I found it very hypocrite that a hotel which is a tower of 30 floor remember to save the planet at the expense of their customers who paid a 5 star fees to stay in a hotel that was more like a 3 star.

★ 3.0Family with Children

Nice hotel in a very good location near China Town and Maxwell Food Center (highly recommended!!), we never needed more than 10 minutes by taxi to anywhere else.

★ 8.0Family with Children

At no point from arrival and even through our stay were we informed of the benefits that went with the stay package we purchased.

We are incredibly grateful for the outstanding service we received from the team at Amara throughout our wedding planning and celebration.

Yet, despite their verbal and written assurances, the hotel management went ahead and rejected the cancellation request from Booking.com.

Modern, unique, beautiful, and spacious hotel...very kind and helpful staff.

★ 9.0Family with Children

In terms of service, the room card malfunctioned for three consecutive days; on the first day, after completing check-in, it could not access the elevator, on the second day, I couldn't enter the room, and on the third day, again I couldn't enter the room and the elevator wouldn't work either.

★ 1.0Family with Children

I don't like it when the sink is in the middle of the room and there is no separate bathroom, but that's a matter of taste; the toilet was, of course, separate and the shower was also separate, but the washbasin with mirror was just out in the room.

We had a short power outage due to over use of a power board in our room, (our mistake) and within 10 minutes we had electricians upstairs to fix the issue, they were so quiet and thoughtful of our sleeping toddler too.

★ 10.0Family

After talking to several other couples who were in the Club Lounge, who we found out that they had purchased the same package and were extremely disappointed with the service and not getting what was paid for in the package description.

★ 4.0Couples

I have given Amara quite some time to respond appropriately to my complaint but due to their lack of respect for the inconvenience they caused, I have decided to complete this review to provide insight to others considering this hotel.

Rooms are repeatedly praised as exceptionally spacious, comfortable, modern, clean, and well-equipped, with comfortable beds and excellent showers. Recurring drawbacks include inconsistent or incomplete housekeeping, dust and occasional bathroom mould, limited storage, awkward open-plan bathroom layouts, insufficient hooks, and some soundproofing concerns.

Also, after the first night they didn’t clean our room although we put on the sign to clean the room on, no one came to clean til we called. Which is so disturbing our stay when we had to wait.

★ 3.0Extended Group

During our stay there were a lot of groups of students staying over and it was very noisy and busy (doors slamming, parties in rooms, shouting in corridors. We had to change rooms because of noise).

★ 6.0Family with Children

Despite the A/C was constant I suffered heat during the night because of the heavy blankets of the bed, as a result I couldn't sleep well and sweated a lot during my whole stay.

The first shower we had smelt quite mouldy and was a bit mouldy but the second one (we changed rooms because of the noise levels) was absolutely fine and very pleasant.

★ 7.0Family with Children

Though Room Doors not sound proofed (stuff was vacuuming the hallways and we literally thought they were in our rooms vacuuming and we could follow every conversation in the hallways)

★ 8.0Family with Children

I use the toilet then come all the way back to the room to wash my hands, note that its rice beside the tap for drinking water too.

In our travels to other countries we had stayed in much more modern good rooms with one double bed and one single bed that sleeps 3 comfortably.

★ 7.0Family with Children

The only thing was the automatic toilet seat takes up too much spaces and forces you forward so you're private parts are touching the toilet bowl.

★ 8.0Solo Traveller

Really like the lighting design and setup, which matched well with the wood tones of the room to create a cozy, relaxing and intimate aesthetic.

Only in the bathroom were there – as is often the case in hotels – unfortunately a bit too few hooks for towels etc.

★ 9.0Extended Group

The sound insulation is really bad, if someone above you is taking a shower, you will hear water stream like is in your room.

★ 3.0Couple

It’s normal to have cockroaches in these climates, but in the rooms where people sleep, in a hotel like this, it shouldn’t happen.

The room size corresponds to the description, and the mattresses are pleasantly firm (hardness level about 4-5), which contributes to good sleep quality.

★ 4.0Extended Group

In my room, there were white stains on all the furniture and also on the floor, as if someone had spilled paint.

