Official Description (provided by the hotel):: Wanderlust in Little India draws madcap, curious voyagers to the old ethnic enclave. Made for guests with a sense of adventure, we invite you to walk the unconventional path where a radical hotel experience awaits.Its history began in the 1920s as the Hong Wen School, where the building at No 2 Dickson Road still retains its old-world charm with an unchanged façade. Situated 10 minutes from the cosmopolitan stretches of Orchard Road and the Central Business District; Wanderlust also offers door step access to a bustling, colourful street life. The four storey boutique hotel has 29 rooms. Just as no 2 rooms are identical, the same can be said for each floor in the hotel. It features the groundbreaking works of award-winning Singapore design agencies. Each agency was given full creative freedom to design an entire level in the hotel, resulting in four, different ‘in-your-face’ themes – ‘Industrial Glam’, ‘Eccentricity’, ‘Is It Just Black and White?‘ and ’Creature Comforts.’ ... more less

Reservation Options:: TripAdvisor is proud to partner with Expedia, Booking.com, Hotels.com, Splendia, Agoda, Venere, EasyToBook, Olotels, Priceline, Tingo and HotelsClick so you can book your Wanderlust reservations with confidence.

“Design/Concept + Service = Fantastic Hotel”

Reviewed June 9, 2013

I was very impressed when I reached Wanderlust that the much talked about design elements were not photo trickery and were in-fact as good as they hype. The vibe of the lobby and the rooms are amazing aswell - a very welcoming and homely atmosphere after trolling around Singapore. If the design and aesthetics aren't enough to impress you the... More

“Boutique, design hotel”

Stayed here last year and just recently again. It is still a nice hotel, however it is not as new as it used to be. As said before rooms are small, however the bed is great. Even though compared to other hotels in Asia it might be a little bit expensive, compared to other (central) hotels in Singapore it is... More

“Concept over Confort”

Reviewed June 9, 2013 via mobile

Pros: in a great location. 5 min walk to Little India metro stop. Buzzing throughout the day and night with restaurants, temples, shops. Nice breakfast. Nice bar. Most staff very helpful and polite. Cons: absolutely tiny room. Feels like an over designed student dorm. Shower leaked onto tile floor which made it a neck-breaking ice rink. Toiletries weren't refreshed daily.... More

Dear L0nd0nLONDON, Hellos from Wanderlust! Thank you for taking time to write this review. We are disappointed that your recent stay with us did not live up to your expectations. The capsule-like layout of our Pantone rooms is rather unconventional and may not be for everyone. Each of our room categories is designed individually by different local design agencies, so... More

“Everything you need!”

Reviewed June 8, 2013

Singapore has a lot to offer. Therefore, we really enjoyed the good bed and the nice hot shower in our pretty cool room at Wanderlust after long days of touring the city. Breakfast is really delicious so you will start your day right and it felt good having a break in the jacuzzi. Almost all the Singapore sites are just... More

“Accept that Singapore is expensive, Wanderlust is awesome”

Reviewed May 15, 2013 via mobile

When searching for accommodation I was shocked at how expensive everything was in comparison to Bangkok, but this place is worth it. We booked one of the 'whimsical lofts' and the room itself was great: clean, modern, quirky and unique. Very unique in that each room is different. The room was clean, the bed was more comfortable than my own... More

If you are looking to experience the grace, charm, gentleness and hospitality that epitomizes Singapore then look no further that the Wanderlust. From the moment you step onto the scrupulously clean steps that form part of the historical front of the building, and enter the lobby - be prepared to be greeted warmly and genuinely by the reception staff.

We stayed 3 nights in the wanderlust, very cool lobby and restaurant with lots of designer itens. Tasty semi-buffet breakfast with fresh croissants, eggs, pancakes and fruits. We stayed in the black room, maybe a bit dark. ;) Toilet and shower are directly in the room, so for 2 people it could be a bit close... About 10 min walk... More
