"Can you recommend us a cheap hotel in Singapore?"
That is one of the most frequent question I get in my Facebook, Instagram and here on the blog. With all honesty, I only know that there are budget-friendly hotels around. As for recommendation, I have not stayed in any of those hotels before so I can't really recommend one.
Since I get that question way too often, I decided to come up with this post which I hope in one way or another will be of help to those planning to visit Singapore and prefers to stay in cheap hotels.

Travelling can be a bit expensive. So thanks very much for sharing these hotels! They will be helpful!
ReplyDeleteI get similar questions Che, but I am too lazy to research so I just refer them to the internet and read reviews as well. This is a very helpful post for those who plan to visit there
ReplyDeleteI've never been to Singapore. Four years ago we bought 3 round trip tickets to Malaysia and SG and wasted it. My daughter got sick but I think I wanted to stay in Manila more. I thought going to SG would entails more budget esp with the hotels. I wish I learned about budget hotels sooner. Might have taken that flight out!
ReplyDeleteIt's nice of you to at least give out information about pricing in hotels in that place. I would say it would help a lot those people who are seeking for a better price and a good hotel at the same time.
ReplyDeletethis is a very timely read. Me and my friends were planning to visit Singapore and is looking for a good place to stay. Thanks for sharing this we'll consider the place. Looks like it's so cool to stay.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the info, sis! We'll keep these hotels in mind if and when we visit Singapore.
ReplyDeleteI have never been to Singapore sis but my husband has been there quite a few times. Thanks for sharing this useful info.