On the second day morning suddenly the room cards not able to access the room, whole family stacked outside the room.

The rooms themselves were stunning as well - only slight let down was the view (only over an adjacent carpark)

★ 10.0Couple

Therefore, a very practical arrangement and not waiting for one or the other to use a typical one bathroom arrangement.

★ 10.0Couple

Level of cleaning did not match the standard of hotel- dust around windiw sills, skirting and lots under bed.

It was a nice hotel and room but the arrangements and placements of little things are weird to me.

We turned it off, but it never got warmer than 22.9 degrees, which resulted in me getting sick.

★ 5.0Couple

For example, there were no drawers for clothes with all those empty spaces-only hanging rack with very few hangers; the hanging hook for used towel is on the other wall of shower; hair dryer cannot be used in the bathroom as the plug is only for shaver; the lighting in the bathroom sink or the dressing table which is outside of the bathroom are not so great so putting makeup on was a little difficult; there were stairs to get to my room floor after getting off the elevator- don’t know why they thought it was a good idea to place those stairs when guest have heavy suitcases.

★ 8.0

One would assume that a top hotel like the Amara frequently has guests who stay more than one night and don't want to live out of a suitcase, but prefer to hang up their clothes, shirts, and jackets somewhere - but exactly those people have a problem: Because there is nothing where one could store clothing usefully - no closet, no dresser, just an open clothing rack next to the door with exactly two hangers.

★ 9.0Couple
Ballroom Amara Singapore Stage Floral Centerpieces

The shower has an opening above a glass door into the room so it’s very noisy for anyone else in the room and you need to step out into the common area naked so there is no privacy amongst your family (we have an 11 and 14 year old with us).

★ 7.0Family with Children

Every day I had to ask for something - either there were not enough towels, or they didn’t replenish the supply of water, tea, and coffee, and so on (after contacting the reception, they would bring it, but having to ask for something every day is unacceptable)

★ 3.0Family with Children

In the room, we booked a family room, there is a wet room (box) for the shower with nowhere to put a towel or gown, you come straight out of the shower and into the room where the vanity is out in the open. Zero privacy!

The hotel is repeatedly praised for its central Chinatown location, walkability to attractions, restaurants, hawker centers, supermarkets, and multiple MRT stations. A connected mall and nearby shopping center add exceptional convenience. Some guests found the MRT a 10-minute walk or slightly inconvenient in Singapore’s heat, while others considered public transport less ideal.

Excellent location, very close to Tanjong Pagar MRT station, and there is also a bus stop downstairs which makes it sometimes easier to reach city attractions by bus with less walking than by MRT.

★ 9.0Family with Children

The location of Amara Hotel Singapore is excellent, conveniently located near Tanjong Pagar MRT with many dining options and amenities nearby, making it suitable for both business and leisure travellers.

The location could not be beat, being so close to all the major sights of Chinatown and also a short taxi to other key areas of Singapore.

There are plenty of restaurants for any taste & budget both at the hotel & in the immediate vicinity, as well as stores.

It is a little away from the centre of Singapore and Marina Bay.

★ 9.0Couple

The location is simply perfect: a bus stop right at the foot of the hotel that goes directly to the main attractions, the metro just a 3-minute walk away with a direct line to the airport, not to mention the markets within walking distance and the shopping center right next door… with even a direct passage from the hotel, so no need to go outside!

★ 10.0Couple

Being connected to the 100am mall meant that food and shopping options are plentiful, and the 24 hour convenience and grocery stores just a stone's throw away ensures access to food and any necessities all day and night, if the 24 hour room service at the hotel itself does not suit your needs.

★ 8.0Couple

The location is perfect as well: the metro that goes directly to the airport is only a 5min walk away, and all the others bus stops and metro stops are very near the hotel to go anywhere th city

★ 9.0Solo Traveller

We were pleasantly surprised by the local facilities and ease of access to all parts of the city via public transport (MRT) from either Tanjong Pagar or Maxwell MRT stations, both of which are pretty close to the hotel.

