Holiday Inn Express Singapore Clarke Quay by IHG

Great place for a few days! We were pleasantly surprised by how nice the place is. It’s well designed and efficient and centrally located In addition to being very clean. We flew in early from India and Daniel at the front desk was able to get us an early morning check in which was wonderful. (We were especially appreciative because we’d only had 3 hours of sleep on the plane). The buffet was ample with a nice selection of Asian and western foods. We were within walking distance to several great hawker centers which was fantastic. The only negative would be the rooms are so small it’s hard to find a spot to open our suitcases fully.

Excellent location, easy access to everything. Excellent value for money. Lovely breakfast, with generous offerings with a mix of Singaporean and western dishes. Rooftop pool and sunbathing area was wonderful and a welcome refresher after a day of pounding the pavement for >20,000 steps in 30+ degree weather. Staff were very attentive Rooms were smallish but more than adequate. Well appointed bathrooms with rain shower and telephone shower. Bidet toilet. Nice! Will definitely return, hopefully soon!

The hotel is lovely with its roof garden and pool. Buffet breakfast excellent. Comfy bed with firm and soft pillows. City view room was nice. Found the room a bit too cold! Staff helpful and managed to get late checkout as a member. Close to river and Central.

Wonderful hotel. Great location to walk or to take MRT everywhere. Great gym and pool is awesome. Only negative: breakfast! It is THE SAME everyday. It’s really not very good, but the coffee machine are simply amazing with latte, capucinno and lots of other choice. Serene, in the breakfast area is super nice and provide friendly and professional service 👏

Firstly the breakfast is awesome. And the older staff are fantastic and so helpful. Food is great too. Rooms are great beds are so comfortable. Now to the top thing the staff. From the reception to the cleaners everyone is so nice polite and do a cracking job. My daughter and I fell in love with the hotel and staff so much that we have booked again for two weeks this time!!!!

Holiday Inn in Singapore is not just your typical Holiday Inn found in other countries. Here, it’s more modern, with very nice rooms and a stylish bathroom. The only downside is that the toilet and bath are a bit small. We had an al fresco breakfast, and they offered a wide variety of food. Credit to Ms. Irene Choo, a staff member at the breakfast buffet — she was very helpful and friendly.

For the price, this hotel absolutely deserves 5 stars. For what you pay - of course, this isn’t a high-end luxury property, but that’s exactly the point - the Holiday Inn Express Clark Quay delivers everything you could want: clean and comfortable rooms, a great central location, and an efficient, well-run hotel. A special thanks goes to Serene at breakfast, who was incredibly friendly and welcoming. She gave us some excellent sightseeing recommendations and really made our mornings more enjoyable. If you’re looking for a well-priced, reliable hotel in Singapore with great staff and easy access to the city, this is a fantastic choice.

Great hotel! We arrived very early at 7am from the airport, and the hotel accommodated us for early checkin which we appreciated immensely. The breakfast was exceptional, with traditional Singaporean dishes alongside western. The MRT was a 10 minute walk, and the hotel is closest to Chinatown area where you can find so much food. Rooms were on the smaller side, but we were only there to sleep so it was fine. The rooftop pool was really nice with great views!

Good 2 night stay at this Holiday Inn Express in Singapore. It was walking distance to the MRT. This made exploring the city much easier. It was also walking distance to Chinatown and other attractions. Very convenient location! Most of the staff were very helpful. Don't recall the name of the young lady who checked us in, but she was great! No staff member that we came across was bad at all. The complimentary breakfast included with our stay easily surpasses any of the breakfasts I've had at HIE hotels throughout America!! Many excellent food options to choose from every morning we were there. Something for everyone. You could dine inside or outside. All up to you. The room was not as spacious as we are accustomed to at HIE hotels. Although it was smaller, that was not a problem. Bed and mattress were fine. I slept well. Wifey slept okay. Room had all the amenities one would expect and everything appeared in working order. Wifi worked too. We hope to visit Singapore again in the not too distant future. Without a doubt, we would stay at this Holiday Inn Express again if the price was right.

Holiday Inn Express Singapore Clarke Quay We stayed here. Nice. Clean. Many floors. Good laundry area. Great breakfast variety! Excellent. Wow. You are getting a really good deal for breakfast. We travel all over the US and this Holiday inn breakfast tops them all. Indeed. Highly recommended

Beautiful views from the roof very clean rooms. Staff very courteous and very helpful. Hotel is within walking distance of Chinatown about a 10 minute walk great market place wonderful, sticky buns and great authentic food to be had.

Fantastic value. After four days, I cannot say one bad thing about the Holiday Inn Express Clarke Quay. It's at a great location, just a 15 minute walk to either Chinatown MRT and Clarke Quay MRT. Staff are more than welcoming and helpful. Every single person greets you with a smile, whether they are taking away your plate at breakfast or answering a question about directions. Each morning you are greeted with a full buffet breakfast, which is not your basic hotel affair. The food is a mix of Eastern and Western food. With hot food options, it does change every day. The rotating menu is great when staying at this hotel for a few days. I am a huge fan of breakfast at a hotel, it's a great way to save time and cost in a trip. The hotel is in the shape of a giant "H," if it makes sense that rooms are accessible via outside as the entire middle of the hotel is outdoors and open. It's very cool and different. They have two sets of outdoor seating. Downstairs by the dining area and upstairs on the rooftop. Downstairs you will find a water feature as well as a cafe for lunch and/or grabbing a snack on the way out. On the rooftop there is a infinity pool, which is just what you need after a day of running around Singapore. It gives a nice view of the surrounding city, even a glimpse of MBS. Rooms are small, as most in Singapore are. But you do get a floor to ceiing window! The bathroom has toiletries, and reception is happy to provide you with something you may have forgotten. Just ask. Like most other Yelpers said, everything is nice and shiny in this hotel. Another plus: the room comes with a smart room. This is great using Google maps in Singapore. It was a huge help and had free local and international calls. And saved so we didn't have to get a mobile sim card. They have luggage storage! This was a great option for us. Our flight wasn't til 2a.m. so we didn't think of booking another night here because the room wouldn't be used. They have shower facilities on the rooftop (for after the pool/gym). So we left our bags at the hotel after check in and came back that night, before heading to the airport for the return flight. This allowed us a way to shower, and change before getting on a seven hour flight back to Melbourne.

