One Night Only Staycation @ Hotel InterContinental Singapore Middle Road (Bugis)

Decided to check out this hotel, finally. It was a one-night only staycay and main reason for doing so, was because my friends were doing Andaz. Got one reasonably priced for its Deluxe King Room from Agoda and without breakfast.

Couldn't do an early check-in as I was busy with work. Went to the hotel at about 2.45pm, and queued at the lobby for about 10 minutes as all 3 counters at the reception were busy. Staff was reservedly courteous and efficient. I got my room at Level 9 and because the guests infront of me had already received their instructions on how to locate the lift to the rooms, so not an issue. 

But a funny anecdote of while I was queuing, there was one lady who arrived rather hurriedly at the counter and informed that she would like to extend her stay for one more night. Hmm, means must be really comfortable staying here then!

I loved the space I'm getting! It has an old school elegant comfy vibe and thankfully, cleanliness was well maintained.

thank you Li Rui

The room provides TWG tea, coffee beans (grounded), french press, bottled water, kettle, wine glasses, mini fridge (empty) and tea cups.

wine glasses

If you ask me, I'd very much prefers a Nespresso machine in the room please. Instant and tasty. The grounded coffee bean was lovely to the palate too and easy to make using the French Press but cleaning up, was a messy chore.

Take note that there's no wine opener in the room, hence you'll need to request from concierge if you need one.

lovely smell

large tub to soak in

super spacious bathroom

One cool thing about the bathroom here, is the sound system. You could connect it to the main sound system and whatever that you are playing on the TV, you can hear the same in the bathroom. There's even a Spotify playlist on the TV menu. Nice!

The room is generally quiet, but the pillows were too soft. Stacked two then it was too high. Hahaa!

Its location was rather convenient. Head on down to Bugis Junction for a spot of grocery shopping, or walk over to Duo Galleria or Liang Seah Street for plenty of eateries and drinking places.
