Hotel Review: Shangri-La Hotel, Singapore (Valley Wing)

The Shangri-La Hotel, Singapore
in

If there was one hotel I had to pick for exclusivity and opulence, it has to be the Shangri-La Hotel, Singapore. There are three major wings in the hotel - Tower, Garden and Valley (in order of extravagance). While I did fall in love with the Garden Wing where I stayed previously in a Deluxe Pool View Room, since it reminded me of a resort away from the city, the Valley Wing is on a different league of its own. According to reputable sources within the hotel, the Valley Wing was also where Barack Obama (and various other heads of state as well as celebrities) stayed during his visit to Singapore.

The first St. Regis Hotel was built by one of the wealthiest man in America and ever since then, the St. Regis brand has been synonymous with luxury and opulence - a private retreat for distinguished travellers and those who appreciate the finer things in life. Having been to the Brasserie Les Saveurs, La Brezza and the famous Yan Ting on multiple occasions, I was excited to spend a weekend in what is allegedly, Singapore's most prestigious address - the St. Regis Singapore.

Hotel Review: Singapore Marriott Tang Plaza Hotel (Pool Terrace Room)

The Singapore Marriott Tang Plaza Hotel has surprised me tremendously with the Pool Terrace Rooms. While the Executive Rooms were quite typical of a five-star business hotel, the Pool Terrace Rooms are on a whole different league of its own (in the best way possible). Apart from enjoying more space and executive lounge privileges, my experience at the Singapore Marriott Tang Plaza reminded me more of a luxurious spa retreat more than a typical weekend staycation. Having the swimming pool at your doorstep and that amazing lunch at Pool Grill also definitely help to create this unique experience in the heart of Singapore's busiest shopping strip.

Here's a bit of an interesting fact when you stay in an Executive Suite at the Sheraton Towers Singapore - you may be given one of the regular Premium Suites or one of the special Heritage Cities Suites. There are only a handful of Heritage Cities Suites and they are deliberated themed after distinctive heritage cities from all around the world with carefully selected furniture and design. During my stay, I was lucky enough to be given the Copenhagen Executive Suite which is inspired by the capital of Denmark.

For this stay, I took advantage of the previous Discover Asia sale (up to 30% off) and saved quite a bit on the Centennial Suite reservation. For those of you who are unfamiliar with the location of the Conrad Centennial Singapore, it is located next to Millenia Walk and if you are coming by MRT, the closest stop would be Promenade on the Circle Line. Check out my review of the Conrad Centennial Singapore's Centennial Suite now!

Back in July 2015, Park Hotel Group has officially announced the opening of Park Hotel Alexandra and since then, The Carvery (which is located within the hotel) has gained quite a bit of attention for serving great quality meats at an affordable price.

To take advantage of one of Golden Circle's targeted offers, I decided to spend two nights at the Hotel Jen Orchardgateway once again but only this time it was in a Deluxe Room instead of the luxurious Premier Panorama room. Barring the club rooms, there are generally three main room types: Superior, Deluxe and Premier Panorama. The Superior rooms are the most basic of all while the Deluxe rooms have a little more space and it also comes with a bathtub.
