Review of Nostalgia Hotel
2.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 22 Mar 2024
The location is great with easy transport links into the centre. The hotel roof top pool was ok but not the cleanest. The hotel lobby and lift has an artificial perfumed smell pumped throughout which I found unbearable and had to avoid this area. We chose not to have our room serviced for fear this smell would increase in our room as it did in the mornings. The room was tiny and not suitable for two adults. We never unpacked as there wasn’t enough space. The air conditioning until blew out into your face at night so I slept the other way round to manage this. Not a relaxing place to be unfortunately.
Date of stay: March 2024
Room Tip: Shop around if you want comfort.

Hotel Nostalgia is a really comfortable hotel in a quiet residential neighborhood. Very good area to walk around in. It is a really good base as there is an MRT station (Havelock) just 5 mins away as well as bus stops nearby. The Tiong Bahru Market (Hawker style) is fantastic - didnt stay long enough to try all the good food.
The staff was friendly and happy to help. The room we got is compact bit everything we needed was there. Just a minor suggestion - having an ice maker (even a centrally located one) would be really appreciated. Otherwise all good . Did I mention that there are so many good places to eat in the area?!?

Loved our time here. Had everything you need for a comfortable stay. Friendly helpful staff. Easy location to 2 train stations and bus stops. Beautiful green avenues and surrounding heritage buildings. Right across the road from a great hawker market. Plenty of surrounding restaurants and cafes. Cute rooftop bar across the road. Gorgeous intimate hotel roof top pool with views of trees and city buildings. Would happily stay here again and recommend to people.

Thanks

Situated just over the road from the spectacular Tiong Baru Food Centre, this is a friendly, clean hotel with the all-important aircon necessary in Singapore in August. They have a delightful little rooftop 'infinity' pool which is perfect for cooling off, and I don't think we ever saw anyone else using it. The interior room we booked was comfy, compact and well-appointed with vintage furniture, presumably inspired by the "Nostalgia" in the name.

As a base, it's perfect: Not only can you walk a couple of minutes to the local food court for a fabulous breakfast (and a cup of hot, sweet Kopi, the local wake-up juice), but it's close to a main bus route, and about 7 minutes walk from the local subway station. Public transit in Singapore is fast, cheap, and easy so if you're near to any bus stops, you can explore the whole region easily.

The staff at Nostalgia were warm and helpful, and everything was spotlessly clean. If we come back, and we certainly plan to do so, then Nostalgia will definitely be on the shortlist for places to stay.

Staff was helpful and kind, and the room was luxurious. The bed is comfortable, the toilet is clean, and the room is well-maintained. The desk is a little small, but that doesn't bother me. Excellent location with a handy grocery and restaurant just a short stroll away.

Hotel Nostalgia is nicely locate near the glorious food area of Tiong Bahru Market. There are a tones of different food and price range to suit everyone and every palate.

There are also a couple of MRT station la nearby - Tiong Bahru MRT (Green) Line, about 15 mins walk, and the new Havelock MRT (Brown) Line, about 6-8 mins walk.

The room is cozy with a Mediterranean decor. There is even a pool upstairs. It’s a bit small to do serious laps but enough for a dip to cool off during the hot days.
