Purple Taste: One Night Staycation at Hotel G and Dinner & Breakfast at 25 Degrees Burger, Wine and Liqour Bar

What was the experience staying at Hotel G? Read on to find out! The stay was in late Nov 2020 and before the mad rush using the voucher. Managed to get a good deal from Agoda where the stay was for about $110 per night with breakfast in a Good Queen Room.

Booking was a breeze and the hotel will send a reminder via Agoda/email for the slot to check-in. Mine was allocated for 2pm to 3pm.

Lobby was small and there was a queue (still manageable) for guests checking in as well as checking out.

Liked that there are adequate staff on hand to guide the guests. I was handed the Health Declaration Checklist form to fill-up but it was kind of a challenge due to the dim lightings and small fonts on the hardcopy. Age has certainly caught up!

The check-in process took about half hour and was allocated a room at Level 15. Not bad.

here we go

Good Queen Room 11 m²/118 ft²

Hotel G room are known to be small and compact, so it was not surprisingly. The room felt cosy and the music had already started immediately when guest enters the room. The workdesk is smallish and it was crowded once I placed my laptop on it.

Queen bed was on an elevated platform and for vertically-challenged ones like me, have to be careful not to bump my knees most of the time.

nice view of MBS

mugs and kettle

yes, it was dusty

boxed water

Overall, there are dust spots in the room but other areas cleanliness are ok.

thank you for providing the Care Pack!

toiletries from Australian brand Metis

bathroom

I see what you did

The bathing area and the toilet bowl is separated by a shower curtain. I think this is my first time seeing a shower curtain in a hotel in Singapore. Have to try my best to avoid the shower curtain from sticking to my skin because the space is really really tight! Alas, the water will still splatter onto the toilet bowl area so best to push the floor mat abit further away from the outside of the shower area. I didn't so ended up with a very wet floor mat.

There is no fridge in the room, so get your cold drinks downstairs from Ginett or 25 Degrees, or the 7-eleven from across the street.

Dinner that night was at 25 Degrees Burger, Wine and Liquor Bar as Ginett was fully booked. If you're there before 7pm, there's a 1-for-1 Beer and Bites promo. Hence, we had beer and some bar bites as appetiser. Beer fills us up pretty quickly.

Kronenbourg 1664 Blanc (front) Asahi Black (back) @$19 (1 pint)

Tater Tots Nachos @$8

Onion Rings @$5

But of course, we can't leave without having the famed burgers. Friend ordered #4 while I had the #1. Okay, Number Four is yellowfin tuna, with spicy aioli. But, we were surprised when it arrived. The colour of the patty was unexpectedly greenish! It tasted of crisp outer and dense patty. Unable to discern if it tasted like fish (because am conditioned to think that fish burger ought to taste like fillet-o-fish). It tasted abit like those meatless patty.

Number Four @$14

good 'ol Number One @$14

looking delicious

Number One has beef patty, gorgonzola, bacon and thousand island. Ordered it medium rare and its center came out a bit more rare than expected but didn't mind it because the burger was shared by two.

medium rare

My jeans seams were straining after the meal, so a walk outside to digest is a necessity.

night view

Didnt stay too long outside since there was work to be done that night.

Morning came by rather quickly the next day.

good morning

witty

As breakfast was provided, we headed down to 25 Degrees again. Better be there by 830am if you'd like a seat indoors.

breakfast menu

I had the American Breakfast while friend opted for the Eggs Special. Loved it that the staff brings you the fruits bowl and croissant the moment you sat down.
