Mandarin Oriental, Singapore

great location, terrific swimming pool area.

the staff seem to be learning on the job. We have to made the same request over and over again and nothing seems to register. For example, we book two rooms, one for our friend is paying for the airport limo transfer. I wrote before arriving that our friend who is staying on the club floor is paying for both trip to and from the airport. When we arrived at the hotel, we tell the concierge the same thing. At check out, the bill is still wrong and this is just one of many examples and we only stayed there for one night!!!

The door satff are excellent and the receptionist Sharon was very good indeed.

There are no smoking facilities in the hotel. It's a nice hotel but not great.

It s a business hotel.I stayed one night (Sat/Sun) at a very favorable weekend rate. Superb suite. Pity I couldn't enjoy the luxury longer. Breakfast on Sundays is a disaster. Buffet is very spread out i.e. long ways from one station to another, it is overcrowded (many Singaporeans stay just for this weekend night), long queues everywhere. Singaporeans are very inconsiderate and just elbow you out of the way. 44 S$++ is a bit high for this breakfast which is very average . When I remarked that I do not appreciate breakfast in a 'school canteen' set up, the matter was dealt with without hesitation. It was a very nice gesture.

No complaint as my complaint 'breakfast' was dealt with to my satisfaction.
