The Southbridge Hotel

Booked this hotel as it was reasonably priced for Singapore and the location is really nice. It is within walking distance to a lot of good restaurants and even downtown. Also bus and metro transportation is nearby. We got a room without a window which was apparently built for wheelchair use. At check-in this wasn't told to us, yet as the hotel was fully booked we couldn't change the room. Due to this purpose, the bathroom was quite large and the bed was easily accessible from one side. For non-wheelchair guests this can be quite inconvenient as there is no real place to store luggage. The bathroom gets really wet when taking a shower and one needs to hold the shower head constantly in one's hand as it can't be properly attached. The bathroom and room were quite clean and there was daily housekeeping. Housekeeping also provides drinking water bottles. Attached to the hotel is a sports bar downstairs which has good deals on beers throughout the day and also a little club like venue with music. At first we were worried to be kept awake by this but we couldn't hear a thing and music didn't run too late. Overall this hotel might be suitable for budget travellers that want to stay chinatown / downtown and have their own room (compared to a capsule or dormitory). As I probably booked a bit late, all other hotels were roughly 50-100%+ in price.

Great location, great service

Nice hotel in Chinatown. Rooms are clean. Good place to stay close to many of the landmarks.
