Wanted to give myself a break so booked a room to relax over the weekend. I remember my stay in Dorsett HK and it was fine. I checked in and got an upgrade and was initially quite pleased.

The room was neat and clean. The staff were friendly. However, the conditions of the room were very disappointing!

WiFi - Going on and off
Bathtub - There’s a bathtub but the tap attached has got no hot water
Toilet seat - Cannot stay open and it felt like you need to ‘carry’ something when you sit down
Toilet pump - Not strong. (And this is Singapore)
Aircon - Need 2-3 hours to be cool
Towel - Old and tattered. Although no weird smell, but the condition is bad
Bed/Pillow - Not in good condition

All in all, it’s definitely NOT WORTH THE PRICE!

This hotel is only 10 years old and there’re older hotels with better conditions that I’ve stayed. What happened? I thought they just had a makeover??

Everything showed that it’s under maintenance! I felt like I’ve been ‘transported’ to some small rundown town in a 3rd world country! And this is Singapore! For a fact, I can find a boutique/budget hotel with better conditions and pay lesser.

This is supposed to be a 4-star hotel, I think the status needs to be re-evaluated. It absolutely feels more like a 3-star!

Also, the breakfast itself cost SGD49! If you look at the cafe, you’ll not pay for it.

The upgraded room I had cost over SGD320. Like I said, one can easily find a better option with this price.
