Charming Boutique Hotel in Katong

My sister and I spent a weekend at Hotel Indigo Singapore Katong to celebrate her birthday last July. I’ve been wanting to stay at this hotel for so long since it ticks all my checkboxes for my type of a good staycation-hotel. Firstly, there should be something new, unique, or aesthetically pleasing to look forward to in the hotel and Hotel Indigo delivered! It was the Peranakan heritage inspired interiors that really compelled me to book this hotel. I liked that the entrance & lobby is hidden behind the green wall. The common areas were all inviting as they exude warm ambiance and interesting furniture as think pieces. We stayed in a King Bed Standard Heritage View with Bath and the colours, tiles, textile choices, and furnishings in the room all coincided with the overall theme of the hotel. I really loved the mural in the room and the vanity counter is a win for me. Secondly, to be able to fully relax, a dip in the tub is a must! The bathtub is circular making it unique from all the other hotels. Armed with the bath bombs we bought, me and my sister definitely enjoyed each of our baths, before going to sleep. Third requirement would be a nice pool and satisfying dining options. Sadly, we didn’t get to do a night swim in the pool as we got back to the hotel too late after dinner. Still, the rooftop pool was stunning day and night. We ate dinner in their restaurant Baba Chews Bar and Eatery. The colonial exterior is just as pretty as the interiors of the restaurant. We ate modern Singaporean food, and it was tasty. A hiccup would be that there was a long wait for the food, we were informed beforehand though. Breakfast is also served here. You get to choose your main breakfast along with the choices in the buffet spread. After dinner, we roamed around the area as it was a different feel from where we lived in Singapore. Of course, we had to get ice cream for dessert while walking and taking pictures of the vicinity. Oh and the front office team gave a slice of cake for my sister’s birthday with a handwritten letter of their well wishes. The letter was a sweet gesture and the pandan cake was delicious! Bonus points for the nice staff. Will recommend this hotel to family and friends! Featured in the photos are: 1. Room 2. Bathtub & vanity counter 3. Seating area 4. View from the room 5.
