Prime hotel in the heart of Singapore city center! After staying here, it’s officially on my must-stay list for Singapore and Malaysia trips|The Ritz-Carlton Millenia Singapore Having traveled to Singapore multiple times for business and leisure, I’ve experienced many overpriced and disappointing hotels in the city. This time, I booked The Ritz-Carlton Millenia Singapore and perfectly avoided the usual problems of city center hotels like noise, cramped rooms, and poor views. From check-in to check-out, everything exceeded my expectations. Whether for short sightseeing trips or business travel, this hotel fits the bill perfectly. 🛏️ Room Experience|Unbeatable Marina Bay Views in the Bustling City I booked a Marina Bay view room, which is especially rare in the prime and expensive core area of Singapore. The entire wall is a floor-to-ceiling glass window facing Marina Bay Sands and the ArtScience Museum. During the day, you see the staggered skyscrapers and winding canals; at dusk, the city lights come on one by one. You can enjoy the iconic city night view right from your bed. The room’s interior is elegantly luxurious, with leather furnishings and soft warm lighting. The brand-customized bedding is moderately firm and soft, instantly relieving fatigue after a long flight. The bathroom has a dry and wet separation with a full set of custom toiletries made from high-quality materials, showcasing luxury in every detail. The hotel’s soundproofing is excellent; despite being next to a busy main road in the city center, closing the door almost completely blocks out traffic and street noise, ensuring a peaceful sleep. During leisure time, you can visit the rooftop open-air pool and soak while enjoying panoramic views of Marina Bay. The 24-hour gym is fully equipped with imported professional machines, and the floor-to-ceiling windows let you work out with a view. 🍽️ Diverse Dining Experience|Taste International Flavors Without Leaving the Hotel The hotel houses several themed restaurants, offering a wide range of dining options for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, so you don’t have to go out searching for food. The buffet breakfast includes local Southeast Asian snacks, Chinese dim sum, Western baked goods, and fresh sashimi. The laksa and Hainanese chicken rice are freshly made and authentic, and the freshly brewed coffee is rich in aroma. The main restaurant specializes in exquisite Western cuisine with carefully selected ingredients; the wagyu steak and imported seafood are cooked to perfection. In the afternoon, you can book the elegant lobby afternoon tea, featuring a variety of sweet and savory snacks paired with specialty teas, with window seats overlooking the cityscape, creating a relaxing atmosphere. At night, the rooftop bar is a hidden gem, offering a variety of original cocktails and bar snacks. Enjoy a drink accompanied by the dazzling Marina Bay night view, and the ambiance is instantly elevated. 📍 Location & Transportation Guide|Explore All of Singapore Efficiently and Worry-Free The hotel is located in the Marina Bay area of Singapore’s city center, truly at the heart of the city. It’s just a few minutes’ walk to Gardens by the Bay and Merlion Park, so you can check off Singapore’s iconic landmarks without long travel. It’s close to multiple MRT stations, making it very convenient to reach Orchard Road shopping district and Chinatown. For those driving, there is a dedicated underground parking lot. A short taxi ride to Sentosa Island takes very little time. Whether you’re traveling independently for sightseeing and dining or on business heading to nearby office buildings and convention centers, the location saves you a lot of travel time. 💡 Practical Tips for Staying|Maximize Your Stay’s Value When checking in, politely ask the front desk if there are any available upgrades to a better view room; you might get a free upgrade if rooms are available. Guests staying in executive rooms enjoy full access to the executive lounge all day, with complimentary light breakfast, afternoon tea, and evening snacks and drinks. If traveling with children, you can request in advance; the hotel provides free children’s toiletries, baby cots, and other amenities, with thoughtful and attentive service in every detail.

1-for-1 Hong Kong-inspired buffet with Boston lobster, snow crab and whole roasted suckling pig 🦞🐷 Canton Street Kitchen at Plate, Carlton City Hotel Singapore brings together Cantonese classics and a generous Seafood on Ice spread for a weekend dinner built around familiar Hong Kong flavours. The centrepiece is the Whole Roasted Suckling Pig, with crisp skin served with cucumber, scallions, hoisin sauce and soft mantou. The Typhoon Shelter Prawns are another highlight, alongside Pork Belly Char Siu and Half-Shell Scallops with Garlic Vermicelli. Seafood on Ice adds Boston lobster, snow crab legs and chilled prawns, with salmon and tuna sashimi rounding out the spread. At $138++ per adult, the 1-for-1 offer is available with eligible Citibank, DBS/POSB, Maybank, OCBC and Standard Chartered cards, effectively $69++ per adult before service charge and GST when dining in pairs. Would you start with the suckling pig or the seafood? . . . . . . . #sgfood #sgfoodie #sgfoodies #sgfoodblogger #sgfoodtrend #sgbuffet #singaporefood #singaporefoodie #singaporeeats #tanjongpagarfood #cantonstreetkitchen #platecarltoncity #carltoncityhotel #hongkongfood #singaporebuffet

🌞 Singapore – Malacca The weather was great these two days, and the views along the way were nice. I got to see the sunrise, sunset, and even the starry sky (though it wasn’t super stunning because of the thick clouds 🌥️). Normally I get motion sickness quite easily, but this time the sea was calm, so I felt fine the whole trip! 🙌 🎭 What I Did I didn’t end up trying the rock climbing wall, ropes course, or water slides. The boarding process drained all my energy — I had to stand in line for over an hour and then sit waiting for another hour 🥲. In Malacca, we had to wait about an hour for the tender boat back to the ship. Exhausting! So most of the time onboard was just eating and relaxing in the room 😴. I watched both shows: Voyage of a Lover’s Dream (I think that’s what it was called?) — a mix of magic, acrobatics, and singing/dancing. It was really good! The female performers were gorgeous and super cool 💃, and there were plenty of buff guys showing off their muscles 👀. Fabulous Chan — very interactive, high-energy atmosphere. Multilingual songs, but honestly pretty obvious lip-syncing 😂. Some of the interactive moments might not be suitable for kids 🧒. 🍽️ What I Ate We had breakfast and dinner at the Lido buffet. The food wasn’t as bad (or as amazing) as some online reviews claim — just decent overall. There was always something we could eat. One meal had braised noodles that we really liked — totally something we’d eat regularly if it was near home. #gentingdream #singaporecruise #travel #cruiselife #seaview #cruise #malacca

Wow — the Starbucks at Chinatown is on another level. Easily one of the prettiest outlets I’ve seen in Singapore. I absolutely love how well they preserved the heritage shophouse vibe here. This outlet also has exclusive, limited-edition drinks. A friend tried one and felt it might not suit his taste buds — maybe it’s something foreigners would appreciate more than locals. I didn’t try it myself, but that's s the Yuan Yang Coffee Frappe Hojicha, I'm taking about. . #starbucks #chinatown #singaporestarbucks #sgstarbucks #sgshophouse Wow — the Starbucks at Chinatown is on another level.

You don’t always need to pay for an expensive observation deck to get an amazing Singapore sunset. One of my favourite ways to watch the city turn on its evening lights is CÉ LA VI Singapore, on Level 57 of Marina Bay Sands Tower 3. For S$38 per person, you get a premium drink — cocktail, wine, beer or a non-alcoholic option — and, most importantly, a proper place to sit and enjoy the view. You’re looking straight across Marina Bay, with the famous infinity pool and Singapore skyline in front of you. The atmosphere is much more relaxed than a typical observation deck. Come around 5:30–6:00 PM, grab a seat, watch the sunset, then stay as the city lights come on. There’s also music and a DJ later in the evening, so you can easily turn sunset into a few hours out. 📍 CÉ LA VI Singapore, Marina Bay Sands Tower 3 💰 S$38 including one premium drink 🌅 Best time: around 5:30–6:00 PM 🎧 DJ from around 7:30 PM For me, this is one of those Singapore experiences where the price actually makes sense. Would you pay S$38 for this view + a drink? #singapore #singaporetravel #marinabaysands #celavi #singaporesunset #singaporenightlife #singaporetips #travelsingapore #marinabay #singaporeviews #singaporebars #singapore2026 #travelasia #tripmoments #harborviews

First time staying at The RuMA Hotel , and I’m already loving this property. And congratulations again to the team on retaining One MICHELIN Key for the second consecutive year. · What I enjoyed most was discovering the little stories behind the hotel. RuMa comes from rumah, the Malay word for “home”, and you can really see that idea carried through the design. From the Bird Cage at the entrance, inspired by the canary cages once used in KL’s tin mines, to the grand staircase and Bernard Chandran’s striking golden kebaya sculpture, there’s so much character throughout the property. · The location is another plus. Being right in Kuala Lumpur’s Golden Triangle, with KLCC and Pavilion nearby, made exploring the city really convenient. · There was some time to enjoy the hotel’s facilities too, from the 25 metre infinity pool and 24 hour gym to UR SPA. And of course, I spent quite a bit of time eating and drinking my way around the property. · My timing worked out perfectly with @guum.sg dinner collaboration at @atas.kl , where @chef_louishan brings his modern Korean steakhouse to The RuMa until November. Over at SEVEN Lobby Bar, a gin-focused cocktail bar with more than 77 types of gin, I tried their three drink cocktail flight featuring local flavours like kaya and pandan. · Breakfast and lunch were both at ATAS, while afternoon tea at The LIBRARI featured their Chapters of RuMa afternoon tea, presented on a handcrafted congkak board, with each “chapter” bringing together savoury bites, sweets, scones and pralines. The following day, lunch at SANTAI by the infinity pool was a more relaxed affair, with the KL skyline right in front of us. · It was my first stay at The RuMa, and I can already see why The RuMa has such a following. As for the Deluxe King Suite I stayed in during this trip, I’ll leave that for the next post. #luxuryhotel #luxurytravel #luxurystay #hotelstay #hotelexperience #travelmalaysia #malaysiatravel #visitmalaysia #kualalumpur #visitkl #explorekl #therumahotel

Baru landing di Singapura? The first stop wajib banget ke Changi Airport’s iconic waterfall, aka the Rain Vortex, which is literally jaw-dropping 🤩. Bikin feed kamu langsung naik level! Next up, jangan lewatkan Merlion Park and snap pic bareng patung singa legendaris itu! Spot ini tuh udah jadi kult banget sebagai simbol Singapura. Dari situ, kamu bisa chill sambil ngepoin Marina Bay Sands—skyline-nya bener-bener aesthetic parah 🏙️. And of course, Gardens by the Bay! Biar vibes Singapura makin kerasa, wajib explore Supertree Grove yang sekeren itu dan jangan lupa cek Flower Dome. Pas sunset, tempat ini super dreamy! Gardens by the Bay buka tiap hari, jam 5 pagi–2 dini hari (18 Marina Gardens Dr, Singapore 018953). Seharian muter-muter Singapura, rasanya puas banget deh. Sediain stamina ekstra biar bisa explore banyak spot tanpa skip! Jangan lupa, semua tiket masuk dan rekomendasi destinasi bisa kamu cari di trip.com, ya. #singaporetrip

#hellochristmas Just checked out from a staycay at The Standard Singapore and I’m already plotting my return. I booked a One Bedroom Suite and the moment I walked in, I was blown away — the ceilings are insanely high, giving the whole space this airy, architectural drama you don’t usually get in hotels here. The room design feels playful but luxe: bold colors, great textures, and little details that make you smile. Plenty of space for my pet dog too — and yes, they’re genuinely pet-friendly, not “pet-tolerant.” My dog was living her best life lounging around like she owned the place. Service was attentive without being stiff, and the location is perfect for a quick city escape. Whether you’re cuddling up with a furry friend or just treating yourself, this hotel nails the vibe: fun, stylish, and effortlessly comfortable. Highly recommend — especially if you’re a sucker for great design and pet-friendly stays #petfriendlystays

Not your usual sushi-focused omakase. What I really enjoyed about Ikkoten is how much thought goes into seasonality, texture and balance. The chef loves playing with contrasts, creamy against crisp, richer flavours paired with something lighter and refreshing, so nothing feels too heavy. Their 15-course Hana menu is inspired by Autumn, with seasonal ingredients woven throughout the experience. Some of my favourites were the signature Chilean seabass with nori butter and A5 Wagyu sukiyaki with foie gras. And as the meal moves into the sushi courses and finally dessert, everything just flows so naturally. Every course brings something different, yet somehow it all comes together beautifully. 🍣🍂 📍 Ikkoten Omakase, Telok Ayer #ikkoten #ikkotenomakase #singaporeomakase #omakasesingapore

Address: St. Giles Southkey, Jalan Persiaran Southkey 1, Southkey, 80150 Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia Price: 💰💰 Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Conveniently nestled at Midvalley Southkey, St. Giles Southkey Hotel offers seamless access to a plethora of shopping arcades, entertainment hubs, and local attractions. Our check-in experience, however, left much to be desired. Upon our arrival at 1 pm, we promptly dropped off our luggage before heading out for lunch. Yet, when we returned at 3 pm to retrieve our room keys and belongings, we found ourselves queuing at the concierge for a frustrating 35 minutes. A more efficient check-in system could significantly enhance the guest experience. Despite this initial setback, the hotel did offer a redeemable welcome drink—a refreshing guava ice blend—at their rooftop bar. Complimentary Bandung drink and water were also available in the lobby, though finding seating amidst the hotel's popularity proved challenging. Entering our room, we were greeted by a spacious and luminous interior. The room boasted a cozy window lounge area, plush bedding, essential amenities including toiletries and an iron board, as well as a convenient refillable water jug (located in the corridor). While the majority of the room was pristine, one of the pillows emitted a sour odor, and we noticed slight staining on the bathroom floor. The hotel's expansive gym offered an array of equipment, while the pool, though slightly compact, afforded picturesque views of Johor. However, on our Sunday visit, we detected a faint odor emanating from the pool, possibly indicating infrequent cleaning. Breakfast surpassed our expectations, showcasing an impressive array of pastries and Malaysian delicacies, with the standout being their teh tarik. Despite the breakfast's excellence, securing a table proved challenging, especially around peak hours. This hotel excels in convenience and culinary offerings, our experience was marred by lengthy queues and cleanliness issues. Nonetheless, for those seeking proximity to shopping and entertainment options, this hotel remains a compelling choice. #familytrips2024

Checking off the second Design Property in Singapore and marking my first Bonvoy stay for the year ✅ Used 44k points to try this for one night and thought it was an only okay deal, most notably because there is limited elite benefits including having to pay for breakfast (gasp!) 😝 With no pre-arrival communication, I was pleasantly surprised to be accorded a 5-tier Heritage Suite from my booked base room, and getting it at 1pm ahead of the official check in time. The space was actually quite nice with its modern furnishing and pops of colors in a shophouse setting. I like the neat layout, the Dyson hairdryer, and the comfy bed BUT I cannot watch TV in bed leh. #priorities 🥶 Breakfast at Kee’s was a very moderated buffet spread with ala carte egg dishes made to order - just enough value for its $35++ price (for in-house guests if added to room versus walk in). Great Greek yoghurt too 🥛 Def wouldn’t stay here on cash but for a points stay - okay la now I can say I’ve stayed 🔮

If you think a short two-hour flight doesn't offer much in First Class… think again. The dining experience is the absolute highlight! 😂🍾 This was Singapore Airlines First Class on the Boeing 777-300ER. What sets it apart from standard flying is how perfectly everything is paced—it’s a relaxed "dine at your own pace" experience where you arrive before you know it. 🍾 Starting strong with Cristal 2015 The real showstopper was the Louis Roederer Cristal 2015 🥂. Serving champagne of this caliber on a short hop from Jakarta to Singapore is a moment where you realize… yeah, this is truly First Class 😂. Sipping chilled champagne in the privacy of your seat while taking in the views—the atmosphere is just unmatched. 🍜 The Main Course I chose the Cantonese Lobster Dumplings in Superior Chicken Soup. These lobster dumplings served in a clear chicken broth with Chinese greens and mushrooms are simple yet sophisticated, making them perfect for an evening flight 🍜. The dumplings were tender and generously filled, while the broth was light and satisfying. With a variety of side dishes, including salad, appetizers, and dessert, the meal felt like a proper light dinner rather than typical airline catering. 🥖 Bread & Butter are a must Another highlight was the Assorted Bread Rolls & Gourmet Breads served with butter or flavored olive oil. Warm bread on a plane is a total game-changer lol. Paired with champagne, it’s a simple yet incredibly enjoyable combination. 🍮 A Sweet Ending For dessert, the menu featured a Nutty Caramel Tart. It’s a rich, nutty, and sweet treat—the perfect way to round off the savory courses. If you’re a fan of nutty desserts, you’ll love this. ☕ Afterward, there’s a selection of Coffee & Tea so you can sip on something warm while finishing your movie or music. 🥂 Final Thoughts on Dining For a flight that lasts only two hours, Singapore Airlines ensures the meal feels like anything but "airplane food." From the Cristal 2015 to the Lobster Dumplings and every course in between, everything is sequenced for a comfortable and refined experience. Honestly, even if you don't focus on the seat itself, the fine dining and the Cristal on board make this short flight a truly memorable experience. 🍾✈️

As soon as you step out of the City Hall MRT station, you're immediately surrounded by countless skyscrapers. The modern vibe is incredibly strong, making you feel like you've entered the very heart of Singapore. Strolling along the riverside, with the breeze gently blowing and the city’s skyline reflected on the water, you’ll find your pace naturally slowing down. Follow the riverside path, and you’ll eventually reach Singapore’s most iconic landmark—the Merlion. Along the way, you’ll see many locals jogging or walking, giving the city a lively yet relaxed atmosphere. It’s hard not to think: this is a city that truly knows how to live. Whether you’re taking a walk during the day or in the evening, Singapore’s city center is perfect for exploring on foot.

