Hotel's Favourite
Fantastic hotel in a great location! Excellent staff & everything was immaculately clean. The pool is amazing & open until 10.00 pm👍 Room was a decent size & very comfortable. Clarke Quay MRT station is right next door via escalator- the Singapore train system is so cheap & easy to use. I’d definitely stay here again if I even come back to Singapore.

The hotel is well located downtown , close to the Clarke Quay. Many restaurant options at walking distance. The subway is just across the street. The hotel is modern and I was on the executive floor. The room was modern, the bed was very comfy with pillows that you can select. A good working desk and reliable wifi. The bathroom was small but functional.Breakfast was on a separate floor with nice views of the city. A choice of eggs and a buffet of cold cuts, salad and yoghurt, not extensive but enough for a good breakfast .Amenities in the room were good, a kettle, Nespresso coffee and TWG tea bags and water.

We stayed here for 5 nights over the F1 Weekend. The hotel is in a great location both for visiting the F1 and sightseeing. Close to all the bars/restaurants in Clarke and Boat Quay. Also walking distance to China Town. The hotel itself is immaculate, great clean rooms and reception/bar area. We only ate in the restaurant for breakfast but the food was great and staff attentive and efficient. There’s also a great pool area with outside bar. The pool did get busy but we used the Sun loungers in the garden area and it’s a hidden gem of a sun trap and really private. We will definitely use this hotel again when we return.

We stopped over at the Paradox on both legs of a holiday to Australia. Both visits were five star and we couldn’t really fault the hotel. It’s modern, clean, nicely situated to experience Singapore and the staff we encountered were excellent. Service here really is first rate. Would thoroughly recommend.
