Loved the design of the hotel and how the modern design and how it acknowledges the history of the temple and the Chinese immigrants in the 1800's. There was even a small free tour available with the staff explaining the history (request at the front desk, at 4 pm) which was great. So that brings me to the amazing service. And then the location was outstanding - close to so many hawker stalls, restaurants, and there was lots of nightlife on the Friday and Saturday nights including loud DJ music closeby but amazingly quiet inside the room. Some staff were exceptionally friendly (not all, but they were all helpful). Also, the complimentary snacks and soft drinks, Nespresso, and special teas were great. Some minor inconveniences: there have preserved the idea of a raised threshold that a temple has (explained in the tour) but that also means that you can't roll luggage in easily and need to make a big step getting in and out of the Temok Ayer St. entrance. The other entrance is not one that a car can drive right up to - it's enclosed with restaurants. There are also a few steps here and there along the way to the room after the elevator, so if this is an issue, perhaps inquire about getting a room closer to the elevator? It was easy enough to find someone to help me lift my luggage when needed, but wish they could have a separate modern door to go around the threshold. Also, in different countries, the use of a face towel varies, and here I asked and was able to get it.
