Guest Reviews

• Donna (10/5): - We loved our room! It was spacious and had a beautiful view of the park. Because it was about to undergo renovations, the hotel was not crowded. Although we noticed a few areas that needed a little attention, it didn't detract from our enjoyment of the property. I hope the renovations do not destroy the ambience of the property.
• Xiaomin (10/5): - Enjoyed staying there.
• Fei (10/5): - Very nice and quiet location with a lot of landscaping areas in the middle of the city, what a beautiful oasis for visitors.
• James (10/5): Beautiful, quiet and in Singapore center. - The hotel is closing for a six month remodel. I can't wait to stay here again once it reopens.
• Brian (8/5): - Wonderful large rooms, nicely appointed. Access is 'interesting'. The hotel is located on a significant hill. Walking distance to the metro is perhaps 15 min. But virtually every route involves steps, a lot of steps. There are some ramps, but some extremely steep. If you have any mobility issues, care will need to be taken. There are some escalators (outdoors) but several were not working or shut down at night. A stay here involves strenuous calf exercises 😳
• Thomas (10/5): - Excellent spacious rooms and the hotel is located in the peaceful Fort Canning Park. Close to MRT station with easy access to main sites in the city.
• Adrienne (10/5): - Staff are excellent. Service is excellent. Beautiful grounds and park surrounding hotel. An oasis to escape to from busyness of Singapore which is just a short walk away.
• Nicola (8/5): - Based in fort canning park it is a very old building in a beautiful location. Some areas of the building are in need of attention to bring them up to a standard worthy of this beautiful place. A shortage of breakfast tea, and minimal amount of outside tables at breakfast could be improved. The bedrooms are quirky (I like quirky) a fabulous bath tub in the room but the toilet and shower with the sliding frosted door your only privacy also in the room, erm you need to be very close to whoever you’re sharing with. The swimming pools are fabulous a leisure one and a swimming one 25/30m perfect. The staff were fabulous really friendly and helpful . It just needs a bit of updating and modernising but retaining is heritage. I would stay there again.
• Jorald (10/5): - It was an old building but renovated well and very comfortable. overall a great stay.
• John Stephen (10/5): - The breakfast was not as good as we remembered.
• Tina (8/5): - A lovely place
• Maddie (8/5): Lovely hotel, great location, poor accessibility - Beautiful hotel in a great location between Orchard Road and the colonial district, both accessible on foot. Room was beautifully designed, especially the bathroom, however the lighting in the room wasn't great. Superb pool complex with cocktails on demand, which was marvellous! The biggest issue was accessibility. No thought has been put into accessibility for people that struggle with stairs, whether disabled or, as in my case, arriving on foot in luggage in 33ºC heat with 80% humidity. I have to say, this aspect of it was really poor and would put me off returning.
• Stuart (8/5): - Nice setting in park
• William (10/5): - Property is located in the beautiful Fort Canning Park. Rooms are large, comfortable and bathrooms are modern and spacious. It is a short walk to Clarke Quay which offers a variety of riverside dining options.
• MARCIA (10/5): Gorgeous hotel - What a beautiful room overlooking the park. Would stay here again in a heartbeat in the same room.
• Kelly (10/5): - Fabulous and priced right. Helpful staff.
• Eric (8/5): - I would have normally rated this hotel 5 stars but the problem is that it was bought by a middle eastern company in December, all the staff have had no choice to leave before renovations start in March 2025. As a result, less staff and lots of minor things that are not addressed or missing. It is a shame because it is a wonderful hotel, very quiet, only 10 minutes walk from 2 MRT stations. I just hope that the new owner will keep the original feelign and atmosphere of the hotel which might not be the case (seems like the new owner wants to turn the pool into a public pool).
• Steven (10/5): - Great location in Fort Canning Park Room was quite spacious and well appointed Staff were very attentive and friendly - service was exceptional 20 minute walk to Orchard St for shopping and Clarke Quay for restaurants and bars 15 minute walk to various MRT stations The two pools were great - the only thing missing was a pool bar. The only downside is that some parts of the hotel could do with a little attention but this is only a minore point.
• Diane (8/5): - Unique Historical Hotel in the middle of park-like area.
