JEN Singapore Orchardgateway by Shangri-La

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our 2 night stay at Hotel Jen on Orchard Road. It is well located and a spacious comfortable hotel. We opted for the club lounge room and were pleased with this decision. The cocktail hour is very generous with great finger food options along with quality wine on offer. The breakfast both in the club room as well as the main downstairs breakfast buffet room was extensive and delicious. The views from both the club lounge and the pool deck is beautiful. The staff at every level of service were both professional and friendly. We would thoroughly recommend this hotel to anyone wanting a relaxing stay in or as a base to explore what Singapore has to offer with the MRT below the hotel..

We booked 2 days a Paranormal 180-degree glass view overlooking the busy City. We really looking forward to it. On the very day of check in, the room layout was cool, there are both Day and Night curtain remotely controlled inside the room. The bathroom was big and long with two wash basins and a big tube. But there was no instruction on how to pull the blind down at the tub area where is expose to outside. The remote was badly maintained and most of the buttons were gone. The essential items like shower gel, shampoo, conditioner, moisture was limited. We asked but only half of it comes not too sure where the other goes.

We had planned our Christmas vacation a long time ago and had high expectations of the hotel. We were not disappointed, but rather the hotel and the staff exceeded them.||Upon arriving, we had booked an airport transportation and Andrew was very polite, attentive and informative towards us. ||At reception, we were greeted with very helpful and polite staff. We were offered an extra bed for our son, free of charge. This was a very pleasant surprise as we thought and were previously told that the room type would not fit an extra bed. ||The room was more spacious than we had thought and the cleaning staff has kept it perfectly comfortable and clean for us throughout our visit.||The breakfast has been amazing every morning, but if you don’t want to queue for a table, I suggest you be at the restaurant before 8 am. ||The absolute crown of the place is the rooftop pool. I want to mention Ina especially from the Tiki bar who made us and especially our son feel special and welcomed every day we met her. ||The hotel offers great value for the money.

We stayed 5 nights. The rooms are comfortable with huge beds and lots of free extras. The breakfasts are amazing with a large international choice that changes every day. The pool is great with city views and we always managed to get a table. The staff are so polite and helpful. The location is central and is above Somerset MRT Station with a sneaky direct elevator to avoid tackling the mall! Thanks team

I was staying in Jen multiple times and it was usually always offered good combination of great location and friendly service. Also booking directly with last minute cancellation option is great. Unfortunately with the time quality is going down. Breakfast is not only overcrowded, but the quality of the food dropped dramatically. Despite 10% automatic servicing charge on your bill, it looks that some employees, especially the pool team really lost connection to reality. They are lazy, have the pool area not under control and just being there physically, but not mentally. We spent 13 nights in the hotel this month and this will be my last stay despite that Im a high level loyalty member. The price-quality is really not worth anymore.

Lovely hotel right on the Orchard Road making it so easy to get around everywhere. The pool looked amazing on the roof however we didn’t get to use it ourselves. We upgraded to Club which was perfect for us. Very calm place to eat breakfast and to chill out at any point of the day, plus the free alcohol in the evening was a great touch. Very clean hotel, loved the robot cleaners, one even caught the lift with us which made us laugh. Only downside was the aircon was quite harsh and there’s no availability to open the window for fresh air. We both had throat and sinus issues after 3 nights!

Love this hotel so much! They have the best technology and service available! Why I chose to come back is because in their toilets they have this cool machine where it helps to spin dry my swim suit. Lovely pool view, food is superb and Service is always on par! Good place for shopping nearby as they have lifts that bring you into the mall! So convenient!

Booked Hotel Jen to celebrate my husband birthday. Location: 5* as its superb near somerset mrt. Having a tough time to find hotel lobby but its just so near🤣🤣 after sorted out. Easy access to orchard gateway, orchard central and 313 somersetStaff Services: 5* , excellent service from all the staff from hotel Jen.I booked club king room hence 24hrs access club lounge , perfect unlimited coffee/teA/cookies refill! Stay hydrated and caffeine rushed Club king lounge with opened 24 hrs with different session buffet breakfast, brewling time in the afternoon (cakes and pastries), minor dinner buffet and alcoholic unlimited refill between 5.30-7.30pm awesome!!! Breakfast with limited choice but can still satisfy my tummy Overall , a good and decent stay which we will be coming back again for future celebration

Super convenient location: take the lobby level elevator down and you can end up at the entrance of the Somerset subway station, or the ground level where you can walk the mall, or take numerous buses that could all take you everywhere you want to go. Roof top pool is not super crowded and I could always find a cabana spot. Pool service is the same as other hotel services, very friendly, and they make great cocktails. The room has very comfortable beds and beddings. For some reason, although the room is small as all Singapore hotels are, we couldn't hear anybody walking in the hallway. Breakfast isn't too good of a value if you have a choice, but it's convenient.

