Singapore is the smallest nation in South East Asia, and is one of the last three remaining city-states in the world. It is so small that the entire island used to be one fishing village, inhabited by indigenous Orang Laut people and considered part of Malaysia. Since European settlement though, it has become known for colonial romance, and a unique blend of the West and the East in its culture.
The transition to Asian adventures is easy in Singapore, with myriads of shopping malls, skyscrapers, and Western fashion, yet also with Chinese luck traditions, Malaysian fashion sensibilities, and the signature language 'Singlish', which is a blend of English and Singaporese! So here we look at some of the best luxury hotels in Singapore at the best prices, helping introduce you to the charms of the East!
Shangri-La Hotel is listed as one of the two best luxury hotels in Singapore by Frommers. Shangri-La takes their name from a fictional paradise, and the grounds of every one of their hotels worldwide are created to reflect this ideal. Sprawling, lush gardens with native and local flora help create an authentic experience of Singapore. They also give you the opportunity to clean your lungs, away from the sometimes cloying atmosphere of the city. The hotel has a choice of styles of accommodation; the themes include Oriental, natural resort style, or urban contemporary decor.
There are actually two Shangri-La's in Singapore - Shangri-La Hotel Singapore is more centrally located, while Shangri-La Rasa Sentosa Resort is located on Sentosa island, and is perfect for more of a getaway holiday. This is the hotel that the locals love, so if you love to immerse yourself in local culture, the Rasa Sentosa is the choice for you.
The RELC International Hotel in Singapore is another that offers excellent facilities and charming personal service, at a fraction of the price of others. The RELC boasts a great location, only 10 minutes walk from Orchard Road; one of Singapore's most popular tourist districts. Try the Hollywood queen or alcove suites for luxury, gorgeous modern decor and spaciousness.
Some of the small perks of the RELC International include free drinks and snacks in the rooms, and little luxuries such as full length tubs in the rooms. Book this Singapore hotel when you are looking to be pleasantly surprised by the level of service as well as by the credit card charge at the end of your stay!
The Orchard Parade hotel in Singapore is located centrally, especially close to some of Singapore's famous fine restaurants. A great choice for little luxuries like a rooftop pool - feel like you are swimming off the edge of the world, amid neo-classical decor with features like draping arbors and colorful Roman tiles.
The Mediterranean theme continues in the rooms of this Singapore hotel, with shades of terracotta, teal and aqua to remind you of a Romanesque spa. The Orchard Parade Hotel also has a new fitness center, a business center for corporate travelers, and babysitting services!
Singapore's wonderfully alive, diverse culture makes for a truly foreign experience - yet your luxury hotel in Singapore makes you feel just like you are at home. Travelers are widely accepted and warmly welcomed - your difference is only adding to the enormous and joyful diversity of the city. Enjoy your trip to Singapore in a luxury hotel, at budget friendly prices!
