The location is superb, with everything you need close by, including the MRT station and great dining options. the staff was efficient and friendly, always ready to assist. the room was clean, comfy, and had a beautiful view. I appreciated the thoughtful service, like fast room dining. Overall, a great stay compared to other hotels in the city.
One thing that could be improved at this hotel is the need for more natural light in the rooms. a refurbishment wouldn't hurt to keep up with newer standards.

Let me tell you about the veggie wonders at Carlton Hotel in Singapore! The fresh produce at Cafe Mosaic is a love letter to local flavors. The rooms offer panoramic city views and exceptional cleanliness. Plus, Wah Lok's 5-star dining is fit for food royalty.

our room was really clean and the hotel's location was super convenient - with raffles and raffles city nearby. the public transport was great with mrt and bus just a stone's throw away. also, the on-site restaurant was pretty good too.

The rooms were spacious and the shower was easy to use, plus the beds were super comfy, making it easy to catch some Z's after a long day out in the city. The breakfast was top-notch, and the hardworking staff really stood out, especially the friendly guy at check-in who set a great first impression. 🌅 Despite the warm room due to the iffy AC, the overall experience was still positive, and the central location made it a convenient choice for exploring the city.

Upgraded to a Premier room at Carlton Hotel was a delightful surprise. the bedding was comfortable, ensuring a restful sleep. the marbled tile bathroom with a bathtub was a favorite. the friendly and courteous staff went above and beyond, even offering evening housekeeping to respect the 'do not disturb' sign, showing exceptional care and attention to guests. the lobby's welcoming scent and cleanliness added to the overall pleasant stay, with convenient access to nearby attractions and amenities.
No complaints.

The location was dope, super close to Esplanade - Theatres By The Bay where we caught an amazing concert and checked out cool art exhibitions. Plus, it's near the library dedicated to the Arts, where we chilled and checked out graphic novels. The Premier Wing had the sickest view of the city and the harbor, perfect for Instagram-worthy pics.
The only thing we wished for was a hip rooftop bar or a club where we could party and hang out with other young peeps. More party vibes, please!

I thoroughly enjoyed the spectacular views overlooking iconic landmarks and the city from my room. the hotel's prime location allowed for easy access to a variety of attractions within walking distance. However, improvements could be made in terms of poolside amenities and breakfast options for a more enhanced stay.

Luxurious amenities and exceptional service made for a truly indulgent stay. the spa and wellness centre provided the perfect escape with its sauna, jacuzzi, and selection of massages and beauty treatments. the outdoor swimming pool and sun loungers were perfect for relaxing in the sun while enjoying poolside snacks and drinks.
The room was spacious and comfortable, yet slightly dated in its decor. the continental breakfast lacked variety and was not quite up to par with the rest of the exclusive offerings.

This hotel had a great location, close to several metro stations and other areas in the central district. It made it easy to get around the city and see everything. The rooms were spacious and had comfortable beds. they had a great on-site cafe with convenient hours for late-night arrivals.
The toiletries and breakfast were average, but realistic for a 4-star hotel.

I recently stayed at Carlton Hotel and had a wonderful experience. The location was perfect, with easy access to the MRT and Raffles City. There were plenty of great restaurants nearby as well. The room itself was incredible, with a stunning view and excellent housekeeping. The air conditioning was also top-notch. The hotel staff were fantastic, especially during the check-in and check-out process. I've stayed here multiple times before and will continue to choose Carlton Hotel for its fantastic location.
Strongly recommend this hotel.

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to the Esplanade, with its stunning views of the waterfront. The kids were amazed by the unique architecture, and my wife was engrossed in the diverse collection at the library. The vibrant atmosphere and captivating performances made it a delightful experience for the whole family.
In my wife's opinion, a kids' play area or activity center within the hotel would have been a great addition for families.

Our room on the 17th floor was spacious, clean, and had a comfortable king-sized bed. the views from the room were breathtaking, overlooking iconic landmarks like Raffles and Gardens by the Bay. the hotel also had excellent free WiFi and a fantastic breakfast with a great selection. the location was perfect for high-end shopping, with plenty of food options both within the hotel and nearby. a class act and highly recommended.
Nothing, it was perfect! 😊

staying at carlton hotel was a pleasant surprise from start to finish. the check-in counter staff were prompt and welcoming, making me feel right at home. the room exceeded my expectations, with only a slight hiccup in regulating the water temperature. the housekeeping team was efficient and courteous, always checking if i needed anything. the location was incredibly convenient, near shopping malls and within walking distance of arab street.
Finding certain amenities may not be immediately obvious 🤔.

