Hotels near Grandfather’s Collections

Been trying out countless of hotels in Singapore for staycations, as compared to other 5 star establishments, Hotel G is comparable in terms of comfort. Though it is a 4 star property and rooms are rather small, I do not have any major complains, rather I have good feedback to give. Staff: Jacob at the front desk was a man of few words, but he has a smile on all the time and he does his best to impress. He made my 2nd or 3rd (I don't remember) stay with Hotel G much better than my first when it was still named BIG hotel. Rooms: Toilet could be done cleaner and more spotless. As for the room/desk area, no complains as of now. Keep it up! Restaurant: With the introduction of Ginett (I don't know if I spelt that right) The restaurant has been a great addition to the establishment. Just that, breakfast selection feels lazy and bland, nothing special and could be improved. So much potential in the breakfast choices. Overall, there is so much room for improvement even though they are already doing well. Keep it up Jacob and the rest of the staff at Hotel G!

One of the best hotels I stayed in Singapore! The front desk staff was really welcoming, he upgraded my room to a suite even though I only stayed for one night. The price is good for its service, location and the room itself. It's only 1 mins walk to Bencoolen MRT station and 5 mins walk to Orchard Rd. The room is spacious with huge window facing the main road. Best thing of the hotel is that they provide you with Handy smartphone that you can bring outside the hotel to access the internet so if you don't get a SIM card or wifi pocket in Singapore, this is really handy (no pun intended). There is convenience store and food court that's open until 2 AM just across the street. I definitely will be coming back next time I visit Singapore!

My 3rs visit to Singapore and best busdget hotel. This is a hotel in a perfect location Bencoolan street. - Bar BasarMRT,Bencoolan bus station and Rendezvous Hotel bus staion is few meters from hotel. - A new MRT is coming up just in front of the hotel - Many food places around such as food republic, star bucks, Subway, and many more. - Very easy access to all locations. 2 bus stops to Bugis or 10 minutes walk. 15 - 20 minutes walk to Clark Quay and little India, 5 minutes to Raffles mall. - Very spacious rooms , very clean and comfortable . Has all amenties in the room.

V hotel Bencoolen is a nice budget hotel. When I first booked this hotel, i didnt realize that this hotel is literally next to the MRT Station. It is really convenience for us to travel anywhere in Singapore with this MRT. Before the MRT Station, V hotel is always located near the food area.We didnt have to book any breakfast at the hotel because our surrounding is full with small restaurant and kopitiam. This hotel has a great value of money. With around when I first booked it, it was the best hotel ive ever booked. But, there is also another he location is also superb and has more food around it. The hotel is so a bit bigger than Bencoolen. So, if you want to book, try first; it could be full (I got that twice); then try V hotel Bencoolen

Stayed at the Ibis Hotel along Bencoolen Street for a total of 3 days and two nights. It had a very good atmosphere to it and I will definitely come back here the next time. Lets start off with the hotel itself, choices of colours for its interior of the hotel lobby and its room were spot on. Staff were very welcoming for my needs. Rooms were very clean, especially the toilet. A nice touch were the usage of wooden parquet floors for the room which made the whole stay more cozy. I would also suggest to book a room that comes with the extra benifits, things like the "Handy Smartphone" which allows you to make unlimited and FREE calls to your loved ones to most of the countries makes the stay more desirable as you are constantly being connected. Oh and not to mention, you can also bring that phone out with you so you can use it anytime and anywhere...and of course WiFi is also available in your own room. Location wise, the hotel is conveniently located about 5 to 10 minutes walk away from the Bugis MRT station which is beneath a shopping centre. Bugis Street is along the corner as well which makes it a breeze for you to get food especially in the day. There is also an indian mamak restaurant located opposite of the hotel if indian food is in mind for supper that is opened throughtout the night. I also found out that there were two 7-Elevens nearby, one of which is located just next to the hotel itself. All in all, I enjoyed my stay here and I highly reccomend it. Sweet, Smart Simple, Clean, Cozy and Convenient. Those are the words best to describe this hotel. Good job Ibis Hotel!