★ 8.0Couple

The hotel is very well located for reaching Changi Airport (Tanjong Pagar subway station, green line EW) and visiting the main tourist sites on foot (Chinatown, Clarke Quay, or even Marina Bay in half an hour).

Most guests describe the staff as friendly, welcoming, helpful, and professional, with concierge Keith repeatedly singled out for exceptional assistance. However, several reviews report understaffing, unanswered reception phones, slow housekeeping or requests, poor coordination, and occasional unfriendly or poorly trained service, including delayed amenities and checkout confusion.

If you want to arrive at a hotel after a long days travel with your family and see plenty of staff standing around and be told you need to get your own luggage cart, roll it through reception past lots of staff and take your own bags up in the elevator.

★ 1.0Family with Children

In the middle of the night the fire alarm went off, there was no staff to provide information, we stood outside at the emergency exit first, until we figured out ourselves that we should go to the lobby.

★ 6.0Couple

The reception clerk didn’t ask us about our stay at the check out (we had two rooms and checked out separately, none of us got asked) - I guess that they don’t care.

One person that stood out was Keith the concierge, he is your go to man if you need help and want something sorting out . He is the BEST.

During breakfast, the floor staff are not very friendly (though it may be due to being busy).

★ 8.0Family with Children

Your lounge staff was very rude and asked if I was entitled to my lounge facility ; it could have been handled better; such rudeness was intolerable and I could or should have lodged an immediate complaint as there was no need to announce to a packed club lounge room that I was having a questionable free feed when I clearly had a formal letter of invitation to enjoy the facilities of the lounge; I could easily afford the comforts of the club lounge contrary to what the lady staff thinks; she is the older one not the younger lady who is excellent.

★ 9.0Solo Traveller

Staff friendly: They were generally courteous but One staff member who had a special ability (disability) at the concierge was amazing. He gave me directions to places we could visit. He went an extra mile to open doors and call the taxi for us. He was really kind and made our stay memorable. This made me love the place more for its inclusivity even with people with disabilities.

★ 7.0Family with Children

The gentleman who greeted us also wasn’t treated very well by fellow staff who tried to point out his mistakes (which there weren’t any in my opinion as everything he told us was accompanied by a paper with the info) which seemed quite condescending and dissapointing to experience, staff can be further trained without clients present and in a more pleasant manner.

★ 6.0Family with Children

Seems visibly understaffed: there are long wait times for the reception desks, there is only one person handling breakfast for everyone at the Club lounge, there are constant delays with replenishing the towels at the pool area... I would much rather have more staff taking care of the basics rather than the random doormen loitering in the main lobby.

★ 8.0Solo Traveller

We were greeted by a lovely gentleman when we arrived who was pleasant, he had a badge that said 'please be patient with me' and we were, he was super informative and helpful and very eager to explain everything to us and show us around, we were very happy with the service he provided.

Breakfast is often varied, abundant, and high quality, with Asian and Western choices, but peak periods are repeatedly described as chaotic and overcrowded, with queues, cramped seating, slow replenishment and table clearing. Coffee machines frequently malfunction or create lines, and some guests found the buffet cold or below five-star expectations; club breakfast may be calmer but disappointing.

Both in terms of dish selection and quality. The juices at breakfast - there are two (sometimes three) options to choose from, and only from packages, there’s no mention of freshly squeezed.

As we were not very happy about paying for that service again, another 'solution' was offered to us: we had already consumed the 4 breakfasts that the hotel stated we were entitled to, and therefore on the second day we would have to have breakfast outside the hotel.

A similar issue occurred at breakfast because the hotel was fully booked; we were taken to a certain table in the adjacent cafe, and when we went to get food, we found that the staff had seated another group at our table!

★ 6.0Family with Children

The breakfast is decent, with a salad area, hot food section, desserts, specialty dishes, and freshly cooked laksa, as well as fried eggs, but the selection of cold drinks is limited to water and strangely flavored juices, which is a pity.

Guests repeatedly describe a modern, exceptionally clean, well-maintained hotel with strong amenities, fast Wi-Fi, a pleasant pool, gym, and convenient mall connection. The pool and sunbed area can feel undersized and crowded, the gym is small, and the Club Lounge receives mixed reviews for limited food and drinks. Lobby seating and luggage storage are also recurring concerns.

