The old beauty is lost with the big screens, wires and speakers everywhere. Outside is well taken care of, inside needs more care - cane pews wearing out and not being replaced, floor tiles crumbling and need replacing. More

Beautiful and spacious. Worthy of a walk in. The compounds are large, despite being in a very expensive part of town. More

This Cathedral is just about the City Hall MRT station. A real gem. Beautifully preserved, as with everything in Singapore. More

Cathedral was built by Indian convict labourers; it's an oasis of colonial architecture amidst Singapore's often-glorious modern architecture. Great that some of the old buildings have been so well preserved. More

One of the few remaining Pre-war Churches in Singapore. The Architect is beautiful and the location is in the City. Good way to spend a quiet morning. More

St Andrew's Cathedral recently celebrated its 150th anniversary. It is a beautifully constructed building of historic importance in this former colony of Singapore. Plaques honouring former officers of the British government provide an idea of the role played by the British administrators in the history of the country. The Cathedral is architecturally impressive and much care has been taken to... More

Hard to advise a fellow traveler on this as the reason why I look for hotels near this Church (Cathedral) is because I enjoy attending the Mass here. The church architecture is supposed to be one of its highlights but as I do not focus much on the physical aspects of this place it is unfair for me to rate... More