Booked a King bedroom for 2 nights and absolutely enjoyed the stay. Room is spacious and clean, and comes with great view of the hotel's vicinity. Love that the material used for the design of the hotel corridors and room is mainly wood, which gives off a very comfortable feeling. Hotel lobby is located at level 25, and while the desk counters are not very prominent, the staff are very efficient and helpful in providing any assistance. Breakfast spread is tasty, and the gym is well equipped too! Superb location that is linked to Bugis MRT and shopping malls as well. Overall one of the best staycations I've ever had in Singapore. Will definitely come back again!

When I booked the hotel I saw there’s a swimming pool facility but didn’t realize it was an infinity pool so nice even though the backdrop is not as good as MBS, it’s still a stunning view of the city. Staff are very professional and very helpful especially when I requested to deposit my backpack for a month while I travel away and everything was intact and safe. The location is superb and WiFi connection is very good! One of the best connection in the world. The only thing I don’t quite like is the shower and toilet room design are too small. It’s silly to separate them making it harder to go in and out of shower. Lastly the cleaner is quite stingy in issuing the toiletries especially only give one shower gel bottle every day even though I was staying alone in a 2 persons room I booked for 5 nights. The cleaners did not issue standard toiletries. I also have to ask for moisture lotion as well. There are 2 standard water bottles everyday which is very pleasant and nice of the hotel.

This hotel is really clean with decent size rooms, great pool, very friendly staff. It is really good value for money for Singapore, as I got it in a pretty good deal with breakfast. Breakfast is mostly western-style buffet and it is ok, nothing amazing. Some things can run out if you eat late. The hotel is located about 4-5 minute walk from Nicolle MRT station, with last train at about midnight. Taxis are easy to use too. The hotel is not located in the most touristy area in Singapore, but it is also not as noisy. There are a few hotels nearby, an office biulding, hawkers markets just across the road, a few resturants, 7/11 a few minutes walk- so you will see a mix of locals and tourists on the street. Overall this is a good and safe area, and it is about 2 km from Marina Bay so it is all very close. This hotel is good if you’re looking for an affordable option for a decent 4 star hotel in a great location and willing to compromise for the luxury and famous hotel strip experince.

My boyfriend and I booked this hotel for our staycation to celebrate Vday last weekend. We got a free upgrade to a premier room (which was totally awesome) even though we paid at a really affordable price from agoda. Best things were good location (a stone's throw to nearby shopping Bugis Junction, Bugis +, museums, tons of restaurants and food places such as Macdonalds and convenience stores), cleanliness of the room, and a really affordable price. Given that the price we paid for a 4-star hotel, I must say I am pretty impressed. I will definitely come back for more staycations!

Don't let the 3 stars fool you. This is an absolutely excellent hotel in a great location, just a few minutes walk from Rochor and Bugis MRT stations. Plenty of shopping and food around the area. Rooms are relatively small, but clean and modern, nice beds and pillows. And the bathroom! Whoah. Clinically clean, shiny, with the "extras" you usually only see in 4 and 5 star hotels. And with plenty of water, both hot and cold. Taking a shower here was a pleasure. A decent although not fantastic breakfast. Absolutely recommended! I would stay here again.

This is not a 5* hotel so one should not compare. I had a great stay as always. The receptionists may not smile much, but they are friendly n check-in is a breeze! The standard rooms are not very small or cramp, in fact, is a reasonable size. They provide almost all the basic necessities, except for toothbrush & toothpaste n a mini bar/fridge - Standard room. But the rates are worth it despite its an old hotel. But the location is excellent. A walk to the nearest MRT is only less than 5mins! I have stayed her quite a few times, which i enjoyed staying; more than my current place (having to squeez in a roon with my sister). Not forgetting there is also a food court just behind the hotel n it take a mere 3-min walk! Will be back again n its 1 of my fav 3 star hotel to rest n chill with lotsa privacy. Take note: The aircon temp can be really cold - Which is good! Those who are afraid of the cold, remember to have ur jacket ready. Late check-out i got was only til 12.30pm, never once had 1 or 2pm check-out - Could be due to high occupancy. No room service but lotsa eateries around, so no complains. There's also drink vending machines and free ice machine located on certain floors. - Thumb up!