The benefits of the club privileges are a few extra euros on the reservation: two free items to wash per day, access to the club where you can have an aperitif with appetizers like an apericena, and in the afternoon you can have coffee, tea, and sweets, free non-alcoholic drinks in the room, free access to the gym, just 5 minutes on foot behind Chinatown, and behind there is a metro stop that takes you to the hot spots of Singapore in just a few stops; from the hotel there is the entrance of a medium-sized shopping center with everything you might need, we had prescription glasses made in 20 minutes and with a significant discount for less than 100 euros with VAT refund at the airport.

There was confusion about the laundry service with verbal confirmation of 2 items per person per day being permitted (we had two rooms), but a bill then being issued on checkout for extra laundry despite us only using it twice for a total of 10 items between 3 of us.

It’s like they have tried to cram so much in that the space created is not the most useable, for example - in the foyer there is only a few places to sit while waiting and we found a lot of the time these spaces were constantly reserved.

The pool is frequently described as lovely, relaxing, warm, refreshing, and offering city views, with towels available and a pleasant sixth-floor setting. Recurring drawbacks are its small capacity for the hotel’s size, too few sunbeds, occasional crowding, worn or neglected surroundings, cleanliness concerns, limited 8pm hours, and an inactive pool bar.

On the first evening, I went swimming, and the bottom of the pool was full of fallen leaves and branches, to the point that I could trip on them if I stood up. At that moment, I felt it was quite dirty, but when I went swimming again the next morning, I found that the bottom of the pool had been cleaned, so perhaps there are just that many leaves every day!

★ 10.0Family with Children

Worst part was the pool, really looked forward a relaxing time during the hours of day when temperatures were hot, however 3 building sites right next to hotel with constant drilling making it impossible to relax without head phones or earplugs in.

Check-in / Check-out: What guests say

228 relevant reviews

Check-in/out is frequently slow and crowded, with a small, understaffed desk and waits despite online check-in; one guest waited 1.5 hours and another arrived at 7:30 a.m. but got a room at 3 p.m. Early check-in and luggage storage are inconsistent, though some guests found both helpful; communication about readiness, charges, and incidents can be poor.

We had checked in on the official website in advance and planned to arrive at 4 PM. However, when we arrived at 5 PM, our room was still not ready, so they asked us to wait 20 minutes. Not long after, they notified us to wait another 20 minutes. We went back to the front desk to inquire again, and they made us wait another 5 minutes. After finally receiving the key, we found that the additional bed we requested beforehand had not been added. We had to ask at the front desk again before housekeeping finally added the bed. The bathroom doorknob was still broken, and one night, housekeeping only came to clean at 7 PM, which was quite disappointing.

★ 1.0Family with Children

I placed the clothes to be laundered in the laundry bag and filled out all the information in the room, but the housekeeping staff didn't take them for washing at all. When I inquired, the front desk said that their laundry service requires us to go out and find the housekeeping staff to personally hand over the clothes for washing!

★ 8.0Couple

I reserved 4 rooms on Booking.com, but only 3 rooms were booked. Eventually, they were able to secure 4 rooms for me, but initially, they insisted that only 3 rooms were booked, so they were not willing to help. When I showed them the reservation voucher from Booking.com and asked them to do something about it, they responded reluctantly.

Gym feedback is mixed: many guests found it clean, well equipped, or sufficient for a quick workout, but it is often described as small, basic, dated, or below five-star standards. Recurring issues include damaged or nonworking equipment, humidity, missing disinfectant and leaking ceilings; complimentary access to nearby Fitness First is a notable advantage.

Guests consistently praise the wide range of on-site and nearby restaurants, generally good food, and the excellent, highly regarded Jigger & Pony bar. Dining service is often friendly but sometimes inconsistent. Recurring negatives include expensive food and drinks, the bar closing around 11 PM, limited vegetarian and club-lounge choices, and occasional overly salty or low-quality dishes.
