to get started.

Staff was so helpful with early check in before noon. Gracious extra services that are the mark of a finer hotel- lovely aperitif at check-in, certificate for free 10 minute massage, the feeling that they are happy to help in what ever way. Perfect location in the heart of the city just across the street from Maxwell food hall, the shrine and easy walk to all the marina views and sights.

Great location in Chinatown and very close to Hawker centers. Maxwell Hawker Center is just across the street. The hotel property is a very cool historical building. We were warmly welcomed after a late night flight and check-in was pleasant and easy. The staff here are very friendly and helpful. I would absolutely stay here again.

Fantastic location, within walking distance to Chinatown. The staff were always friendly and always asked if we needed any help. Whilst our basement room didn’t have any windows there was a light well which provided natural light during the day. Room was small but felt spacious enough and was very comfortable. No restaurant/bar due to renovations. Great value for money given Chinese New Year and it’s proximity to all the action.

Excellent location- convenient for your stay in Singapore!

This boutique hotel is charming. This was a second stay. The staff are very helpful and knowledgeable about local facilities. The decor and the furniture give it a rich and luxurious feel. The beds and linens are confortable. The rooms have all the bits and bobs you need to cover anything you might have forgotten.

Location was great, room was clean and comfortable, though small, and a long walk from reception. Its a quirky place though and I like it a lot. The staff were excellent and presented us with welcome drinks and not only looked after our luggage all day but gave us access to a shower area before we flew out late at night.

The location was perfect for Chinatown. A short walk to Clarke Qauy. The night life was amazing and close to so many different foods.

Adam

My partner and I stayed at The Scarlet over Grand Prix race weekend 2019. The location of the hotel is very convenient, with a 20-30min walk down to the Bay Area. We also enjoyed exploring the area directly surrounding the hotel including China Town and Club Street. Rooms are stylish and clean, and staff were attentive. Midday check out was also a bonus!

Room was too small. We couldn’t leave open both cases and there wasn’t room to unpack them either. The room/hotel could do with a refurb. Overall it’s very clean and tidy but dated. Breakfast was poor. Bread/croissants were generally a bit stale and there wasn’t much fruit/cereal to choose from. Not worth $30 each a day.
Excellent location, very friendly staff and we had complimentary drinks in the room fridge refreshed daily.

The first room I was shown was very noisy with an air con compressor for the building just outside (in addition to the one for the room). The alternatives had no windows. Access was up stairs, down long corridors. Over 110GBP per night for a 5 night stay and no window! So I was forced to upgrade and pay substantially more for a room I was happy to stay in for 5 nights. The housekeeping seemed not as prompt as I am used to, eg came back at 17.00 pm and not done meaning I had to go chase replacement water / supplies.
The member of staff Bincey who kindly me showed me around alternative rooms. Also the location was excellent for a solo older lady traveller.