I visited Singapore to attend a Faculty Seminar at the National University of Singapore & used the spare time touring. The nearest Bras Basah MRT station is just a 1-2 minute walk from the hotel and the next Dhoby Ghaut MRT interchange is only 1 station away which conveniently allows transfer to all 3 MRT lines. Eateries among others such as American fastfood Wendy's and Kopitiam offering a wide variety of Asian and Western food are just within the hotel vicinity. Since the hotel is situated in the heart of the Singapore business and shopping district, places of interest are also near such as the Singapore Museum, Orchard Center, Raffles Place, Esplanade, Merlion, etc. The hotel room may be small but not tightly contained. The room is reasonably designed and conducive, with adequate in-room amenities such as lcd TV, open wardrobe cabinet, hair dryer, electric water pot, refrigerator, landline telephone, electronic alarm clock, & bed side control of the lights and aircon. Hotel safety and security is adequate with the issuance of an access card that serves as an elevator pass & door room key with the provision of an electronic safebox inside the room. Everyday room service kept the room and bathroom always clean and orderly. Bathroom hot water is available and water pressure is excellent. There are few TV channels with the lack of popular cable channels such as HBO, CNN, etc; whereas there are limited good English programs. Had a comfortable sleep in bed and a pleasant stay in this hotel with a good and clear window view of Bencoolen Street & would definitely book here again. -Professor LEE MARK

Well, Actually i never planned to choose this hotel while on Singapore. but it turns out to be one of the best things that happen on my trip. Location : very near from bugis location, surrounded by a very interesting street such as Arab Street and the most instragramable street on SG , Haji Lane. for moslem i highly reccomended this place coz you cant found a lot of tasty and halal food around, with a view of the biggest mosque in SG. Cleanliness : Room is very compact as i can tell, very comfort with a new interior there. Staff: Well they are exceptional. very kind and broad smile on their face. never bother us and always provide everything that we need . Facilities : Room is very modern. they provide us a phone that allowed us to make a call or browsing. and the best thing is they rent it for free and we can use it outside the hotel. they provide a still and sparkling water near the receptionist which is very good deal cos a bottle of water can cost you 1 dollar there. Overall, i am very satisfied on my first visit on nuve hotel. i will go back for sure. and i very recommend this place for a solo or couple traveler, who want to save money but not feeling ease to living on hostel. this is 3 star hotel that feels like a 4 star hotel. Conclusion : Highly Recommended !

it was actually our second preference apartment but fate had changed it to be our best hotel in singapore so far. we have a young daughter who is very active. a park around the corner, easy access to bus stops that take u literally everywhere, walking distance to mrt makes travel easily planned. tugged a little away from orchard meant the apartment was reasonably priced. hotel facilities were comparable to 3 star hotel. its free internet access is well appreciated. finally, all around nice friendly staff frm reception, housekeeping, kitchen, even maintainence.

We booked this hotel as we were attending an Expo at the Suntec Centre for four days. This hotel was within walking distance so it was conveniently located. It was one of the least expensive options however it was probably the best budget hotel I have stayed in Singapore. It is 100% better than last years (more expensive choice) only 100 further away. The room is what you expect from Singapore, small, however it was clean, comfortable with good internet and will be booking this hotel again for next years expo. If you are aware that you are getting a budget hotel then this will not disappoint. Good job guys.

HI, I had be staying in hotel Royal @ Queen a lot of time. From the moment you check in until you check out the service of the hotel is the best. They really there to help you and providing the best information to your question. The breakfast is nice too. Only 1 thing which during my very first time staying in this hotel's feedback to the hotel and until at this lastest stay ( 18 Jan 2016 ) that the hotel still never improve is having stay in this 4 star hotel they can't even provide 2 free mineral water to the room guests. The hotel must ALWAYS remember is small little refreshment will impact a great image of the hotel and happy of the guest whom travel 10 over hrs of flight to here ( singapore )which you can get 3 bottle NTUC mineral only cost 95 cents. A bit of cost but can bring back a lot guests to the hotel. please look into my suggestion. thank hope to see some changes when I am back to this hotel again,

Outstanding housekeeping service who took the time to observe our needs and made subtle additions to our room (i.e. Highly absorbent soft woolly floor mat, extra complimentary bottles of Polar mineral water, etc). Room were already impeccable to start with. As a tea drinker, I greatly appreciated the complimentary collection of high quality TWG teas provided in the room. This is one of very few 5 Star hotels in Singapore with direct access to 2 large shopping malls and an MRT Station on the highly popular East-West line. Also has one of the largest 24 hr in-house hotel gyms I have been to.

