10/10 Excellent
"Hôtel carte postale et iconique à Singapour: nous n’avons pas été déçus. Tout y est parfait. L’arrivée dans le lobby est un peu chaotique: le hall est bruyant et bondé, mais une fois l’enregistrement terminé (personnel d’accueil ultra attentif et sympathique) on monte dans les étages où règne un calme absolu. Notre chambre (Premier City View) était spacieuse, remplie de toutes les commodités attendues d’un hôtel de ce standing et surtout une vue sur le skyline de Singapour à couper le souffle. La chambre et ses équipements sont impeccables, tellement qu’on a l’impression que l’hôtel vient d’ouvrir ses portes. Après, il y a la piscine sur le toit, raison principale de visite pour un paquet de gens et là encore, c’est à la hauteur des attentes. Nous y sommes allés à plusieurs reprises durant le séjour, il y a toujours de la place (beaucoup de place) et la vue comme l’ambiance sont hors normes. Enfin, c’est tout à côté des Gardens by the Bay et pas loin non plus du quartier colonial et de Chinatown (à distance de marche). En gros, cet hôtel est à la hauteur de sa réputation et à mon sens, est un incontournable si vous voulez vivre la totale dans votre séjour à Singapour!"
