This is an excellent property that is close to the action of Orchard Road yet not exactly in the bustle. The relaxed and resort like atmosphere one gets at the pool side is second to none. sg 08/08.
The hotel portrays a pseudo Mediterranean style decor complete with sandstone paint and terra cotta roof. Though not very tall, it stands very pretty at the shady corner of Tanglin and Orchard.
Superior rooms are from 25 sq meters and are beautifully-dressed in pastels and furnished with aesthetic lamps and rich chestnut-hued furniture. Rooms have either city view or view of the swimming pool and are equipped with complimentary coffee/ tea making facility. Broadband internet access is available at a charge.
Hotel has several restaurants operated by different tenants. One could enjoy gourmet Mexican cuisine and flavoured Margaritas at Harry's Mexican Restaurant and Bar. Indoor or alfresco dinning of wood-fired pizzas or pasta are available at Modesto. Stuart Anderson's Black Angus serves American portioned steaks, ribs and seafood. Club Chinois provide fine dining of modern Chinese cuisine.
The lobby is medium in size and done in dark marble. There are souvenir shops and boutique on the lobby level. There is a sitting corner to the right of the reception desk, this area is brightened with the natural sunlight.
Located at the start of Orchard Road, the hotel is surrounded by upmarket malls and Hard Rock Cafe. From there, it is a leisurely 5 minutes to the Orchard MRT station and also the busier centre of Orchard Road.
