York Hotel, Singapore

The Great Singapore Sale is coming back !!! it is just this weekend. But then.....I just went to Singapore last weekend and the sale has started for some shops.

Anyway, as a tribute to the upcoming Great Singapore Sale, I shall post on some hotels that may interest you , depending on your budget and needs. The first hotel is York Hotel, Singapore. Well, this may be slightly outdated, since we stayed here mid last year.

OK, first thing is the location. It is superb location, just off the Orchard Road, provided you are OK to walk up the slight uphill road to get back to the hotel. If you know where Paragon is, the hotel is right behind, about 6 minutes walk. Yes, pass thru the Mount Elizabeth hotel. So location is fantastic. I love the fact that I don't have to get onto a cab or a train to go shopping !!!

So, OK, now, they have 02 blocks of rooms. The old and new ones. The one we stayed at the hotel was the old one, which only houses the suites. 4 units of Suites on one floor, situated in the main block. Why we took the suite was because of the space...it is REALLY HUGE !!!

As you come in ....you would see this.

The view of the room from the bathroom door. You can see the door of the left, which is actually the connecting door to the next room. That room comes with a King Size Bed.

I like the seating area...at least , a place to hang around after a day of shopping :) 

Another view of the room. Oh yeah, if you ever wonder why we always take Twin Sharing beds, it is because, some hotels, the Twin Sharing beds are Super Single or Queen in size. So for a family of 2 adults and 2 children, you don't have to get an extra bed . But in this case, the Single beds were single beds, so what we did was to combine the bed and make it into a slightly bigger King size bed.....errr...you get me ?

Huge space for the children to play around.

The walk in wardrobe.

Remember the seating area just now ? the sofa is actually a Sofa Bed !!! So it is definitely value for money.... so why not right to stay here ?

Well anyway, this is one of the hotels you may choose for Singapore. When we stayed there, it was like SGD350++, which was really affordable especially with the location. I heard, they have done a recent refurbishment, so rooms maybe new ?

So my conclusion for this hotel would be :

1. The location is perfect for the shopaholics
2. This room we stayed was exceptionally huge
3. Also has many meeting rooms to accommodate the corporate conventions
4. Some of the areas in the hotel has been renovated.
5. Have 3 pools i.e. Children, Adult and also a small jacuzzi which is just cute 

Well, I really like this hotel, for its location and for the size of the room and the rate as well. But then again, you may have to go and try it yourself, as you may like it, or you may just don't :)
