Rendezvous Hotel

Singapore


A good option near Orchard Road, the Rendezvous features dramatic sculptures in its svelte lobby, a nod to its ambition to become an 'art hotel'. Admittedly, the beige-and-brown rooms aren't quite as sexy, although all are clean and comfortable, with firm mattresses and marble bathrooms with rain shower heads. Both the gym and pool are small, though the latter is nonetheless inviting.

The website offers good discounts, you can often book rooms for around S$250.