I recently stayed at Carlton Hotel for a couple of nights on a leisure trip. The premier room I had was clean and spacious, with a fantastic view. The bathroom was large and had both a rain shower and bathtub, which was a nice touch. I was also pleased to find a big screen TV in the room that worked well with my Chromecast. The location of the hotel was excellent, with CHIJMES and Raffles City right next door. The staff at Carlton Hotel were professional, pleasant, and very helpful. They even accommodated my early check-in and late checkout requests, and answered all my queries. it was a great experience and I would definitely recommend Carlton Hotel to others.
100% Recommend this hotel.

We were impressed with the great location and wonderful views from the room. The staff at the executive lounge were friendly and made our celebration extra special. we had a nice stay at Carlton. we did have some minor issues with the cleanliness of the room, and the breakfast options were limited. Nevertheless, we would recommend this hotel.

I had an amazing Christmas experience at the hotel. The beautiful design and stylish decor really set the festive mood. The location was perfect, with easy access to the nearby shopping centers and metro stations. One of the best things about the hotel was the delicious and affordable local breakfast options available at the food court across the road.

As young people, we absolutely loved the convenient location and the easy access to various attractions and neighborhoods. The room was spacious and well-equipped, providing us with a comfortable and enjoyable stay. The coffee shop in the lobby, Tuxedo, served excellent coffee that gave us a great start to each day. The staff were friendly and efficient in their service, making our check-in and check-out process smooth and hassle-free.
Felt totally at home, nothing to complain about.

Opposite a famous landmark, easily accessible by bus or taxi. Rooms are standard with great gym and pool facilities. Friendly and accommodating staff offer room upgrades and late check-outs. Well-furnished and clean rooms have luxurious features such as bathtubs and television sets. Convenient location near train stations, amenities, historic sites and a spa.

The room was so comfy with a big, cozy bed and all the tech stuff I needed. It felt like a home away from home. The Wi-Fi was fast too, which was a big plus for me.
The mini bar was tempting, but I wish there were more healthy snack options.

The location of the hotel is fantastic, with several shopping centres, including RafflesCity Shopping Centre and CHIJMES, just a stone's throw away. Additionally, it is conveniently located near the City Hall MRT station and offers easy access to the Gardens by the bay. The rooms are spacious and clean, with luxurious amenities and a great view. The service provided by the staff is excellent, ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable stay.
The breakfast options at the hotel could be improved, as they lacked variety and were repetitive.

Convenient location near all the places I wanted to visit. The hotel staff were surprisingly cheerful and the view from the room was absolutely stunning.
Oh, they must have forgotten that people in the 21st century still use hair dryers and combs. But hey, who needs perfectly styled hair in a luxury hotel anyway?

During my business trip, I had the pleasure of staying at the Carlton Hotel in Singapore, chosen by our director for its convenient location and exceptional amenities. The hotel's fitness center, surrounded by lush greenery, provided the perfect setting to pursue my fitness goals. The gym offered a comprehensive selection of cardiovascular and weight training equipment, allowing me to maintain my workout routine while away from home. After an invigorating exercise session, I indulged in the dedicated male and female saunas, which offered a tranquil space to detox and unwind. The LifeSpa was truly a sanctuary, staffed by a professional team of therapists who skillfully rejuvenated me with their expert facials, massages, and comprehensive spa services. The serene atmosphere and skilled practitioners ensured a truly rejuvenating experience for me.
Nothing not to love.

The fitness center surrounded by lush greenery was a refreshing surprise. It felt like working out in a tropical paradise rather than a typical gym. The dedicated male and female saunas were the perfect way to detox after an energizing workout.
Poor communication within property regarding checkout timing.

We had a great experience at Carlton Hotel. the staff at reception were very friendly and accommodating, even adding free breakfast and upgrading our room after we expressed concerns about its cleanliness. the location was also convenient, with lovely views from our room. the breakfast was tasty and varied. We even received a free upgrade to a Premier room without any hassle.

I selected this hotel for a work trip and found that it met my business needs perfectly. The room provided a sense of space and well-equipped facilities that allowed me to work in complete comfort. The Herman Miller chair and Sealy Posturepedic mattress with soft duvet covers, plush down pillows, and sheets ensured a well-rested night.
The only thing that I missed for my work was the availability of a more extensive range of vegetarian options on the breakfast menu.