Clean, modern, comfortable, nice, accessible/convenient. Service both in person, on the phone, front desk, pool deck, housekeeping were all excellent, just like what I'd expect from Shangri-la. I will definitely stay here again next time I'm in Singapore. If I'm in on-the-go traveler mode, this is the perfect spot. If more slow/chill/hangout vibe, the Shangri-la which is a farther drive out from the Orchard shopping area. Other notes - Food was great! Loved any local offerings like congee and sambal rice.

I didnt know this jewel was located in the middle of the city. It's on the 10th floor of The Orchardgateway. An oasis in a middle of a crowded Singapore. The place was clean and modern. Loved the rooms, the corridor was wide and 5 start ambience. Superior Rooms were big and fully equipped, mine came with twin beds. The cistern was also equipped with a device for you to wash up, like the ones you get in Japan. Loved it. Ask for city view if you can. You can see the whole city from your room. Get a better view from the roof top pool area. The infinity pool is on the 19th floor so is the gym. Overall a great stay in a beautiful city. Also the main shopping belt in just below the hotel on the street level.

I like this hotel. It is a very modern, well-maintained hotel, where the staff is very nice. I have been coming to Singapore since 1980 and have stayed at most of the high-end hotels throughout these years. I spent a week at this hotel and was very satisfied with my stay. The rooms are very well-designed. They are kept very clean and are very functional. Is this hotel perfect? No. But, what it has to offer is a truly nice lodging experience. Not only are the rooms very nice in this hotel but it has other features to offer its guests, as well. One of the most notable is the infinity pool on the 19th floor. This pool and the surrounding reclining seats and cabana lounges are a great place to kick back and take the edge off of the day. They also have a very nice bar next to the pool where you can enjoy a cocktail. The restaurants and the lounges in this hotel are also very good. The food is very well prepared and the chefs provide a great variety of choices for the guests to enjoy. As stated, is this hotel perfect? No. There are a few things that could be improved. Perhaps one of the most notable is that the staff here is very young. Though I am sure this hotel provides a great opportunity for the young people of Singapore, who hope to get into hotel management, but due to their youth they miss some of the understandings that a more seasoned staff member would possess. For example, this hotel tends to clean its rooms rather late in the day. Personally, I enjoy coming back to a clean room in the early afternoon to regroup. I arrived at about two o'clock on one of the first days I was staying here and my room had not been cleaned. I went downstairs to the main desk and asked when I could expect to have my room taken care of. They told me that it would happen immediately and that I would never have to worry about this happening again -- that they would make sure that my room was one of the first rooms that was taken care of throughout the rest of my stay. Great! This did not happen, however. Approximately four days later I again returned in the early afternoon, hoping to enjoy a made-up room, and found that they had not even gotten close to taking care of it yet. Again, I had to go to the main desk and ask when my room would be cleaned. This is certainly no big deal. But, I believe that a more seasoned staff would not make a promise to a guest that would not be kept. The other experience I had is when I asked a couple of questions about on-goings in Singapore and the staff had no idea what I was taking about. Though the were very nice in their answers, a more seasoned professional would have taken the time to find the answer for a guest. Other than that, this is a really nice hotel. It has a great location in Singapore and it will provide you with a great stay.

Outstanding location in Singapore, lots of local shopping... Hotel staff and accommodations were great, price is fair, kid friendly, outstanding staff and customer service.

This hotel is super well located, walking distance to major tourist attractions. From Changi airport, just catch bus 36 it will drop you across the street. Next door there is a huge mall and on the 4th floor they have a republic food court, which offers many yummy options to eat. There is also a Kaya place in the first floor of 313 mall next to the hotel, which offers amazing kaya toasts. The rooftop pool is awesome. Rooms are confortable and house keeping staff is the best of the bests. I will come back!

We recently stayed at Hotel Jen and we booked one regular room and one in the panoramic view room 1611. The room was fantastic, the perks that came along with the panoramic room was great. I love the location; close to the train station, mall, food (from hawker to fine dining). Breakfast buffet had good variety of food. Staff that attended to us were excellent. The only complain was the regular room that was booked for another member of our party, 1614. They tried to resolve it but it didn't quite work until the last night. Overall experience was wonderful and will stay again if I ever come back and it will be the panoramic view room again.

The best part of the hotel is its location - it is above the Somerset MRT station which makes exploring the island very easy. I stayed on the 11th floor, not much of a view but the room is clean, a good size for 2 and comes with most of the amenities including slippers and bottle water. They offer $30 a bag laundry service, however with taxes and services charges, it came to about $40 a bag which I still think it is pretty worth it considering we put a lot of clothes in there. I also held my wedding lunch at the Phoenix function room on the 19th floor. The function room has a good view of the city. The price for the event is reasonable and the food is good. I got positive comments regarding the food from my family and friends. The staff are friendly and is able to accommodate most of my requests. The only complain I have is they should have pitcher of drinks on the tables instead of asking the servers to bring the drinks each time.