Well, when booked this hotel I actually didn't realize there are two Bencoolens there: the hotel and a "serviced apartments" which I luckily booked. We got a 2-bedroom (plus living room) apartment, with complete kitchen and two bathrooms. The apt is little bit shubbed and some ceiling paint would help, but all the rest is very good: spacious, clean, comfortable. The kind-of-buffet breakfast is very basic, but if you are not too spoiled you will not leave hungry. The real advantages are: very good location (the taxi stand in front of the hotel, MRT station is less than 1 min walking, main attractions are in 10-15 min waling distance), the pool (including jaccuzi and toddler's pool) and kids playground on a top of the 12th floor, nice patio on the 5th floor. My conclusion : very good accommodation for budget famiky travelers!

I arrived very late in the evening as my plane was delayed but this did not matter; as when I arrived at the hotel, my suitcase was collected and all I needed to do as a weary traveler was to sign in. The lift made getting upstairs easy and the air conditioned room made my stay very comfortable. The hallways were quiet and inside the room I didn't hear anything. The bed in the room was very comfortable and after travelling for over 16 hours; though the clock had gone round 26 hours because of the time zone differences was very welcome. The bathroom was very clean and housed a very impressive shower. I was very impressed with the courtesy and warm manner that the staff offered and even was able to get a cup of tea long after the kitchen had closed. The hotel provides free wi-fi which allowed me to check my emails and catch up. The location of the hotel is very close to Bugis Station which meant having the freedom to travel as a local to get around. The swimming pool and other facilities are free to guests and on my next stay I will try them out as I ran out of time on this trip. When I am in Singapore next, I would be happy to stay at this hotel again.

I had stayed at the Parc Sovereign in 2015, so booked to stay there this year on the basis of my previous experience, when my wife and I recently had a holiday in Singapore. My wife was surprised to see the small size of the room but, since a hotel in Singapore is only somewhere for one to store suitcases and sleep, it wasn't a problem - if you want bigger rooms then maybe stay at the Marina Bay Sands, but then you'll have $300 or so less to spend on food and clothes shopping every day. There is a restaurant attached to the hotel - but it's so close to excellent hawker centres like Tekka Centre & Queen St, food courts at Bugis Junction and Broadway, and also very close to three MRT stations at Bugis, Little India and Rochor - that you don't need to go there if you want to sample that fantastic cheap food for which Singapore is famous. The environment of the hotel was a little shabby although the corridors were being painted while we were there. The pool was adequate, and the staff were welcoming enough and helpful if approached; when we arrived and collected our room keys, we found we were in a double room despite asking for twin beds on the booking. The room was immediately changed with no problems, and an apology from the girl in reception. Looking forward to staying there again.

We booked the hotel for our 4-day trip in Singapore. It was very easy to find. We took the train from the airport and did not encounter any concerns finding the hotel. The signage outside the building was exactly as it was shown in Agoda. When we arrived, we found it easy to find out what to do since directions were indicated on the first floor of the building. Guests can rely on the green signage outside plus there's a sticker that says "85" on the glass door. We took the lift to the 2nd floor and when we showed the booking print-out from Agoda, we were checked-in rather quickly. Our room was on the 6th floor, so we were instructed to pass through the 2nd floor all-the-time on the way up since an access card from the staff is needed to go up. Location is superb being very close to Suntec City and Bugis. There's also a ton of food places within a 3 to 5 minute walk from the hotel. Staff was always ready to help. Bed was just the right size for two people, though we wished they provided two single blankets instead of one big sheet. We also didn't ask to change it, so we made do with what was provided. We can sometimes hear sounds (either voices of people speaking from other rooms or sounds coming from the pipes, maybe for their toilets & water system). TV standby blue light was impossible to turn off, so we had to find a way to cover it. The cleaning lady was superb, she was so nice and even reminded us that she hasn't given us our complimentary bottled water. It's a good place, considering the price, for a place to sleep and take a bath.

