Really nice hotel! States here for approximately 10 days and loved it. The service was on top I got helped with the things I asked for and they cleaned our room every day. Whenever I came to my room after being out they had given me new towels and everything I need in my room and made it so clean! Definitely staying here again next time in Singapore and the location was also excellent and close to different MRT and bus stations!! Highly recommend

The staff could not have been nicer or more obliging. The room was really comfortable, clean and there were good amenities. The gym had everything I needed and breakfast (buffet style) was also good.

Compact and bijou is how we would describe this hotel, clean and compact room but had everything you needed. We booked a short 3 night stay here and the location worked well to get around Singapore. Very helpful staff and a good range of choice for breakfast.

I stayed here for 2 nights last week, and i appreciate that they do the small things right. Soft closed everything, easy check-in, a welcome drink, options for pillow softness level, room slippers, good hot shower, strategically-placed plugs (and usb plugs), comfortable sheets, cold AC, filtered tap water, and a great location to explore Singapore. Thank you! We will be back!

Good size rooms considering the price and they were spotless! The whole hotel is very clean! The lifts are great, never had to wait longer than a few seconds and the in room filter tap was a great little addition to fill my water bottle. The pool sitting area is a little on the small side and can get a bit crowded, but it's pretty standard for Singapore. All in all a great stay and would recommend!

Singapore always delivers but the staff at Waterloo hotel is just the best of the best! Service minded and professional! The rooms are quite small but the lication is great, so the hotel suits the urban explorer without kids well.
