Bliss Hotel

Chinatown & the CBD


Chinese-themed Bliss has an enviable location right across the street from the Chinatown MRT station. Rooms are contemporary and smart, with comfortable beds and modern fixtures. Be aware that some rooms come with see-through glass toilet and shower, which makes for awkward moments if you have company. Soundproofing is not a strong point; light sleepers should bring earplugs just in case.