Second time I stayed here. Located on Orchards Avenue, atop a large shopping and dining arcade, but absolutely quiet inside the hotel entrance, lobby and rooms. Clean, pretty modern rooms and amenities inside. Wonderfully heavy drapes and quiet, efficient a/c so you clean sleep off your jetlag while the sun blazes outside. The rooftop infinity pool and lounge area are great to relax and refresh. The iced water in the lobby is a wonderful consideration, and the breakfast buffet is enormously varied (even ice creams at 6 a.m.). Entrance and lobby staff are very friendly and helpful, and there's an ATM in the entrance. A double, twin-bed room was $220/night a week. I'll be back!

Pool and pool area great view Peter great staff. Good service. Very pleasant and professional. Lasagna was really tasty. Chef should add 2 more Lawyers noodles and ricotta and it would blow your socks off. Burger. For what they charge they shouldn't use frozen meat. I think it's a crime when restaurants come so close to being great with minor changes. This place could triple their business if they made just a minor changes. And would get nothing but compliments, staff in while hotel are spot on. Everything else was great. Staff gets 6 stars.

This place was amazing! Clean and large comfortable rooms.. wonderful people!! Mavis in the restaurant dining hall was the most kind and gracious host. She even offered to fix me a goodie bag for my long flight home.. I will definitely be back (bc of work) and will for sure book this place again.. Other things to note. Hotel Jen is located right by the bus and train.. there is also lots of shopping and food literally just as you get outside the elevator on the basement level... Breakfast at the hotel was free and was amazing! Lots of local food but also lots of not so local food..

Very lous buffet as the spread are limited. No hot items except kuek pie. Milo is very thin and the beef steak are so small that my children age 11 & 12 are very hungry during the lunch. There is a hair on the ice-cream. The waiter just took the ice-cream and don't even explain. The manager don't want to come to our table to listen to the feedback. Worse service and food not worth to pay for such buffet.

This is my second time staying here, usually one week each time I say. I decided to get my laundry done, they listed at $30 per bag of laundry so I stuffed a bunch of Laundry into a bag and it came back with appx $130 in charges, they apparently had itemized it without me knowing (apparently there's several sheets of paper) I asked if they could review/adjust it because that was just outrageous but they refused. On top of it, there seems to be some issues with mold or leakage. Several of my co workers had to ask to move rooms because of an odd smell. There was ionizers everywhere. I'm very disappointed in Hotel Jen since esp since they done care about repeat customers.

Just off the heart of Orchard Rd this recently refurbished hotel does what it does well. It is close to all the shopping you can handle, provides a generous breakfast buffet and most importantly clean, modern rooms with soft comfy beds and duvets. In typical Singapore style the rooms are compact. In fact if you want to squeeze in an extra single bed you will need an upgrade to a larger room. These come with extra large showers which seem rather pointless. They aren't set up to service disabled access and the shower head is too miserly to cover the shower space, so it will seem cold unless you are directly under the shower head. At least there is plenty of complimentary bottled "oxygenated water" provides in the bare bones mini-fridge. There is no stocked minibar which is good if you have little children. Singapore is hot year-round so make sure you top up a water bottle with crushed ice and water from the corridor dispensers - a life saver and environmentally smart too. As for the obligatory pool, Hotel Jen follows the trend and has put in an infinity pool that spans the rooftop. There is a large wading section at 0.5m deep and the rest is 1.2m. Don't try to dive. Unfortunately the infinity pool effect is spoilt by a large glass barrier but I guess that is necessary if you want to build the pool to the edge. Service is prompt and pleasant, with lots of hip young customer service agents at the Level 10 Lobby. There is no dedicated concierge - all the staff multitask which is efficient but can have issues. The only let down is the baggage counter on Level 1 which with only one staff member can easily be overwhelmed. Not a great thing especially when the security of your luggage is at risk.

Great, modern hotel right in the heart of Orchard Road. It's connected to the MRT station as well as the OrchardGateway shopping complex. Within walking distance to many other shopping and eating experiences. Our Superior Room w/ city view was on the 17th floor and had a great view which included the Marina Bay Sands. The room itself is very modern and included plenty of storage for a weeks stay, as well as many outlets for charging 110/220 V as well as USB. The aVision app they utilize on the TV is very user friendly and features many channels as well as your invoice information, room messages, etc. The linens and pillows are top notch and very comfy. The etched glass bathroom cubicle adds a modern touch and features modern fittings with an adjustable height shower head. If you are traveling across the city, it's easy to go downstairs to the MRT, or just hail a taxi from the 1/F lobby. Overall, we were impressed with the hotel staff, amenities, and our stay here. We look forward to visiting again. Cons: 1. No bell hop service to fetch your bags from the lobby, or from your room. 2. We were told that we would sign into the wifi using last name as a password, but in fact the wifi is just open with no protection. Bring your own security app(s).

Great location, with direct access to Orchard Central and Somerset MRT (B1). Great selection for buffet breakfast. Charging boxes for mobile devices was really innovative. Free use of bamboo bikes to tour the city was cool. Awesome view of the Singapore skyline at the 19th floor. Fast and free wifi. Free ice and water dispenser along the hallway. Vending machine along the hallway too.

hidden urban oasis baywatch @ jen! lovely city views and inexpensive drinks. definitely worth a good evening with bunch of friends.
