Stayed in PR for 2 nights in April. Room was very clean (we were even comfortable letting our baby crawl around throughout the room) and large for the style of hotel.

Breakfast (which was included in our rate) is fantastic, with a buffet catering to a wide variety of western and eastern tastes.

The hotel is also well located (Farrer Road MRT is across the street and Lavender MRT is about a 10 minute walk in the opposite direction). We were also pleasantly suprised to discover we could walk to the hotel (about 15 min with bags) from Lavender Bus terminus, which is where over land coaches to Malaysia (serving Melaka for example) stop.

In terms of standard business ammenities it is slightly lacking (the cost of internet is really high for example). Staff were very friendly but not always great at getting things done (having to call repeatedly over a 2hr period to get the alarm clock turned off in the vacant room next door on a Sunday morning was annoying!) For location and price though this is an excellent stay.

I've visited Singapore many times over the past few years and have watched hotel prices rise at an alarming rate.

I now search high and low for good value hotels, and that's exactly what I found at the Park Royal on Kitchener Road.

I booked this hotel for an overnight stay via the hotelclub booking site. We paid US $126 for a double room inclusive of all taxes and breakfast for two.

We were given a quiet room at the end of the hall on the 14th floor, which was completely non-smoking (yea!). Our room was fresh, clean and inviting. It had a comfortable king sized bed, a desk with comfy lounge chair, a safe, mini bar/fridge, powerful air conditioning, two bathrobes and plenty of space.

I loved the lighting - bright lights over the sink and mirror in the bathroom, plenty of lamps and soft lighting in the bedroom. There was a floor lamp, desk lamp, lights under the bed side tables and individually controlled reading lights attached to the bed.

The bathroom was modern and spacious with a shower over the tub and ample shelf space.

This hotel is located right next door to chaotic Mustafa Center, a 24 hour shopping complex that seems to be busy round the clock. It's also right across the street from an MRT station, so it couldn't be more conveniently located.

All one need do is walk out the door to find Indian food, but we chose the restaurant in the basement of the hotel - Jewel of India - excellent choice - inexpensive and really good ($12 nett each for dinner buffet).

The hotel breakfast was excellent with a wide array of hot and cold food options.

The staff was friendly and helpful and allowed us to check out at 2 pm at no extra charge.

I was really impressed with this hotel and won't hesitate to stay here again.

We stayed at this hotel for the past 2 weeks. I have mostly positive things to say about our stay!!! Our room was lovely and clean and cleaned daily by housekeeping. We had a lovely fruit basket in our room on arrival. The Porters and Concierge were very friendly and helpful to us. We had our breakfast included in our stay so that was a wonderful start to each day. The spice brasserie breakfast catered to everyones tastes and needs!! I found the food to be plentiful and delightful. The danish pastries were delish!! I think because we had 2 weeks there, we got to know some of the staff, so we were greeted and treated very well.
I loved the location as i am not keen on being in the city area. Having the Mustafa centre just a 1 minute walk away was great for whenever we needed anything...and i mean anything!!! This place is the biggest shop i have ever seen and i managed to get lost in there many times! There is also many Hawker centres within a 2 minute walk, so we ate at them a lot and never payed more than $10SING for our 2 meals.
The hotel is a busy one, so sometimes waiting for an elevator at peak times was a pain, but i am a patient person, so i just chatted to others who were also waiting.
The pool and gym area is just beautiful. Very refreshing after a day out sightseeing.

The MRT is so close you can see it from the hotel. Staff are also ready to call a cab for you if required.

All in all, i found the Parkroyal a great place to stay!!!

This is quie a nice place, and good value. The room was a pleasent surprise at this price.
- The room I stayed in was newly refurbished.
- Very comfy king size bed (pretty firm but good),
- New LCD TV on the wall with many channels (most in Chinese)
- In this climate you need good aircon, and the aircon in this room was nice and cold.
- Didn't eat in the restaurant, but I did have room service breakfast, the full american for $Sing22. Pretty good - and good value. Will try the breakfast buffet next time.
- The hotel is right next door to a famous 24 hour department store - you just have to see this place !!!
- There area is almost entirely Indian, which is great for food variety. Appears to be quite a safe area.

On the negative side:
- The area is not really near orchard road or downtowb singapore - so everywhere is a bit of hike. It's not really in town.
- The lifts were older, and provided an unimpressive slow service.
- There is no parking outside the front door - so it is very hard to have a colleague pick you up. The security guys are very agressive.
- The Bell hops are also quite agressive in taking your bags/whether you want them too or not. Really really agressive.