Autumn has arrived at Ikkoten, and the new seasonal omakase brings some of the richest flavours of the year to its intimate counter in Telok Ayer. The 15-course Hana experience moves beyond a sushi-focused omakase, reflecting Ikkoten’s kaiseki influence through a progression of raw and cooked courses. Autumn ingredients appear throughout, from cold matsutake chawanmushi to kabocha ebi shinjo with edamame purée and uni. The signature Chilean seabass with nori butter remains a memorable part of the meal, while A5 wagyu sukiyaki with foie gras, seasonal vegetables and shishito sauce brings a deeper richness before the sushi courses begin. Mongo ika, aka ebi, chutoro and buri lead into the signature negitoro uni monaka, combining creamy tuna and uni with a crisp shell. A light yuzu clear dashi resets the palate before an autumn chestnut Mont Blanc closes the experience. With only 12 seats around the counter, the setting keeps the focus on each course and its preparation. Ikkoten’s Autumn menus run from September through November, making this a seasonal experience with a limited window. Which autumn course would you want to try first? . . . . . . . #sgfood #sgfoodie #sgfoodies #sgfoodblogger #singaporefood #singaporefoodie #singaporeeats #sgdining #telokayer #sgrestaurant #ikkoten #omakase #omakasesg #japanesefoodsg #kaiseki

For my recent trip to Singapore, I chose the Mercure Singapore Bugis (Waterloo Street) as my home base. The biggest draw was definitely the location—it's incredibly convenient. Both Bugis and Bencoolen MRT stations are just a few minutes away on foot, making it a breeze to head over to Orchard Road for some shopping or to Marina Bay for a night out. Plus, there are hawker centers and two major malls right nearby, so grabbing authentic local eats or picking up souvenirs is totally hassle-free. The hotel is centrally located at 78 Waterloo Street. It’s nestled between two MRT stations in a safe neighborhood that's perfect for a late-night stroll. You can easily walk to the National Museum of Singapore and Fort Canning Park. If you're not in the mood for a long walk, popular breakfast spots like Ya Kun Kaya Toast and Killiney Kopitiam are just around the corner, offering everything from classic Singaporean breakfasts to local fusion dishes. Getting to the heart of the matter—while the room isn’t the largest, the design is compact and modern. It’s genuinely clean and cozy, and the floor-to-ceiling windows let in plenty of morning sunlight, which is perfect for someone like me who loves a city view to start the day. The amenities are surprisingly complete; they’ve got all sorts of charging ports (Type-C and USB included) and even a filtered water system, so you don't have to keep buying bottled water. A real standout feature is the in-room computer equipped with YouTube and Netflix—you’ll never be bored even if you decide to stay in for the night. On the second floor, there’s a gym and a swimming pool, ideal for a morning workout or a relaxing evening dip. The self-service check-in and check-out process is quick and easy, and most of the front desk staff are bilingual in Mandarin and English, making communication effortless. Any issues are resolved almost instantly. Overall, this hotel offers great value for money. I’d recommend it to both leisure and business travelers, especially those who value transit convenience and comfort. Staying in this area means you can get anywhere within 15 minutes!

Singapore is an incredible city, but its fast pace can easily get a bit intense for a Brussels native like me who loves quiet afternoons on a terrace. Luckily, I found a lovely spot to unwind: the Furama RiverFront. What charmed me the moment I arrived was the spacious lobby with its massive six-meter waterfall. I grabbed a seat at the Waterfall Lounge to read for a while, lulled by the soothing sound of the cascading water and surrounded by tropical palm trees. It was a beautiful, timeless moment. My room was incredibly spacious and flooded with gorgeous natural light—a must-have for me. The view of the river and the skyline from the windows was simply stunning. Plus, the location is perfect for those who love to walk: the Havelock MRT station is just a short five-minute stroll away. In the evenings, I loved wandering along the riverbanks down to Clarke Quay or extending my walk to the vibrant, bustling streets of Chinatown. One morning, while passing by the outdoor pool, I stopped to watch two little dogs playing happily near the hot tub. It’s these little slices of everyday life that give a place such a warm, welcoming vibe. On the practical side, the hotel offers excellent value for money by Singapore standards. A quick tip if you're planning a stay: opt for a room on the higher floors for the best views, as some of the property's older sections could use a little updating. But all in all, it was a wonderful, relaxing getaway.

Singapore is renowned for its impeccable safety, clean streets, and futuristic architecture. · 📍 Must-Visit Spots: · Gardens by the Bay: The massive Supertrees and Cloud Forest Dome are iconic landmarks of Singapore. Don't miss the nighttime light show (Garden Rhapsody)! 🌲💡 · Marina Bay Sands: Even if you're not staying there, enjoy the fountain show in the front yard or visit the observation deck. 🏨🌊 · Sentosa Island: The perfect place for activities like Universal Studios and the Luge. 🎢🏖️ · 🍴 Culinary Highlights: · Chili Crab: A must-try dish in Singapore! The key is to dip the 'mantou' into the sauce. 🦀🌶️ · Bak Kut Teh: A nourishing dish similar to Korean galbitang. Song Fa Bak Kut Teh is the most famous. · 💡 Pro Tip: The public transport system (MRT) is highly efficient, so use a travel card or contactless card for convenient travel.

Discovered an amazing hidden gem hotel in Bangkok, featuring a stunning rooftop pool with breathtaking views and a warm, welcoming experience.

The Edition Singapore When you come to Singapore, don’t just focus on Marina Bay Sands. This hidden gem in the Orchard Road shopping district, The Edition, is a secret favorite among savvy travelers. 📍Perfect Location The hotel is right on Orchard Boulevard, just a 5-minute walk to ION Orchard shopping mall, and downstairs is Singapore’s busiest shopping street. It’s a 15-minute taxi ride to Gardens by the Bay, about 25 minutes to Changi Airport, and a 10-minute walk to Orchard MRT station. Everything you need for dining, shopping, and entertainment is nearby, including Ya Kun Kaya Toast and Jumbo Seafood. 🛏️How to Choose Your Room The standard rooms start at 38 square meters, which is quite spacious for Singapore. I recommend upgrading to a deluxe room with floor-to-ceiling windows facing the city skyline—watching the night view is very soothing. If your budget allows, go for a suite with separate living and bedroom areas and a bathroom with a standalone bathtub, perfect for photos. Be sure to book early on Trip.com, as weekends often sell out. 💰Money-Saving Tips Avoid the F1 season and Christmas-New Year period to save about a third on room rates. Tuesdays and Wednesdays usually offer the best prices, and discounts often apply for stays longer than two nights. The hotel’s pool and gym are free for guests, so no extra charges there. ✨Why It’s Worth Staying Here The design is top-notch. Designed by architect Moshe Safdie, the exterior looks like a vertical garden. The lobby’s high ceilings and green walls create a strong vacation vibe as soon as you enter. The rooms feature The Edition’s signature natural wood and linen style—no flashy gimmicks, just understated luxury that quietly says, “I’m expensive but I don’t brag.” The rooftop pool is a hidden gem. The infinity pool faces the cityscape, and soaking there at dusk while watching Orchard Road’s neon lights come on is much more relaxing than the crowded Marina Bay Sands SkyPark. There’s a bar by the pool where you can order a Singapore Sling—this is the right way to enjoy a holiday. Don’t sleep in on breakfast. The semi-buffet style includes must-try Eggs Benedict and Laksa, freshly made and served hot, far better than cold buffet counters. The restaurant has great natural light, and sitting by the window in the morning to eat slowly is truly healing. The service details are very touching. Handmade chocolates are given at check-in, turndown service arranges slippers neatly and adjusts curtains to just the right light level—these small touches are well done. The front desk offers Chinese service, so no worries if your English isn’t strong. This hotel isn’t as flashy as Marina Bay Sands, but those who have stayed here know how good it is. It’s perfect for travelers who want a quiet, quality holiday experience. Next time you visit Singapore, give it a chance.

Prime hotel in the heart of Singapore city center! After staying here, it’s officially on my must-stay list for Singapore and Malaysia trips|The Ritz-Carlton Millenia Singapore Having traveled to Singapore multiple times for business and leisure, I’ve experienced many overpriced and disappointing hotels in the city. This time, I booked The Ritz-Carlton Millenia Singapore and perfectly avoided the usual problems of city center hotels like noise, cramped rooms, and poor views. From check-in to check-out, everything exceeded my expectations. Whether for short sightseeing trips or business travel, this hotel fits the bill perfectly. 🛏️ Room Experience|Unbeatable Marina Bay Views in the Bustling City I booked a Marina Bay view room, which is especially rare in the prime and expensive core area of Singapore. The entire wall is a floor-to-ceiling glass window facing Marina Bay Sands and the ArtScience Museum. During the day, you see the staggered skyscrapers and winding canals; at dusk, the city lights come on one by one. You can enjoy the iconic city night view right from your bed. The room’s interior is elegantly luxurious, with leather furnishings and soft warm lighting. The brand-customized bedding is moderately firm and soft, instantly relieving fatigue after a long flight. The bathroom has a dry and wet separation with a full set of custom toiletries made from high-quality materials, showcasing luxury in every detail. The hotel’s soundproofing is excellent; despite being next to a busy main road in the city center, closing the door almost completely blocks out traffic and street noise, ensuring a peaceful sleep. During leisure time, you can visit the rooftop open-air pool and soak while enjoying panoramic views of Marina Bay. The 24-hour gym is fully equipped with imported professional machines, and the floor-to-ceiling windows let you work out with a view. 🍽️ Diverse Dining Experience|Taste International Flavors Without Leaving the Hotel The hotel houses several themed restaurants, offering a wide range of dining options for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, so you don’t have to go out searching for food. The buffet breakfast includes local Southeast Asian snacks, Chinese dim sum, Western baked goods, and fresh sashimi. The laksa and Hainanese chicken rice are freshly made and authentic, and the freshly brewed coffee is rich in aroma. The main restaurant specializes in exquisite Western cuisine with carefully selected ingredients; the wagyu steak and imported seafood are cooked to perfection. In the afternoon, you can book the elegant lobby afternoon tea, featuring a variety of sweet and savory snacks paired with specialty teas, with window seats overlooking the cityscape, creating a relaxing atmosphere. At night, the rooftop bar is a hidden gem, offering a variety of original cocktails and bar snacks. Enjoy a drink accompanied by the dazzling Marina Bay night view, and the ambiance is instantly elevated. 📍 Location & Transportation Guide|Explore All of Singapore Efficiently and Worry-Free The hotel is located in the Marina Bay area of Singapore’s city center, truly at the heart of the city. It’s just a few minutes’ walk to Gardens by the Bay and Merlion Park, so you can check off Singapore’s iconic landmarks without long travel. It’s close to multiple MRT stations, making it very convenient to reach Orchard Road shopping district and Chinatown. For those driving, there is a dedicated underground parking lot. A short taxi ride to Sentosa Island takes very little time. Whether you’re traveling independently for sightseeing and dining or on business heading to nearby office buildings and convention centers, the location saves you a lot of travel time. 💡 Practical Tips for Staying|Maximize Your Stay’s Value When checking in, politely ask the front desk if there are any available upgrades to a better view room; you might get a free upgrade if rooms are available. Guests staying in executive rooms enjoy full access to the executive lounge all day, with complimentary light breakfast, afternoon tea, and evening snacks and drinks. If traveling with children, you can request in advance; the hotel provides free children’s toiletries, baby cots, and other amenities, with thoughtful and attentive service in every detail.

1-for-1 Hong Kong-inspired buffet with Boston lobster, snow crab and whole roasted suckling pig 🦞🐷 Canton Street Kitchen at Plate, Carlton City Hotel Singapore brings together Cantonese classics and a generous Seafood on Ice spread for a weekend dinner built around familiar Hong Kong flavours. The centrepiece is the Whole Roasted Suckling Pig, with crisp skin served with cucumber, scallions, hoisin sauce and soft mantou. The Typhoon Shelter Prawns are another highlight, alongside Pork Belly Char Siu and Half-Shell Scallops with Garlic Vermicelli. Seafood on Ice adds Boston lobster, snow crab legs and chilled prawns, with salmon and tuna sashimi rounding out the spread. At $138++ per adult, the 1-for-1 offer is available with eligible Citibank, DBS/POSB, Maybank, OCBC and Standard Chartered cards, effectively $69++ per adult before service charge and GST when dining in pairs. Would you start with the suckling pig or the seafood? . . . . . . . #sgfood #sgfoodie #sgfoodies #sgfoodblogger #sgfoodtrend #sgbuffet #singaporefood #singaporefoodie #singaporeeats #tanjongpagarfood #cantonstreetkitchen #platecarltoncity #carltoncityhotel #hongkongfood #singaporebuffet

🌞 Singapore – Malacca The weather was great these two days, and the views along the way were nice. I got to see the sunrise, sunset, and even the starry sky (though it wasn’t super stunning because of the thick clouds 🌥️). Normally I get motion sickness quite easily, but this time the sea was calm, so I felt fine the whole trip! 🙌 🎭 What I Did I didn’t end up trying the rock climbing wall, ropes course, or water slides. The boarding process drained all my energy — I had to stand in line for over an hour and then sit waiting for another hour 🥲. In Malacca, we had to wait about an hour for the tender boat back to the ship. Exhausting! So most of the time onboard was just eating and relaxing in the room 😴. I watched both shows: Voyage of a Lover’s Dream (I think that’s what it was called?) — a mix of magic, acrobatics, and singing/dancing. It was really good! The female performers were gorgeous and super cool 💃, and there were plenty of buff guys showing off their muscles 👀. Fabulous Chan — very interactive, high-energy atmosphere. Multilingual songs, but honestly pretty obvious lip-syncing 😂. Some of the interactive moments might not be suitable for kids 🧒. 🍽️ What I Ate We had breakfast and dinner at the Lido buffet. The food wasn’t as bad (or as amazing) as some online reviews claim — just decent overall. There was always something we could eat. One meal had braised noodles that we really liked — totally something we’d eat regularly if it was near home. #gentingdream #singaporecruise #travel #cruiselife #seaview #cruise #malacca

Wow — the Starbucks at Chinatown is on another level. Easily one of the prettiest outlets I’ve seen in Singapore. I absolutely love how well they preserved the heritage shophouse vibe here. This outlet also has exclusive, limited-edition drinks. A friend tried one and felt it might not suit his taste buds — maybe it’s something foreigners would appreciate more than locals. I didn’t try it myself, but that's s the Yuan Yang Coffee Frappe Hojicha, I'm taking about. . #starbucks #chinatown #singaporestarbucks #sgstarbucks #sgshophouse Wow — the Starbucks at Chinatown is on another level.

You don’t always need to pay for an expensive observation deck to get an amazing Singapore sunset. One of my favourite ways to watch the city turn on its evening lights is CÉ LA VI Singapore, on Level 57 of Marina Bay Sands Tower 3. For S$38 per person, you get a premium drink — cocktail, wine, beer or a non-alcoholic option — and, most importantly, a proper place to sit and enjoy the view. You’re looking straight across Marina Bay, with the famous infinity pool and Singapore skyline in front of you. The atmosphere is much more relaxed than a typical observation deck. Come around 5:30–6:00 PM, grab a seat, watch the sunset, then stay as the city lights come on. There’s also music and a DJ later in the evening, so you can easily turn sunset into a few hours out. 📍 CÉ LA VI Singapore, Marina Bay Sands Tower 3 💰 S$38 including one premium drink 🌅 Best time: around 5:30–6:00 PM 🎧 DJ from around 7:30 PM For me, this is one of those Singapore experiences where the price actually makes sense. Would you pay S$38 for this view + a drink? #singapore #singaporetravel #marinabaysands #celavi #singaporesunset #singaporenightlife #singaporetips #travelsingapore #marinabay #singaporeviews #singaporebars #singapore2026 #travelasia #tripmoments #harborviews

First time staying at The RuMA Hotel , and I’m already loving this property. And congratulations again to the team on retaining One MICHELIN Key for the second consecutive year. · What I enjoyed most was discovering the little stories behind the hotel. RuMa comes from rumah, the Malay word for “home”, and you can really see that idea carried through the design. From the Bird Cage at the entrance, inspired by the canary cages once used in KL’s tin mines, to the grand staircase and Bernard Chandran’s striking golden kebaya sculpture, there’s so much character throughout the property. · The location is another plus. Being right in Kuala Lumpur’s Golden Triangle, with KLCC and Pavilion nearby, made exploring the city really convenient. · There was some time to enjoy the hotel’s facilities too, from the 25 metre infinity pool and 24 hour gym to UR SPA. And of course, I spent quite a bit of time eating and drinking my way around the property. · My timing worked out perfectly with @guum.sg dinner collaboration at @atas.kl , where @chef_louishan brings his modern Korean steakhouse to The RuMa until November. Over at SEVEN Lobby Bar, a gin-focused cocktail bar with more than 77 types of gin, I tried their three drink cocktail flight featuring local flavours like kaya and pandan. · Breakfast and lunch were both at ATAS, while afternoon tea at The LIBRARI featured their Chapters of RuMa afternoon tea, presented on a handcrafted congkak board, with each “chapter” bringing together savoury bites, sweets, scones and pralines. The following day, lunch at SANTAI by the infinity pool was a more relaxed affair, with the KL skyline right in front of us. · It was my first stay at The RuMa, and I can already see why The RuMa has such a following. As for the Deluxe King Suite I stayed in during this trip, I’ll leave that for the next post. #luxuryhotel #luxurytravel #luxurystay #hotelstay #hotelexperience #travelmalaysia #malaysiatravel #visitmalaysia #kualalumpur #visitkl #explorekl #therumahotel

Baru landing di Singapura? The first stop wajib banget ke Changi Airport’s iconic waterfall, aka the Rain Vortex, which is literally jaw-dropping 🤩. Bikin feed kamu langsung naik level! Next up, jangan lewatkan Merlion Park and snap pic bareng patung singa legendaris itu! Spot ini tuh udah jadi kult banget sebagai simbol Singapura. Dari situ, kamu bisa chill sambil ngepoin Marina Bay Sands—skyline-nya bener-bener aesthetic parah 🏙️. And of course, Gardens by the Bay! Biar vibes Singapura makin kerasa, wajib explore Supertree Grove yang sekeren itu dan jangan lupa cek Flower Dome. Pas sunset, tempat ini super dreamy! Gardens by the Bay buka tiap hari, jam 5 pagi–2 dini hari (18 Marina Gardens Dr, Singapore 018953). Seharian muter-muter Singapura, rasanya puas banget deh.

