Hotel Fort Canning, Singapore

Hotel is near/in a park, so it is very quite. The rooms are spacious - especially loved the sitting room and the floor to ceiling windows. We will return to this hotel on our next trip to Singapore.

Great location, service, ambiance & breakfast!

The hotel is fine and what you'd expect; very friendly and eager service, clean, and so on. Overall, it's a nice enough place to spend the nights, but if you expect to spend time in the hotel, this isn't it. There are no changing facilities near the pool (and no bathrobes in the room), so if you want to use it, you get to walk in swimwear through the hotel (including the lobby, if you stay in the garden rooms). So that makes the pool somewhat useless. The hotel bar is not great for winding down after a day; it closes at eleven (or actually a little before then), and it's staffed with someone who apparently also has duties in or near the restaurant - so while the service is friendly, it's not very attentive. Specifically the garden rooms: If you want to work, you only get a too-small desk area, and there's only one chair, so don't stay with a partner or work with a colleague. You could ask for another, but there'd be nowhere to put it. There's a power socket at the desk, but nothing near the bed; if you expect to charge your phone over night and use it as an alarm clock, bring a very long cable and string it across. On the plus side, while the patio isn't private, it is a rather nice place to enjoy a sundowner or night cap. If it were fully private, or had a light, or slightly more comfortable furniture, it would be even nicer.

Overall, a nice stay. Friendly and helpful staff, service was good. Had high tea in its only restaurant and we liked it's snacks that were presented wonderfully. The only issue we had was the fire alarm that went off in the Wee morning but nothing was mentioned in the morning about the cause.

Had an issue trying to get a midnight meal after a long day out. Eventually when food arrived it was great but experience was already soured by then.
