Stayed at this hotel in October 2011 - we arrived in Singapore at ~2am and had a 6 hour stopover before catching a connecting flight. We were looking for somewhere cheap to rest before the next flight - and this hotel matched our needs. It was reasonably priced (for Singapore) and didn't sound quite as seedy as some of the... More

booked this hotel online for one night stay and expressed absolute necessity for twin bed room. Upon check in was told we had a double room but despite protestations we were told no twin bed room was available. Two packets of 3 in one coffee were available (not good if you require black coffee or coffee with no sugar) This... More

Cleanliness: Filthy. No fresh towels even after room is supposedly serviced. Customer service: Non-existent. Took them hours to bring us a clean towel. Location: So-so. Worst experience ever. Booked for 4 nights. Found out that hotel evicted us from our room on our last night coming back from a day of sight seeing! Without our knowledge staff took all of... More

If you want to have peace of mind during your vacation, then do not book a room here at all costs! My family and I have just recently returned from our holiday in Singapore, and on our last night, we came back to The Fragrance Hotel - Joo Chiat to find ourselves moved out of our room without our knowledge....

Superior Room, 15sqm (including bathroom) and the most uncomfortable bed we have ever tried to sleep on. A cotton sheet over a pvc/vinyl covered mattress is just impossible. But, it cost just over USD50 a night. :-) Disaster? No! Fantastic area, stepping back into 1970's Singapore with so many excellent restaurants (not so cheap though - this is Singapore), turn... More

The Hotel Joo Chiat is 10-15 min away from the airport, located between the East Coast Road and the Red-light-district, Geylang, a nice malaysian neighborhood with a few restaurants, bars and two malls in walking distance. The hotel is not expensive for singapore, the room was clean, with everything you need for one or two nights and for singapore standards... More

We checked in around midnight, and very upset to see the room cleanliness/hygienic. More than 10 little roaches moved across the room. After complained, staff transferred us to another fragrance hotel. Just avoid if possible More

I find this hotel very satisfactory during our 3 nights stay. The location is quiet during daytime and a little bit busy in the evening. It is located in a mixed residential, commercial and KTV bars. Although there are KTV bars in the area, tourists are most welcome and not being harrassed by the pretty girls around, unlike in other... More

One of the budget hotels on joo chiat rd. We took the "family room" and just about squeezed in, thats 2 adults, 1 child and 1 infant. If you are just looking for a place to crash at the end of the day, this will just about do. You would have a hard time ignoring the little roaches that populate... More
