Budget and location-wise, Strand Hotel is a very good and convenient hotel. Had a good 3D2N stay with friends. The hotel is surprisingly very quiet despite the construction is taking place just outside of the hotel. Location: Not a lot of tourist attraction but Bras Basah and Dhoby Ghaut MRT station and bus stop is on a walking distance. Excellent!... More

BOOKING This hotel does not have online registration anywhere. You simply fill in the forms from their website. Submit it then the hotel staff will reply your email. You will need to provide your credit card Information to secure the bookings. First of all, this may seem unsecure sending credit card informations over the email. But I have no problem.... More

Overall this hotel meets expectations. The front desk was very helpful and spoke English well (like most of Singapore). Conveniently located near the subway station and as of February 2013, Bencoolen station is under construction so you would need to go around the construction area to get to the hotel. Probably once the construction is done, the subway is just... More

Its perfect location for MRT, Bus station and food options.Also, there is a Seven eleven opposited of... More

Simply love the spacious room like old time, able to run around so to speak. Its an old hotel, hence a liftups for the room will be great. Great location for almost everything, like sightseeing, shopping and looking for food. MRT Bras Basah is just 2min away, Dhoby Ghaut is some walking distance, buses are everywhere on Orchard Road..

The other room had an issue with water leaking at the shower area (only during taking a bath) but it was tolerable. Each rooms were equipped with coffee,... More
