Excellent stay, still convenient although no longer directly linked to the mall. You need to cross a slightly busy junction to get to first avenue mall. Near all the yummy food location, easily walkable - all within 5-10 minutes walk. Live band at the bar every Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Will stay again next time

Had a good stay at this hotel over Christmas. Room was spacious, staff service was excellent. Despite the breakfast room being very busy, the staff there always find time to chat with us and found us (party of 4) a nice table. A long walk to Armenian Street and the Esplanade. But with he heat, easier to catch a Grab as the fares are so low. Will recommend this hotel for a family holiday.
