Singapore Hotel Tips by redhotwax

When I moved to Singapore, I stayed in this hotel for about 2 weeks before managing to find a place to live. I was 12 at the time, and obviously woo-ed by the grandeur of this hotel, but looking back on it and visiting the hotel now, at 21, I still love the place.

The atrium in the hotel lobby immediatly sets the tone, rising up to the 34th floor.

By far one of my favorite hotels in the world.

Unique Qualities: The view on the Singapore harbour on one side of the hotel, and the view over the city on the other side are amazing, especially from the top floor restaurant. Take a ride on the elevator based outside the building for a really nice view!

They've got a really nice poolside restaurant, in the open air.

The staff at the Pan Pacific are really friendly, and cater to your every need. When I lived in Singapore, I used to go there every once in a while, and they recognized me and my family from our 2 week stay, very nice touch!

The place is really very much what you'd expect from a five star hotel. Check-in was swift, and the room was tidy. Beds were really comfy and air conditioning was sufficient.

Bathroom was somewhat of a letdown, as the bathtub had an attached shower, no separate shower booth.

We stayed on the 24th floor, and the view was quite nice. Obviously, if you've got the cash to splash, try to get a harbourview room up top.

Unique Qualities: The best place in this hotel must be the Equinox centre right at the very top, at the 90th floor. The place boasts a nightclub, a number of bars and a restaurant. Great panoramic views over the city and harbour. Really quite an impressive sight.

The breakfast was luxurious! A large range of both Pan-Asian as well as Western dishes. I especially enjoyed the fresh fruit on offer.

The City Hall MRT station is right downstairs, so it's super easy to access and to see the city.
