"The atrium of the Marina Mandarin is a colossal 21-story space, but it is peaceful and serene for its size and busy location due to the natural light that streams through skylights."

Each room has a balcony -- ask for a harborview room.
Fodor's
"The relatively peaceful lobby here has a John Portman–designed atrium that narrows as it ascends 21 floors to a tinted skylight."

Pastel guest rooms are modern and smart; for the best view, request a room overlooking the harbor.
Time Out
"Rooms at the Marina Mandarin are crisp and elegant – done up in creams, beiges and browns – and all have balconies; some suites even have views of the harbour."

Star Service
"While not as efficient and elegant as the Ritz-Carlton next door, it is certainly on par with the towering adjacent Pan Pacific's fine facilities."

"Though celebrating its 125th birthday in 2012, the hotel is still a magnet for A-listers (Elizabeth Taylor, Diane von Furstenberg, and Barry Diller have all stayed here)."

Rough Guide
"The modern extension is a mixed bag, but the Raffles remains refreshingly low-rise and still has colonial-era charm in spades."