I never really understood what the "Express" brand meant, but my assumption was that it's a lower end - more motel than hotel - brand. Well, this hotel shattered that perception! Top-notch! Competes with any full-service hotel anywhere. Great service, facilities, and amenities, including a rooftop, vanishing edge pool. As with most of the "express", "lite", "limited", "inn vs hotel" brand versions, I expected a "breakfast bar"...not here! Holiday Inn Express Clark Quay served a full, hot, quality breakfast - like real hot cooked foods and fresh baked goods with lots of variety, not just cold cereal, packaged pastries, and a waffle maker! I was really blown away! Great location - Clark Quay is a lively area with good full-service restaurants, and close to Chinatown and several Hawker centers with exceptional dining options.

We spent a few days in Singapore before going on a cruise and wanted somewhere convenient to stay. Really happy that we stayed at this Holiday Inn Express. We've stayed at the HI Express in various cities in the world and have never been disappointed. You know what to expect and the quality is always good. This hotel was no exception. Breakfast came with the price. Our room was compact, clean and had everything that you would expect in a hotel room. Close walking distance to the Quay, great location.

The Holiday Inn Express Singapore Clarke Quay is the very definition of a 4/5 star property. Allow me to explain: Pros: + Fantastic buffet breakfast. As in, I would encourage you to wake up early to go down, beat the crowds, and enjoy some really delicious food. They had fresh fruit, soy milk, congee, noodles etc. + Fantastic service at the breakfast. The ladies who were working were amazing. Running around to make sure it was as clean as possible, and really doing their best. + Rooftop pool, which was a nice little touch. + Very reasonable location, within walking distance to rapid transit. If you are in Singapore just for the Marina Bay area, this will be a little bit of a hike. Cons: - The rooms are cramped. Like New York City cramped. There isn't much wiggle room, so don't expect a lot of space. - The bathroom has a sliding wall that opens up into the bedroom. Huh? Why would anyone, taking a poo, want to share that experience with the rest of the room? All things considered, I would absolutely return to this property, and just make sure that when my wife is around, that I use the public bathrooms if I need to poo.

Spend 2 night at this hotel and can fully recommend this one. New hotel and modern in all aspects. Staff were efficient and polite from booking to cleaners. Special mention to staff working at breakfast buffet. Always smiling and on hand to clean tables within seconds of leaving empty plates. The buffet was good and plentiful and suitable variety on offer. Small but okay gym located on top floor and next to very inviting pool The hotel location was a 5 min walk to Clark Quay and one of the best nightlife scenes in Singapore. MRT is very close and allows easy access to entire city. Highly recommended

Nice business class hotel. Very good location. I had a few issues with my room but the service was superb and the issues were quickly resolved with a smile. The included breakfast is fairly good (but please add bacon to the menu in the future. The sausages were not very good and the eggs needed a bit more cooking) Service at breakfast was also excellent. Such friendly and helpful people. Likewise very good service at the coffee shop and bar. The room was nice, clean, had everything I need. The rooftop pool is nice and I enjoyed a relaxing swim on my last day along with some great views. Housekeeping staff was also excellent. I give kudus to the staff and management for the high level of service. Because of that I can guarantee that this will be at the top of my list for my future business trips to Singapore.

Beautiful new hotel with an amazing pool! The rooms are on the smaller side, but it's perfect for business travel. Location is ideal as it is very central. The staff is very friendly as well.

The hotel feels quite new and shiny, much like lots of Singapore itself. It's located just off Clarke Quay, slightly north of Chinatown and near some great food. Although you're always close to good food in Singapore. I needed to cancel my first nights stay because of a flight delay, when I called the hotel at what was about 2am local time, staff were super nice and very helpful. They refunded me the full cost of one night even though I gave such short notice. The room itself is small, with not even enough room to leave a suitcase open without tripping over it. It's not a huge issue given how well located the hotel is, you'll spend more time outside. On the plus side, the room is well stocked with coffee, tea & water and is absolutely spotless. There's an open air gym and infinity pool on the roof which are quite a nice bonus. After a sweaty workout (due to the humidity as opposed to my rigor) and a cool shower, a few laps in the pool was pretty nice. The room price includes access to the breakfast buffet which is vast, and a zoo. They have a range of cereals, fruit, pastries, juices, eggs, noodles etc but it gets overrun with so many guests. There's just not enough seating. I saw at least two groups claim tables only to have them yanked before they returned with food. There must be a better system for that. At check-out, the front desk clerk recognized my name and introduced herself as being the person I had called to cancel a night. All in all, they couldn't have been nicer to interact with. Highly recommended if being near the Marina Bay Sands area isn't important to you.

Clean and reasonable sized rooms with a comfortable bed. Unfortunately the wifi was slow and almost unusable in the room. The all inclusive - eat as much as you like - breakfast was the definition of a bun fight. There wee many more people dining than seats available.