Great hotel and wonderful friendly staff. We have met some trouble few days before our traveling period. However, the hotel staff try all their best to help us and provide the best service to us. Me and my friend came from 2 different countries, and only my friend will be arriving at the hotel, and she only can speak a little bit English only, however, when I write an email to the hotel, their efficiency on replying email and also arrangement to help my friend who came from Japan is just fantastic and appreciated. Never-ever thought that we have booked a very nice hotel and great staff. Hotel location just nice, friendly and helpful staff is the best, cleanliness of the hotel perfect. I asked my friend how's she going to rate the hotel for overall, without thinking, she replied me 10/10! Great hotel ever. And will return back to the hotel again. Last but not least, thank you very much to the hotel staff and also manager. We definitely will go back to stay with you again and introduce to everyone. TQ~

I wasn't expecting too much when I booked a room for me and my mom as I was only after the location of the hotel since I read from the other reviews that it's practically just a stroll away from most of the places we were planning to visit. When we arrived, I was pleasantly surprised since the room is bigger compared to the usual 3 star hotels around the Bugis area. Although customer service of the staff is average which is normal in Singapore, I did enjoy the convenience plus I also love the view from our room. Despite the fact that we were just at the 3rd floor, we didn't hear any noise coming from the road. It was also great that we had so many options when it comes to food and places to go to. I would definitely recommend this hotel to my friends.

walking distance 5-7min to metro station. I didn't have to use bus to get anywhere else. The metro covered most of the attraction: marina sand bay, vivo city to sentosa, etc. Room was clean and roomy (compared to other hotel). We used to stay at B.Hotel and man, it barely has room to breath. Affordable price with great location together with good staff. It doesn't have toothpaste and toothbrush so you gotta bring your own. We don't have restaurant inside the building but just downstairs we have Malaysian/ Idian food corner. Walking 3 min, you will get to Tekka food court with Indian/Chinese/ Jap/ Korea/ all kind of food. It is good and cheap, even though the quality might not be as good as Michelin 1 star booth or Tian Tian chicken rice but it's 3min away so who cares. Overall will stay here next time until I can find a better place with the same price, and I doubt it could happen in this lifetime.

In general everything is beautiful, the white and black highlights make the Adonis Rich in Class. Starting from your welcome drink which is refreshing, all the way until you check out, you will be treaty like royalty. This is the very best hotel that I have experienced in all my travels, looking forward to coming back with my fiancee. The room is so relaxing I almost forgot I was there on business!Everyone went out of their way to ensure all my needs were met. need a reminder? they will call you to notify you of Breakfast, lunch. or dinner. I hope they don't change a thing with their hotel everything is purrrfect!

I think you can't better hotel in Singapore at this price. Elegant and practical design for their relative spacious room (I like the shower room especially), quite at night, some cheap spa nearby, a nice indian restaurant open till late, etc. Of course it's not in the best area but considering the size of Singapore, it's still a better to spend a little more on taxi but much less on hotel. Staff are efficient and helpful, no complaint, but on my departure date there was some sort of video shooting in lobby, I was not informed so when I walked out of elevator the crew were staring right at me like I walked into a wrong place (it's c/o time what did I suppose to do ...) finally they allowed me out of the elevator to finish my c/o, but I had to drag myself and luggage out to wait for my taxi on the street because the lobby was still occupied ... By the way, want to thank the reception in their sister hotel at Sultan Street, she helped me to find the right hotel while taxi dropped me at the wrong place when I arrived.

The receptionists are very helpful and accommodating. They even helped us find places to go to buy souveniers. The hotel has free wifi. The rooms in 6th flr are big and cozy. You dont hear any noise. Better to get high flr rooms because the hotel is located in front of the main road and bus station so if you are staying on the 2nd flr you would hear the sound of the vehicles. In general, I can say that this is a good pick for travellers who want to go to attractions in SG because it is located in the middle of the city. Easy to book grab too from the hotel.