#hellochristmas Just checked out from a staycay at The Standard Singapore and I’m already plotting my return. I booked a One Bedroom Suite and the moment I walked in, I was blown away — the ceilings are insanely high, giving the whole space this airy, architectural drama you don’t usually get in hotels here. The room design feels playful but luxe: bold colors, great textures, and little details that make you smile. Plenty of space for my pet dog too — and yes, they’re genuinely pet-friendly, not “pet-tolerant.” My dog was living her best life lounging around like she owned the place. Service was attentive without being stiff, and the location is perfect for a quick city escape. Whether you’re cuddling up with a furry friend or just treating yourself, this hotel nails the vibe: fun, stylish, and effortlessly comfortable. Highly recommend — especially if you’re a sucker for great design and pet-friendly stays #petfriendlystays

Not your usual sushi-focused omakase. What I really enjoyed about Ikkoten is how much thought goes into seasonality, texture and balance. The chef loves playing with contrasts, creamy against crisp, richer flavours paired with something lighter and refreshing, so nothing feels too heavy. Their 15-course Hana menu is inspired by Autumn, with seasonal ingredients woven throughout the experience. Some of my favourites were the signature Chilean seabass with nori butter and A5 Wagyu sukiyaki with foie gras. And as the meal moves into the sushi courses and finally dessert, everything just flows so naturally. Every course brings something different, yet somehow it all comes together beautifully. 🍣🍂 📍 Ikkoten Omakase, Telok Ayer #ikkoten #ikkotenomakase #singaporeomakase #omakasesingapore

Address: St. Giles Southkey, Jalan Persiaran Southkey 1, Southkey, 80150 Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia Price: 💰💰 Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Conveniently nestled at Midvalley Southkey, St. Giles Southkey Hotel offers seamless access to a plethora of shopping arcades, entertainment hubs, and local attractions. Our check-in experience, however, left much to be desired. Upon our arrival at 1 pm, we promptly dropped off our luggage before heading out for lunch. Yet, when we returned at 3 pm to retrieve our room keys and belongings, we found ourselves queuing at the concierge for a frustrating 35 minutes. A more efficient check-in system could significantly enhance the guest experience. Despite this initial setback, the hotel did offer a redeemable welcome drink—a refreshing guava ice blend—at their rooftop bar. Complimentary Bandung drink and water were also available in the lobby, though finding seating amidst the hotel's popularity proved challenging. Entering our room, we were greeted by a spacious and luminous interior. The room boasted a cozy window lounge area, plush bedding, essential amenities including toiletries and an iron board, as well as a convenient refillable water jug (located in the corridor). While the majority of the room was pristine, one of the pillows emitted a sour odor, and we noticed slight staining on the bathroom floor. The hotel's expansive gym offered an array of equipment, while the pool, though slightly compact, afforded picturesque views of Johor. However, on our Sunday visit, we detected a faint odor emanating from the pool, possibly indicating infrequent cleaning. Breakfast surpassed our expectations, showcasing an impressive array of pastries and Malaysian delicacies, with the standout being their teh tarik. Despite the breakfast's excellence, securing a table proved challenging, especially around peak hours. This hotel excels in convenience and culinary offerings, our experience was marred by lengthy queues and cleanliness issues. Nonetheless, for those seeking proximity to shopping and entertainment options, this hotel remains a compelling choice. #familytrips2024

Checking off the second Design Property in Singapore and marking my first Bonvoy stay for the year ✅ Used 44k points to try this for one night and thought it was an only okay deal, most notably because there is limited elite benefits including having to pay for breakfast (gasp!) 😝 With no pre-arrival communication, I was pleasantly surprised to be accorded a 5-tier Heritage Suite from my booked base room, and getting it at 1pm ahead of the official check in time. The space was actually quite nice with its modern furnishing and pops of colors in a shophouse setting. I like the neat layout, the Dyson hairdryer, and the comfy bed BUT I cannot watch TV in bed leh. #priorities 🥶 Breakfast at Kee’s was a very moderated buffet spread with ala carte egg dishes made to order - just enough value for its $35++ price (for in-house guests if added to room versus walk in). Great Greek yoghurt too 🥛 Def wouldn’t stay here on cash but for a points stay - okay la now I can say I’ve stayed 🔮

If you think a short two-hour flight doesn't offer much in First Class… think again. The dining experience is the absolute highlight! 😂🍾 This was Singapore Airlines First Class on the Boeing 777-300ER. What sets it apart from standard flying is how perfectly everything is paced—it’s a relaxed "dine at your own pace" experience where you arrive before you know it. 🍾 Starting strong with Cristal 2015 The real showstopper was the Louis Roederer Cristal 2015 🥂. Serving champagne of this caliber on a short hop from Jakarta to Singapore is a moment where you realize… yeah, this is truly First Class 😂. Sipping chilled champagne in the privacy of your seat while taking in the views—the atmosphere is just unmatched. 🍜 The Main Course I chose the Cantonese Lobster Dumplings in Superior Chicken Soup. These lobster dumplings served in a clear chicken broth with Chinese greens and mushrooms are simple yet sophisticated, making them perfect for an evening flight 🍜. The dumplings were tender and generously filled, while the broth was light and satisfying. With a variety of side dishes, including salad, appetizers, and dessert, the meal felt like a proper light dinner rather than typical airline catering. 🥖 Bread & Butter are a must Another highlight was the Assorted Bread Rolls & Gourmet Breads served with butter or flavored olive oil. Warm bread on a plane is a total game-changer lol. Paired with champagne, it’s a simple yet incredibly enjoyable combination. 🍮 A Sweet Ending For dessert, the menu featured a Nutty Caramel Tart. It’s a rich, nutty, and sweet treat—the perfect way to round off the savory courses. If you’re a fan of nutty desserts, you’ll love this. ☕ Afterward, there’s a selection of Coffee & Tea so you can sip on something warm while finishing your movie or music. 🥂 Final Thoughts on Dining For a flight that lasts only two hours, Singapore Airlines ensures the meal feels like anything but "airplane food." From the Cristal 2015 to the Lobster Dumplings and every course in between, everything is sequenced for a comfortable and refined experience. Honestly, even if you don't focus on the seat itself, the fine dining and the Cristal on board make this short flight a truly memorable experience. 🍾✈️

As soon as you step out of the City Hall MRT station, you're immediately surrounded by countless skyscrapers. The modern vibe is incredibly strong, making you feel like you've entered the very heart of Singapore. Strolling along the riverside, with the breeze gently blowing and the city’s skyline reflected on the water, you’ll find your pace naturally slowing down. Follow the riverside path, and you’ll eventually reach Singapore’s most iconic landmark—the Merlion. Along the way, you’ll see many locals jogging or walking, giving the city a lively yet relaxed atmosphere. It’s hard not to think: this is a city that truly knows how to live. Whether you’re taking a walk during the day or in the evening, Singapore’s city center is perfect for exploring on foot.

Autumn has arrived at Ikkoten, and the new seasonal omakase brings some of the richest flavours of the year to its intimate counter in Telok Ayer. The 15-course Hana experience moves beyond a sushi-focused omakase, reflecting Ikkoten’s kaiseki influence through a progression of raw and cooked courses. Autumn ingredients appear throughout, from cold matsutake chawanmushi to kabocha ebi shinjo with edamame purée and uni. The signature Chilean seabass with nori butter remains a memorable part of the meal, while A5 wagyu sukiyaki with foie gras, seasonal vegetables and shishito sauce brings a deeper richness before the sushi courses begin. Mongo ika, aka ebi, chutoro and buri lead into the signature negitoro uni monaka, combining creamy tuna and uni with a crisp shell. A light yuzu clear dashi resets the palate before an autumn chestnut Mont Blanc closes the experience. With only 12 seats around the counter, the setting keeps the focus on each course and its preparation. Ikkoten’s Autumn menus run from September through November, making this a seasonal experience with a limited window. Which autumn course would you want to try first? . . . . . . . #sgfood #sgfoodie #sgfoodies #sgfoodblogger #singaporefood #singaporefoodie #singaporeeats #sgdining #telokayer #sgrestaurant #ikkoten #omakase #omakasesg #japanesefoodsg #kaiseki

For my recent trip to Singapore, I chose the Mercure Singapore Bugis (Waterloo Street) as my home base. The biggest draw was definitely the location—it's incredibly convenient. Both Bugis and Bencoolen MRT stations are just a few minutes away on foot, making it a breeze to head over to Orchard Road for some shopping or to Marina Bay for a night out. Plus, there are hawker centers and two major malls right nearby, so grabbing authentic local eats or picking up souvenirs is totally hassle-free. The hotel is centrally located at 78 Waterloo Street. It’s nestled between two MRT stations in a safe neighborhood that's perfect for a late-night stroll. You can easily walk to the National Museum of Singapore and Fort Canning Park. If you're not in the mood for a long walk, popular breakfast spots like Ya Kun Kaya Toast and Killiney Kopitiam are just around the corner, offering everything from classic Singaporean breakfasts to local fusion dishes. Getting to the heart of the matter—while the room isn’t the largest, the design is compact and modern. It’s genuinely clean and cozy, and the floor-to-ceiling windows let in plenty of morning sunlight, which is perfect for someone like me who loves a city view to start the day. The amenities are surprisingly complete; they’ve got all sorts of charging ports (Type-C and USB included) and even a filtered water system, so you don't have to keep buying bottled water. A real standout feature is the in-room computer equipped with YouTube and Netflix—you’ll never be bored even if you decide to stay in for the night. On the second floor, there’s a gym and a swimming pool, ideal for a morning workout or a relaxing evening dip. The self-service check-in and check-out process is quick and easy, and most of the front desk staff are bilingual in Mandarin and English, making communication effortless. Any issues are resolved almost instantly. Overall, this hotel offers great value for money. I’d recommend it to both leisure and business travelers, especially those who value transit convenience and comfort. Staying in this area means you can get anywhere within 15 minutes!

Singapore is an incredible city, but its fast pace can easily get a bit intense for a Brussels native like me who loves quiet afternoons on a terrace. Luckily, I found a lovely spot to unwind: the Furama RiverFront. What charmed me the moment I arrived was the spacious lobby with its massive six-meter waterfall. I grabbed a seat at the Waterfall Lounge to read for a while, lulled by the soothing sound of the cascading water and surrounded by tropical palm trees. It was a beautiful, timeless moment. My room was incredibly spacious and flooded with gorgeous natural light—a must-have for me. The view of the river and the skyline from the windows was simply stunning. Plus, the location is perfect for those who love to walk: the Havelock MRT station is just a short five-minute stroll away. In the evenings, I loved wandering along the riverbanks down to Clarke Quay or extending my walk to the vibrant, bustling streets of Chinatown. One morning, while passing by the outdoor pool, I stopped to watch two little dogs playing happily near the hot tub. It’s these little slices of everyday life that give a place such a warm, welcoming vibe. On the practical side, the hotel offers excellent value for money by Singapore standards. A quick tip if you're planning a stay: opt for a room on the higher floors for the best views, as some of the property's older sections could use a little updating. But all in all, it was a wonderful, relaxing getaway.

The Edition Singapore When you come to Singapore, don’t just focus on Marina Bay Sands. This hidden gem in the Orchard Road shopping district, The Edition, is a secret favorite among savvy travelers. 📍Perfect Location The hotel is right on Orchard Boulevard, just a 5-minute walk to ION Orchard shopping mall, and downstairs is Singapore’s busiest shopping street. It’s a 15-minute taxi ride to Gardens by the Bay, about 25 minutes to Changi Airport, and a 10-minute walk to Orchard MRT station. Everything you need for dining, shopping, and entertainment is nearby, including Ya Kun Kaya Toast and Jumbo Seafood. 🛏️How to Choose Your Room The standard rooms start at 38 square meters, which is quite spacious for Singapore. I recommend upgrading to a deluxe room with floor-to-ceiling windows facing the city skyline—watching the night view is very soothing. If your budget allows, go for a suite with separate living and bedroom areas and a bathroom with a standalone bathtub, perfect for photos. Be sure to book early on Trip.com, as weekends often sell out. 💰Money-Saving Tips Avoid the F1 season and Christmas-New Year period to save about a third on room rates. Tuesdays and Wednesdays usually offer the best prices, and discounts often apply for stays longer than two nights. The hotel’s pool and gym are free for guests, so no extra charges there. ✨Why It’s Worth Staying Here The design is top-notch. Designed by architect Moshe Safdie, the exterior looks like a vertical garden. The lobby’s high ceilings and green walls create a strong vacation vibe as soon as you enter. The rooms feature The Edition’s signature natural wood and linen style—no flashy gimmicks, just understated luxury that quietly says, “I’m expensive but I don’t brag.” The rooftop pool is a hidden gem. The infinity pool faces the cityscape, and soaking there at dusk while watching Orchard Road’s neon lights come on is much more relaxing than the crowded Marina Bay Sands SkyPark. There’s a bar by the pool where you can order a Singapore Sling—this is the right way to enjoy a holiday. Don’t sleep in on breakfast. The semi-buffet style includes must-try Eggs Benedict and Laksa, freshly made and served hot, far better than cold buffet counters. The restaurant has great natural light, and sitting by the window in the morning to eat slowly is truly healing. The service details are very touching. Handmade chocolates are given at check-in, turndown service arranges slippers neatly and adjusts curtains to just the right light level—these small touches are well done. The front desk offers Chinese service, so no worries if your English isn’t strong. This hotel isn’t as flashy as Marina Bay Sands, but those who have stayed here know how good it is. It’s perfect for travelers who want a quiet, quality holiday experience. Next time you visit Singapore, give it a chance.

Prime hotel in the heart of Singapore city center! After staying here, it’s officially on my must-stay list for Singapore and Malaysia trips|The Ritz-Carlton Millenia Singapore Having traveled to Singapore multiple times for business and leisure, I’ve experienced many overpriced and disappointing hotels in the city. This time, I booked The Ritz-Carlton Millenia Singapore and perfectly avoided the usual problems of city center hotels like noise, cramped rooms, and poor views. From check-in to check-out, everything exceeded my expectations. Whether for short sightseeing trips or business travel, this hotel fits the bill perfectly. 🛏️ Room Experience|Unbeatable Marina Bay Views in the Bustling City I booked a Marina Bay view room, which is especially rare in the prime and expensive core area of Singapore. The entire wall is a floor-to-ceiling glass window facing Marina Bay Sands and the ArtScience Museum. During the day, you see the staggered skyscrapers and winding canals; at dusk, the city lights come on one by one. You can enjoy the iconic city night view right from your bed. The room’s interior is elegantly luxurious, with leather furnishings and soft warm lighting. The brand-customized bedding is moderately firm and soft, instantly relieving fatigue after a long flight. The bathroom has a dry and wet separation with a full set of custom toiletries made from high-quality materials, showcasing luxury in every detail. The hotel’s soundproofing is excellent; despite being next to a busy main road in the city center, closing the door almost completely blocks out traffic and street noise, ensuring a peaceful sleep. During leisure time, you can visit the rooftop open-air pool and soak while enjoying panoramic views of Marina Bay. The 24-hour gym is fully equipped with imported professional machines, and the floor-to-ceiling windows let you work out with a view. 🍽️ Diverse Dining Experience|Taste International Flavors Without Leaving the Hotel The hotel houses several themed restaurants, offering a wide range of dining options for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, so you don’t have to go out searching for food. The buffet breakfast includes local Southeast Asian snacks, Chinese dim sum, Western baked goods, and fresh sashimi. The laksa and Hainanese chicken rice are freshly made and authentic, and the freshly brewed coffee is rich in aroma. The main restaurant specializes in exquisite Western cuisine with carefully selected ingredients; the wagyu steak and imported seafood are cooked to perfection. In the afternoon, you can book the elegant lobby afternoon tea, featuring a variety of sweet and savory snacks paired with specialty teas, with window seats overlooking the cityscape, creating a relaxing atmosphere. At night, the rooftop bar is a hidden gem, offering a variety of original cocktails and bar snacks. Enjoy a drink accompanied by the dazzling Marina Bay night view, and the ambiance is instantly elevated. 📍 Location & Transportation Guide|Explore All of Singapore Efficiently and Worry-Free The hotel is located in the Marina Bay area of Singapore’s city center, truly at the heart of the city. It’s just a few minutes’ walk to Gardens by the Bay and Merlion Park, so you can check off Singapore’s iconic landmarks without long travel. It’s close to multiple MRT stations, making it very convenient to reach Orchard Road shopping district and Chinatown. For those driving, there is a dedicated underground parking lot. A short taxi ride to Sentosa Island takes very little time. Whether you’re traveling independently for sightseeing and dining or on business heading to nearby office buildings and convention centers, the location saves you a lot of travel time. 💡 Practical Tips for Staying|Maximize Your Stay’s Value When checking in, politely ask the front desk if there are any available upgrades to a better view room; you might get a free upgrade if rooms are available. Guests staying in executive rooms enjoy full access to the executive lounge all day, with complimentary light breakfast, afternoon tea, and evening snacks and drinks. If traveling with children, you can request in advance; the hotel provides free children’s toiletries, baby cots, and other amenities, with thoughtful and attentive service in every detail.

1-for-1 Hong Kong-inspired buffet with Boston lobster, snow crab and whole roasted suckling pig 🦞🐷 Canton Street Kitchen at Plate, Carlton City Hotel Singapore brings together Cantonese classics and a generous Seafood on Ice spread for a weekend dinner built around familiar Hong Kong flavours.

🌞 Singapore – Malacca The weather was great these two days, and the views along the way were nice. I got to see the sunrise, sunset, and even the starry sky (though it wasn’t super stunning because of the thick clouds 🌥️). Normally I get motion sickness quite easily, but this time the sea was calm, so I felt fine the whole trip! 🙌 🎭 What I Did I didn’t end up trying the rock climbing wall, ropes course, or water slides. The boarding process drained all my energy — I had to stand in line for over an hour and then sit waiting for another hour 🥲. In Malacca, we had to wait about an hour for the tender boat back to the ship. Exhausting! So most of the time onboard was just eating and relaxing in the room 😴. I watched both shows: Voyage of a Lover’s Dream (I think that’s what it was called?) — a mix of magic, acrobatics, and singing/dancing. It was really good! The female performers were gorgeous and super cool 💃, and there were plenty of buff guys showing off their muscles 👀. Fabulous Chan — very interactive, high-energy atmosphere. Multilingual songs, but honestly pretty obvious lip-syncing 😂. Some of the interactive moments might not be suitable for kids 🧒. 🍽️ What I Ate We had breakfast and dinner at the Lido buffet. The food wasn’t as bad (or as amazing) as some online reviews claim — just decent overall. There was always something we could eat. One meal had braised noodles that we really liked — totally something we’d eat regularly if it was near home. #gentingdream #singaporecruise #travel #cruiselife #seaview #cruise #malacca

Wow — the Starbucks at Chinatown is on another level. Easily one of the prettiest outlets I’ve seen in Singapore. I absolutely love how well they preserved the heritage shophouse vibe here. This outlet also has exclusive, limited-edition drinks. A friend tried one and felt it might not suit his taste buds — maybe it’s something foreigners would appreciate more than locals. I didn’t try it myself, but that's s the Yuan Yang Coffee Frappe Hojicha, I'm taking about. . #starbucks #chinatown #singaporestarbucks #sgstarbucks #sgshophouse Wow — the Starbucks at Chinatown is on another level.

