Hotel Review: The Regent Singapore

The Regent Singapore is a Four Seasons hotel that is located near to Tanglin, slightly off-Orchard Road. Boasting 440 classically appointed rooms and suites, The Regent Singapore may look slightly dated on the exterior  but after staying there last month, I can safely say that the hotel is slowly making its way to one of my top few favourite hotels in Singapore. Most importantly, The Regent Singapore is one of the rare few hotels in Singapore that allows you to bring a pet along (to stay) with you.

Hotel Review: One Farrer Hotel & Spa (Skyline Studio)

The One Farrer Hotel & Spa comprises of three hotels under one large hospitality umbrella. The Skyline Studio enjoys plenty of daylight which gives the already spacious room a greater sense of space. The blackout blinds and sheer curtains for privacy can be drawn automatically from the controls provided in-room. If you are feeling peckish, access the dining catalog from the Samsung LED Smart TV in your room. Craving for some shopping instead? This can also be done from your TV or if you prefer, head on down to the lobby to see what is actually on offer. Check out my stay at the Skyline Studio in the Skyline Hotel which comes with five complimentary meals per day. Indulge in a fully equipped gym or the Olympic-size swimming pool at this stunning property!
