D'HOTEL SINGAPORE: MY REVIEW

Planning the perfect weekend getaway for 2 in SINGAPORE? The D'Hotel Singapore managed by Ascott is a great hideaway. It's value for money and I highly recommend it. 

Here is our experience staying in this hotel:

ROOMS 
✅The standard room is very spacious, around 27 sq m. 
✅The room has all the basic amenities for a comfortable stay. They provide complete toiletries like shampoo, conditioner,  soap, shaver and shaving cream. They have coffee making facilities, a ref, an in-room safe and iron. 
✅ Their bed and pillows are very comfortable. Four pillows are provided in each room.
✅Water pressure is strong, although they do not have a bidet.
✅They have a pantry at the lobby where you can heat food in the microwave or oven toaster.
✅They also have a small gym. 

LOCATION 
✅The location is a short 30 min ride from the airport via taxi or grab. You can also opt to use the mrt from the airport. 
✅The location is near very good restaurants like the House of Peranakan Petit and Por Kee Eating House, Tiong Bahru bakery and near the hawker center, Tiong Bahru market.
✅The bus stop is a few steps away and the mrt station is just a short walk from the hotel

Overall, this hotel is value for money and very highly recommended. We will stay again at this hotel when we return to Singapore.

SINGAPORE: RECOMMENDED CHANGI AIRPORT TRANSFERS FOR BIG GROUPS

November 3, 2024

RECOMMENDED CHANGI AIRPORT TRANSFERS FOR BIG GROUPS 

Airport transfers for big groups is always a challenge. We decided to forego taking public transportation at Changi Airport Singapore because of our arrival time and location of our hotel, which included several transfers. Booking one grab car is not an option for our family of 6 because of luggage limits per car, even if all people will fit in it. We'll end up booking 2 grab cars which will amount to the same cost of pre-booking one vehicle for all 6 of us. So we decided to pre-book airport transfers for our family of 6.

For hassle free airport transfers at Changi Airport for big groups, we booked our airport transfers here: https://bit.ly/3NTvohW

In my experience, if you're arriving with a big group, it's best to book in advance for faster service. We booked this particular Vimo service through klook for 8 passengers with 8 pcs 24 inch luggage. We were picked up immediately at the arrival pickup area at Terminal 4. Service was seamless.

The great thing about booking at Klook is you actually know how many passengers and luggage will fit in the vehicle you booked. It avoids misunderstanding with the driver regarding how many people and luggage will be accommodated.

Do you have other suggestions for airport transfers for big groups? Please share in the comments section.




Cheapest Singapore SIM Review

Going to Singapore for the weekend? I found the CHEAPEST SIM CARD you can buy

Cheapest Singapore SIM: https://bit.ly/3C9KbTn

I found this to be the cheapest way to get data compared to activating Globe roaming or buying sim at lazada or shopee. 

My review: It is easy to pick up at the 24 hour stall at Changi airport, Terminals 1-4. You just present your passport and qr code for claiming. This sim is fast and very easy to install. Connection is seamless.

Do you have any other sim card options that's cheaper than this one? Please let me know in the comments section.

SINGAPORE: CHEAPEST AIRPORT TRANSPORT OPTION if you're landing at CHANGI AIRPORT at MIDNIGHT

SINGAPORE: CHEAPEST AIRPORT TRANSPORT OPTION if you're landing at CHANGI AIRPORT at MIDNIGHT

There are many reasons why Filipino passengers take late night flights to Singapore: 

1. To avoid taking leaves from work just to take the flight. 
- They can go to work during the day on a Friday, then take a late night flight to Singapore after work to spend the weekend there, then return early Monday morning to go to work. A lot of budget airlines allow you to do that. 

2. Red eye flights and late night flights are usually the cheapest flight. 

3. The earlier flight you booked was delayed. 

If you arrive at midnight, you have only 3 options because the MRT is closed by then and the last airport bus leaves the airport at 11pm. Operating hours of the MRT is from 530am to 12 midnight. 

These 3 options are:

1.Grab car

2. Klook pre-booked private airport transfers

3. Transport service at the ground transport concierge of the airport.


As you have seen in the above examples, the cheapest option is to  book Grab.
