With their motto "What can we do for you?" it is no wonder that guests at Royal Plaza on Scotts feel cherished.
Designed as a business hotel, attention to detail is very high and the staff can't do more to help you. Despite it's size (511 rooms), the hotel maintains a boutique feel, with staff greeting you by name. The rooms are luxurious yet un-fussy, and the lobby, restaurant and bar all offer a 5* feel. We stayed in a club deluxe room, which featured a fabulous bathroom, complete with a huge window over the bath into the main bedroom. This club deluxe room would be perfectly adequate for a honeymoon, and offers access to the club lounge, so don't feel that you need to go for a suite.
The hotel has undergone a number of name changes and ownership changes over the past few years, and as such remains undiscovered by many travellers. We found the current manager to be very forward-thinking; all of the rooms have free high-speed internet access (most Singapore hotels charge $30SGD / £10 per day), free mini bar in each room, a free welcome cocktail, and bowls of fruit throughout the hotel.
The hotel's Carousel Restaurant features international cuisine, and it is clear that their standards are exceptionally high with the usual Singaporean extensive buffet, and food being freshly prepared to order by skilled chefs.
Situated at the north end of the main shopping district of Orchard Road and a two minute walk to the nearest MRT station, this hotel is very well located for shopping.
