$450-650 / noć
Rezerviraj ovo ako You want the absolute best view of Marina Bay Sands without actually staying inside the chaotic tourist trap that is Marina Bay Sands.
Zašto Ljudima Se Sviđa
- The post-2023 'Tropical Modernism' renovation finally ditched the 80s beige for lush, vibrant style
- HAUS 65 is arguably the chicest club lounge in the city (free-flow Ruinart champagne helps)
- The pool deck offers the single best swim-up view of the Singapore skyline
Brzi pregled: A stunning rebirth of a classic that now feels like a botanical garden in the sky, though you'll pay a heavy premium for that bay view.
Pregledano od @mlverbanick: I stayed at the Mandarin Oriental Singapore and the panoramic view of Marina Bay Sands right from my room was unforgettable. The freestanding tub felt like my own private spa. Worth every single penny for this level of luxury!
Što su rekli gosti koji su boravili ovdje
Reality check
Some guests find the atrium design (open corridors) can carry noise from the lobby or restaurants up to the rooms.
- You are a design nerd who appreciates 'Tropical Modernism' (think rattan, orchids, and batik)
- You need a power-breakfast spot that impresses clients (Embu is excellent)
- You want to walk to the F1 track or Esplanade theaters

“I would love a renovated Marina Bay View room on a high floor (20+), ideally away from the elevator bank to minimize atrium noise. If available, a room with a direct view of the MBS light show would be fantastic.”
FAQ & Skriveni savjeti
Sve što zaista trebate znati prije nego što rezervirate.
Is the renovation actually finished?
Yes, fully reopened in September 2023. The 'tired' reviews from 2022 are no longer relevant.
Is the Club Lounge worth the extra cost?
Absolutely. HAUS 65 offers free-flow champagne, afternoon tea, and a chauffeur service within 2km. It pays for itself if you drink.
Can I walk to Marina Bay Sands?
Yes, via the Helix Bridge. It's a scenic 10-15 minute walk.
Is breakfast included?
Depends on your rate. The buffet at Embu is excellent but costs ~$60++ SGD if paid separately.
Does the hotel have a shuttle?
No general shuttle, but HAUS 65 guests get a complimentary chauffeur car for short distances (weekdays only).
Is it kid-friendly?
Yes, but with caveats. There's a kids' pool and special buffet corner at Embu, but the vibe is definitely more 'adult luxury' than 'family resort'.

Ask for the 'Boneless Crucian Carp Congee' at Cherry Garden — it's a tableside masterpiece not everyone knows to order.
- ✨
The 'Teh Tarik' at Embu's breakfast buffet is surprisingly authentic; don't skip it.
- ✨
Use the Marina Square mall connection to get to the Esplanade MRT station without walking in the heat.
5 stvari koje trebate znati prije nego što dođete
💡The atrium architecture is stunning but acts as a giant echo chamber; ask for a room far from the central void.
💡The 'City View' actually includes a lot of highway and mall rooftop — manage your expectations.
💡You can watch the Marina Bay Sands light show (Spectra) from your room if you book a Bay View room — tune your radio to the simulcast.
💡The gym has a chandelier. Yes, really.
💡There is a hidden 'kids' buffet' section in Embu that is lower to the ground so little ones can serve themselves.
