21 Carpenter

總的來説很滿意 文化遺留的用心之作 從步入門的那一刻便感到驚喜 要説細節最見匠心 這家酒店的細節值得我看了又看 與一眾豪華酒店的標準化配套不同 這是一家有温度的“公寓” 是的 我更願意稱之為公寓 因為像家 . 建築外形巧妙利用斜面製造了“新舊交替”視覺效果 實際是完全獨立的新舊建築 交界處有種別有洞天的感覺 套內面積不大 追求豪奢的客人可能會感到失望 但使用下來 處處考慮得當而周到 不多不少剛剛好 如果入住的是老房子的部份 便能看到原始留下的老地磚 帶着使用痕跡卻又歷久彌新般存在 . 設施：4.5 插座略不夠，餘下很好 服務：5 對歷史感興趣的人可以詢問前台，接待人員介紹很熱情 交通：5 十分便利，克拉碼頭幾步之遙 . ps：樓下酒吧會有點吵，在意的可以提前溝通房間朝向，我當時玩的挺累了沒受影響。

Many hotels in Singapore are a bit disappointing especially compared to other cities in Asia, so I tend to hop around and try different hotels. In contrast, 21 Carpenter did not disappoint. First off it's not directly part of a big hotel chain with boring rooms, it's part of Design Hotels which can also be booked via Marriott so it's not entirely separate from large loyalty programs either. I was proactively upgraded as Bonvoy Ambassador Elite to a nice suite with balcony upon check-in. I really liked the suite, good quality hardware and very comfortable. The advantage of Design Hotels is that they are usually interesting and not cookie-cutter, like this one. I can recommend this hotel and I would not hesitate to return.

This is a new 10 month old boutique hotel under the marriott group and as a bonvoy ambassador member, i just wanted to try it Located at Clarke Quay near chinatown, the location is central. There is no bellboy and the lobby is small, signs of things to come. During check in, there was no one at the front desk and luckily, he appeared a few minutes later. Also did not acknowledge my ambassador status and claimed to upgrade me though i booked the suite. Also got a lower floor, and the view is not great The suite is small and not well designed, so my impression of the “famed” WOHA architect dimmed. The tv in the living is the smallest i’ve seen in hotels built in the last 10 years. The suite is also not suitable for more than 1 person, with no space for 2 large luggages The bathroom is also laughingly tiny with 1 sink. They literally have a pigeonhole for 2 towels only, not more. The towel was also not clean and had a stain. They do have a sink cabinet for toiletries The bedroom is another joke with a smallish bed and only space for the wardrobe door to open Wrote a seperate review about breakfast and restaurant Back to our favourite hotels in Singapore it looks like
