TRAVEL | SINGAPORE | The Royal Plaza on Scotts... Experience...

... one of the most important things to have in hand.... or one should have booked earlier prior to the arrival to a destination.... is a place to stay .. be it a simple lodging ... plush hotel .... friends/relatives' crib ... or wherever... as long as u have a decent place to stay ... and to store your belonging safely ...

.. with the advancement of the internet .. it is now a "breeze" to book a room via the net ... but one must be aware that ... peak seasons ... and very close to the destination.. one could experience a nightmare in booking a room ... the price could also be hiked ....

.. so once u get your ticket confirm ... book your hotel ASAP ....

... one can be spoiled for choices in making a choice in booking a room .... some prefer ... proximity .... one prefer comfortability ... some ... price... some doesn't really care .. as long as there is a place to stay ....

.... but .... if one prefer a dirt cheap hotel ... one should also be concerned of the hotel's safety rating .... so how can u know how good the hotel is .. if u have not been there before ....

... well... ask around... surely .. you've got someone who have been there ... or otherwise... u can just check on the net for ratings and comments ....


.. the reception at the Royal Plaza Hotel on Scotts .... the reception in any hotel is the very first place you go to everytime you walk into the hotel .... but not in this case.... why ...? .. I'll let you know in a bit ...

.. situated less than 5 minute walk from the ever bustling Orchard Road .... the hotel is the first 100% smoking free hotel in Singapore ...

... during a vacation in Singapore ..... and as the Airport taxi stop in front of the Royal Plaza on Scotts' main entrance ... the taxi door was opened by the hotel's staff and immediately ... to our amazement ... we were greeted by our Surname ..... !! WOW! .. ( how many hotel do such thing? .. name me one or two more ... )

.. what an amazing first impression .... not to be bothered with the luggages .. entering the pleasantly nice aromatic scent in the lobby ( it always smells that way every time you walk pass the lobby!) ... we were then ushered into the lift .... and straight to our room ....! .... everything was done in the comfort of the room ....

... so there's no need to fill in any form .. standing .. or what so ever by the reception desk ...

... see I told u so .... in fact ... checking out can also be done in the room ... but ... I just wanna meet up and greet the staff at the reception during checking out .. so I just walk there....

... everything was pleasant during the length of the stay .... and the good news for Muslim travelers ... the restaurant at the lobby i.e. Carousel .. is Halal certified by the Islamic Religious Council of Singapore .... and the food was great ! .....

.. and for those who loves shopping for branded goods .. such as LV .. Coach .. Dunhill ... Mont Blanc .. Gucci ... Le Sports Sac ... and such .... next door is the Duty Free boutique ....discounts for tourist....

... hmmm .. what else .. oh yea .... free mini bar ... the mineral water and soft drinks are replenish daily .... good news for those soft drink lovers... and good news for the " I-can't-stand-without-connecting-to-the-net" ... free Wi-Fi for the guest .....

.. hmmm... final say ... Royal Plaza on Scotts ... with their slogan of " What can we do for you" ... is totally recommended for your next stay ...
