"The most elegant of the Marina Bay atrium-style hotels... The Mandarin Oriental's restaurants and bars are excellent (though expensive), and its hushed, exotic spa is to die for. Service is superb." Full review

"Inside this pyramid-shape Marina Square hotel, the level of service is second to none. Subdued, modern elegance and personal attention are the hallmarks here." Full review

"Of the several hotels clustered at the Robertson Quay end of the river (the closest MRT is Tiong Bahru, but it’s not within walking distance), the fanciest is this imposing place."

"Along Singapore River but far removed from the heart of the action, this bland place seems far past its prime, through low prices ensure its popularity among Asian travelers and tour groups." Full review