You don’t always need to pay for an expensive observation deck to get an amazing Singapore sunset. One of my favourite ways to watch the city turn on its evening lights is CÉ LA VI Singapore, on Level 57 of Marina Bay Sands Tower 3. For S$38 per person, you get a premium drink — cocktail, wine, beer or a non-alcoholic option — and, most importantly, a proper place to sit and enjoy the view. You’re looking straight across Marina Bay, with the famous infinity pool and Singapore skyline in front of you. The atmosphere is much more relaxed than a typical observation deck. Come around 5:30–6:00 PM, grab a seat, watch the sunset, then stay as the city lights come on. There’s also music and a DJ later in the evening, so you can easily turn sunset into a few hours out. 📍 CÉ LA VI Singapore, Marina Bay Sands Tower 3 💰 S$38 including one premium drink 🌅 Best time: around 5:30–6:00 PM 🎧 DJ from around 7:30 PM For me, this is one of those Singapore experiences where the price actually makes sense. Would you pay S$38 for this view + a drink? #singapore #singaporetravel #marinabaysands #celavi #singaporesunset #singaporenightlife #singaporetips #travelsingapore #marinabay #singaporeviews #singaporebars #singapore2026 #travelasia #tripmoments #harborviews

First time staying at The RuMA Hotel , and I’m already loving this property. And congratulations again to the team on retaining One MICHELIN Key for the second consecutive year. · What I enjoyed most was discovering the little stories behind the hotel. RuMa comes from rumah, the Malay word for “home”, and you can really see that idea carried through the design. From the Bird Cage at the entrance, inspired by the canary cages once used in KL’s tin mines, to the grand staircase and Bernard Chandran’s striking golden kebaya sculpture, there’s so much character throughout the property. · The location is another plus. Being right in Kuala Lumpur’s Golden Triangle, with KLCC and Pavilion nearby, made exploring the city really convenient. · There was some time to enjoy the hotel’s facilities too, from the 25 metre infinity pool and 24 hour gym to UR SPA. And of course, I spent quite a bit of time eating and drinking my way around the property. · My timing worked out perfectly with @guum.sg dinner collaboration at @atas.kl , where @chef_louishan brings his modern Korean steakhouse to The RuMa until November. Over at SEVEN Lobby Bar, a gin-focused cocktail bar with more than 77 types of gin, I tried their three drink cocktail flight featuring local flavours like kaya and pandan. · Breakfast and lunch were both at ATAS, while afternoon tea at The LIBRARI featured their Chapters of RuMa afternoon tea, presented on a handcrafted congkak board, with each “chapter” bringing together savoury bites, sweets, scones and pralines. The following day, lunch at SANTAI by the infinity pool was a more relaxed affair, with the KL skyline right in front of us. · It was my first stay at The RuMa, and I can already see why The RuMa has such a following. As for the Deluxe King Suite I stayed in during this trip, I’ll leave that for the next post. #luxuryhotel #luxurytravel #luxurystay #hotelstay #hotelexperience #travelmalaysia #malaysiatravel #visitmalaysia #kualalumpur #visitkl #explorekl #therumahotel

Baru landing di Singapura? The first stop wajib banget ke Changi Airport’s iconic waterfall, aka the Rain Vortex, which is literally jaw-dropping 🤩. Bikin feed kamu langsung naik level! Next up, jangan lewatkan Merlion Park and snap pic bareng patung singa legendaris itu! Spot ini tuh udah jadi kult banget sebagai simbol Singapura. Dari situ, kamu bisa chill sambil ngepoin Marina Bay Sands—skyline-nya bener-bener aesthetic parah 🏙️. And of course, Gardens by the Bay! Biar vibes Singapura makin kerasa, wajib explore Supertree Grove yang sekeren itu dan jangan lupa cek Flower Dome. Pas sunset, tempat ini super dreamy! Gardens by the Bay buka tiap hari, jam 5 pagi–2 dini hari (18 Marina Gardens Dr, Singapore 018953). Seharian muter-muter Singapura, rasanya puas banget deh. Sediain stamina ekstra biar bisa explore banyak spot tanpa skip! Jangan lupa, semua tiket masuk dan rekomendasi destinasi bisa kamu cari di trip.com, ya. #singaporetrip

#hellochristmas Just checked out from a staycay at The Standard Singapore and I’m already plotting my return. I booked a One Bedroom Suite and the moment I walked in, I was blown away — the ceilings are insanely high, giving the whole space this airy, architectural drama you don’t usually get in hotels here. The room design feels playful but luxe: bold colors, great textures, and little details that make you smile. Plenty of space for my pet dog too — and yes, they’re genuinely pet-friendly, not “pet-tolerant.” My dog was living her best life lounging around like she owned the place. Service was attentive without being stiff, and the location is perfect for a quick city escape. Whether you’re cuddling up with a furry friend or just treating yourself, this hotel nails the vibe: fun, stylish, and effortlessly comfortable. Highly recommend — especially if you’re a sucker for great design and pet-friendly stays #petfriendlystays

Not your usual sushi-focused omakase. What I really enjoyed about Ikkoten is how much thought goes into seasonality, texture and balance. The chef loves playing with contrasts, creamy against crisp, richer flavours paired with something lighter and refreshing, so nothing feels too heavy. Their 15-course Hana menu is inspired by Autumn, with seasonal ingredients woven throughout the experience. Some of my favourites were the signature Chilean seabass with nori butter and A5 Wagyu sukiyaki with foie gras. And as the meal moves into the sushi courses and finally dessert, everything just flows so naturally. Every course brings something different, yet somehow it all comes together beautifully. 🍣🍂 📍 Ikkoten Omakase, Telok Ayer #ikkoten #ikkotenomakase #singaporeomakase #omakasesingapore

Address: St. Giles Southkey, Jalan Persiaran Southkey 1, Southkey, 80150 Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia Price: 💰💰 Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Conveniently nestled at Midvalley Southkey, St. Giles Southkey Hotel offers seamless access to a plethora of shopping arcades, entertainment hubs, and local attractions. Our check-in experience, however, left much to be desired. Upon our arrival at 1 pm, we promptly dropped off our luggage before heading out for lunch. Yet, when we returned at 3 pm to retrieve our room keys and belongings, we found ourselves queuing at the concierge for a frustrating 35 minutes. A more efficient check-in system could significantly enhance the guest experience. Despite this initial setback, the hotel did offer a redeemable welcome drink—a refreshing guava ice blend—at their rooftop bar. Complimentary Bandung drink and water were also available in the lobby, though finding seating amidst the hotel's popularity proved challenging. Entering our room, we were greeted by a spacious and luminous interior. The room boasted a cozy window lounge area, plush bedding, essential amenities including toiletries and an iron board, as well as a convenient refillable water jug (located in the corridor). While the majority of the room was pristine, one of the pillows emitted a sour odor, and we noticed slight staining on the bathroom floor. The hotel's expansive gym offered an array of equipment, while the pool, though slightly compact, afforded picturesque views of Johor. However, on our Sunday visit, we detected a faint odor emanating from the pool, possibly indicating infrequent cleaning. Breakfast surpassed our expectations, showcasing an impressive array of pastries and Malaysian delicacies, with the standout being their teh tarik. Despite the breakfast's excellence, securing a table proved challenging, especially around peak hours. This hotel excels in convenience and culinary offerings, our experience was marred by lengthy queues and cleanliness issues. Nonetheless, for those seeking proximity to shopping and entertainment options, this hotel remains a compelling choice. #familytrips2024

Checking off the second Design Property in Singapore and marking my first Bonvoy stay for the year ✅ Used 44k points to try this for one night and thought it was an only okay deal, most notably because there is limited elite benefits including having to pay for breakfast (gasp!) 😝 With no pre-arrival communication, I was pleasantly surprised to be accorded a 5-tier Heritage Suite from my booked base room, and getting it at 1pm ahead of the official check in time. The space was actually quite nice with its modern furnishing and pops of colors in a shophouse setting. I like the neat layout, the Dyson hairdryer, and the comfy bed BUT I cannot watch TV in bed leh. #priorities 🥶 Breakfast at Kee’s was a very moderated buffet spread with ala carte egg dishes made to order - just enough value for its $35++ price (for in-house guests if added to room versus walk in). Great Greek yoghurt too 🥛 Def wouldn’t stay here on cash but for a points stay - okay la now I can say I’ve stayed 🔮

If you think a short two-hour flight doesn't offer much in First Class… think again. The dining experience is the absolute highlight! 😂🍾 This was Singapore Airlines First Class on the Boeing 777-300ER. What sets it apart from standard flying is how perfectly everything is paced—it’s a relaxed "dine at your own pace" experience where you arrive before you know it. 🍾 Starting strong with Cristal 2015 The real showstopper was the Louis Roederer Cristal 2015 🥂. Serving champagne of this caliber on a short hop from Jakarta to Singapore is a moment where you realize… yeah, this is truly First Class 😂. Sipping chilled champagne in the privacy of your seat while taking in the views—the atmosphere is just unmatched. 🍜 The Main Course I chose the Cantonese Lobster Dumplings in Superior Chicken Soup. These lobster dumplings served in a clear chicken broth with Chinese greens and mushrooms are simple yet sophisticated, making them perfect for an evening flight 🍜. The dumplings were tender and generously filled, while the broth was light and satisfying. With a variety of side dishes, including salad, appetizers, and dessert, the meal felt like a proper light dinner rather than typical airline catering. 🥖 Bread & Butter are a must Another highlight was the Assorted Bread Rolls & Gourmet Breads served with butter or flavored olive oil. Warm bread on a plane is a total game-changer lol. Paired with champagne, it’s a simple yet incredibly enjoyable combination. 🍮 A Sweet Ending For dessert, the menu featured a Nutty Caramel Tart. It’s a rich, nutty, and sweet treat—the perfect way to round off the savory courses. If you’re a fan of nutty desserts, you’ll love this. ☕ Afterward, there’s a selection of Coffee & Tea so you can sip on something warm while finishing your movie or music. 🥂 Final Thoughts on Dining For a flight that lasts only two hours, Singapore Airlines ensures the meal feels like anything but "airplane food." From the Cristal 2015 to the Lobster Dumplings and every course in between, everything is sequenced for a comfortable and refined experience. Honestly, even if you don't focus on the seat itself, the fine dining and the Cristal on board make this short flight a truly memorable experience. 🍾✈️

As soon as you step out of the City Hall MRT station, you're immediately surrounded by countless skyscrapers. The modern vibe is incredibly strong, making you feel like you've entered the very heart of Singapore. Strolling along the riverside, with the breeze gently blowing and the city’s skyline reflected on the water, you’ll find your pace naturally slowing down. Follow the riverside path, and you’ll eventually reach Singapore’s most iconic landmark—the Merlion. Along the way, you’ll see many locals jogging or walking, giving the city a lively yet relaxed atmosphere. It’s hard not to think: this is a city that truly knows how to live. Whether you’re taking a walk during the day or in the evening, Singapore’s city center is perfect for exploring on foot.

Autumn has arrived at Ikkoten, and the new seasonal omakase brings some of the richest flavours of the year to its intimate counter in Telok Ayer. The 15-course Hana experience moves beyond a sushi-focused omakase, reflecting Ikkoten’s kaiseki influence through a progression of raw and cooked courses. Autumn ingredients appear throughout, from cold matsutake chawanmushi to kabocha ebi shinjo with edamame purée and uni. The signature Chilean seabass with nori butter remains a memorable part of the meal, while A5 wagyu sukiyaki with foie gras, seasonal vegetables and shishito sauce brings a deeper richness before the sushi courses begin. Mongo ika, aka ebi, chutoro and buri lead into the signature negitoro uni monaka, combining creamy tuna and uni with a crisp shell. A light yuzu clear dashi resets the palate before an autumn chestnut Mont Blanc closes the experience. With only 12 seats around the counter, the setting keeps the focus on each course and its preparation. Ikkoten’s Autumn menus run from September through November, making this a seasonal experience with a limited window. Which autumn course would you want to try first? . . . . . . . #sgfood #sgfoodie #sgfoodies #sgfoodblogger #singaporefood #singaporefoodie #singaporeeats #sgdining #telokayer #sgrestaurant #ikkoten #omakase #omakasesg #japanesefoodsg #kaiseki

For my recent trip to Singapore, I chose the Mercure Singapore Bugis (Waterloo Street) as my home base. The biggest draw was definitely the location—it's incredibly convenient. Both Bugis and Bencoolen MRT stations are just a few minutes away on foot, making it a breeze to head over to Orchard Road for some shopping or to Marina Bay for a night out. Plus, there are hawker centers and two major malls right nearby, so grabbing authentic local eats or picking up souvenirs is totally hassle-free. The hotel is centrally located at 78 Waterloo Street. It’s nestled between two MRT stations in a safe neighborhood that's perfect for a late-night stroll. You can easily walk to the National Museum of Singapore and Fort Canning Park. If you're not in the mood for a long walk, popular breakfast spots like Ya Kun Kaya Toast and Killiney Kopitiam are just around the corner, offering everything from classic Singaporean breakfasts to local fusion dishes. Getting to the heart of the matter—while the room isn’t the largest, the design is compact and modern. It’s genuinely clean and cozy, and the floor-to-ceiling windows let in plenty of morning sunlight, which is perfect for someone like me who loves a city view to start the day. The amenities are surprisingly complete; they’ve got all sorts of charging ports (Type-C and USB included) and even a filtered water system, so you don't have to keep buying bottled water. A real standout feature is the in-room computer equipped with YouTube and Netflix—you’ll never be bored even if you decide to stay in for the night. On the second floor, there’s a gym and a swimming pool, ideal for a morning workout or a relaxing evening dip. The self-service check-in and check-out process is quick and easy, and most of the front desk staff are bilingual in Mandarin and English, making communication effortless. Any issues are resolved almost instantly. Overall, this hotel offers great value for money.

Singapore is an incredible city, but its fast pace can easily get a bit intense for a Brussels native like me who loves quiet afternoons on a terrace. Luckily, I found a lovely spot to unwind: the Furama RiverFront. What charmed me the moment I arrived was the spacious lobby with its massive six-meter waterfall. I grabbed a seat at the Waterfall Lounge to read for a while, lulled by the soothing sound of the cascading water and surrounded by tropical palm trees. It was a beautiful, timeless moment. My room was incredibly spacious and flooded with gorgeous natural light—a must-have for me. The view of the river and the skyline from the windows was simply stunning. Plus, the location is perfect for those who love to walk: the Havelock MRT station is just a short five-minute stroll away. In the evenings, I loved wandering along the riverbanks down to Clarke Quay or extending my walk to the vibrant, bustling streets of Chinatown. One morning, while passing by the outdoor pool, I stopped to watch two little dogs playing happily near the hot tub. It’s these little slices of everyday life that give a place such a warm, welcoming vibe. On the practical side, the hotel offers excellent value for money by Singapore standards. A quick tip if you're planning a stay: opt for a room on the higher floors for the best views, as some of the property's older sections could use a little updating. But all in all, it was a wonderful, relaxing getaway.

Singapore is renowned for its impeccable safety, clean streets, and futuristic architecture. · 📍 Must-Visit Spots: · Gardens by the Bay: The massive Supertrees and Cloud Forest Dome are iconic landmarks of Singapore. Don't miss the nighttime light show (Garden Rhapsody)! 🌲💡 · Marina Bay Sands: Even if you're not staying there, enjoy the fountain show in the front yard or visit the observation deck. 🏨🌊 · Sentosa Island: The perfect place for activities like Universal Studios and the Luge. 🎢🏖️ · 🍴 Culinary Highlights: · Chili Crab: A must-try dish in Singapore! The key is to dip the 'mantou' into the sauce. 🦀🌶️ · Bak Kut Teh: A nourishing dish similar to Korean galbitang. Song Fa Bak Kut Teh is the most famous. · 💡 Pro Tip: The public transport system (MRT) is highly efficient, so use a travel card or contactless card for convenient travel.

Discovered an amazing hidden gem hotel in Bangkok, featuring a stunning rooftop pool with breathtaking views and a warm, welcoming experience.

Right across the street, there are fantastic massage shops Nungning and Rose—perfect for a break after shopping! 🏠 Room experience 🥰🥰🥰

The Edition Singapore When you come to Singapore, don’t just focus on Marina Bay Sands. This hidden gem in the Orchard Road shopping district, The Edition, is a secret favorite among savvy travelers. 📍Perfect Location The hotel is right on Orchard Boulevard, just a 5-minute walk to ION Orchard shopping mall, and downstairs is Singapore’s busiest shopping street. It’s a 15-minute taxi ride to Gardens by the Bay, about 25 minutes to Changi Airport, and a 10-minute walk to Orchard MRT station. Everything you need for dining, shopping, and entertainment is nearby, including Ya Kun Kaya Toast and Jumbo Seafood. 🛏️How to Choose Your Room The standard rooms start at 38 square meters, which is quite spacious for Singapore. I recommend upgrading to a deluxe room with floor-to-ceiling windows facing the city skyline—watching the night view is very soothing. If your budget allows, go for a suite with separate living and bedroom areas and a bathroom with a standalone bathtub, perfect for photos. Be sure to book early on Trip.com, as weekends often sell out. 💰Money-Saving Tips Avoid the F1 season and Christmas-New Year period to save about a third on room rates. Tuesdays and Wednesdays usually offer the best prices, and discounts often apply for stays longer than two nights. The hotel’s pool and gym are free for guests, so no extra charges there. ✨Why It’s Worth Staying Here The design is top-notch. Designed by architect Moshe Safdie, the exterior looks like a vertical garden. The lobby’s high ceilings and green walls create a strong vacation vibe as soon as you enter. The rooms feature The Edition’s signature natural wood and linen style—no flashy gimmicks, just understated luxury that quietly says, “I’m expensive but I don’t brag.” The rooftop pool is a hidden gem. The infinity pool faces the cityscape, and soaking there at dusk while watching Orchard Road’s neon lights come on is much more relaxing than the crowded Marina Bay Sands SkyPark. There’s a bar by the pool where you can order a Singapore Sling—this is the right way to enjoy a holiday. Don’t sleep in on breakfast. The semi-buffet style includes must-try Eggs Benedict and Laksa, freshly made and served hot, far better than cold buffet counters. The restaurant has great natural light, and sitting by the window in the morning to eat slowly is truly healing. The service details are very touching. Handmade chocolates are given at check-in, turndown service arranges slippers neatly and adjusts curtains to just the right light level—these small touches are well done. The front desk offers Chinese service, so no worries if your English isn’t strong. This hotel isn’t as flashy as Marina Bay Sands, but those who have stayed here know how good it is. It’s perfect for travelers who want a quiet, quality holiday experience. Next time you visit Singapore, give it a chance.

