Travelled as a family with kids aged 10 and 8. Stayed in a deluxe room with king bed and rollaway. Booked late so was unable to get family room. Room was fine but recommend book family room as room gets crowded Hotel in a beautiful location with lots of greenery surrounding the hotel. The hotel has a pool and kids enjoyed it but there is no kids club and no kids pool or really anything for the kids to do. There was a water park near by but it was being renovated. Signs said the park was due to open end 2011. If this had been opened, it would have been perfect for the kids. If you want to stay close to the hustle and bustle of sentosa then this is not the hotel to stay. The staff were all very curtious. We had breakfast Included which I would recommend. Breakfast was excellent with loads of choices. We ate at the Pavillion a few times which is the cheapest of all the restaurants but it is still expensive. If you see ++ next to a price this means that you need to add 7% gst and 10% service charge. I would recommend jumping on the free shuttle bus to Vivo City ( shopping complex) as there are plenty of places to eat. The free yellow line bus stops in front of the hotel and takes you into sentosa and here you will also find a few eating spots including McDonalds. We bought the Sentosa day play pass which entitles you to 15 attractions between 10am and 7pm. Kids loved the luge ride, going on the segway, and the 4D Pirate show. This pass cost us approx SD 243.00 but we only managed to do 7 attractions. It was a public holiday during Chinese New Year and Sentosa was very very crowded. We all enjoyed the Songs of the Sea show. Would recommend Universal Studios but if it's busy buy the express pass ( separate rides line with few people in the line) as we were waiting in line for rides between 30-50 minutes and therefore didn't get to see all the attractions. Singapore zoo was excellent. Best zoo we have seen. You can feed the elephants for $5 after the elephant show and you can also ride on the elephants. There is also a water park in the zoo so bring the kids bathers. There is a free shuttle bus from the hotel to Paragon shopping centre on Orchard Rd. Every designer label imaginable Is on Orchard Rd. I found orchard road expensive so if you are looking for bargains you won't find it here. Went on the Singapore flyer which was excellent. Cab ride approx $10.
