Stay Where Culture and Modernity Collides
Located at Cross St in the middle of the CBD, the Clan Hotel is a modern hotel with culture as it’s foundation. A stay in this hotel is an experience that’s worth trying. From the entrance to check-out, everything is well though out. The interior and services offered all align with the nostalgia that the hotel wants the guests to experience. I also love the concept that even in the middle of the CBD, the high-rise hotel will remind you of the old times, that there was a tradition present and still continuing in these modern streets.
The entrance of the hotel is discreet and to reach the main lobby, you must take a lift. The lobby greeting you is impressive. I felt intimidated with the high ceiling and décor. The interior felt very Asian-inspired with the heavy use of wood and dark colours. The floor to ceiling windows shows a view of the surrounding shophouses which completes the concept of the hotel. As what I’ve read, a tea ritual will be done for guests upon check-in. When we checked-in though there was no ritual done, but instead we just got served the biscuit and tea while waiting for the check-in process to be done. We enjoyed the night swim in one of the hotel’s facilities, the sky pool. The view from the pool is amazing!
What I loved the most with our stay is the room. We booked a Grand Premier Double Room with great views since it’s a corner room. The bathtub is the main reason we booked this room. It’s so pretty! The room also has the mini bar items that we chose upon booking time. Whenever I choose a hotel, I always gravitate towards hotels that offer something unique and different. The room came with our own tea set including the tea and biscuits. I enjoyed the room more because of these amenities and features. The breakfast included was served in their in-house restaurant, Qin Restaurant & Bar. We chose from a selection available, and it was delicious!
The location of the hotel is good since there’s an MRT close, Telok Ayer station. The hotel is also near tourist spots. There are also lots of dining options outside the hotel if you plan to eat outside. I would love to stay at this hotel again!
