We have stayed at the Marina mandarin in March with my husband, siblings and parents. It is indeed centrally located and accessible. Staff were friendly, but the personal touch is obviously lacking. No mention of names when guests are greeted, that is if you were actually greeted. The rooms were fine, nothing special. However had to call maintenance as lights were not working in 2 of the 3 rooms that we have. The TV in the room of my parents were snowy in reception upon our arrival till our departure. Small little things like a cracked cotton buds holder, dust in the light fixtures in the room and in the public areas, wet bathmat was not replaced, amenties like toilettries are cheaply packaged etc. Worst thing is on the 2nd night,my parents ordered room service, shortly before 9pm. They were called and were advised that they don't have the hainese chicken that they ordered. For a hotel of this caliber, belonging to the Leading Hotels in the World group, running out of food as early as 9pm is just unacceptable.
On a good note, they have the best breakfast buffet not only on the choices of food but the presentation as well. Having the birds singing in the morning in the lobby area was also a very nice touch.
We will stay with them again, as it is a value for money and the location is a great plus.

| "Excellent hotel in a great location, close to the underground station at city hall and to the waterfront. Shops every where ! Only problem was that in room 902 we found the pianist kept us awake until the early hours !!
You must visit Raffles for the unlimited Bollinger Brunch in the Billiard Room. It's worth every penny and the Bollinger is free flowing !! EXcellent service at the hotel pool and a great hotel overall." |

| "WE stayed on the way to Australia and back.
Our rooms were far superior on our first visit.
We had booked similar on the way back ie a double and twin adjoined but just got two twin rooms not adjoined..and much smaller.
Request rooms overlooking the pool as they are good." |
