Tripadvisor gives a Travellers’ Choice award to accommodations, attractions and restaurants that consistently earn great reviews from travellers and are ranked within the top 10% of properties on Tripadvisor.
This six storey hotel is built in a conservation shophouse along South Bridge Road, Singapore. The hotel offers our guests with easy access to any part of the city and is conveniently next to Raffles Place, Singapore’s busiest business hub. The hotel is also within walking distance to the Singapore River, which is in turn connected to three characteristic quays – Boat Quay, Clarke Quay and Robertson Quay. At night, party lovers will be thrilled by the line-up of pubs and restaurants that lights up the river banks with their vivid colours. For those who prefer a quieter atmosphere, take a short stroll further up to One Fullerton where you can enjoy the breath-taking views of Singapore’s night sky while being accompanied by several iconic landmarks such as the Esplanade, Marina Bay Sands and the Singapore Flyer.
Star ratings are intended to indicate the general level of features, amenities, and services to expect. This property is classified according to Giata.

Great for walkers
Places to stay are graded on a 0-100 scale. The higher the grade, the easier it is for travellers to find restaurants and things to do within walking distance.
Small rooms but clean, lots of room noise. I had a room with a window, but many don't. The room could have done with a full-length mirror. Also, there is no complimentary water but water fountains in the corridors if you have a water bottle. The location was good, and the bus stop was right outside the entrance, including the stop for the hop on, hop off bus.

The hotel is located in a beautiful location, on foot you can eat in many nice places (as many have already written just in front there is a bus stop). Spacious and new room. Excellent value for money. The only negative thing were the pillows too uncomfortable for the rest all very well.

The name is rather confusing and people do get confused with Robertson Quay Hotel.
The hotel main entrance is a bus stop and all taxis and grab cars have to stop across the road to disembark and embark passengers.
The rooms with window, which I had one, are noisy because of the vibrant nightlife around it. If you want a sound-proof, “premium room”, it is without window.
Room itself is poorly designed but clean though. Hardly any walking space between the TV and the bed. The TV does not work. Guess the remote control ran out of battery. The kettle had such a short cable that it cannot be plugged even to the nearest power point provided. Amazing but it is true, unfortunately.
Not the place to stay unless you like the night life and just want a place to recover from a hangover!

We stayed at the Quay for 3 nights and were very happy with our choice of accommodation. After reading some of the recent reviews we were a little apprehensive at what we were going to find but on arrival (and at all other times) the desk staff couldn’t have been more helpful and quickly showed us our room 301 at the front of the hotel. The room was clean, large enough, well laid out and the bathroom looked recently refurbished and clean.
The location is brilliant, 5-10 mins walk to Chinatown, Clarke Quay and close to bustling Boat Quay (turn right at the front of the hotel and head for the bridge)., 15 mins walk to Raffles Hotel, 10 mins walk to Fort Canning. The train system can be accessed at Chinatown or Clarke Quay, very easy to get to Gardens by the Bay, Cablecars, Little India, Kampong Glam, etc.
As our room was at the front of the hotel we were expecting it to be very noisy (as mentioned in previous reviews) but there was no night club / bar music and the road noise was no worse than a bad air con unit, perhaps we were lucky but all 3 nights were the same.
We felt secure with access only by room card in the evening and lift only able to be used after room card scan, also a good sized safe in the room.
Overall we were very happy with our stay at the Quay, we felt it was excellent value and would stay there again if we visit Singapore.
Tips - the Gardens by the Bay are free to access but go into some of the attractions they’re superb. The cablecars are a must / the boat trip from Clarke Quay to Marina Bay Sands is well worth it / Chinatown late markets are brilliant.

The hotel was located very near the Central Mall of Clarke Quay, and there's a bus stop right infront of the hotel so transportation is very easy in the area. The location is the best as the neighborhood along the street and around the area of the hotel has top notch bars, it's a different sight at night. Check in and check out was very quick as well. The room assigned to us was small but it was clean, spotless, had all the basic amenities with free 2 cans of 100 plus Soda which was a great addition to the hot weather of SG. The toilet and bath was clean as well. Love how well lit the room is and with so many outlets and charging stations. Thanks for a great stay!

The hotel is situated on a main road and as a result was very noisy at night. There is a bus stop outside which ran very late. Then there were the bin lorries which made even more noise. The room was reasonably capacious but there had been a water leak at sometime which resulted in stains on the walls. The bed seemed fairly clean but as soon as you looked at the mattress you wondered if anyone had cleaned the room. I have stayed in worse hotels but this was grim by any standard and nowhere near the level I would expect considering what we had paid. Basically if you had crossed the river Styx this is what you might have expected.

We loved the staff! They went out of their way for us. When they called us a taxi they always gave us the taxi number and most of the time went out and showed us the taxi and helped us in. On each floor we’re large bottles of water where you could refill your bottles. We had breakfast included and there was a good restaurant attatched to the hotel. At night it was a wonderful Thai food restaurant.

Room Tip: Best priced rooms have no windows. Didn’t think we’d like it but we did when we wanted to sleep in.

Stayed here for one night earlier this month as part of an effort to explore local neighbourhoods more, given that travel is no longer possible. Good central location. Fairly efficient checkin process, even with the additional Covid requirements. Room was small and without window but seemed to be recently renovated and had a comfortable bed and rain shower in the bathroom. Provided with 2 small bottles of water and 2 cans of 100 Plus. Water dispenser in the corridor. Large tv and a small fridge in the room. Main negative was neighbour noise: very thin walls and I didn’t sleep well as a result. But at this price point (paid around $95 including taxes) it was reasonable value for money for a 1 night stay.

DO NOT stay here if you want to get any sleep at all. First off, upon entering the room it was boiling hot, as the aircon only turns on if you're in the room and moving around, it also smelled like hot sewage. All the towels and pillow cases in my room were tattered, stained and/or had holes in them. There were hand prints and smudges all over the mirrors and windows as well. So overall it didn't feel very clean or taken care of, that i could kind of handle as it was in an ok location and had a bus stop out the front. What i could not deal with was the constant music until 3am blaring into the room! There is 0 sound proofing at all! It felt like i was sleeping in a night club! I had just arrived from a late night flight so i had no choice to stay, but i actually got 0 sleep. I played white noise out of my phone at full volume and I could still hear the bass from the night clubs on top of that!! It didn't stop until after 3am! You can also hear constant noise from other guests as well, but that was nothing compared to the music. I had to check out the next morning and find another hotel as i was supposed to stay 10 nights there but there was no way i could handle 0 sleep for 10 days. It was actually insane. The music coupled with the tatty bedding and towels just makes this place a horrible place to stay. 0 out of 10, would never stay again.

My wife had a Reservation more than a month ago, it was made by Booking, with one day to go they cancelled it without saying anything else that the Reservation had been cancelled. This meant that we had to get a hotel at the last minute and at a fairly high price, which for Singapore are already quite expensive accommodations. We wrote and they never answered.

There is not a pool at the hotel. The advantage with this hotel- besides low prices and very good service by the staff- is being located very near to main attractions of Singapore. There is also a stop right outside the hotel fir jump on- jump off sightseeing throug Singapore to a very modest price. If you need taxi to airport - people in the reception will see to you get a taxi to a fair and modest price and they will tell you what nearby places you can have a very good dinner in a relaxing athmosphere for a modest price.
There are more places to choose from in the Singapore area.
