I'll be in Singapore next week between 11th November 2010 (Thursday) - 15th November 2010 (Monday). Bought the ticket just about two weeks ago for RM620 round-trip in Economy Class on Silk Air. All this while, i have been thinking where to stay in Singapore and Ah Lai was generous enough to offer me to stay at his place inside his hostel at NTU. Anyway, below are the pictures he sent to me to convince me his place is clean and comfortable and absolutely nothing like the student hotel in local universities.
It does look pretty comfortable eh ? And the toilet looks surprisingly clean as well. His room is shared with a Singaporean and i was told that he will be around on Thursday and Sunday nights. Now that is a problem. It is very troublesome for me to move twice and i have finally decided that it is the best to just stay outside somewhere near the city centre.
As some of you already know, hotel accommodation in Singapore is expensive and it is even more expensive than hotels in London and Hong Kong. I can find a 4-star hotel in the bustling Causeway Bay Hong Kong for a mere RM250/night but this is impossible in Singapore. The cheapest 4-star hotel is sold for RM500/night in Orchard Road (our equivalent of Bukit Bintang). Can you believe it ? Argh !!!
Anyway, i'll be staying at Concorde Hotel which is located near the end of Orchard Road on the first day and the three remaining days at Mandarin Orchard Hotel which is located in the centre of Orchard Road (yahoo !!!). I have stayed at both hotels before and both are decent hotels. Will post the pictures up here after i return from my trip. I will also check out the casino at both Marina Bay Sands and Resorts World Sentosa. Stay tuned !
