed far away, but there is a bus stop located near our hotel which can conveniently take you to the nearest MRT station or directly to the city center.We hope our services and amenities made up for any inconvenience you may have experienced.We hope to see you again on your next visit to Singapore.Warm Regards,JanetGuest Experience Executive
