Dining and wellness on the grounds

The all day restaurant takes its theme from the trishaw, a form of transport that once carried people through the city after the war, and its lobby location makes it easy to reach. A Japanese omakase counter is led by its owner chef, who blends modern Edomae sushi style with a balance drawn from Singapore. An outdoor pool on the ground floor and a well equipped gym help guests stay active while on the move. Conference and seminar rooms are fitted for both small and large groups, from formal meetings to lively gatherings.

Service approach

Guests are invited to experience the traditional service the hotel calls its own, built on teamwork and a wish to meet the expectations of every visitor. Quality is treated as a continuing commitment, with service processes reviewed so that customer and regulatory requirements are met. The management places weight on consistent delivery, which it sees as the basis for customer satisfaction. The rooms are known for their generous size within the city, and features in each room aim to keep guests comfortable and productive.

Setting in central Singapore

The hotel sits in one of the city's most sought after districts, a short walk from a major shopping street. Public transport is close at hand, with taxis and buses easily available from the main entrance, and the rapid transit station lies within a short walk. Restaurants, shopping and entertainment are all within reach, so guests can cover business and leisure plans from one central base. For guests who enjoy city life, the setting offers a lively base close to the heart of the district.

Our full take

Hotel Royal Singapore is a midscale smoke-free hotel with 362 newly refurbished guest rooms and suites.