Prime hotel in the heart of Singapore city center! After staying here, it’s officially on my must-stay list for Singapore and Malaysia trips|The Ritz-Carlton Millenia Singapore Having traveled to Singapore multiple times for business and leisure, I’ve experienced many overpriced and disappointing hotels in the city. This time, I booked The Ritz-Carlton Millenia Singapore and perfectly avoided the usual problems of city center hotels like noise, cramped rooms, and poor views. From check-in to check-out, everything exceeded my expectations. Whether for short sightseeing trips or business travel, this hotel fits the bill perfectly. 🛏️ Room Experience|Unbeatable Marina Bay Views in the Bustling City I booked a Marina Bay view room, which is especially rare in the prime and expensive core area of Singapore. The entire wall is a floor-to-ceiling glass window facing Marina Bay Sands and the ArtScience Museum. During the day, you see the staggered skyscrapers and winding canals; at dusk, the city lights come on one by one. You can enjoy the iconic city night view right from your bed. The room’s interior is elegantly luxurious, with leather furnishings and soft warm lighting. The brand-customized bedding is moderately firm and soft, instantly relieving fatigue after a long flight. The bathroom has a dry and wet separation with a full set of custom toiletries made from high-quality materials, showcasing luxury in every detail. The hotel’s soundproofing is excellent; despite being next to a busy main road in the city center, closing the door almost completely blocks out traffic and street noise, ensuring a peaceful sleep. During leisure time, you can visit the rooftop open-air pool and soak while enjoying panoramic views of Marina Bay. The 24-hour gym is fully equipped with imported professional machines, and the floor-to-ceiling windows let you work out with a view. 🍽️ Diverse Dining Experience|Taste International Flavors Without Leaving the Hotel The hotel houses several themed restaurants, offering a wide range of dining options for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, so you don’t have to go out searching for food. The buffet breakfast includes local Southeast Asian snacks, Chinese dim sum, Western baked goods, and fresh sashimi. The laksa and Hainanese chicken rice are freshly made and authentic, and the freshly brewed coffee is rich in aroma. The main restaurant specializes in exquisite Western cuisine with carefully selected ingredients; the wagyu steak and imported seafood are cooked to perfection. In the afternoon, you can book the elegant lobby afternoon tea, featuring a variety of sweet and savory snacks paired with specialty teas, with window seats overlooking the cityscape, creating a relaxing atmosphere. At night, the rooftop bar is a hidden gem, offering a variety of original cocktails and bar snacks. Enjoy a drink accompanied by the dazzling Marina Bay night view, and the ambiance is instantly elevated. 📍 Location & Transportation Guide|Explore All of Singapore Efficiently and Worry-Free The hotel is located in the Marina Bay area of Singapore’s city center, truly at the heart of the city. It’s just a few minutes’ walk to Gardens by the Bay and Merlion Park, so you can check off Singapore’s iconic landmarks without long travel. It’s close to multiple MRT stations, making it very convenient to reach Orchard Road shopping district and Chinatown. For those driving, there is a dedicated underground parking lot. A short taxi ride to Sentosa Island takes very little time. Whether you’re traveling independently for sightseeing and dining or on business heading to nearby office buildings and convention centers, the location saves you a lot of travel time. 💡 Practical Tips for Staying|Maximize Your Stay’s Value When checking in, politely ask the front desk if there are any available upgrades to a better view room; you might get a free upgrade if rooms are available. Guests staying in executive rooms enjoy full access to the executive lounge all day, with complimentary light breakfast, afternoon tea, and evening snacks and drinks. If traveling with children, you can request in advance; the hotel provides free children’s toiletries, baby cots, and other amenities, with thoughtful and attentive service in every detail.

1-for-1 Hong Kong-inspired buffet with Boston lobster, snow crab and whole roasted suckling pig 🦞🐷 Canton Street Kitchen at Plate, Carlton City Hotel Singapore brings together Cantonese classics and a generous Seafood on Ice spread for a weekend dinner built around familiar Hong Kong flavours. The centrepiece is the Whole Roasted Suckling Pig, with crisp skin served with cucumber, scallions, hoisin sauce and soft mantou. The Typhoon Shelter Prawns are another highlight, alongside Pork Belly Char Siu and Half-Shell Scallops with Garlic Vermicelli. Seafood on Ice adds Boston lobster, snow crab legs and chilled prawns, with salmon and tuna sashimi rounding out the spread. At $138++ per adult, the 1-for-1 offer is available with eligible Citibank, DBS/POSB, Maybank, OCBC and Standard Chartered cards, effectively $69++ per adult before service charge and GST when dining in pairs.

🌞 Singapore – Malacca The weather was great these two days, and the views along the way were nice. I got to see the sunrise, sunset, and even the starry sky (though it wasn’t super stunning because of the thick clouds 🌥️). Normally I get motion sickness quite easily, but this time the sea was calm, so I felt fine the whole trip! 🙌 🎭 What I Did I didn’t end up trying the rock climbing wall, ropes course, or water slides. The boarding process drained all my energy — I had to stand in line for over an hour and then sit waiting for another hour 🥲. In Malacca, we had to wait about an hour for the tender boat back to the ship. Exhausting! So most of the time onboard was just eating and relaxing in the room 😴. I watched both shows: Voyage of a Lover’s Dream (I think that’s what it was called?) — a mix of magic, acrobatics, and singing/dancing. It was really good! The female performers were gorgeous and super cool 💃, and there were plenty of buff guys showing off their muscles 👀. Fabulous Chan — very interactive, high-energy atmosphere. Multilingual songs, but honestly pretty obvious lip-syncing 😂. Some of the interactive moments might not be suitable for kids 🧒. 🍽️ What I Ate We had breakfast and dinner at the Lido buffet. The food wasn’t as bad (or as amazing) as some online reviews claim — just decent overall. There was always something we could eat. One meal had braised noodles that we really liked — totally something we’d eat regularly if it was near home. #gentingdream #singaporecruise #travel #cruiselife #seaview #cruise #malacca

Wow — the Starbucks at Chinatown is on another level. Easily one of the prettiest outlets I’ve seen in Singapore. I absolutely love how well they preserved the heritage shophouse vibe here. This outlet also has exclusive, limited-edition drinks. A friend tried one and felt it might not suit his taste buds — maybe it’s something foreigners would appreciate more than locals. I didn’t try it myself, but that's s the Yuan Yang Coffee Frappe Hojicha, I'm taking about. . #starbucks #chinatown #singaporestarbucks #sgstarbucks #sgshophouse Wow — the Starbucks at Chinatown is on another level.

You don’t always need to pay for an expensive observation deck to get an amazing Singapore sunset. One of my favourite ways to watch the city turn on its evening lights is CÉ LA VI Singapore, on Level 57 of Marina Bay Sands Tower 3. For S$38 per person, you get a premium drink — cocktail, wine, beer or a non-alcoholic option — and, most importantly, a proper place to sit and enjoy the view. You’re looking straight across Marina Bay, with the famous infinity pool and Singapore skyline in front of you. The atmosphere is much more relaxed than a typical observation deck. Come around 5:30–6:00 PM, grab a seat, watch the sunset, then stay as the city lights come on. There’s also music and a DJ later in the evening, so you can easily turn sunset into a few hours out. 📍 CÉ LA VI Singapore, Marina Bay Sands Tower 3 💰 S$38 including one premium drink 🌅 Best time: around 5:30–6:00 PM 🎧 DJ from around 7:30 PM For me, this is one of those Singapore experiences where the price actually makes sense. Would you pay S$38 for this view + a drink? #singapore #singaporetravel #marinabaysands #celavi #singaporesunset #singaporenightlife #singaporetips #travelsingapore #marinabay #singaporeviews #singaporebars #singapore2026 #travelasia #tripmoments #harborviews

First time staying at The RuMA Hotel , and I’m already loving this property. And congratulations again to the team on retaining One MICHELIN Key for the second consecutive year. · What I enjoyed most was discovering the little stories behind the hotel. RuMa comes from rumah, the Malay word for “home”, and you can really see that idea carried through the design. From the Bird Cage at the entrance, inspired by the canary cages once used in KL’s tin mines, to the grand staircase and Bernard Chandran’s striking golden kebaya sculpture, there’s so much character throughout the property. · The location is another plus. Being right in Kuala Lumpur’s Golden Triangle, with KLCC and Pavilion nearby, made exploring the city really convenient. · There was some time to enjoy the hotel’s facilities too, from the 25 metre infinity pool and 24 hour gym to UR SPA. And of course, I spent quite a bit of time eating and drinking my way around the property. · My timing worked out perfectly with @guum.sg dinner collaboration at @atas.kl , where @chef_louishan brings his modern Korean steakhouse to The RuMa until November. Over at SEVEN Lobby Bar, a gin-focused cocktail bar with more than 77 types of gin, I tried their three drink cocktail flight featuring local flavours like kaya and pandan. · Breakfast and lunch were both at ATAS, while afternoon tea at The LIBRARI featured their Chapters of RuMa afternoon tea, presented on a handcrafted congkak board, with each “chapter” bringing together savoury bites, sweets, scones and pralines. The following day, lunch at SANTAI by the infinity pool was a more relaxed affair, with the KL skyline right in front of us. · It was my first stay at The RuMa, and I can already see why The RuMa has such a following. As for the Deluxe King Suite I stayed in during this trip, I’ll leave that for the next post. #luxuryhotel #luxurytravel #luxurystay #hotelstay #hotelexperience #travelmalaysia #malaysiatravel #visitmalaysia #kualalumpur #visitkl #explorekl #therumahotel

Baru landing di Singapura? The first stop wajib banget ke Changi Airport’s iconic waterfall, aka the Rain Vortex, which is literally jaw-dropping 🤩. Bikin feed kamu langsung naik level! Next up, jangan lewatkan Merlion Park and snap pic bareng patung singa legendaris itu! Spot ini tuh udah jadi kult banget sebagai simbol Singapura. Dari situ, kamu bisa chill sambil ngepoin Marina Bay Sands—skyline-nya bener-bener aesthetic parah 🏙️. And of course, Gardens by the Bay! Biar vibes Singapura makin kerasa, wajib explore Supertree Grove yang sekeren itu dan jangan lupa cek Flower Dome. Pas sunset, tempat ini super dreamy! Gardens by the Bay buka tiap hari, jam 5 pagi–2 dini hari (18 Marina Gardens Dr, Singapore 018953). Seharian muter-muter Singapura, rasanya puas banget deh. Sediain stamina ekstra biar bisa explore banyak spot tanpa skip! Jangan lupa, semua tiket masuk dan rekomendasi destinasi bisa kamu cari di trip.com, ya. #singaporetrip

#hellochristmas Just checked out from a staycay at The Standard Singapore and I’m already plotting my return. I booked a One Bedroom Suite and the moment I walked in, I was blown away — the ceilings are insanely high, giving the whole space this airy, architectural drama you don’t usually get in hotels here. The room design feels playful but luxe: bold colors, great textures, and little details that make you smile. Plenty of space for my pet dog too — and yes, they’re genuinely pet-friendly, not “pet-tolerant.” My dog was living her best life lounging around like she owned the place. Service was attentive without being stiff, and the location is perfect for a quick city escape. Whether you’re cuddling up with a furry friend or just treating yourself, this hotel nails the vibe: fun, stylish, and effortlessly comfortable. Highly recommend — especially if you’re a sucker for great design and pet-friendly stays #petfriendlystays

Not your usual sushi-focused omakase. What I really enjoyed about Ikkoten is how much thought goes into seasonality, texture and balance. The chef loves playing with contrasts, creamy against crisp, richer flavours paired with something lighter and refreshing, so nothing feels too heavy. Their 15-course Hana menu is inspired by Autumn, with seasonal ingredients woven throughout the experience. Some of my favourites were the signature Chilean seabass with nori butter and A5 Wagyu sukiyaki with foie gras. And as the meal moves into the sushi courses and finally dessert, everything just flows so naturally. Every course brings something different, yet somehow it all comes together beautifully. 🍣🍂 📍 Ikkoten Omakase, Telok Ayer #ikkoten #ikkotenomakase #singaporeomakase #omakasesingapore

Address: St. Giles Southkey, Jalan Persiaran Southkey 1, Southkey, 80150 Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia Price: 💰💰 Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Conveniently nestled at Midvalley Southkey, St. Giles Southkey Hotel offers seamless access to a plethora of shopping arcades, entertainment hubs, and local attractions. Our check-in experience, however, left much to be desired. Upon our arrival at 1 pm, we promptly dropped off our luggage before heading out for lunch. Yet, when we returned at 3 pm to retrieve our room keys and belongings, we found ourselves queuing at the concierge for a frustrating 35 minutes. A more efficient check-in system could significantly enhance the guest experience. Despite this initial setback, the hotel did offer a redeemable welcome drink—a refreshing guava ice blend—at their rooftop bar. Complimentary Bandung drink and water were also available in the lobby, though finding seating amidst the hotel's popularity proved challenging. Entering our room, we were greeted by a spacious and luminous interior. The room boasted a cozy window lounge area, plush bedding, essential amenities including toiletries and an iron board, as well as a convenient refillable water jug (located in the corridor). While the majority of the room was pristine, one of the pillows emitted a sour odor, and we noticed slight staining on the bathroom floor. The hotel's expansive gym offered an array of equipment, while the pool, though slightly compact, afforded picturesque views of Johor. However, on our Sunday visit, we detected a faint odor emanating from the pool, possibly indicating infrequent cleaning. Breakfast surpassed our expectations, showcasing an impressive array of pastries and Malaysian delicacies, with the standout being their teh tarik. Despite the breakfast's excellence, securing a table proved challenging, especially around peak hours. This hotel excels in convenience and culinary offerings, our experience was marred by lengthy queues and cleanliness issues. Nonetheless, for those seeking proximity to shopping and entertainment options, this hotel remains a compelling choice. #familytrips2024

Checking off the second Design Property in Singapore and marking my first Bonvoy stay for the year ✅ Used 44k points to try this for one night and thought it was an only okay deal, most notably because there is limited elite benefits including having to pay for breakfast (gasp!) 😝 With no pre-arrival communication, I was pleasantly surprised to be accorded a 5-tier Heritage Suite from my booked base room, and getting it at 1pm ahead of the official check in time. The space was actually quite nice with its modern furnishing and pops of colors in a shophouse setting. I like the neat layout, the Dyson hairdryer, and the comfy bed BUT I cannot watch TV in bed leh. #priorities 🥶 Breakfast at Kee’s was a very moderated buffet spread with ala carte egg dishes made to order - just enough value for its $35++ price (for in-house guests if added to room versus walk in). Great Greek yoghurt too 🥛 Def wouldn’t stay here on cash but for a points stay - okay la now I can say I’ve stayed 🔮

If you think a short two-hour flight doesn't offer much in First Class… think again. The dining experience is the absolute highlight! 😂🍾 This was Singapore Airlines First Class on the Boeing 777-300ER. What sets it apart from standard flying is how perfectly everything is paced—it’s a relaxed "dine at your own pace" experience where you arrive before you know it. 🍾 Starting strong with Cristal 2015 The real showstopper was the Louis Roederer Cristal 2015 🥂. Serving champagne of this caliber on a short hop from Jakarta to Singapore is a moment where you realize… yeah, this is truly First Class 😂. Sipping chilled champagne in the privacy of your seat while taking in the views—the atmosphere is just unmatched. 🍜 The Main Course I chose the Cantonese Lobster Dumplings in Superior Chicken Soup. These lobster dumplings served in a clear chicken broth with Chinese greens and mushrooms are simple yet sophisticated, making them perfect for an evening flight 🍜. The dumplings were tender and generously filled, while the broth was light and satisfying. With a variety of side dishes, including salad, appetizers, and dessert, the meal felt like a proper light dinner rather than typical airline catering. 🥖 Bread & Butter are a must Another highlight was the Assorted Bread Rolls & Gourmet Breads served with butter or flavored olive oil. Warm bread on a plane is a total game-changer lol. Paired with champagne, it’s a simple yet incredibly enjoyable combination. 🍮 A Sweet Ending For dessert, the menu featured a Nutty Caramel Tart. It’s a rich, nutty, and sweet treat—the perfect way to round off the savory courses. If you’re a fan of nutty desserts, you’ll love this. ☕ Afterward, there’s a selection of Coffee & Tea so you can sip on something warm while finishing your movie or music. 🥂 Final Thoughts on Dining For a flight that lasts only two hours, Singapore Airlines ensures the meal feels like anything but "airplane food." From the Cristal 2015 to the Lobster Dumplings and every course in between, everything is sequenced for a comfortable and refined experience. Honestly, even if you don't focus on the seat itself, the fine dining and the Cristal on board make this short flight a truly memorable experience. 🍾✈️

As soon as you step out of the City Hall MRT station, you're immediately surrounded by countless skyscrapers. The modern vibe is incredibly strong, making you feel like you've entered the very heart of Singapore. Strolling along the riverside, with the breeze gently blowing and the city’s skyline reflected on the water, you’ll find your pace naturally slowing down. Follow the riverside path, and you’ll eventually reach Singapore’s most iconic landmark—the Merlion. Along the way, you’ll see many locals jogging or walking, giving the city a lively yet relaxed atmosphere. It’s hard not to think: this is a city that truly knows how to live. Whether you’re taking a walk during the day or in the evening, Singapore’s city center is perfect for exploring on foot.

