lyf Funan Singapore

Great hotel in a top location at the Funan Shoppingcenter! The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making our stay very pleasant. Our room had a beautiful view overlooking the park, which was a real highlight. Perfectly located for exploring Singapore, with everything close by. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it.

The hotel is pretty convenient, given that it is located inside the mall connected to the MRT. To add, it was also quiet. I only stayed overnight but I enjoyed the space. All the staff I encountered were very nice and were able to answer my queries. Bathroom didn’t stink, but the shower-head just kept on turning that I had to use it by holding. I was provided as what was listed in the amenities. In terms of the bed and the layout, it’s quite neat and I liked it. Except for the fact that the sink is directly across the bed. I got surprised seeing my own reflection when I woke up 😂There are also shared spaces that I think are quite a nice touch to the hotel. I also had free breakfast and they have a selection of spreads. Overall, I think I would choose Lyf Funan the next time I return to Singapore. I could say I am very satisfied. Thank you for having me ❤️

The location is great, within walking distance of the main attractions. The room was small but clean, with everything you needed. The staff was engaging and helpful. I would not recommend booking with breakfast if you are not into Asian breakfast (limited Western food options). Also, the hotel is next to a fire station, so you might hear some noise in the room (in case you are sensitive and can’t use earplugs). Overall, recommended for a short stay in SG.

There's a trend now for co-living design, from serviced apartments to new condos to maximize what younger people can afford to live or when they travel or as digital nomads. As an older traveler, it might be a bit confusing as to the minimalist decor and lack of amenities (where's the TV? we have our ipads...but ask, there are shared amenities including a laundromat). Some co-living residences are poorly managed (I can name a few). However ASR's Lyf Funan steps up to the plate. I really appreciate minimalist settings that are well designed, and honestly Lyf Funan is one of the best designed spaces I've ever experienced. The touches are thoughtful, the hooks on the wall, the bright cheery design, the little chalkboard outside to enable conviviality. Every furnishing has been thoughtfully detailed eg beds, spaces for suitcases, etc. The beds are comfortable and the showers are great. And the location is unbeatable. There are hotels in malls, and there are hotels in malls with wonderful food provision. Funan Mall has excellent food outlets. It is close to the MRT, extremely walkable, very accessible. Highly recommended.

1 September 2025 I stayed one night at lyf Funan and found it modern, clean, and very convenient -- right above the mall (known as a tech hub) with food, shopping, and transport at your doorstep. The co-living concept gives the place a youthful, social energy that’s different from traditional hotels. The design of the room was compact and minimalistic. It’s important to note that lyf operates as a co-living concept rather than a typical serviced hotel. Many amenities are shared, and the hospitality style is more casual. As someone used to more serviced hotels, this took a little adjustment. For example, I wasn’t sure how guest services worked: there wasn’t a phone in the room, so I initially went downstairs for towels and toiletries set. Only later did I notice a shared phone in the pantry, though I wasn’t sure how it was meant to be used. It made me realise that part of the lyf experience is being a little more self-sufficient and open to communal spaces. Once I understood this, I could see the charm: it’s social, central, and comfortable for solo travelers. Guests just need to come with the right expectations: It’s not a luxury hotel, but a fresh, community-driven alternative.

My third time staying here. The location is perfect for visiting the major tourists spots, as well as the famous eating places. Staff were helpful and friendly. We got complimentary breakfast on weekdays too. The room was very well designed, pretty and clean. The only drawback is that the corner rooms can be a little noisy on Friday and Saturday nights. And the air con temperature is not easy to control. But, I will come again. It is almost perfect.

Small functional hotel right smack above Funan mall - super good location. However the rooms are also small and functional, no tv, just a bed and desk and 1-2 chairs , towels and hand towels. No other amenities. The sink is outside the toilet beside bed, and the bathroom w toilet bowl can get wet easily. Thankful for free bfast once you sign up as Ascott star member which is free. Bfast is fuss free but tastes really good! Love the congee, scrambled eggs, and bread options.

The location of this hotel is very good, accessible to the MRT and few malls around the area. One of a kind studio is quite spacious for one or two person. It is located next to the fire station, so maybe is not a good choice for light sleeper. Definitely will come back again for my next visit.

This place is very unique. It's clean . Funky decor. Definitely a modern style. The only things I was not happy with was NO TELEVISIONS!! Also it's cool you can do laundry ($8.00)but you also have to Iron down stairs in the laundry room. I would much rather do that from my room . ( with a T.V) the staff is friendly and helpful. There are lots of positives about staying there .
