Wyndham Singapore Hotel

Amazing view, special thanks to Shahira for her kindness!

We were visiting Singapore for the first time for family Holidays. We enjoyed our stay at the Wyndham Singapore ! The hotel is perfectly located if you are touring Singapore and want to easily get to common tourist sites by the metro (the metro station is 3-4 minutes walk from the hotel) or even walk (Merlion park is 15 minutes walk for example). The hotel also is located right next to a mall with a Great food court. The hotel also had Great breakfast spread (was included in our booking) with lots of options if you eat meat and sea food (we are vegetarians and from India...they also had some Indian options...they should add more vegetarian options). The hotel was clean and well maintained and staff was very helpful. Overall, we will revisit the hotel when we visit Singapore next time.

On a recent around-the-world solo adventure, I booked several days at The Wyndham in Singapore. The location was quite good and the view from my room was exceptional. The property itself is a little tired and could benefit from an extensive renovation. Elevator logic was poor and every trip on the lift required much patience. Check in took forever - in fact ALL interactions with front desk were unnecessarily long. They would type and peer the screen and type and peer at the screen. It was like stepping back to the late 80s. Just weird how much friction there was when dealing with the desk. I opted for an upgrade and was quoted roughly $100 a night for each of four nights. The staff member then told me “that will be $1100 dollars.” I asked “for four nights?” He responded “yes, $100 for each night.” I questioned his total and he said “there are taxes.” I challenged his math and he went back to typing and peering and typing and peering and said “my bad, that will be $460”. Every interaction with staff was like this. Just weird. Of ALL the hotels I have stayed at during the course of this adventure, this was the least satisfying. I had other unresolved issues that they were unwilling to correct - but I don’t care to spend any more time thinking about this place. Bottom line - I would NOT recommend staying here if you are looking for even BASIC luxury level accommodations. It’s not that kind of place.

The room was immaculate. The staff was phenomenal. Especially the front desk reception and Shankrish, senior duty manager who took a potentially catastrophic situation and turned it into gold for us. I can’t thank you enough. Breakfast was varied western and eastern. The air conditioning was better than any others we came across in Singapore. The pool was delightful. The views alone are worth staying at this hotel, but the staff make this really the best option for a stay in Singapore. If you can, splurge for a room with a view of the bay. You will not regret it.

In general, the room is too small, the lobby is too noisy, fewer staff in the lobby area and to assist customers
