Hotels in Geylang, Singapore

The hotel is in a very good location – it’s about a 10-minute walk to the metro. However, there seems to be a red-light street in one of the nearby side streets (at least that’s how it was explained to us), which might be a bit disturbing for some guests. Our room was really small, making it difficult to open and spread out our suitcases. The bathroom was also very tiny – when taking a shower, the whole bathroom would get wet. For two girls, the small desk with a little space for getting ready felt rather basic. On the positive side, I definitely want to mention the staff: all of the employees were extremely friendly and helpful.

I recently stayed at this hotel and had a wonderful experience. The staff were incredibly helpful and attentive from the moment I arrived, always ready to assist with anything I needed. Their warm and professional service made my stay very comfortable and enjoyable. It’s also worth noting that the street where the hotel is located can feel quite quiet at night, with very few people around. Occasionally, I noticed individuals sleeping on the grassy areas nearby, which might make some guests feel uneasy if walking alone late in the evening.

Good location, near to mall which has affordable food at the food court (lower ground) and payment by card is acceptable, near to bus station and MRT station, near to highway exit. Good location for Muslims, has a lot of Halal restaurants nearby. One of the reasons I came back to this hotel is because they have the option for a smoking room, but unfortunately, I did not get one due to fully booked. The toilet is a bit dirty, especially on their shower curtain. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Free parking is available.

The hotel is clean and nearby have foods but during night time the fire alarm system was down and none of the staff explaining the situation and comforting guest, the emergency exit was locked which is the worst thing. Hopefully the hotel will improve their security system and management.

Everything was great about this hotel except the front desk. Understand there's meal time but should there be a replacement to ensure someone at the front desk? Anyway, we reached around 1-2pm and wanted to check if we can check in earlier but there was no one at the desk. Hence we sat on the lobby and waited until around 2pm. When we asked about early check in, somehow it felt like the staff wasn't very polite in his reply. That's fine, but what's not is when we came back around 2.45pm. Clearly the room was ready, the receptionist saw us but did not bother to tell us that. Only when another couple tried checking in early, that we know the rooms are ready. Other than that, I have no complaints. Oh 1 more thing, my gf felt the window blinds isn't very efficient and it still allowed sharp glare from the sun in along the sides and it affected her rest. Might want to change to a proper curtain to fully block off the sunlight. Overall would love to stay here again.

Nice place to stay, Clean and Friendly staff. The room is clean and comfortable to stay. Near bus stops. Minutes away to attractions. The downside is it is located in red district in geylang and many indian bystanders. Overall compared to other hotels in geylang, Ibis is the best and clean and had a comfortable stay

This hotel in Geylang was an absolute gem for a solo traveler! It's nearly 30% cheaper than other hotels in the area, offering incredible value for money. While the room wasn't huge, it was incredibly well-equipped. The bedding was clean and soft, the AC worked perfectly, and it was perfectly comfortable for a solo stay. The location is also fantastic. It's a 5-minute walk to the MRT station, making it super convenient to get to Marina Bay and Sentosa. Right downstairs, there are food stalls with endless choices like Hainanese chicken rice and satay skewers. If you get hungry late at night, you can just pop downstairs for a bite. The owner speaks Chinese and was incredibly friendly, recommending some fantastic local eateries that only true locals frequent. He even helped me call a taxi when I checked out. My entire stay was absolutely seamless. For solo travelers, this place is safe and worry-free. I'll definitely be staying here again on my next trip to Singapore!

🛏️ Hotel 81｜Budget Stay That Does the Job If you’re just looking for a place to sleep in Singapore that won’t burn a hole in your wallet, Hotel 81 is your best bet. It was the cheapest option I could find, and honestly, it gets the job done. The room was clean, comfortable, and had all the basics I needed. Big plus: my room had a window, which made a huge difference in making the space feel less claustrophobic. Don’t expect luxury — this is purely a functional stay. It’s not a place for lounging or extended stays, but if you just need a safe, air-conditioned room to crash in after a full day out, Hotel 81 delivers. Would definitely consider staying again for a short stopover.

We stay two nights here and they have 24 hours reception! We can easily request late check in, just send them email so that they can keep the room. Good location, near bus stops only less 5 minutes walk. From hotel to city center we use bus no 33 and vice versa. Room are clean and shower pressure is great! Toilet comes with bidet, yay! Staff are friendly, you can store your bag for couple hours after check out.

It was great, except for the poor soundproofing. You could hear people talking in the hallway, so those sensitive to noise might find it uncomfortable.
