The hotel seems to have seen better days - we found out from Singapore-based friends that the hotel will be torn down soon and rebuilt. The room furntiure and fittings are tacky and the carpet is musty. We were given a room that looks into the corridors -even the concierge remarked, at the time of our checking out, that the reception staff had given us a poor deal. The breakfast was rather basic and the ice kachang we had was terrible and practically inedible. The capuchino was so-so. One good feature was the shuttle service to Orchard Road which was frequent, punctual and efficient .
As I write this, this once grand and excellent hotel is closing down for demolition. It is a chanin hotel and no doubt its sister hotels in Singapore are equally well serviced.
nothing special about the hotel, as they are about to be closed down by the end of March 2011 for a big renovation. That's why when we arrived there are so many groups like school-groups or athletes-group or big tourist-groups that make the lobby and the restaurant where we have our breakfast becoming so noisy and UN-comfortable. We suspect that since the hotel is about to be demolished, they invited so many groups to stay. We got the deluxe room and my other friend got a standard room with the same price, but the facilities and conditions of room are so different. I'm so lucky i get the better one on the deluxe room.
Stayed a week here and was pleased with the comfort and service.
The location is a very big inconvenience however there is a bus that goes to orchard road and back regularly.
MRT is a long walk away and No shops nearby.
Room was clean and balcony was a great bonus.
No master switch for the lights was a little irritating too.
A satisfying hotel if you don't mind taking transport.
1. least known , least preferred by taxis, peril to get taxi when you are night-out ,this hotel soon to be replaced by flats, i heard, so everything old.
unfriendly to guest ,misnomer to call copthorne orchard.metro is miles away. cheated by taxi
a bit far from city hall, about 10 sing dollars by cab. No real close MRT stop.
There is a hotel bus not very often to Orchard Road.
Staff at counter not friend!
30 sing dollar for 3 days of wifi hire.
room was spacious,with bathub and everything that i needs in it,pity was air con was not functioning well at night which makes me hard to sleep
breakfast buffet was good =)
The hotel was very tired, i gather it is closing soon
The room was clean but the bathroom had mold growing & the plug in the bath had jammed so the water could not escape. The room & the whole wing of the hotel I stayed in smelt very damp & moldy. I have been told though the hotel is being pulled down soon so maybe no maintenance is being done
The beds were extremely hard and we couldn't sleep very well, Staff didn't seem to understand what I was asking when I asked did they have a room with a softer bed. We met another couple who also had the same problem that they couldn't sleep because of the hard bed. I think Hotels should have a mixture of beds and when you book there so be a question as to what type of bed you would like. I wouldn't stay there again only because of the bed.
Too bad, the buidling will be removed to build new condo
The hotel is getting old. Some rooms are good, some rooms are not. It locates near botanical garden which is convenience for people who like to visit botanical garden. It is also close to the city, so it is not expensive to take a taxi to go to the city. The hotel is situated in the quiet residential neighborhood, so it is safe and nice. I have stayed in this hotel for a few times already. They told me they are going to demolish the building to give way to the condos. That is a pity. Otherwise, I will always come back to it.
good hotel, a little out of town but the hotel has a shuttle bus to town at no cost.
food in the restaurant is a bit expensive. will advise to include breakfast with the room rate.
This hotel is VERY CLOSE TO DOWNTOWN ...if that`s what you want....
book here...cause it`s not that expensive...considering what`s around you...and the prices they charge.
I must of been back 4 to 5 time now.
This is not a 3 star hotel, its more like a -1.5. The walls have mold on them, there are stains all over the walls, the toilet flush does not work. The staff is unfriendly and there are people sitting in the lobby to be roommed for hours at a time.
over all a horrible experience.
Broken aircon caused leakage all over, smell like dead rats, the pool water was so full of chemicals that my skin was itching after swimming half hour.
