Set in its own immaculately maintained large private gardens, with verdant tropical plants, waterfalls, natural pools, everything about the hotel is impressive; from the design of the vast, but welcoming, lobby to the cleanliness and attentive service: even down to the very helpful (and ever-present) doormen in traditional dress.
Our package, in a Garden Wing room, included complimentary fruit, wine and hand-made chocolates to greet us in the spacious and tastefully designed room which had an impressive city view and a balcony large enough for a cocktail party! Like the rest of the hotel the room exuded quiet elegance and attention to detail. Also included was complimentary buffet breakfast in the hotel's "The Line" restaurant - the excellent quality of food and choice was phenomenal with the service swift and superb. We also enjoyed a magnificent afternoon tea of numerous delicate courses in "The Rose Veranda" which, for me, included a Pavé Steak (the best I have ever tasted) cooked to succulent perfection.
The large swimming pool (with lifeguards), set in the gardens adjacent to the hotel, was surrounded by more than enough sunloungers and parasols for all, with fresh towels, suntan lotion, cold flannels and even occasionally water melon on offer. Opening from 06:00 to 20:00 we often enjoyed an early morning dip before breakfast. The poolside food and drink service was also very attentive and efficient.
To sum up, our stay was memorable for all the best reasons and is one we are keen to repeat. I can't recommend the hotel highly enough and have joined the Shangri-La Circle loyalty scheme in anticipation of returning. So thank you to all at the Shangri-La, Singapore since the hotel certainly lives up to its name!Show More
