The hype
Travelers are obsessed with the greenery and exterior design, but often find the rooms smaller than expected for the price.

Rezervirajte ovaj smeštaj ako You want to sleep in a literal vertical garden that feels like a sci-fi eco-utopia, steps from Chinatown's best hawker food.
Zašto Ljudima Sviđa
- The 'Hotel in a Garden' architecture by WOHA is genuinely jaw-dropping
- Infinity pool with iconic birdcage cabanas overlooking the city
- Direct access to Hong Lim Park and Chinatown MRT
Brzi pregled: It's an architectural masterpiece that sometimes prioritizes aesthetics over practicality, with a pool that's more for Instagram than swimming.
Pregledano od @Travelholicday: Finally checked this dream hotel off my list! The architecture is mind-blowing—it literally feels like a vertical jungle in the middle of the city. Snagging a birdcage cabana by the pool was the highlight of my trip.

Reality check

Česta pitanja i skriveni saveti
Sve što zaista trebate da znate pre nego što rezervirate.
Is the pool heated?
No, and it's a common complaint. The water is often described as 'freezing' due to the wind and shade.
Is breakfast worth the price?
Only if you love a massive international buffet. For authentic local flavor, go to Hong Lim Food Centre across the street.
Can I walk to Marina Bay Sands?
It's a bit of a trek (20-25 mins walk), but a cheap Grab ride or quick MRT trip away.
Is there a club lounge?
Yes, the 'COLLECTION Club' on Level 16 offers 360-degree views, breakfast, and evening cocktails for Club room guests.
Are the rooms big?
Not really. Standard rooms start at 28sqm, which is compact for a luxury hotel.
Is it kid-friendly?
Moderately. There's a pool, but the vibe is more 'adult luxury' and rooms are tight for extra beds.
Insajderski saveti
- ✨
The 'Garden Walk' on Level 5 is a hidden gem for a quiet evening stroll without leaving the hotel.
- ✨
You can access the Chinatown Point mall via a sheltered walkway if it rains.
- ✨
Ask for a 'Park View' room to see the greenery; 'City View' often just looks at other buildings.
5 stvari koje trebate znati prije nego što krenete
💡The light switches are touch-sensitive pads that are incredibly confusing to operate in the dark.
💡The 'eco-friendly' design means open-air corridors which can get humid and muggy before you enter your AC room.
💡Housekeeping sometimes misses the dust on the high wooden slats and decorative features.
💡The glass bathroom walls have blinds, but there are still gaps—privacy is not 100%.
💡You can hear the MRT rumble faintly from some lower floor rooms.