Autumn has arrived at Ikkoten, and the new seasonal omakase brings some of the richest flavours of the year to its intimate counter in Telok Ayer. The 15-course Hana experience moves beyond a sushi-focused omakase, reflecting Ikkoten’s kaiseki influence through a progression of raw and cooked courses. Autumn ingredients appear throughout, from cold matsutake chawanmushi to kabocha ebi shinjo with edamame purée and uni. The signature Chilean seabass with nori butter remains a memorable part of the meal, while A5 wagyu sukiyaki with foie gras, seasonal vegetables and shishito sauce brings a deeper richness before the sushi courses begin. Mongo ika, aka ebi, chutoro and buri lead into the signature negitoro uni monaka, combining creamy tuna and uni with a crisp shell. A light yuzu clear dashi resets the palate before an autumn chestnut Mont Blanc closes the experience. With only 12 seats around the counter, the setting keeps the focus on each course and its preparation. Ikkoten’s Autumn menus run from September through November, making this a seasonal experience with a limited window. Which autumn course would you want to try first? . . . . . . . #sgfood #sgfoodie #sgfoodies #sgfoodblogger #singaporefood #singaporefoodie #singaporeeats #sgdining #telokayer #sgrestaurant #ikkoten #omakase #omakasesg #japanesefoodsg #kaiseki

For my recent trip to Singapore, I chose the Mercure Singapore Bugis (Waterloo Street) as my home base. The biggest draw was definitely the location—it's incredibly convenient. Both Bugis and Bencoolen MRT stations are just a few minutes away on foot, making it a breeze to head over to Orchard Road for some shopping or to Marina Bay for a night out. Plus, there are hawker centers and two major malls right nearby, so grabbing authentic local eats or picking up souvenirs is totally hassle-free. The hotel is centrally located at 78 Waterloo Street. It’s nestled between two MRT stations in a safe neighborhood that's perfect for a late-night stroll. You can easily walk to the National Museum of Singapore and Fort Canning Park. If you're not in the mood for a long walk, popular breakfast spots like Ya Kun Kaya Toast and Killiney Kopitiam are just around the corner, offering everything from classic Singaporean breakfasts to local fusion dishes. Getting to the heart of the matter—while the room isn’t the largest, the design is compact and modern. It’s genuinely clean and cozy, and the floor-to-ceiling windows let in plenty of morning sunlight, which is perfect for someone like me who loves a city view to start the day. The amenities are surprisingly complete; they’ve got all sorts of charging ports (Type-C and USB included) and even a filtered water system, so you don't have to keep buying bottled water. A real standout feature is the in-room computer equipped with YouTube and Netflix—you’ll never be bored even if you decide to stay in for the night. On the second floor, there’s a gym and a swimming pool, ideal for a morning workout or a relaxing evening dip. The self-service check-in and check-out process is quick and easy, and most of the front desk staff are bilingual in Mandarin and English, making communication effortless. Any issues are resolved almost instantly. Overall, this hotel offers great value for money. I’d recommend it to both leisure and business travelers, especially those who value transit convenience and comfort. Staying in this area means you can get anywhere within 15 minutes!

Singapore is an incredible city, but its fast pace can easily get a bit intense for a Brussels native like me who loves quiet afternoons on a terrace. Luckily, I found a lovely spot to unwind: the Furama RiverFront. What charmed me the moment I arrived was the spacious lobby with its massive six-meter waterfall. I grabbed a seat at the Waterfall Lounge to read for a while, lulled by the soothing sound of the cascading water and surrounded by tropical palm trees. It was a beautiful, timeless moment. My room was incredibly spacious and flooded with gorgeous natural light—a must-have for me. The view of the river and the skyline from the windows was simply stunning. Plus, the location is perfect for those who love to walk: the Havelock MRT station is just a short five-minute stroll away. In the evenings, I loved wandering along the riverbanks down to Clarke Quay or extending my walk to the vibrant, bustling streets of Chinatown. One morning, while passing by the outdoor pool, I stopped to watch two little dogs playing happily near the hot tub. It’s these little slices of everyday life that give a place such a warm, welcoming vibe. On the practical side, the hotel offers excellent value for money by Singapore standards. A quick tip if you're planning a stay: opt for a room on the higher floors for the best views, as some of the property's older sections could use a little updating. But all in all, it was a wonderful, relaxing getaway.

Singapore is renowned for its impeccable safety, clean streets, and futuristic architecture. · 📍 Must-Visit Spots: · Gardens by the Bay: The massive Supertrees and Cloud Forest Dome are iconic landmarks of Singapore.

The key is to dip the 'mantou' into the sauce. 🦀🌶️ · Bak Kut Teh: A nourishing dish similar to Korean galbitang. Song Fa Bak Kut Teh is the most famous. · 💡 Pro Tip: The public transport system (MRT) is highly efficient, so use a travel card or contactless card for convenient travel.

The Edition Singapore When you come to Singapore, don’t just focus on Marina Bay Sands. This hidden gem in the Orchard Road shopping district, The Edition, is a secret favorite among savvy travelers. 📍Perfect Location The hotel is right on Orchard Boulevard, just a 5-minute walk to ION Orchard shopping mall, and downstairs is Singapore’s busiest shopping street. It’s a 15-minute taxi ride to Gardens by the Bay, about 25 minutes to Changi Airport, and a 10-minute walk to Orchard MRT station. Everything you need for dining, shopping, and entertainment is nearby, including Ya Kun Kaya Toast and Jumbo Seafood. 🛏️How to Choose Your Room The standard rooms start at 38 square meters, which is quite spacious for Singapore. I recommend upgrading to a deluxe room with floor-to-ceiling windows facing the city skyline—watching the night view is very soothing. If your budget allows, go for a suite with separate living and bedroom areas and a bathroom with a standalone bathtub, perfect for photos. Be sure to book early on Trip.com, as weekends often sell out. 💰Money-Saving Tips Avoid the F1 season and Christmas-New Year period to save about a third on room rates. Tuesdays and Wednesdays usually offer the best prices, and discounts often apply for stays longer than two nights. The hotel’s pool and gym are free for guests, so no extra charges there. ✨Why It’s Worth Staying Here The design is top-notch. Designed by architect Moshe Safdie, the exterior looks like a vertical garden. The lobby’s high ceilings and green walls create a strong vacation vibe as soon as you enter. The rooms feature The Edition’s signature natural wood and linen style—no flashy gimmicks, just understated luxury that quietly says, “I’m expensive but I don’t brag.” The rooftop pool is a hidden gem. The infinity pool faces the cityscape, and soaking there at dusk while watching Orchard Road’s neon lights come on is much more relaxing than the crowded Marina Bay Sands SkyPark. There’s a bar by the pool where you can order a Singapore Sling—this is the right way to enjoy a holiday. Don’t sleep in on breakfast. The semi-buffet style includes must-try Eggs Benedict and Laksa, freshly made and served hot, far better than cold buffet counters. The restaurant has great natural light, and sitting by the window in the morning to eat slowly is truly healing. The service details are very touching. Handmade chocolates are given at check-in, turndown service arranges slippers neatly and adjusts curtains to just the right light level—these small touches are well done. The front desk offers Chinese service, so no worries if your English isn’t strong. This hotel isn’t as flashy as Marina Bay Sands, but those who have stayed here know how good it is. It’s perfect for travelers who want a quiet, quality holiday experience. Next time you visit Singapore, give it a chance.

Prime hotel in the heart of Singapore city center! After staying here, it’s officially on my must-stay list for Singapore and Malaysia trips|The Ritz-Carlton Millenia Singapore Having traveled to Singapore multiple times for business and leisure, I’ve experienced many overpriced and disappointing hotels in the city. This time, I booked The Ritz-Carlton Millenia Singapore and perfectly avoided the usual problems of city center hotels like noise, cramped rooms, and poor views. From check-in to check-out, everything exceeded my expectations. Whether for short sightseeing trips or business travel, this hotel fits the bill perfectly. 🛏️ Room Experience|Unbeatable Marina Bay Views in the Bustling City I booked a Marina Bay view room, which is especially rare in the prime and expensive core area of Singapore. The entire wall is a floor-to-ceiling glass window facing Marina Bay Sands and the ArtScience Museum. During the day, you see the staggered skyscrapers and winding canals; at dusk, the city lights come on one by one. You can enjoy the iconic city night view right from your bed. The room’s interior is elegantly luxurious, with leather furnishings and soft warm lighting. The brand-customized bedding is moderately firm and soft, instantly relieving fatigue after a long flight. The bathroom has a dry and wet separation with a full set of custom toiletries made from high-quality materials, showcasing luxury in every detail. The hotel’s soundproofing is excellent; despite being next to a busy main road in the city center, closing the door almost completely blocks out traffic and street noise, ensuring a peaceful sleep. During leisure time, you can visit the rooftop open-air pool and soak while enjoying panoramic views of Marina Bay. The 24-hour gym is fully equipped with imported professional machines, and the floor-to-ceiling windows let you work out with a view. 🍽️ Diverse Dining Experience|Taste International Flavors Without Leaving the Hotel The hotel houses several themed restaurants, offering a wide range of dining options for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, so you don’t have to go out searching for food. The buffet breakfast includes local Southeast Asian snacks, Chinese dim sum, Western baked goods, and fresh sashimi. The laksa and Hainanese chicken rice are freshly made and authentic, and the freshly brewed coffee is rich in aroma. The main restaurant specializes in exquisite Western cuisine with carefully selected ingredients; the wagyu steak and imported seafood are cooked to perfection. In the afternoon, you can book the elegant lobby afternoon tea, featuring a variety of sweet and savory snacks paired with specialty teas, with window seats overlooking the cityscape, creating a relaxing atmosphere. At night, the rooftop bar is a hidden gem, offering a variety of original cocktails and bar snacks. Enjoy a drink accompanied by the dazzling Marina Bay night view, and the ambiance is instantly elevated. 📍 Location & Transportation Guide|Explore All of Singapore Efficiently and Worry-Free The hotel is located in the Marina Bay area of Singapore’s city center, truly at the heart of the city. It’s just a few minutes’ walk to Gardens by the Bay and Merlion Park, so you can check off Singapore’s iconic landmarks without long travel. It’s close to multiple MRT stations, making it very convenient to reach Orchard Road shopping district and Chinatown. For those driving, there is a dedicated underground parking lot. A short taxi ride to Sentosa Island takes very little time. Whether you’re traveling independently for sightseeing and dining or on business heading to nearby office buildings and convention centers, the location saves you a lot of travel time. 💡 Practical Tips for Staying|Maximize Your Stay’s Value When checking in, politely ask the front desk if there are any available upgrades to a better view room; you might get a free upgrade if rooms are available. Guests staying in executive rooms enjoy full access to the executive lounge all day, with complimentary light breakfast, afternoon tea, and evening snacks and drinks. If traveling with children, you can request in advance; the hotel provides free children’s toiletries, baby cots, and other amenities, with thoughtful and attentive service in every detail.

🌞 Singapore – Malacca The weather was great these two days, and the views along the way were nice. I got to see the sunrise, sunset, and even the starry sky (though it wasn’t super stunning because of the thick clouds 🌥️). Normally I get motion sickness quite easily, but this time the sea was calm, so I felt fine the whole trip! 🙌 🎭 What I Did I didn’t end up trying the rock climbing wall, ropes course, or water slides. The boarding process drained all my energy — I had to stand in line for over an hour and then sit waiting for another hour 🥲. In Malacca, we had to wait about an hour for the tender boat back to the ship. Exhausting! So most of the time onboard was just eating and relaxing in the room 😴. I watched both shows: Voyage of a Lover’s Dream (I think that’s what it was called?) — a mix of magic, acrobatics, and singing/dancing. It was really good! The female performers were gorgeous and super cool 💃, and there were plenty of buff guys showing off their muscles 👀. Fabulous Chan — very interactive, high-energy atmosphere. Multilingual songs, but honestly pretty obvious lip-syncing 😂. Some of the interactive moments might not be suitable for kids 🧒. 🍽️ What I Ate We had breakfast and dinner at the Lido buffet. The food wasn’t as bad (or as amazing) as some online reviews claim — just decent overall. There was always something we could eat. One meal had braised noodles that we really liked — totally something we’d eat regularly if it was near home. #gentingdream #singaporecruise #travel #cruiselife #seaview #cruise #malacca

Wow — the Starbucks at Chinatown is on another level. Easily one of the prettiest outlets I’ve seen in Singapore. I absolutely love how well they preserved the heritage shophouse vibe here. This outlet also has exclusive, limited-edition drinks. A friend tried one and felt it might not suit his taste buds — maybe it’s something foreigners would appreciate more than locals. I didn’t try it myself, but that's s the Yuan Yang Coffee Frappe Hojicha, I'm taking about. . #starbucks #chinatown #singaporestarbucks #sgstarbucks #sgshophouse Wow — the Starbucks at Chinatown is on another level.

You don’t always need to pay for an expensive observation deck to get an amazing Singapore sunset. One of my favourite ways to watch the city turn on its evening lights is CÉ LA VI Singapore, on Level 57 of Marina Bay Sands Tower 3. For S$38 per person, you get a premium drink — cocktail, wine, beer or a non-alcoholic option — and, most importantly, a proper place to sit and enjoy the view. You’re looking straight across Marina Bay, with the famous infinity pool and Singapore skyline in front of you. The atmosphere is much more relaxed than a typical observation deck. Come around 5:30–6:00 PM, grab a seat, watch the sunset, then stay as the city lights come on. There’s also music and a DJ later in the evening, so you can easily turn sunset into a few hours out. 📍 CÉ LA VI Singapore, Marina Bay Sands Tower 3 💰 S$38 including one premium drink 🌅 Best time: around 5:30–6:00 PM 🎧 DJ from around 7:30 PM For me, this is one of those Singapore experiences where the price actually makes sense. Would you pay S$38 for this view + a drink? #singapore #singaporetravel #marinabaysands #celavi #singaporesunset #singaporenightlife #singaporetips #travelsingapore #marinabay #singaporeviews #singaporebars #singapore2026 #travelasia #tripmoments #harborviews

First time staying at The RuMA Hotel , and I’m already loving this property. And congratulations again to the team on retaining One MICHELIN Key for the second consecutive year. · What I enjoyed most was discovering the little stories behind the hotel. RuMa comes from rumah, the Malay word for “home”, and you can really see that idea carried through the design. From the Bird Cage at the entrance, inspired by the canary cages once used in KL’s tin mines, to the grand staircase and Bernard Chandran’s striking golden kebaya sculpture, there’s so much character throughout the property. · The location is another plus. Being right in Kuala Lumpur’s Golden Triangle, with KLCC and Pavilion nearby, made exploring the city really convenient. · There was some time to enjoy the hotel’s facilities too, from the 25 metre infinity pool and 24 hour gym to UR SPA. And of course, I spent quite a bit of time eating and drinking my way around the property. · My timing worked out perfectly with @guum.sg dinner collaboration at @atas.kl , where @chef_louishan brings his modern Korean steakhouse to The RuMa until November. Over at SEVEN Lobby Bar, a gin-focused cocktail bar with more than 77 types of gin, I tried their three drink cocktail flight featuring local flavours like kaya and pandan. · Breakfast and lunch were both at ATAS, while afternoon tea at The LIBRARI featured their Chapters of RuMa afternoon tea, presented on a handcrafted congkak board, with each “chapter” bringing together savoury bites, sweets, scones and pralines. The following day, lunch at SANTAI by the infinity pool was a more relaxed affair, with the KL skyline right in front of us. · It was my first stay at The RuMa, and I can already see why The RuMa has such a following. As for the Deluxe King Suite I stayed in during this trip, I’ll leave that for the next post. #luxuryhotel #luxurytravel #luxurystay #hotelstay #hotelexperience #travelmalaysia #malaysiatravel #visitmalaysia #kualalumpur #visitkl #explorekl #therumahotel

Baru landing di Singapura? The first stop wajib banget ke Changi Airport’s iconic waterfall, aka the Rain Vortex, which is literally jaw-dropping 🤩. Bikin feed kamu langsung naik level! Next up, jangan lewatkan Merlion Park and snap pic bareng patung singa legendaris itu! Spot ini tuh udah jadi kult banget sebagai simbol Singapura. Dari situ, kamu bisa chill sambil ngepoin Marina Bay Sands—skyline-nya bener-bener aesthetic parah 🏙️. And of course, Gardens by the Bay! Biar vibes Singapura makin kerasa, wajib explore Supertree Grove yang sekeren itu dan jangan lupa cek Flower Dome. Pas sunset, tempat ini super dreamy! Gardens by the Bay buka tiap hari, jam 5 pagi–2 dini hari (18 Marina Gardens Dr, Singapore 018953). Seharian muter-muter Singapura, rasanya puas banget deh. Sediain stamina ekstra biar bisa explore banyak spot tanpa skip! Jangan lupa, semua tiket masuk dan rekomendasi destinasi bisa kamu cari di trip.com, ya. #singaporetrip

#hellochristmas Just checked out from a staycay at The Standard Singapore and I’m already plotting my return. I booked a One Bedroom Suite and the moment I walked in, I was blown away — the ceilings are insanely high, giving the whole space this airy, architectural drama you don’t usually get in hotels here. The room design feels playful but luxe: bold colors, great textures, and little details that make you smile. Plenty of space for my pet dog too — and yes, they’re genuinely pet-friendly, not “pet-tolerant.” My dog was living her best life lounging around like she owned the place. Service was attentive without being stiff, and the location is perfect for a quick city escape. Whether you’re cuddling up with a furry friend or just treating yourself, this hotel nails the vibe: fun, stylish, and effortlessly comfortable. Highly recommend — especially if you’re a sucker for great design and pet-friendly stays #petfriendlystays

Not your usual sushi-focused omakase. What I really enjoyed about Ikkoten is how much thought goes into seasonality, texture and balance. The chef loves playing with contrasts, creamy against crisp, richer flavours paired with something lighter and refreshing, so nothing feels too heavy. Their 15-course Hana menu is inspired by Autumn, with seasonal ingredients woven throughout the experience. Some of my favourites were the signature Chilean seabass with nori butter and A5 Wagyu sukiyaki with foie gras. And as the meal moves into the sushi courses and finally dessert, everything just flows so naturally. Every course brings something different, yet somehow it all comes together beautifully. 🍣🍂 📍 Ikkoten Omakase, Telok Ayer #ikkoten #ikkotenomakase #singaporeomakase #omakasesingapore

