Stayed 2 nights in Singapore at Hotel Bencoolen@Hong Kong Street. Location is good, not too far from Clark Quay MRT station and easy walking distance to both Clark Quay and Boat Quay. Hotel appears to have aged some since photos shown online. Room was clean but condition of room and common areas no longer new. See photo of Garden Patio as representative. (Some of the trellises missing from wall and overall, garden patio probably not as nice as it once was). Room was lower priced than some of the newer hotels in area, just not as nice. Coffee machine in lobby was good and included breakfast wasn't bad. Had intermittent issues with door lock. Sometimes it worked and sometimes it didn't. Perhaps batteries low. Reported to front desk. Attendant checked it out and said "it worked for them" so they didn't do further follow up. Was hoping to get "more than we paid for" but probably got "what we paid for".

There was a huge pillar in the room that meant you could only get in and out of one side - not good for a double or a premium room.

First off, the location is superb. Within walking distance to Chinatown, the beautiful Lau Pa Sat hawkers center, Gardens by the Bay and, of course, Marina Bay Sands. The hotel is also one block from the local bus line to the Orchard Road shopping area. So, a very convenient hotel. The hotel itself is in excellent condition. It having a small real estate footprint, it has a modest lobby where they serve the free buffet-style breakfast, but who needs a massive lobby to hang around it. The room was spacious, clean and perfectly functional. Lots of lighting options, blackout curtains, big TV and plenty of fast hot water in the shower. The Bencoolen is a great centrally located base for a trip to Singapore. I stayed two nights. The desk people were very polite and helpful, even though they were very busy at times. I did not use the pool.

If you're staying here for the Grand Prix, it's an ok walking distance to the track, Funan and Raffles City. The property is very tired and in-room facilities extremely limited. I'd call this a no frills accomodation. I stayed in the loft suite which in essence was tiny. Leaking shower that wouldn't drain properly, water came on and off whilst in the shower. Breakfast in the morning was very limited and not worth it, better to go for a walk to a nearby cafe or shopping centre.

Our room and bedding was very clean and clean towels and toiletries every day. The towels were grey rather than white. The hallway on our landing needed hovering when we arrived, and wasn’t done for three days. The gentleman who checked us in was not friendly at all. Breakfast was a free for all and not enough tables. We ended up just having toast it was easier. The daytime reception staff were very friendly and helpful with directions. But I am unsure how they were a four star!! We would not go back

The aircon wasn’t working in the hotel room when we checked in so we were shifted to a premier room which was more spacious. The bed was very comfortable and the room clean but the hairdryer didn’t work, there was only hot water coming out if the tap in the vanity basin and the shower nozzle pointed towards the shower door. A jug was provided in the room with tea and coffee but no milk. When I added fir milk the receptionist advised they didn’t supply milk. This was the same in the breakfast room, tea and coffee but no milk. The breakfast was geared towards the Asian market but limited options for european guests. There was one knife provided for the butter for toast and one for the jam which was very unhygienic in these Covid times. I asked for another knife and was given a plastic one which was good but there should have been knives provided, The hall areas needed vacuumed and the breakfast area was grimy. All in all it was a very disappointing stay. To pay nearly $300 for such a poor quality property is unacceptable. Please consider a partial refund for the poor quantity of this property.

This hotel definitely needs remodeling. Very old and moldy all over. My bath towel has mold all over. I mean that should have been thrown away. The edge was all black. The staff is nice and efficient. That’s the only thing good. Other than that, I don’t think I will come back again.

A great location. Short walk to Clarke Quay MRT to get the MRT to many attractions and the airport. Short walk to Clarke Quay, Boat Quay and Chinatown with many food options and things to explore. Staff were friendly. Rooms are a good size and clean. We would definitely stay here again.

The service is a bit slugging. During breakfast the garbage can was completely full and we can’t push down our used disposable plates into it. Also shortly after eating the breakfast my wife started to have diarrhea and we suspected there’s something wrong with the food.

The rooms are quite small, fine if you’re young and fit and just want to crash between outings but not comfortable for an older couple like us. Please note that in the standard double rooms you can only access the bed from one side! See photo. Also the free breakfast is what you expect in a cheap backpacker hostel, not a pricey hotel. It is very central which is a plus and the staff are helpful but I wouldn’t stay there again.

On arrival allocated Room 404 - No access to the bed from both sides and safe not working. Asked for room change due to mobility issues, and safe not working. Then allocated Room 608 - Smell of Damp. Water dripping from the ceiling / air con unit. Totally unhealthy environment, unable to open the window. Told no other rooms available. So the Receptionist arranged a transfer to their other Bencoolen Hotel. Receptionist was very helpful and understanding. Even though the Staff are helpful. Due to fabric and design / condition of the rooms I would not make a future booking.

This was a nice hotel for a budget price in Singapore. There is a free coffee machine, ice maker and cold water dispenser all day long plus an unadvertised free basic breakfast. Staff are friendly. The shower was hot and with plenty of flow. The location on HongKong Street is a bit noisy at night. I think maybe there are some night clubs nearby. It’s a fairly easy walk to Clark Quay or Chinatown station for the MRT.

Note: This hotel is commonly listed as having a hot tub. It does not! Overall, this hotel was alright. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the location was handy. My biggest complaints are: 1) It was advertised as having a hot tub, which it did not. We chose it specifically for that reason. 2) The hallways throughout the hotel were very dirty. They seemed as though they'd never been vacuumed before. 3) We had issues with hot water supply trying to have a bath (since there was no hot tub). 4) The supplied breakfast was horrible. The coffee is also bad. I recommend eating elsewhere. Positives: 1) The bathtub is very musical and makes a nice percussion instrument in the all-glass bathroom. Try it out if you go there. 2) They provide a filtered water machine in the lobby. 3) Staff is friendly and helpful.

Location is excellent as the hotel is surrounded by multiple transportation options. A lot of 7/11 stores nearby and there’s also a mall just across the main road. But what we really like about it is the cleanliness in the rooms and lobby and front desk. Not so much on some amenities like the garden terrace. Would have been a great dining area if the tables did not have any molds underneath the glass - we also had to wipe the surface to get rid off what looked like months of dust. At any rate, we decided to give it 5-stars since you can really rest in the rooms after a day of going or walking around Singapore. Quiet but central location; comfy beds and pillows; clean showers with hot running water; so many storage space; and daily house keeping too so everything was worth it at the end. Will definitely book here again.

Stayed here for a week whilst working remotely with my partner, and explored Singapore over a weekend and in the evenings. The hotel was in a great location close to Clarke Quay MRT, with all major sightseeing activities easily accessible. Our queen room had good WiFi connection, enabling us to work from the room. The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful, even allowing us to print flight documents on their printer. There is a microwave in the reception, available for all hotel guests to use. Room cleanliness could be improved, nonetheless fresh towels and bottled water were provided on a daily basis. Did not use the outdoor pool, but it looked rather small.
