Strand Hotel Singapore

Don’t expect too much from a budget hotel. It’s just decent 3 star hotel. There’s no pool or gym for this hotel so if you don’t mind that then it probably work well for you. We needed to carry 3 large suitcases up the steps on our own, and no one helped us or opened the door. The reception personnel was just okay (nothing spectacular) but as we check out the bell boy was nice enough to open the door and help us carry our 3 large suitcases. The room is roomy and free of odours, however the amenities is only a toothbrushes and toothpaste. Do bring your own shower gel, shampoo, and conditioner. They do not supply shampoo or conditioners. They do have body wash, but it feels like a low-quality shower gel (if you're not particular, use it). We have sensitive skin, we brought our own shower gels. We didn't have any hand soap in the room until the housekeepers cleaned it (she probably added it while cleaning). The beds were not hard but firm, which was nice, and they provided two small water bottles. The location was rather convenient. It is directly in front of the Bencoolen MRT station (Blue Line). There are also various cafes and eateries in the close by. If you are not picky and wish to stay in a budget and decenr central location, this hotel may be suitable for you.

very nice and clean hotel, friendly staff and provided with free wifi inside the room

no frills hotel located in the town area. The MRT station and bus stops are located right in front of the hotel, so it is easy to move around. Rooms are not super clean nor dirty, its a bit old, but quite well maintained.