Address: St. Giles Southkey, Jalan Persiaran Southkey 1, Southkey, 80150 Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia Price: 💰💰 Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Conveniently nestled at Midvalley Southkey, St. Giles Southkey Hotel offers seamless access to a plethora of shopping arcades, entertainment hubs, and local attractions. Our check-in experience, however, left much to be desired. Upon our arrival at 1 pm, we promptly dropped off our luggage before heading out for lunch. Yet, when we returned at 3 pm to retrieve our room keys and belongings, we found ourselves queuing at the concierge for a frustrating 35 minutes. A more efficient check-in system could significantly enhance the guest experience. Despite this initial setback, the hotel did offer a redeemable welcome drink—a refreshing guava ice blend—at their rooftop bar. Complimentary Bandung drink and water were also available in the lobby, though finding seating amidst the hotel's popularity proved challenging. Entering our room, we were greeted by a spacious and luminous interior. The room boasted a cozy window lounge area, plush bedding, essential amenities including toiletries and an iron board, as well as a convenient refillable water jug (located in the corridor). While the majority of the room was pristine, one of the pillows emitted a sour odor, and we noticed slight staining on the bathroom floor. The hotel's expansive gym offered an array of equipment, while the pool, though slightly compact, afforded picturesque views of Johor. However, on our Sunday visit, we detected a faint odor emanating from the pool, possibly indicating infrequent cleaning. Breakfast surpassed our expectations, showcasing an impressive array of pastries and Malaysian delicacies, with the standout being their teh tarik. Despite the breakfast's excellence, securing a table proved challenging, especially around peak hours. This hotel excels in convenience and culinary offerings, our experience was marred by lengthy queues and cleanliness issues. Nonetheless, for those seeking proximity to shopping and entertainment options, this hotel remains a compelling choice. #familytrips2024

Checking off the second Design Property in Singapore and marking my first Bonvoy stay for the year ✅ Used 44k points to try this for one night and thought it was an only okay deal, most notably because there is limited elite benefits including having to pay for breakfast (gasp!) 😝 With no pre-arrival communication, I was pleasantly surprised to be accorded a 5-tier Heritage Suite from my booked base room, and getting it at 1pm ahead of the official check in time. The space was actually quite nice with its modern furnishing and pops of colors in a shophouse setting. I like the neat layout, the Dyson hairdryer, and the comfy bed BUT I cannot watch TV in bed leh. #priorities 🥶 Breakfast at Kee’s was a very moderated buffet spread with ala carte egg dishes made to order - just enough value for its $35++ price (for in-house guests if added to room versus walk in). Great Greek yoghurt too 🥛 Def wouldn’t stay here on cash but for a points stay - okay la now I can say I’ve stayed 🔮

If you think a short two-hour flight doesn't offer much in First Class… think again. The dining experience is the absolute highlight! 😂🍾 This was Singapore Airlines First Class on the Boeing 777-300ER. What sets it apart from standard flying is how perfectly everything is paced—it’s a relaxed "dine at your own pace" experience where you arrive before you know it. 🍾 Starting strong with Cristal 2015 The real showstopper was the Louis Roederer Cristal 2015 🥂. Serving champagne of this caliber on a short hop from Jakarta to Singapore is a moment where you realize… yeah, this is truly First Class 😂. Sipping chilled champagne in the privacy of your seat while taking in the views—the atmosphere is just unmatched. 🍜 The Main Course I chose the Cantonese Lobster Dumplings in Superior Chicken Soup. These lobster dumplings served in a clear chicken broth with Chinese greens and mushrooms are simple yet sophisticated, making them perfect for an evening flight 🍜. The dumplings were tender and generously filled, while the broth was light and satisfying. With a variety of side dishes, including salad, appetizers, and dessert, the meal felt like a proper light dinner rather than typical airline catering. 🥖 Bread & Butter are a must Another highlight was the Assorted Bread Rolls & Gourmet Breads served with butter or flavored olive oil. Warm bread on a plane is a total game-changer lol. Paired with champagne, it’s a simple yet incredibly enjoyable combination. 🍮 A Sweet Ending For dessert, the menu featured a Nutty Caramel Tart. It’s a rich, nutty, and sweet treat—the perfect way to round off the savory courses. If you’re a fan of nutty desserts, you’ll love this. ☕ Afterward, there’s a selection of Coffee & Tea so you can sip on something warm while finishing your movie or music. 🥂 Final Thoughts on Dining For a flight that lasts only two hours, Singapore Airlines ensures the meal feels like anything but "airplane food." From the Cristal 2015 to the Lobster Dumplings and every course in between, everything is sequenced for a comfortable and refined experience. Honestly, even if you don't focus on the seat itself, the fine dining and the Cristal on board make this short flight a truly memorable experience. 🍾✈️

As soon as you step out of the City Hall MRT station, you're immediately surrounded by countless skyscrapers. The modern vibe is incredibly strong, making you feel like you've entered the very heart of Singapore. Strolling along the riverside, with the breeze gently blowing and the city’s skyline reflected on the water, you’ll find your pace naturally slowing down. Follow the riverside path, and you’ll eventually reach Singapore’s most iconic landmark—the Merlion. Along the way, you’ll see many locals jogging or walking, giving the city a lively yet relaxed atmosphere. It’s hard not to think: this is a city that truly knows how to live. Whether you’re taking a walk during the day or in the evening, Singapore’s city center is perfect for exploring on foot.

Autumn has arrived at Ikkoten, and the new seasonal omakase brings some of the richest flavours of the year to its intimate counter in Telok Ayer. The 15-course Hana experience moves beyond a sushi-focused omakase, reflecting Ikkoten’s kaiseki influence through a progression of raw and cooked courses. Autumn ingredients appear throughout, from cold matsutake chawanmushi to kabocha ebi shinjo with edamame purée and uni. The signature Chilean seabass with nori butter remains a memorable part of the meal, while A5 wagyu sukiyaki with foie gras, seasonal vegetables and shishito sauce brings a deeper richness before the sushi courses begin. Mongo ika, aka ebi, chutoro and buri lead into the signature negitoro uni monaka, combining creamy tuna and uni with a crisp shell. A light yuzu clear dashi resets the palate before an autumn chestnut Mont Blanc closes the experience. With only 12 seats around the counter, the setting keeps the focus on each course and its preparation. Ikkoten’s Autumn menus run from September through November, making this a seasonal experience with a limited window. Which autumn course would you want to try first? . . . . . . . #sgfood #sgfoodie #sgfoodies #sgfoodblogger #singaporefood #singaporefoodie #singaporeeats #sgdining #telokayer #sgrestaurant #ikkoten #omakase #omakasesg #japanesefoodsg #kaiseki

For my recent trip to Singapore, I chose the Mercure Singapore Bugis (Waterloo Street) as my home base. The biggest draw was definitely the location—it's incredibly convenient. Both Bugis and Bencoolen MRT stations are just a few minutes away on foot, making it a breeze to head over to Orchard Road for some shopping or to Marina Bay for a night out. Plus, there are hawker centers and two major malls right nearby, so grabbing authentic local eats or picking up souvenirs is totally hassle-free. The hotel is centrally located at 78 Waterloo Street. It’s nestled between two MRT stations in a safe neighborhood that's perfect for a late-night stroll. You can easily walk to the National Museum of Singapore and Fort Canning Park. If you're not in the mood for a long walk, popular breakfast spots like Ya Kun Kaya Toast and Killiney Kopitiam are just around the corner, offering everything from classic Singaporean breakfasts to local fusion dishes. Getting to the heart of the matter—while the room isn’t the largest, the design is compact and modern. It’s genuinely clean and cozy, and the floor-to-ceiling windows let in plenty of morning sunlight, which is perfect for someone like me who loves a city view to start the day. The amenities are surprisingly complete; they’ve got all sorts of charging ports (Type-C and USB included) and even a filtered water system, so you don't have to keep buying bottled water. A real standout feature is the in-room computer equipped with YouTube and Netflix—you’ll never be bored even if you decide to stay in for the night. On the second floor, there’s a gym and a swimming pool, ideal for a morning workout or a relaxing evening dip. The self-service check-in and check-out process is quick and easy, and most of the front desk staff are bilingual in Mandarin and English, making communication effortless. Any issues are resolved almost instantly. Overall, this hotel offers great value for money. I’d recommend it to both leisure and business travelers, especially those who value transit convenience and comfort. Staying in this area means you can get anywhere within 15 minutes!

Singapore is an incredible city, but its fast pace can easily get a bit intense for a Brussels native like me who loves quiet afternoons on a terrace. Luckily, I found a lovely spot to unwind: the Furama RiverFront. What charmed me the moment I arrived was the spacious lobby with its massive six-meter waterfall. I grabbed a seat at the Waterfall Lounge to read for a while, lulled by the soothing sound of the cascading water and surrounded by tropical palm trees. It was a beautiful, timeless moment. My room was incredibly spacious and flooded with gorgeous natural light—a must-have for me. The view of the river and the skyline from the windows was simply stunning. Plus, the location is perfect for those who love to walk: the Havelock MRT station is just a short five-minute stroll away. In the evenings, I loved wandering along the riverbanks down to Clarke Quay or extending my walk to the vibrant, bustling streets of Chinatown. One morning, while passing by the outdoor pool, I stopped to watch two little dogs playing happily near the hot tub. It’s these little slices of everyday life that give a place such a warm, welcoming vibe. On the practical side, the hotel offers excellent value for money by Singapore standards. A quick tip if you're planning a stay: opt for a room on the higher floors for the best views, as some of the property's older sections could use a little updating. But all in all, it was a wonderful, relaxing getaway.

Singapore is renowned for its impeccable safety, clean streets, and futuristic architecture. · 📍 Must-Visit Spots: · Gardens by the Bay: The massive Supertrees and Cloud Forest Dome are iconic landmarks of Singapore.

The key is to dip the 'mantou' into the sauce. 🦀🌶️ · Bak Kut Teh: A nourishing dish similar to Korean galbitang. Song Fa Bak Kut Teh is the most famous. · 💡 Pro Tip: The public transport system (MRT) is highly efficient, so use a travel card or contactless card for convenient travel.

The Edition Singapore When you come to Singapore, don’t just focus on Marina Bay Sands. This hidden gem in the Orchard Road shopping district, The Edition, is a secret favorite among savvy travelers. 📍Perfect Location The hotel is right on Orchard Boulevard, just a 5-minute walk to ION Orchard shopping mall, and downstairs is Singapore’s busiest shopping street. It’s a 15-minute taxi ride to Gardens by the Bay, about 25 minutes to Changi Airport, and a 10-minute walk to Orchard MRT station. Everything you need for dining, shopping, and entertainment is nearby, including Ya Kun Kaya Toast and Jumbo Seafood. 🛏️How to Choose Your Room The standard rooms start at 38 square meters, which is quite spacious for Singapore. I recommend upgrading to a deluxe room with floor-to-ceiling windows facing the city skyline—watching the night view is very soothing. If your budget allows, go for a suite with separate living and bedroom areas and a bathroom with a standalone bathtub, perfect for photos. Be sure to book early on Trip.com, as weekends often sell out. 💰Money-Saving Tips Avoid the F1 season and Christmas-New Year period to save about a third on room rates. Tuesdays and Wednesdays usually offer the best prices, and discounts often apply for stays longer than two nights. The hotel’s pool and gym are free for guests, so no extra charges there. ✨Why It’s Worth Staying Here The design is top-notch. Designed by architect Moshe Safdie, the exterior looks like a vertical garden. The lobby’s high ceilings and green walls create a strong vacation vibe as soon as you enter. The rooms feature The Edition’s signature natural wood and linen style—no flashy gimmicks, just understated luxury that quietly says, “I’m expensive but I don’t brag.” The rooftop pool is a hidden gem. The infinity pool faces the cityscape, and soaking there at dusk while watching Orchard Road’s neon lights come on is much more relaxing than the crowded Marina Bay Sands SkyPark. There’s a bar by the pool where you can order a Singapore Sling—this is the right way to enjoy a holiday. Don’t sleep in on breakfast. The semi-buffet style includes must-try Eggs Benedict and Laksa, freshly made and served hot, far better than cold buffet counters. The restaurant has great natural light, and sitting by the window in the morning to eat slowly is truly healing. The service details are very touching. Handmade chocolates are given at check-in, turndown service arranges slippers neatly and adjusts curtains to just the right light level—these small touches are well done. The front desk offers Chinese service, so no worries if your English isn’t strong. This hotel isn’t as flashy as Marina Bay Sands, but those who have stayed here know how good it is. It’s perfect for travelers who want a quiet, quality holiday experience. Next time you visit Singapore, give it a chance.

Prime hotel in the heart of Singapore city center! After staying here, it’s officially on my must-stay list for Singapore and Malaysia trips|The Ritz-Carlton Millenia Singapore Having traveled to Singapore multiple times for business and leisure, I’ve experienced many overpriced and disappointing hotels in the city. This time, I booked The Ritz-Carlton Millenia Singapore and perfectly avoided the usual problems of city center hotels like noise, cramped rooms, and poor views. From check-in to check-out, everything exceeded my expectations. Whether for short sightseeing trips or business travel, this hotel fits the bill perfectly. 🛏️ Room Experience|Unbeatable Marina Bay Views in the Bustling City I booked a Marina Bay view room, which is especially rare in the prime and expensive core area of Singapore. The entire wall is a floor-to-ceiling glass window facing Marina Bay Sands and the ArtScience Museum. During the day, you see the staggered skyscrapers and winding canals; at dusk, the city lights come on one by one. You can enjoy the iconic city night view right from your bed. The room’s interior is elegantly luxurious, with leather furnishings and soft warm lighting. The brand-customized bedding is moderately firm and soft, instantly relieving fatigue after a long flight. The bathroom has a dry and wet separation with a full set of custom toiletries made from high-quality materials, showcasing luxury in every detail. The hotel’s soundproofing is excellent; despite being next to a busy main road in the city center, closing the door almost completely blocks out traffic and street noise, ensuring a peaceful sleep. During leisure time, you can visit the rooftop open-air pool and soak while enjoying panoramic views of Marina Bay. The 24-hour gym is fully equipped with imported professional machines, and the floor-to-ceiling windows let you work out with a view. 🍽️ Diverse Dining Experience|Taste International Flavors Without Leaving the Hotel The hotel houses several themed restaurants, offering a wide range of dining options for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, so you don’t have to go out searching for food. The buffet breakfast includes local Southeast Asian snacks, Chinese dim sum, Western baked goods, and fresh sashimi. The laksa and Hainanese chicken rice are freshly made and authentic, and the freshly brewed coffee is rich in aroma. The main restaurant specializes in exquisite Western cuisine with carefully selected ingredients; the wagyu steak and imported seafood are cooked to perfection. In the afternoon, you can book the elegant lobby afternoon tea, featuring a variety of sweet and savory snacks paired with specialty teas, with window seats overlooking the cityscape, creating a relaxing atmosphere. At night, the rooftop bar is a hidden gem, offering a variety of original cocktails and bar snacks. Enjoy a drink accompanied by the dazzling Marina Bay night view, and the ambiance is instantly elevated. 📍 Location & Transportation Guide|Explore All of Singapore Efficiently and Worry-Free The hotel is located in the Marina Bay area of Singapore’s city center, truly at the heart of the city. It’s just a few minutes’ walk to Gardens by the Bay and Merlion Park, so you can check off Singapore’s iconic landmarks without long travel. It’s close to multiple MRT stations, making it very convenient to reach Orchard Road shopping district and Chinatown. For those driving, there is a dedicated underground parking lot. A short taxi ride to Sentosa Island takes very little time. Whether you’re traveling independently for sightseeing and dining or on business heading to nearby office buildings and convention centers, the location saves you a lot of travel time. 💡 Practical Tips for Staying|Maximize Your Stay’s Value When checking in, politely ask the front desk if there are any available upgrades to a better view room; you might get a free upgrade if rooms are available. Guests staying in executive rooms enjoy full access to the executive lounge all day, with complimentary light breakfast, afternoon tea, and evening snacks and drinks. If traveling with children, you can request in advance; the hotel provides free children’s toiletries, baby cots, and other amenities, with thoughtful and attentive service in every detail.

1-for-1 Hong Kong-inspired buffet with Boston lobster, snow crab and whole roasted suckling pig 🦞🐷 Canton Street Kitchen at Plate, Carlton City Hotel Singapore brings together Cantonese classics and a generous Seafood on Ice spread for a weekend dinner built around familiar Hong Kong flavours. The centrepiece is the Whole Roasted Suckling Pig, with crisp skin served with cucumber, scallions, hoisin sauce and soft mantou. The Typhoon Shelter Prawns are another highlight, alongside Pork Belly Char Siu and Half-Shell Scallops with Garlic Vermicelli. Seafood on Ice adds Boston lobster, snow crab legs and chilled prawns, with salmon and tuna sashimi rounding out the spread. At $138++ per adult, the 1-for-1 offer is available with eligible Citibank, DBS/POSB, Maybank, OCBC and Standard Chartered cards, effectively $69++ per adult before service charge and GST when dining in pairs.

🌞 Singapore – Malacca The weather was great these two days, and the views along the way were nice. I got to see the sunrise, sunset, and even the starry sky (though it wasn’t super stunning because of the thick clouds 🌥️). Normally I get motion sickness quite easily, but this time the sea was calm, so I felt fine the whole trip! 🙌 🎭 What I Did I didn’t end up trying the rock climbing wall, ropes course, or water slides. The boarding process drained all my energy — I had to stand in line for over an hour and then sit waiting for another hour 🥲. In Malacca, we had to wait about an hour for the tender boat back to the ship. Exhausting! So most of the time onboard was just eating and relaxing in the room 😴. I watched both shows: Voyage of a Lover’s Dream (I think that’s what it was called?) — a mix of magic, acrobatics, and singing/dancing. It was really good! The female performers were gorgeous and super cool 💃, and there were plenty of buff guys showing off their muscles 👀. Fabulous Chan — very interactive, high-energy atmosphere. Multilingual songs, but honestly pretty obvious lip-syncing 😂. Some of the interactive moments might not be suitable for kids 🧒. 🍽️ What I Ate We had breakfast and dinner at the Lido buffet. The food wasn’t as bad (or as amazing) as some online reviews claim — just decent overall. There was always something we could eat. One meal had braised noodles that we really liked — totally something we’d eat regularly if it was near home. #gentingdream #singaporecruise #travel #cruiselife #seaview #cruise #malacca

Wow — the Starbucks at Chinatown is on another level. Easily one of the prettiest outlets I’ve seen in Singapore. I absolutely love how well they preserved the heritage shophouse vibe here. This outlet also has exclusive, limited-edition drinks. A friend tried one and felt it might not suit his taste buds — maybe it’s something foreigners would appreciate more than locals. I didn’t try it myself, but that's s the Yuan Yang Coffee Frappe Hojicha, I'm taking about. . #starbucks #chinatown #singaporestarbucks #sgstarbucks #sgshophouse Wow — the Starbucks at Chinatown is on another level.

