ibis Styles Singapore On Macpherson 3 stars

This hotel is in a residential area a $30 taxi ride one way from the airport or 1 change, 8 stops and a $10 taxi ride if you decide to take the subway Hotel is bright and colourful. I have nothing else good to say about it! Rooms are same standard as travel lodge. Local restaurants are a good 10 minute walk away. I chose this hotel because it was cheaper than anything else credible to find? My suggestion is ‘somehow’ find the extra money!! Don’t waste your money here!

We stayed for one night at the Ibis on Macpherson to be a bit closer to the airport for an early morning flight, having stayed the previous four nights at Robertson Quay. On arrival, we found a smell of sewerage in the foyer, which was not a pleasant way to begin our short stay. The check-in guy was not overly friendly or enthusiastic, which I thought might have reflected his job satisfaction. We had a room overlooking the pool, and opposite the dining area. The room itself was large enough and fairly clean, no complaints there. Even though the hotel advertised that it had an airport shuttle, when I enquired about it I was informed something like “ we’re not doing the shuttle anymore”. Thanks for nothing. We had one meal (dinner) at the hotel, probably the worst meal we had in Singapore. Even though we were the only ones in the dining room, we had to wait a ridiculous amount of time to be served. We ordered a bottle of wine, only for the waiter to advised they did not have any refrigerated. However, the on-tap beer was cold and quite refreshing. We did not use the pool as it was raining during our stay. Overall, our stay served its purpose, but if staying again in Singapore I’d look elsewhere.

Reasonably clean and reasonably priced. It’s ok. Breakfast is ok but I wish they’d cook the sausages properly instead of boil don’t them. They also should clean your room every day rather than when they feel like it. The Wi-Fi is also a black art hidden behind a tiny link at the bottom of the page. Why wouldn’t they tell you that or fix it?!?! Nevertheless, the staff are quite nice.

Room was clean. Be wary for some rooms, there are no windows at all but I dont mind. Good supply of toiletries, if anything is missing call room service! Breakfast was okay, couldn’t ask for any better. Not the best location for tourism but if you have somewhere to be nearby the hotel it is simply excellent.

It is located above a closed shopping mall. Comfortable, fairly clean hotel. They have a self service laundry which is convenient. However rooms are cleaned 3 days once. One of the drawer was full of coffee sachets and rubbish which was not cleaned. Not all staffs are friendly here. Walkable distance to MRT station. Nice breakfast.
