The name Hotel G might sound familiar to some, and that\u2019s because they have hotels in many different locations, including San Francisco, Bangkok, Hong Kong and Shenzhen, with more slated to open in 2017. Hotel G Singapore is conveniently located at Middle Road with 308 rooms categorized into Good, Great and Greater.  I was lucky enough to stay a night in one of the Great rooms and it was a fantastic experience.<\/p>\n

Step inside the reception area of Hotel G and be wowed by the prompt service and smooth check-in!  For the weary traveller, there are plenty of seats around, including a huge wraparound sofa to lounge around while waiting for your turn to check in. At the same time, for the shopper eager to show their support for the Hotel G brand, they could also take a look at the Hotel G branded merchandise at the side, ranging from t-shirts and caps all the way to bathrobes.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Likewise, you need not worry about complicated check-in procedures. Just produce your name card and check-in would be done, quickly and efficiently! Now that’s <\/em>good service.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The room was smaller than I’d expected, but travellers need not worry. I was impressed by how the designers utilized the space and layout, allowing luggage to be stowed in a nook under the bed to avoid clutter.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Each room has dreamcatchers hung above the bed, with different designs for the three room types. It was nice to watch the patterns dance across the ceiling as the feathers fluttered around. I was told that you could have a good night’s sleep with pleasant dreams. I slept very well that night!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I did some exploring. The workplace had a big corkboard attached to the wall with information pinned onto it. I particularly liked that there was an FAQ-esque info sheet that informed guests of the checkout time, breakfast timing and other useful things to note.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

For foreign travellers, there\u2019s a handy smartphone that allows you to make calls and comes with guides and maps so that navigation around the city is easier. There\u2019s also free unlimited WiFi within the hotel, which I tested by uploading a whole bunch of Instagram stories \u2014 the network is actually pretty fast and <\/em>reliable. Awesome for all your Twitter and Facebook updates too!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The bathroom contains a small amenities kit with body soap, shampoo and conditioner provided by Australian brand METIS.  Great for ‘freshening up after a long day. My only tiny gripe was that toothbrushes weren\u2019t provided, something that the hotel might want to include in the future.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Apart from that, there was a safe to keep your valuables, a hairdryer, kettle and television. I was pleased with the inclusion of an ice bucket . Definitely a nice touch since there are ice machines available on each floor to make sure you have ice-cool drinks throughout your stay.<\/p>\n

For the sporty type, don’t fret! Though there’s no pool for a quick dip, there’s a small gym located at the third floor and it is pretty Instagrammable too. Work out with treadmills, cycling machines, and a weight machine along with dumbbells. There’s a punching bag, as well as a speed bag in the corner of the gym. What a well-equipped gym!<\/p>\n

If you are feeling peckish and adventurous, Hotel G is a short hop away from food and entertainment as it is conveniently located between Bugis and Dhoby Ghaut.<\/p>\n

However, if you are feeling a little lazy, there are two restaurants right under the hotel: Ginett and 25 Degrees Burger.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Early birds can feast on a delicious buffet breakfast provided by Ginett. I went with an empty stomach the next morning and was immensely satisfied. There were 4 stations: hot food station, live egg station, pastry station, as well as drinks, cold cuts and cheeses.<\/p>\n

I was most impressed with the egg station. You could have your omelette freshly made by a chef! My omelette was stuffed with mushrooms and ham. It was delicious, fluffy and savory. Yum!<\/p>\n

Dessert and pastry fans, rejoice. The pastry section had a good selection with croissants, pain au<\/em> chocolate<\/em> and other baked goods on display. If you\u2019re a cereal fan, fret not, for there is a wide range of cereals and milk available too to tickle your taste buds.<\/p>\n

Hotel G has everything the modern traveller needs: conveniently located in the city, comfortable rooms, delicious buffet breakfast and most of all, comfortable rooms. I would surely come back again!<\/p>\n\n\r\n \r\n Booking.com<\/a>\r\n<\/ins>
