Halal-certified breakfast buffet at Atrium Restaurant
Spacious 30sqm rooms that are larger than modern Singapore shoebox hotels
한눈에 보기: A grand 80s dame that’s showing her age with musty carpets and echoey hallways, but the location and price often make up for the wrinkles.
@ArifNajmuddin1600415님의 리뷰: I checked into the Holiday Inn Singapore Atrium and was blown away by how family-ready it is. The kids' glamping tent in the room was a total surprise hit! Perfect for balancing my meetings with family time.

The hype
Travelers love the new MRT convenience and the breakfast spread, but consistently note the property feels 'tired' and 'dated'.
Reality check
The 'non-smoking' rooms often carry a faint whiff of stale smoke or dampness due to the building's age and central air system.
You need a Halal-certified kitchen for all meals
You prefer classic, spacious rooms over trendy micro-hotels
You are an IHG member chasing status or using points
청결 & 유지관리
7.5
Housekeeping: Generally responsive, but 'missed spots' like dust on high ledges or under beds are common.
Bathroom hygiene: Clean but dated. Grout lines often show age/discoloration. Bathtubs are clean but scratched.
Maintenance: Aging infrastructure. Leaky AC units and peeling wallpaper are occasional complaints.
Linens & towels: Standard commercial white. Clean and crisp, though towels can feel a bit thin from overuse.
Odors & scents: The biggest issue. Musty, damp carpet smell in corridors and some rooms is the #1 complaint.

자주 묻는 질문 및 숨은 팁
예약하기 전에 실제로 알고 싶은 모든 것.
Is the breakfast Halal?
Yes, the Atrium Restaurant is Halal-certified, making it a top pick for Muslim travelers.
Is there a pool?
Yes, two outdoor pools on Level 6, including a shallow kids' pool. It's functional but not 'resort' style.
How close is the MRT?
Ideally located. Havelock MRT (Thomson-East Coast Line) Exit 5 is literally steps from the hotel entrance.
Does the hotel feel old?
Yes. Built in 1985 (formerly the Glass Hotel), it has a retro charm but visible wear like scuffed furniture and worn carpets.
Is there a shuttle to Orchard Road?
Shuttle services have been inconsistent post-pandemic; the MRT is now your best bet (direct line to Orchard via Havelock).
Can I open the windows?
No, windows are sealed shut, which contributes to the occasional stuffiness.

Use the 'Digital Concierge' QR code in the room for extra pillows or amenities—it's faster than calling.

Walk to 'Great World City' mall (5 mins) for a massive selection of Japanese food and a high-end supermarket.

The Level 6 laundry room also has an ice machine—one of the few spots to get ice without calling room service.
가기 전에 알아야 할 5가지
💡The 'Liminal Space' vibe: The massive, hollow atrium can feel eerily empty and quiet at night, giving off a sci-fi movie feel.
💡The 'Ghost' of the Glass Hotel: Locals still remember it by its old name; some taxi drivers might know it as 'Concorde' or 'Glass Hotel'.
💡The humidity trap: Because of the atrium design, humid air gets trapped in the corridors, leading to that persistent 'damp carpet' smell.
💡The hidden exit: You can cut through the back of the hotel to get to the Singapore River promenade faster than the main entrance.
💡The smoking confusion: Despite being non-smoking, the central air sometimes circulates smoke smells between floors.
