this hotel is actually 2 hotels now combined and while the ad claimed the rooms were recently refurbished, the wing we were in is very sad and badly in need of refurbishment (i stayed in this particular wing when it was the Excelsior 10 years ago and nothing has changed since)I booked at the Peninsula as i know both hotels and certainly would not pay the asking rental price of the Peninsula to stay at the Excelsior. I had rung the Peninsula prior to booking and asked if they were connected to the Excelsior yet. Their reply was if I wanted to stay at the Excelsior i would have to book with them, so you can imagine my surprise when i ended up in the Excelsior part of the Peninsula hotel.
room rate? very over-priced
service was fast
locality central
tourist friendly? no, not really geared for tourists

| "Stayed in the hotel for a wee, had ample services and facilities as I only had to sleep in it. Some noises during the night due to renovation. The keycard for the room and elevators was messed up most of the time (got stuck inside the elevator a few times). Excellent lcation as it's very near the train/bus/taxi stations in City Hall area. Breakfast was ok but the same everyday; some variety would be good. Had to pay 5dollar deposit for plug adapter (should be part of room as customers are usually travelers from abroad). No hotel transfers but cab to and from airport should be easy. For non-smokers, make sure you request for rooms on the non-smoking floors. Funan Mall is just next door so it was really convenient for last minute shopping. Highly recommended hotel for the price; no frills, just what's needed for a comfortable SG stay. " |

| "Stayed on the Excelsior side and was very impressed with the room. Very clean and spacious with nice views over the city and this was only a standard room. Excellent position - central for all the sights and the MRT. Good breakfast." |

| "The hotel rooms were a bit jaded and the reception staff were not terribly helpful, trying to get me to take a smoking room - but for the price and convenient location near City Hall MRT it would be hard to beat in Singapore. For a short stopover it was fine." |
