Easily accessible - I could go directly from airport with metro (few MRT-s very nearby). Also convenient to go to centre city from the hotel. Hotel itself located in Little India so lots of places to eat nearby or walk or go shopping. Not that expensive compared to prices in Singapore and Ok room, clean, had a good night sleep... More

They say you get what you pay for. This is certainly true for Hotel Madras. The hotel is cheap by Singaporean standards. It is clean. It is in the midst of Little India with lots of good eating and drinking places and shopping close by. The front-desk person (and that is all the staff we saw) is friendly and accomodating... More

Cosy room with big bed, aircon, tea/coffee making facilities, tv & wifi. Spotless bathroom. The staff were very friendly, helpful and accommodating. I left my luggage there for the day after checking out. About a 7 min walk to Farrer Park MRT station so Little India/Chinatown are accessible within minutes. Would recommend for a stopover in Singapore.

I had 24hours stopover in Singapore and randomly went into this place. It was satisfiably clean, cosy and good value for money. Hotel staff are quite flexible in the check in-out timings. Great central location.

...checked in for anbout 4 mins then left after realising hairs on pillows, single fluffy brown blankets, dirty stained walls, old cigarette stench.... Most fortunately i didn't have the cash to pay upfront (they don't accept cards for a stupid reason) I was able to check out without losing any money, just my time. Good points? Bathroom was clean.

This spartan hotel in Singapore gives you whatever was advertised: no more, no less. Rooms are basic but clean. Everything works (hot water, Internet). Breakfast was minimal, exactly as the website had stated, in a small, self-service room. The owners's dogs were around, but I love dogs, so this was no big deal. They were kind enough to extend my...

We booked a room for our family of four for a two day visit to Singapore. Even prior to check in, I was impressed with the promptness with which the manager responded to my emails. We had two rooms with an adjoining door. Clean and adequate, small bathroom with basic toiletries provided. Our flight came in at 7 a.m. And... More
