Pretty good hotel; does all the basics well. Very good location; this hotel is in a main hotel area. Minuses are the laundry service which is horrendously expensive (and they shrunk a much beloved pair of travel trousers) and the restaurant downstairs which should only be used as a last resort for breakfast. That is, unless cold eggs and watery... more

My company put me up at the Carlton for a month. pros: - The room was quite spacious and I did not mind living out of it for the month. - Long-term stays receive a plate of fruit every Monday - Wireless works at the outdoor pool. Pool is nice and is open until 10pm. Pool bar is open til... more

I had stayed at the Carlton many years ago and retruned there recently. The hotel was undergoing significant renovations (I seem to remember that this was the case previously!) The hotel offers all the facilities required for the business traveller but I had to pay extra for using the internet which always seems a con. The rooms are comfortable but... more

The hotel is next door to the legendary Raffles Hotel and Marketplace...about 10-15 minute walk to the Merlion Park. There's a local food court nearby if you turn right from the hotel, where they sell delicious bbq skates. I like the convenient location, good internet access, staff is extremely helpful and friendly. The only problem during our stay was the... more

I have to say - we were disappointed with our stay at the Carlton. I hate to be critical, but in all honesty, it just wasnt up to scratch. Location is fine - walkable to the bay, and to shopping malls etc. The lobby is very nice, and walking into the hotel is a pleasure - unfortunately it was downhill... more

Reception and public areas were great. Staff were all professional, friendly and attentive - the housekeeper on my floor and the doorman were especially lovely. Rooms were basic and in need of refurbishment although clean and functional. Great location and you can walk to most places of interest from here e.g. Raffles is accross the street, the river and Quay... more

I stayed here for a week in August. The room was on the 21st floor with a great view. I was impressed with the clean room, and nice bathroom. The service could have been better but since this is not a 5 star hotel I wasn't expecting it to be at that level. I was very happy with the pool... more

We arrived at this hotel on 20th August at around 8am. I had called ahead and asked for a 3rd bed in the room and thought I got a reasonable price of $80. When we arrived the room was ready and we went straight to it exhausted. My son was thirsty and I allowed him to drink a bottle of... more

Stayed at the Carlton in September for business. I booked online, then called them up to discover they had better offers which included internet - something which in China for example is standard for a 4-star or higher. Anyway, so I booked the higher rate incl. internet and breakfast. Mind, it was still about SGD 198, which is not budget.... more
