The Warehouse is a wonderful boutique hotel. My wife and I spent nine nights at the Warehouse in connection with a visit with family in Singapore. We’ve come to really appreciate the benefits of staying in smaller hotels — more personalized service, more tranquil, easily accessible, less formal, no crowds, conventions or tour groups, etc. Granted, we stayed over a week, but the staff referred to us all week by name. and tripped over themselves to make sure we were happy. The hotel is located right on the Singapore River and we had a second floor loft room facing the river, which meant a pleasant view and absolute quiet. I am noise sensitive and have rarely stayed in an urban hotel room this quiet (including the air conditioning, which was imperceptible). The room was a generous size, with cathedral ceiling, and was nicely, if minimally, furnished. Not extravagant, but tasteful and comfortable. The bed was comfortable; the bathroom is compact and cleverly designed, though offers little privacy. Housekeeping was efficient and timely. Our room package included a daily order-from -the menu breakfast, at a price point very favorable compared to similar quality hotels. The modest size swimming pool is very refreshing on those hot, humid days and just long enough for lap swims (though not very tranquil for sun bathing, as it is located adjacent to a busy intersection). The hotel is ideal for runners, located as it is right on the river, which sports popular running trails on both sides. The hotel lobby is swank and features a popular bar. A few nits: ineffective overhead illumination in the room; insufficient drawer storage for a long stay; no fitness center. Overall, though, this is a terrific, comfortable high-end hotel in a historic building in an attractive location with lots of restaurants and bars nearby, and an easy walk to the main attractions in the downtown district. We recommend the Warehouse highly and would return without hesitation.