You don’t always need to pay for an expensive observation deck to get an amazing Singapore sunset. One of my favourite ways to watch the city turn on its evening lights is CÉ LA VI Singapore, on Level 57 of Marina Bay Sands Tower 3. For S$38 per person, you get a premium drink — cocktail, wine, beer or a non-alcoholic option — and, most importantly, a proper place to sit and enjoy the view. You’re looking straight across Marina Bay, with the famous infinity pool and Singapore skyline in front of you. The atmosphere is much more relaxed than a typical observation deck. Come around 5:30–6:00 PM, grab a seat, watch the sunset, then stay as the city lights come on. There’s also music and a DJ later in the evening, so you can easily turn sunset into a few hours out. 📍 CÉ LA VI Singapore, Marina Bay Sands Tower 3 💰 S$38 including one premium drink 🌅 Best time: around 5:30–6:00 PM 🎧 DJ from around 7:30 PM For me, this is one of those Singapore experiences where the price actually makes sense. Would you pay S$38 for this view + a drink? #singapore #singaporetravel #marinabaysands #celavi #singaporesunset #singaporenightlife #singaporetips #travelsingapore #marinabay #singaporeviews #singaporebars #singapore2026 #travelasia #tripmoments #harborviews

First time staying at The RuMA Hotel , and I’m already loving this property. And congratulations again to the team on retaining One MICHELIN Key for the second consecutive year. · What I enjoyed most was discovering the little stories behind the hotel. RuMa comes from rumah, the Malay word for “home”, and you can really see that idea carried through the design. From the Bird Cage at the entrance, inspired by the canary cages once used in KL’s tin mines, to the grand staircase and Bernard Chandran’s striking golden kebaya sculpture, there’s so much character throughout the property. · The location is another plus. Being right in Kuala Lumpur’s Golden Triangle, with KLCC and Pavilion nearby, made exploring the city really convenient. · There was some time to enjoy the hotel’s facilities too, from the 25 metre infinity pool and 24 hour gym to UR SPA. And of course, I spent quite a bit of time eating and drinking my way around the property. · My timing worked out perfectly with @guum.sg dinner collaboration at @atas.kl , where @chef_louishan brings his modern Korean steakhouse to The RuMa until November. Over at SEVEN Lobby Bar, a gin-focused cocktail bar with more than 77 types of gin, I tried their three drink cocktail flight featuring local flavours like kaya and pandan. · Breakfast and lunch were both at ATAS, while afternoon tea at The LIBRARI featured their Chapters of RuMa afternoon tea, presented on a handcrafted congkak board, with each “chapter” bringing together savoury bites, sweets, scones and pralines. The following day, lunch at SANTAI by the infinity pool was a more relaxed affair, with the KL skyline right in front of us. · It was my first stay at The RuMa, and I can already see why The RuMa has such a following. As for the Deluxe King Suite I stayed in during this trip, I’ll leave that for the next post. #luxuryhotel #luxurytravel #luxurystay #hotelstay #hotelexperience #travelmalaysia #malaysiatravel #visitmalaysia #kualalumpur #visitkl #explorekl #therumahotel

Baru landing di Singapura? The first stop wajib banget ke Changi Airport’s iconic waterfall, aka the Rain Vortex, which is literally jaw-dropping 🤩. Bikin feed kamu langsung naik level! Next up, jangan lewatkan Merlion Park and snap pic bareng patung singa legendaris itu! Spot ini tuh udah jadi kult banget sebagai simbol Singapura. Dari situ, kamu bisa chill sambil ngepoin Marina Bay Sands—skyline-nya bener-bener aesthetic parah 🏙️. And of course, Gardens by the Bay! Biar vibes Singapura makin kerasa, wajib explore Supertree Grove yang sekeren itu dan jangan lupa cek Flower Dome. Pas sunset, tempat ini super dreamy! Gardens by the Bay buka tiap hari, jam 5 pagi–2 dini hari (18 Marina Gardens Dr, Singapore 018953). Seharian muter-muter Singapura, rasanya puas banget deh. Sediain stamina ekstra biar bisa explore banyak spot tanpa skip! Jangan lupa, semua tiket masuk dan rekomendasi destinasi bisa kamu cari di trip.com, ya. #singaporetrip

#hellochristmas Just checked out from a staycay at The Standard Singapore and I’m already plotting my return. I booked a One Bedroom Suite and the moment I walked in, I was blown away — the ceilings are insanely high, giving the whole space this airy, architectural drama you don’t usually get in hotels here. The room design feels playful but luxe: bold colors, great textures, and little details that make you smile. Plenty of space for my pet dog too — and yes, they’re genuinely pet-friendly, not “pet-tolerant.” My dog was living her best life lounging around like she owned the place. Service was attentive without being stiff, and the location is perfect for a quick city escape. Whether you’re cuddling up with a furry friend or just treating yourself, this hotel nails the vibe: fun, stylish, and effortlessly comfortable. Highly recommend — especially if you’re a sucker for great design and pet-friendly stays #petfriendlystays

Not your usual sushi-focused omakase. What I really enjoyed about Ikkoten is how much thought goes into seasonality, texture and balance. The chef loves playing with contrasts, creamy against crisp, richer flavours paired with something lighter and refreshing, so nothing feels too heavy. Their 15-course Hana menu is inspired by Autumn, with seasonal ingredients woven throughout the experience. Some of my favourites were the signature Chilean seabass with nori butter and A5 Wagyu sukiyaki with foie gras. And as the meal moves into the sushi courses and finally dessert, everything just flows so naturally. Every course brings something different, yet somehow it all comes together beautifully. 🍣🍂 📍 Ikkoten Omakase, Telok Ayer #ikkoten #ikkotenomakase #singaporeomakase #omakasesingapore

Address: St. Giles Southkey, Jalan Persiaran Southkey 1, Southkey, 80150 Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia Price: 💰💰 Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Conveniently nestled at Midvalley Southkey, St. Giles Southkey Hotel offers seamless access to a plethora of shopping arcades, entertainment hubs, and local attractions. Our check-in experience, however, left much to be desired. Upon our arrival at 1 pm, we promptly dropped off our luggage before heading out for lunch. Yet, when we returned at 3 pm to retrieve our room keys and belongings, we found ourselves queuing at the concierge for a frustrating 35 minutes. A more efficient check-in system could significantly enhance the guest experience. Despite this initial setback, the hotel did offer a redeemable welcome drink—a refreshing guava ice blend—at their rooftop bar. Complimentary Bandung drink and water were also available in the lobby, though finding seating amidst the hotel's popularity proved challenging. Entering our room, we were greeted by a spacious and luminous interior. The room boasted a cozy window lounge area, plush bedding, essential amenities including toiletries and an iron board, as well as a convenient refillable water jug (located in the corridor). While the majority of the room was pristine, one of the pillows emitted a sour odor, and we noticed slight staining on the bathroom floor. The hotel's expansive gym offered an array of equipment, while the pool, though slightly compact, afforded picturesque views of Johor. However, on our Sunday visit, we detected a faint odor emanating from the pool, possibly indicating infrequent cleaning. Breakfast surpassed our expectations, showcasing an impressive array of pastries and Malaysian delicacies, with the standout being their teh tarik. Despite the breakfast's excellence, securing a table proved challenging, especially around peak hours. This hotel excels in convenience and culinary offerings, our experience was marred by lengthy queues and cleanliness issues. Nonetheless, for those seeking proximity to shopping and entertainment options, this hotel remains a compelling choice. #familytrips2024

Checking off the second Design Property in Singapore and marking my first Bonvoy stay for the year ✅ Used 44k points to try this for one night and thought it was an only okay deal, most notably because there is limited elite benefits including having to pay for breakfast (gasp!) 😝 With no pre-arrival communication, I was pleasantly surprised to be accorded a 5-tier Heritage Suite from my booked base room, and getting it at 1pm ahead of the official check in time. The space was actually quite nice with its modern furnishing and pops of colors in a shophouse setting. I like the neat layout, the Dyson hairdryer, and the comfy bed BUT I cannot watch TV in bed leh. #priorities 🥶 Breakfast at Kee’s was a very moderated buffet spread with ala carte egg dishes made to order - just enough value for its $35++ price (for in-house guests if added to room versus walk in). Great Greek yoghurt too 🥛 Def wouldn’t stay here on cash but for a points stay - okay la now I can say I’ve stayed 🔮

If you think a short two-hour flight doesn't offer much in First Class… think again. The dining experience is the absolute highlight! 😂🍾 This was Singapore Airlines First Class on the Boeing 777-300ER. What sets it apart from standard flying is how perfectly everything is paced—it’s a relaxed "dine at your own pace" experience where you arrive before you know it. 🍾 Starting strong with Cristal 2015 The real showstopper was the Louis Roederer Cristal 2015 🥂. Serving champagne of this caliber on a short hop from Jakarta to Singapore is a moment where you realize… yeah, this is truly First Class 😂. Sipping chilled champagne in the privacy of your seat while taking in the views—the atmosphere is just unmatched. 🍜 The Main Course I chose the Cantonese Lobster Dumplings in Superior Chicken Soup. These lobster dumplings served in a clear chicken broth with Chinese greens and mushrooms are simple yet sophisticated, making them perfect for an evening flight 🍜. The dumplings were tender and generously filled, while the broth was light and satisfying. With a variety of side dishes, including salad, appetizers, and dessert, the meal felt like a proper light dinner rather than typical airline catering. 🥖 Bread & Butter are a must Another highlight was the Assorted Bread Rolls & Gourmet Breads served with butter or flavored olive oil. Warm bread on a plane is a total game-changer lol. Paired with champagne, it’s a simple yet incredibly enjoyable combination. 🍮 A Sweet Ending For dessert, the menu featured a Nutty Caramel Tart. It’s a rich, nutty, and sweet treat—the perfect way to round off the savory courses. If you’re a fan of nutty desserts, you’ll love this. ☕ Afterward, there’s a selection of Coffee & Tea so you can sip on something warm while finishing your movie or music. 🥂 Final Thoughts on Dining For a flight that lasts only two hours, Singapore Airlines ensures the meal feels like anything but "airplane food." From the Cristal 2015 to the Lobster Dumplings and every course in between, everything is sequenced for a comfortable and refined experience. Honestly, even if you don't focus on the seat itself, the fine dining and the Cristal on board make this short flight a truly memorable experience. 🍾✈️

As soon as you step out of the City Hall MRT station, you're immediately surrounded by countless skyscrapers. The modern vibe is incredibly strong, making you feel like you've entered the very heart of Singapore. Strolling along the riverside, with the breeze gently blowing and the city’s skyline reflected on the water, you’ll find your pace naturally slowing down. Follow the riverside path, and you’ll eventually reach Singapore’s most iconic landmark—the Merlion. Along the way, you’ll see many locals jogging or walking, giving the city a lively yet relaxed atmosphere. It’s hard not to think: this is a city that truly knows how to live. Whether you’re taking a walk during the day or in the evening, Singapore’s city center is perfect for exploring on foot.

Autumn has arrived at Ikkoten, and the new seasonal omakase brings some of the richest flavours of the year to its intimate counter in Telok Ayer. The 15-course Hana experience moves beyond a sushi-focused omakase, reflecting Ikkoten’s kaiseki influence through a progression of raw and cooked courses. Autumn ingredients appear throughout, from cold matsutake chawanmushi to kabocha ebi shinjo with edamame purée and uni. The signature Chilean seabass with nori butter remains a memorable part of the meal, while A5 wagyu sukiyaki with foie gras, seasonal vegetables and shishito sauce brings a deeper richness before the sushi courses begin. Mongo ika, aka ebi, chutoro and buri lead into the signature negitoro uni monaka, combining creamy tuna and uni with a crisp shell. A light yuzu clear dashi resets the palate before an autumn chestnut Mont Blanc closes the experience. With only 12 seats around the counter, the setting keeps the focus on each course and its preparation. Ikkoten’s Autumn menus run from September through November, making this a seasonal experience with a limited window. Which autumn course would you want to try first? . . . . . . . #sgfood #sgfoodie #sgfoodies #sgfoodblogger #singaporefood #singaporefoodie #singaporeeats #sgdining #telokayer #sgrestaurant #ikkoten #omakase #omakasesg #japanesefoodsg #kaiseki

For my recent trip to Singapore, I chose the Mercure Singapore Bugis (Waterloo Street) as my home base. The biggest draw was definitely the location—it's incredibly convenient. Both Bugis and Bencoolen MRT stations are just a few minutes away on foot, making it a breeze to head over to Orchard Road for some shopping or to Marina Bay for a night out. Plus, there are hawker centers and two major malls right nearby, so grabbing authentic local eats or picking up souvenirs is totally hassle-free. The hotel is centrally located at 78 Waterloo Street. It’s nestled between two MRT stations in a safe neighborhood that's perfect for a late-night stroll. You can easily walk to the National Museum of Singapore and Fort Canning Park. If you're not in the mood for a long walk, popular breakfast spots like Ya Kun Kaya Toast and Killiney Kopitiam are just around the corner, offering everything from classic Singaporean breakfasts to local fusion dishes. Getting to the heart of the matter—while the room isn’t the largest, the design is compact and modern. It’s genuinely clean and cozy, and the floor-to-ceiling windows let in plenty of morning sunlight, which is perfect for someone like me who loves a city view to start the day. The amenities are surprisingly complete; they’ve got all sorts of charging ports (Type-C and USB included) and even a filtered water system, so you don't have to keep buying bottled water. A real standout feature is the in-room computer equipped with YouTube and Netflix—you’ll never be bored even if you decide to stay in for the night. On the second floor, there’s a gym and a swimming pool, ideal for a morning workout or a relaxing evening dip. The self-service check-in and check-out process is quick and easy, and most of the front desk staff are bilingual in Mandarin and English, making communication effortless. Any issues are resolved almost instantly. Overall, this hotel offers great value for money. I’d recommend it to both leisure and business travelers, especially those who value transit convenience and comfort. Staying in this area means you can get anywhere within 15 minutes!

Singapore is an incredible city, but its fast pace can easily get a bit intense for a Brussels native like me who loves quiet afternoons on a terrace. Luckily, I found a lovely spot to unwind: the Furama RiverFront. What charmed me the moment I arrived was the spacious lobby with its massive six-meter waterfall. I grabbed a seat at the Waterfall Lounge to read for a while, lulled by the soothing sound of the cascading water and surrounded by tropical palm trees. It was a beautiful, timeless moment. My room was incredibly spacious and flooded with gorgeous natural light—a must-have for me. The view of the river and the skyline from the windows was simply stunning. Plus, the location is perfect for those who love to walk: the Havelock MRT station is just a short five-minute stroll away. In the evenings, I loved wandering along the riverbanks down to Clarke Quay or extending my walk to the vibrant, bustling streets of Chinatown. One morning, while passing by the outdoor pool, I stopped to watch two little dogs playing happily near the hot tub. It’s these little slices of everyday life that give a place such a warm, welcoming vibe. On the practical side, the hotel offers excellent value for money by Singapore standards. A quick tip if you're planning a stay: opt for a room on the higher floors for the best views, as some of the property's older sections could use a little updating. But all in all, it was a wonderful, relaxing getaway.

The Edition Singapore When you come to Singapore, don’t just focus on Marina Bay Sands. This hidden gem in the Orchard Road shopping district, The Edition, is a secret favorite among savvy travelers. 📍Perfect Location The hotel is right on Orchard Boulevard, just a 5-minute walk to ION Orchard shopping mall, and downstairs is Singapore’s busiest shopping street. It’s a 15-minute taxi ride to Gardens by the Bay, about 25 minutes to Changi Airport, and a 10-minute walk to Orchard MRT station. Everything you need for dining, shopping, and entertainment is nearby, including Ya Kun Kaya Toast and Jumbo Seafood. 🛏️How to Choose Your Room The standard rooms start at 38 square meters, which is quite spacious for Singapore. I recommend upgrading to a deluxe room with floor-to-ceiling windows facing the city skyline—watching the night view is very soothing. If your budget allows, go for a suite with separate living and bedroom areas and a bathroom with a standalone bathtub, perfect for photos. Be sure to book early on Trip.com, as weekends often sell out. 💰Money-Saving Tips Avoid the F1 season and Christmas-New Year period to save about a third on room rates. Tuesdays and Wednesdays usually offer the best prices, and discounts often apply for stays longer than two nights. The hotel’s pool and gym are free for guests, so no extra charges there. ✨Why It’s Worth Staying Here The design is top-notch. Designed by architect Moshe Safdie, the exterior looks like a vertical garden. The lobby’s high ceilings and green walls create a strong vacation vibe as soon as you enter. The rooms feature The Edition’s signature natural wood and linen style—no flashy gimmicks, just understated luxury that quietly says, “I’m expensive but I don’t brag.” The rooftop pool is a hidden gem. The infinity pool faces the cityscape, and soaking there at dusk while watching Orchard Road’s neon lights come on is much more relaxing than the crowded Marina Bay Sands SkyPark. There’s a bar by the pool where you can order a Singapore Sling—this is the right way to enjoy a holiday. Don’t sleep in on breakfast. The semi-buffet style includes must-try Eggs Benedict and Laksa, freshly made and served hot, far better than cold buffet counters. The restaurant has great natural light, and sitting by the window in the morning to eat slowly is truly healing. The service details are very touching. Handmade chocolates are given at check-in, turndown service arranges slippers neatly and adjusts curtains to just the right light level—these small touches are well done. The front desk offers Chinese service, so no worries if your English isn’t strong. This hotel isn’t as flashy as Marina Bay Sands, but those who have stayed here know how good it is. It’s perfect for travelers who want a quiet, quality holiday experience. Next time you visit Singapore, give it a chance.
