Every single room has a private balcony with vertigo-inducing views
Direct underground access to City Hall MRT and Raffles City Mall
The Level 70 Skai Bar offers the best sunset vantage point in the city
Brzi pregled: It’s a 1,252-room mega-hotel that feels like a luxury train station in the lobby, but the views from the rooms are worth the chaos.
Pregledano od @eatdrinkandbekerry: I checked into the 22nd floor and was blown away by the balcony view. Seeing the Marina Bay Sands light show right from my room was unforgettable. The deep soaking tub and Nespresso machine made this the perfect city escape. Highly recommend requesting a harbour view!
Gost koji je boravio ovdje je rekao
The hype
Travelers are obsessed with the Marina Bay views and location but often find the service impersonal and the lobby overwhelming.
Reality check
You are paying for the view and the MRT access, not for personalized butler service or boutique charm.
You are a first-time visitor who wants to be in the dead center of the action
You live for a high-floor balcony selfie with Marina Bay Sands in the background
You need a serious gym and spa (shared with the Fairmont next door)
Čistoća i održavanje
8.8
Housekeeping: Generally efficient and daily. Some reports of missed dust in corners due to high turnover.
Bathroom hygiene: Spotless. Grout is usually clean, though some older bathrooms have shower-over-tub setups.
Maintenance: Renovated rooms (Premier) are sharp. Older unrenovated units may show scuffs.
Linens & towels: Crisp, white, and high quality. No major complaints here.
Odors & scents: Lobby smells like their signature 'Swiss' scent (fresh/alpine). Rooms are neutral.

Pre nego što rezervirate
Korisno znati
Download the Accor app for a smoother check-in, though you might still need the kiosk.
The pool and gym are shared with the Fairmont, so they are top-tier but busy.
You can access the Raffles City Mall basement for endless cheap food options without going outside.
Šta pakovati
Universal travel adapter (though rooms have USB ports, plugs are standard SG/UK type G)
Gym gear – the Willow Stream facilities are actually worth using
Genie za sobe
Najbolji izbor
Premier Harbour View (High Floor): The money shot. Unobstructed views of MBS and the bay.
Vitality Room: Larger (50sqm) with circadian lighting and a yoga station if you need wellness vibes.
Sobe koje treba izbegavati
Low floors (under level 20) – you lose the view which is the main reason to stay here.
City View rooms if you have your heart set on the water; they face buildings and can feel less 'wow'.
Genie za zahteve za sobe – kopiraj i lepak
“I would appreciate a room on the highest possible floor (above level 40) facing Marina Bay. If a Harbour View isn't available, a high-floor City View away from the elevator bank would be preferred.”
Česta pitanja i skriveni saveti
Sve što zaista trebate da znate pre nego što rezervirate.
Do the balconies have chairs?
Mostly no. Standard rooms have empty balconies. You'll have to drag a chair from inside if you want to sit out.
Is the pool heated?
No, but in Singapore's 30°C (86°F) heat, you won't want it to be. There are two outdoor free-form pools.
How bad is the check-in line?
It can be brutal (30+ mins) at peak times (3-5pm). Try to arrive early or use the mobile check-in if possible.
Is breakfast included?
Usually not in the base rate. It costs around SGD 45++ per person and is often described as chaotic. Consider skipping it for local toast nearby.
Can I walk to Marina Bay Sands?
Yes, it's a scenic 15-20 minute walk across the Helix Bridge, or a quick MRT ride.
Is there a resort fee?
No resort fee, but expect the standard 10% service charge and 9% GST on top of all rates.
Insajderski saveti
✨
Skip the hotel breakfast and head to 'YY Kafei Dian' on Purvis Street (5 min walk) for authentic kaya toast and kopi.
✨
Use the Fairmont Singapore entrance if the Swissotel lobby is a zoo; they connect internally.
✨
The 'Aquaponics Farm' on Level 5 supplies herbs and fish to the restaurants – ask the concierge if you can peek at it.
5 stvari koje trebate znati prije nego što krenete
💡The 'Kopi Tiam' restaurant on Level 2 charges 3-4x street prices for local food; it's a tourist trap.
💡You might have to scan your face at a kiosk to get your room key, which feels very dystopian sci-fi.
💡The balconies have low glass railings that can feel genuinely terrifying if you have vertigo.
💡Room service is robot-assisted in some cases, which is cool but impersonal.
💡The 'City View' rooms actually offer a stunning view of the Padang and St. Andrew's Cathedral, which some prefer over the bay.
