Esplanade Mall

Really good value for morning. Great location about 5 minute walk from the 100am mall which has a Don Donnie as well as a Fairprice supermarket, multiple dining options including So Good Bakery, Toast Box, Mincheng Bimbimbap, Starbucks. Also same distance to Tanjong Pagar Centre with another Fairprice supermarket (this one bigger, frequented by locals, open 24 hours!), a good hawker center. 10 minute to Guocco Centre with more food options. Two MRT stations both within 10 minute walk - Tanjong Pagar and Outram Park (which is a large interchange station). 10 minute walk to Maxwell Food Centre, Duxton Hill. Fantastic free coffee machine (one of those with buttons to choose Americano, Créma, Espresso…etc) in the Communal Kitchen, also mineral water machine with really cold water. Saves a lot of money. Big fridge in kitchen with supplies to make labels. Super clean, super quiet. No TV channels or complimentary streaming but that’s ok because there is free wifi and you can watch on your own devices. Would definitely stay here again.

5 stays now since 2018. Its like coming home. consierge staff welcoming. Reception some are very positive. Some of the male reception are a bit off putting, grumpy? Let the Women do it. They were brilliant when One Farrer first opened. Mr Malik host of the 18th floor lounge is a shining light of hospitality. A professionalism worthy of the Top Paris Hotels. The Hotel need more like him. Cleaning service was incredibly improved since June 24. Seemed more professional. we look forward to our next visit later this year some time. I did not bother to review rooms. They are top quality with excellent beds and Bathrooms. I should mention, the only Hotel in this run through 6 hotels in 2 countries that had TV which worked properly and had options of movies in English. (other languages too of course) So well done management. Perhaps one complaint from me... I have Sleep Apnea and need a darkened room for sleeping. The digital room control pads seem unable to be darkened and at night the room is flood lit by them like a night time Sporting Arena. Next visit I will bring a hammer to remedy them as no amount of button pressing will fix them. Finally a suggestion to seniior management ... book into your hotel incognito and spend a night. see how it runs and learn room issues.

The staff at the hotel were extremely friendly and helpful. I forgot an item there and they got in touch with me promptly to return the item. The hallway had a musty smell unfortunately. Having said that I will stay there again in a heartbeat.
