You know that old building smell? Well, this place has it. The service was good, the rooms were nice and clean, just kindof old.
The location is pretty poor, there isn't much within easy walking distance. I walked to the MRT one morning, but it really is a bit far.
I also walked to Great World City mall, which was also a bit far.
I used their restaurant for breakfast, which was a very nice buffet with pretty much anything you can think of.

My wife and I stayed at the Holiday Inn Atrium for 2 nights while in transit in Singapore. The hotel is not very close to public transportation and is out of the way of most of the main shopping/business areas. The rooms were extremely outdated and bare. The lobby, while large, lacked any sitting area/furniture. The only positive aspect was the customer service-- the staff was quite helpful. Beyond that, we frankly expected more from a Holiday Inn, especially given the fact that Holiday Inn has updated most of their hotels in the US in recent years.

I was staying at this hotel from the 31 Aug 2011 through the 3rd Sep 2011 and thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
We had an east facing room, and it was very nice and spacious. The bathroom tub could be considered a little outdated, but the amazing deal we got to this place offset that.
I was really impressed by the staff at this hotel. I have been to many hotels where some of the staff are very welcoming and courteous, but at this hotel all the staff treat you amazingly well.
The concierge was extremely helpful and the hotel also provides a free shuttle service to Orchard St. which is an excellent shopping destination (or a nice place to find a variety of meals if you aren't interested in the breakfast or other meals at the hotel).
I tried the breakfast at the hotel and it was very nice. Tip: they give you $10 off breakfast ($20 instead of $30 per person) if you choose to select a breakfast option during check in. So if you intend on having breakfast here and haven't gotten a breakfast package, then get one at check in.
We ordered in room service quite a few times during our stay and were quite impressed with the food.
If I don't have an extravagant amount like $400 to spend on a room per night, I will definitely go back to this hotel!
Three years so o stayed at this hotel and said i would be back to see if it was as good as my first stay, it was just as good. the staff are very helpful. they make you feel welcome and the room was very spacious and very clean. This was my second stay at this hotel and will not be my last.
We stayed at the holiday inn atrium from 3 till 6th september 2011; it was quite a disappointment. The rooms were out-dated and had a weird disgusting smell coming from the old carpets on the floor. The windows in the room dont open.
The hotel is pretty far from major shopping centres and public transport so you need to get a taxi. Even the taxis dont drive easily to this hotel to pick up guests. However there is a free shuttle bus driving close to orchard road.
The breakfast was not as good as expected and the staff was not really friendly and uninterested; we requested for a table near the window but the person we asked to do this didnt want to clean a table for us.
Overall is was not the experience we hoped for and we will not stay at the holiday inn atrium again when we visit Singapore in the future.

Check in was smooth and freindly. Allocated an excellent room on the 26th floor. Great views. Sensational buffet breakfast.
My advice...book and prepay the breakfast at time of booking. Its a lot cheaper and well worth it!
This hotel is away from the main shopping area of Singapore, despite how its portrayed by the advertising guff.
Everything is a Taxi ride away, and while Taxis are not expensive in Singaporee, it would be lots easier to go outside and buy some drinks or snacks or do some clothing or electronics shopping at a place within easy walking distance and closer to the hotel.
If you want shopping and to avoid Taxi fares, stay at the sister hotel.....the Intercontinental in the city. You will save time and taxi fares. Minimal views but lots of other benefits there.
Drinks in the Lobby Lounge are overpriced (even at the happy hour prices).Wine is less than ordinary.
Bed is hard but pillows good.
If you travel to China and dont like the beds there then this is paradise!
