PARKROYAL COLLECTION Pickering, Singapore

Staying at PARKROYAL COLLECTION Pickering for this trip to Singapore far exceeded my expectations! The building, like an urban oasis, is incredibly distinctive with lush greenery all around, offering a sense of tranquility amidst the bustling city. The location is superb, within walking distance to Chinatown and Clarke Quay, and incredibly convenient for subway travel. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained; the rooftop infinity pool had an amazing vibe. All staff members were polite, thoughtful, and promptly responsive. The food was exquisite and delicious. Whether for leisure sightseeing or urban exploration, this is an incredibly worthwhile hotel choice in Singapore. I will definitely prioritize staying here again on my next visit to Singapore. Highly recommended!

This hotel is super stylish, living up to its 'influencer' reputation. The lobby instantly puts you in a good mood. The location is excellent too; you can city walk to all the major attractions from here. The outdoor infinity pool is beautiful, day and night. The only downside is that the room is a bit small, especially for our family of four. We booked a room with a sofa bed, and since the hotel was fully booked, the staff only came to make up the bed two hours after check-in. However, their service was very good and polite. We had an early start the next day so we missed breakfast, but the hotel prepared a packed breakfast and coffee for us. ☕

The room was clean with a good separation of wet and dry areas. Cleanliness: Good Ambiance: Elegant, strong sense of design Service: Good Infinity pool Breakfast was plentiful, delicious, and the environment was good.

The location is fantastic, not too far from Universal Studios and Marina Bay Sands, just a few subway stops away. Clarke Quay and Chinatown MRT stations are within walking distance. We booked a family room, which had a sofa bed, and the breakfast selection was extensive.

PARKROYAL COLLECTION Pickering is an absolute must-stay, iconic hotel in Singapore! The entire building is enveloped in lush greenery, creating a tropical rainforest vibe right in the heart of the city – it's truly atmospheric. Our room was spotless, exquisitely designed with a chic aesthetic, and the bedding was incredibly soft and comfortable. The facilities were top-notch and complete. The staff were warm and attentive, providing meticulous and thoughtful service. The location is super convenient, close to Chinatown, making shopping and dining easily accessible. The hotel's famed infinity pool offers stunning views. Our stay far exceeded expectations. I highly recommend this place for anyone visiting Singapore – you'll be dreaming about it long after you check out!

In one word, it was an amazing experience! If I come back, I know exactly where I'll be staying...

This price is really not worth it. The room is tiny, and the bathroom's vanity is on par with what you'd find in a basic smart hotel costing 100-200 RMB in China. There was even a very noticeable clump of the previous guest's yellow hair right in the middle of the bathroom wall. For 3,000 RMB, there isn't even a smart toilet. It seems all the money went into the exterior. As for the famous swimming pool, there were no lifeguards or any staff present. It was a complete mess, with several young children, barely old enough to count, wildly jumping into the pool. No pool should ever allow diving, but there was no staff there to supervise. Aside from one front desk staff member who was decent when we checked in, the other two were quite indifferent. When we went to get our room cards, we saw them still on their phones. Their tone was very average and somewhat arrogant, completely lacking any smiles or friendly demeanor.

Revisiting Singapore after ten years, I still chose to stay at the same hotel, letting my kids relive their 'embryonic' experience, haha! The location is superb; major landmarks are within walking distance, and there are three subway lines right outside the door. Getting to a concert is a breeze – blue line to yellow line, and I was there in half an hour. The airport is also convenient, blue line to green line, about 45 minutes. It's close to Chinatown, with endless food options. The hotel has been well-maintained over the past decade; the facilities are still quite new. The rooms are as eco-friendly and clean as ever, though after ten years, it does lack a bit of modern tech – no bidet, no smart home system. The main gimmick is the mechanical robotic arm at the self-service breakfast. The room size is average, not particularly large. The window faces the Singapore Attorney-General's Chambers, with its twin towers of a similar architectural style. The infinity pool on the 5th floor was already picture-perfect ten years ago. The service is good, very responsive to requests, and increasingly friendly towards Chinese tourists. However, it still falls short compared to Mandarin Oriental Hong Kong or Aranya in China. It's more business-oriented, with no special arrangements for families with children. The Lime restaurant's buffet breakfast is quite average. It's really not worth paying an extra S$23 for children when you can get authentic Nanyang breakfast at Ya Kun or Toast Box nearby. I must commend the amenities: a full set of Appelles essential oil skincare and haircare products – they smell and feel great. There's also Bacha drip coffee, TWG tea, and a capsule coffee machine.

My kids absolutely loved this hotel! The design is really unique and the room decor is very modern. The breakfast spread was fantastic, and the service was so warm and welcoming. Oh, and the Italian ice cream was absolutely delicious! We'd definitely stay here again if we get the chance.
