Tai Hoe is a modern budget hotel that offers clean and cosy rooms at a central location. The 24 hour Mustafa shopping centre selling everything is just behind the hotel while the international City Square Mall is just in front. The MRT, bus stop, and taxis are easily accessible. Try the unbelievable varieties of food around the hotel. Air con, flat screen, and attached shower available in room. Everything on a budget.
I had cockroaches in my room, killed at least 2. Plenty of tiny bugs crawling out of the floor drainages in the washroom. bad smell also from the floor drainage. no bed sheets for the blankets; who know how many others used the blanket directly. checked out right the way after the first night. Not worth for the money at all.

Singapore is an expensive place place to visit but not so expensive that you need to stay here. Travelled with our family and stayed in the smallest family room imaginable. Mouldy. Cockroaches. Stains on the wall. The works. Indifferent staff on the front desk extremely reluctant to assist. Our room was in the middle of the building with no windows or natural light. Bathroom with a combined shower/toilet so that when showering water sprayed over the whole bathroom. Noisy aircon that actually helped us sleep so I guess that was a plus. Still thinking of booking? Don’t do it. Seriously don’t.

Pigeon-cage sized rooms. Weird policies. Unfriendly staff. Lot of Indian and Chinese restaurants nearby. The room and the bathroom were so small that there was hardly any place to move around. If you need hot water for morning coffee, you have to get hot water from a water dispenser on the floor, there's nothing in the room nu

Because of last minute travel plans, we had no other choice but to spend our vacation in this hotel. For many reasons, staying in this hotel was a terrible experience. Throughout the duration of our trip, we booked 2 rooms which both had their faulty conditions. The primary concern of Room A was its cleanliness. Every once in a while, bugs like small cockroaches would appear on the floor, the sink top, and even on the bed. We once left a plastic bag filled with bread to come back with 2 small cockroaches inside. Although Room B had a more pleasing atmosphere, it was equipped with very poor air conditioning instead. Even after I brought up my concern to the hotel staff, she dismissed it and reasoned that nothing was wrong at all. This is just my very honest and personal experience here. Take my review with a grain of salt.…

Stayed one night here. It looked good to us initially when we entered the room. But the problems started in the middle of the night when we used the toilet. There were noted small cockroaches and tiny insects crawling everywhere in the toilet and some parts of the room. We have not seen a hotel room with such unbelievable sight. Glad to leave the room the next day after the short stay. Otherwise, its location and its price are the plus points for this hotel.

The hotel is really good..... Do not think twice to book the hotel. Walking distance to MRT, Mustafa shopping mall, restaurants.. Rooms are small but that is how it is in Singapore. They provide you with all the necessary amenities. You can leave the luggage and go if you arrive before the check in time.. also you can check the weight of your luggages at the hotel. They have kept a scale at the entrance.

I don't know what to say. On one hand, this place could be said to be one of the worst hotels on the island: - the hotel looks old and run down - the aircon in my room leaked throughout the night (despite me informing them) - there were cockroaches coming out to play at night - the counter-staff don't pretend to enjoy your presence - there are all kinds of noises in the room (eg, creaky beds, machines whirling, traffic from outside, etc.) On the other hand, I travelled solo and I'm relatively "un-fussy" about these things. Plus, in Singapore if you want to get a room for yourself (and you don't want to pay an arm and a leg) hotels like this will be something you'll need to get used to. I gotta say I slept well and this place is a near many eateries, MRT station, a mall, etc.

Am currently staying here. The rooms are basic, but well worth the SGD 80 per night I am paying for the one-week stay. Great location cattycorner from the City Square Mall including MRT entrance. Near Mustapha 24-hour shopping. Eateries abound nearby. Why my praise? The aircon in my room failed to turn on. No fan, so it would be hot. Immediate service by the hotel staff. Later that evening, it happened again. The lady on the desk came up and tried. She worked with the remote re-set as well. She said I could sleep in another room (a Saturday night, hotel full too!) and someone would fix it on Sunday. I managed to find a safety pin and reset the remote which then turned on the air con, so problem solved. How many budget hotels have a staff person at 10 pm on a Saturday night? She did her best with a smile. I value that. I recommend the hotel. Quiet, facilities do work and there is service when needed.…

I stayed at a single room in Tai Hoe Hotel for 2 days. The room was clean and comfortable, which is value for money for me. The hotel staffs have been friendly and kind, helping with luggages during rain and on a few other intances on voluntary basis, which I appreciate a lot.
