A Short Break in Singapore 11/11/10 - 15/11/10 (Part I)

This is the first part of my short trip to Singapore last month. I was flying Silk Air, the subsidiary of Singapore Airlines and my flight from Kota Kinabalu to Singapore was surprisingly full with more than half of those on board were Singapore Airlines transit passengers going to Europe, USA and Canada.

Look at the queue. Many Europeans and Americans travelling on this flight.

Concorde Hotel Singapore. This is the hotel i stayed at on my first day in Singapore. I stayed here once before back in late 2005 and it was still known as Le Meridien then. Guess who is the owner of this hotel now ? The Sultan of Selangor family is. They bought the hotel over and renamed it Concorde Hotel. We have one Concorde Hotel in Kuala Lumpur near KLCC and yes, it is the same one. The design of their lowest category room, the Deluxe room has remained exactly the same as it was back when it was still called Le Meridien. This is a very old hotel and is showing its age already.

Despite being such an old property, the bathroom is clean and very well-maintained. Kudos to the hotel management !
