Top Sim Lim Square Hotel Reviews

Hotel Waterloo Singapore - Handwritten Collection

8/10 Good

"Great location, walking distance form many locations and close to MRT/Bus"

Hotel Boss

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel Boss is in a great location. Lavender MRT is a short walk and the bus is right outside. There is a fabulous cafe serving amazing coffee just up the road, and superettes all around for bottled water and snacks. It is a busy hotel with lots of people coming and going all the time. It has a great pool to cool off in, a lovely area of lounge chairs to relax by the pool, a laundry, compact but nice rooms, breakfast provided a wide selection, a bar and restaurant at the entry with great staff, and the team are friendly. Thank you Hotel Boss. We stayed for a week and were very impressed!"

Oakwood Bencoolen Singapore

8/10 Good

"a little disappointed by our stay. The hotel itself is wonderful with an excellent pool, however, there is no "hot tub". There is a jacuzzi style area, but the water is not heated above that of the main pool, it is definitely not hot, although this was fine for us. Disappointing things - we arrived around 11pm at night having just realised we'd lost a bag at the airport. It contained things of great emotional value and i was very upset, yet the staff really couldn't have cared any less. I wanted a shower, at this time of night it was cold, there was no hot water. My elderly Mum was very ill with a bug (so much so, we had to wheelchair her onto the aircraft). We only had 3 tea bags in the room so i asked for more. They were never sent. I was also struggling to get my Mum to eat anything, but this point she hadn't eaten for around 9 days. The hotel breakfast was apparently open until 10.30 and served porridge which she felt she could manage. At 10.10 we were told we were too late for breakfast. My poor Mum was forced to stagger to a nearby shopping precinct where we managed to find a piece of melon. The 2nd bed in the suite is a pull out sofa and rather uncomfortable. positives - the hotel is very nicely decorated, rooms well laid out and equipped, very nice bathrooms and the main bed looked very comfy. The best part was that the suite could be separated into 2 with different temperatures in each!"

Grand Park City Hall

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was extremely well-maintained, and the staff from the doormen to the front desk personnel were very customer-oriented. They went the extra mile. I had a wonderful junior suite, spacious and comfortable. The air conditioning could be fine-tuned to lower or higher temperatures, and it worked very well. A big plus was the water filtration device in my room making faucet water potable, with no need for bottled water. I also liked the extra large safe which could contain my laptop easily. The only area for improvement is that the bathroom didn't have towel racks other than the one on the shower door. It could have used one or two. Nonetheless, I would recommend this place for all of the above, plus its great location near the civic center."

Pan Pacific Singapore

10/10 Excellent

"**An Amazing Stay – Exceptional Service and a Wonderful Experience!** I had a fantastic stay at the Pan Pacific Singapore and honestly couldn't have asked for a better experience. From the moment I arrived, everything was excellent. The hotel is beautiful, the atmosphere is welcoming, and the staff consistently make you feel valued and well taken care of. One thing that really stood out was the housekeeping service. Coming back to the room every day to find it beautifully cleaned, refreshed and perfectly made up was such a pleasure. The attention to detail and consistency made a real difference throughout my stay. The room was comfortable, the facilities were excellent, and the overall experience exceeded my expectations. It's the little things, combined with the high standard of service, that make a hotel truly memorable. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and would highly recommend Pan Pacific Singapore to anyone visiting Singapore. Definitely a hotel I would be happy to return to! **Thank you to the entire team for making my stay so memorable!**"
