I like that the rooms are spacious for my needs. I do not like that the shower holder is always with black mold and cannot be cleaned. Also the receptacles beside the bed are really loose connection in need of replacement. I have been here before and still every single room that I stayed had the receptacle loose for two prong plugs. The rooms are clean, the swimming pool beautiful, the exercise room very clean, the sauna is perfect but this time the steam room was not working…

Another problem was children throwing tennis balls in pool .very unsupervised

The first room we got put in smelled disgustingly damp - there was also damp & mould on the carpet, around the desk legs, next to the bed. Probably the worst hotel carpet I have seen. Instead of just moving us, they put a dehumidifier in the room which made no difference. After complaining some more we got put in another room on a higher floor - no smell but still signs of damp everywhere. I would honestly be embarrassed putting guests in these rooms. Staff don't seem to really care or seem bothered at all, a bit like they've given up. The hotel cleaners though I think did a fantastic job with what they were given, there isn't much they can do with a disgusting carpet and the rest of the room was clean. Attention to detail doesn't exist, the lamp shades had paint splatters all over them (like just replace them???)... it is not what you'd expect from a 'luxury' hotel which is what they advertise themselves as. Would never stay here again... watch out for the mouldy rooms.

We enjoyed our stay very much and liked the executive room and its comforts. Unfortunately, the loud music kept us awake until early hours of the morning. We stayed 5 nights and it was a real challenge to get any sleep. The team were very friendly and helpful. We had an issue with the king bed and when we brought it to the attention of the concierge, it was put right away. The housekeeping team was outstanding with their service.please share this positive feed back with them. I would like to suggest that the sound proofing of the rooms facing the entertainment precinct will be an advantage as the music will never go away. My wife and I would love to stay at the Paradox during our next visit to Singapore. However, we may have to choose a room away from facing the entertainment precinct.

I was allocated Rm 209 which was the furthest room from the lift and you had to traverse two flights of stairs to get there. All other options were blocked off due to building works. This room has horrendous sound proofing I could hear the people in the adjoining room talking/snoring etc. the party noise from Clarke quay was deafening, I was awoken at 10.15pm until after midnight. Then I could hear random people talking until dawn. When I checked out not one of the staff asked if I enjoyed my stay as they knew I was in this terrible room

We stayed at the Paradox for 8 nights and had a positive experience. The room was very large, the pool was great, and the location is fantastic. The downsides were that the room was dated. We had a window that failed to close properly, bringing in street noise, that was not fixed during our entire stay. The staff is ok, but was not over friendly. Overall positive and recommended.

We stayed 3 nights and found the staff were so nice and helpful. The buffet breakfast was fantastic and there is an MRT station just around the corner from the hotel. The room we stayed in was spacious however the bed was like a rock and the pillows so uncomfortable. Not a great sleep over the 3 nights. Which was disappointing considering this was our last stay before heading back to Australia.

Bathroom is large. Service and room cleaning are excellent, it’s just an older hotel which is well maintained and a good pool area. We will be sure to use again.

The room was clean and comfortable, and overall the stay was decent. However, the attitude and approach of the front desk and luggage staff could be improved — they didn’t come across as very welcoming or helpful, especially during check-in, check-out, and when requesting assistance. Nothing major, but it did leave a bit of a negative impression. Otherwise, an okay stay — might explore other options next time.

Location is great. Staff is very helpful. But lately calls to front desk take much longer to get answered. So that was a bit disappointing. I had to call 5 times and none of the calls were answered. Eventually I went downstairs to speak with the staff. Also there was no bottled water in the room. I appreciate the eco-friendly choice to avoid plastic bottles, but it would be helpful to offer water pitchers to guests that can be kept in the fridge to provide access to cold water.

The hotel is in a great location, central to many restaurants in Clarke Quay and a short walk to Chinatown. The MRT train is underneath the Clarke Quay Central shopping centre across the road which makes it super convenient to get around Singapore. It's worth paying the extra for breakfast everyday, there is a lot of variety and good quality food to eat. My only criticisms are: 1. Don't advertise and charge a higher rate for a room with a balcony knowing full well Singapore Government law states the door must be kept locked which is what I was advised when I checked out; and 2. The price for the dinner buffet in the hotel is way too expensive, especially if you are not a big eater, My suggestion is go across the road for a great steak at Astons Specialties at Clarke Quay Central. Tremendous value for money and great service and delicious food. Apart from that it's a nice place to stay and will likely book again.

Third year in a row staying at the Paradox Merchant Court. Premium hotel with direct access to Clarke Quay MRT, you can’t beat the convince. First time having breakfast included which was a bit of a disappointment. If you don’t go early, you won’t get a table and there will be line ups to get close to the food. Missed 2 of my four breakfasts. Once because I got up after 8am and decided not to battle the crowd. Took a 6 minute walk over to Hong Lim hawker Center to get my Kaya toast, eggs and coffee which was only $4.30. Better than battling the breakfast crowd. House keeping staff were amazing! Always came back to a clean and fresh room. Front desk well staffed and always greeted you as you walked by. Paradox is definitely my go to hotel when staying in Singapore!