• george (10/5): Pleasant 2 night stay - Fantastic overall experience in term of property - building and surroundings (middle of a park), room, concierge service, etc - restaurant food good, copious and varied - service very slow and could be more attentive - overall very pleasant experience and would definitely return - apparently property is changing owners currently and future experience may be different from ours
• Caroline (6/5): - The colonial property was pleasant and well situated, but a little tired and hopefully the new management will spruce things up. Staff very nice but thin on the ground. The spa was not open, unfortunately. There was a minor problem with my room. There often wasn’t anyone at the bar to make coffee etc. And service was variable. The restaurant area was uninspiring. Overall, it was ok but I wouldn’t rave about it.
• John (10/5): - Everything about this stay was amazing
• John Stephen (10/5): - We were a little disappointed that the room didn't include bathrobes. Use of a room rather than the gym facilities for a shower before leaving for a late flight would have been preferable.
• Jaryl (10/5): - Great experience
• Brody (10/5): - Clean and nice rooms. Very quiet and good location being near Elizabeth quay. Not too far from Marina Bay. I walked there everyday of my trip for the Grand Prix which took 15 minutes to the nearest gate. One of the best hotels I’ve stayed at.
• Amanda (10/5): - HFC is a unique heritage property with the most beautiful garden and trees. It’s an oasis in the city. Be prepared to climb stairs!
• Thanuja S J (6/5): - Staff at reception were not warm+ friendly and welcoming at all.
• Michleen (8/5): - Great service, especially by Dawn in the restaurant at breakfast time. Extremely attentive and courteous.
• Nur Addina Binte (10/5): - It’s a beautiful hotel with colonial architecture. Located near a historical site, it was nice to visit the sites at Fort Canning Park. It is centrally located but quiet and away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Highly recommended!
• Pedro (6/5): - Nice enough, but not top tier, or trying to be
• CHEONG POH (10/5): - Lovely hotel, quiet, right at Fort Canning park. Booked a premium room, which was very comfortable. Liked the patio area with a desk where I could do my work. All staff was very polite. Hotel was quiet and private. Easy short walk to Dhoby Ghaut. Was also presented with a chocolate tart and fruit compote for my birthday. Delicious!
• Mark (10/5): - The staff are very good. Dana and her team produced excellent breakfasts. I loved the tranquiliy that comes with being located in such a lovely park.
• Mark (10/5): - Beautiful and tranquil setting. Breakfast was very good. Staff were efficient, confident, relaxed and friendly. I couldn't fault them.
• Suzanne (10/5): - Wonderful serene and peaceful hotel stay in Singapore.
• Verified traveler (6/5): Hotel check in - During my recent stay, I encountered an interesting approach to the check-in process at this hotel. Rather than having a traditional queue system or designated line, the staff relied on their observation skills to determine the order of guests. This unique method created a rather fascinating experience. Unfortunately, the absence of a clear queue left many of us in a state of confusion. It was quite the adventure trying to decipher when it was actually our turn, resulting in some awkward moments where guests inadvertently appeared to be cutting the line. While the check-in process certainly kept us on our toes, I sincerely hope the hotel considers implementing a more structured system in the future. A bit of clarity in this area could greatly enhance the overall guest experience.
• Belinda (10/5): - I loved that my stay was within the relaxing Fort Canning Park. The rooms were clean and generous and the pool was a great way to relax mid afternoon when the Singapore heat was at its peak. The food offered in the restaurant and for room service was some of the best I've had at a hotel. I highly recommend this hotel for its location and beautiful surrounds.
• Bodil (8/5): - It’s a unique hotel surrounded by history.
• Michael (10/5): - Great hotel.
• Alan (10/5): - This is a great heritage building with close proximity to the CBD with a lovely outlook. It had a great Luxury vibe and lovely staff
• David (8/5): Nice building. - An interesting building with quirky but spacious rooms. We liked the open view to park but others might feel it too exposed from bathroom area (there are very effective electric blinds!). Evening menu in the Salon restaurant was fine and good value for Singapore, Breakfast was ok but not a massive choice of fruit. Staff were all efficient but not particularly proactive in welcoming you or checking if you needed to know about the facilities or area. Overall we enjoyed our stay and as long as you like walking through the park, it’s an excellent quiet location between the busy areas leaving you all options (Marina, Quayside, Orchard Rd. City Hall) to explore on foot. There are metro stations in all Directions within 7-10 mins walk but because of the steps and paths it’s worth getting a cab on arrival if you have big cases.
• Eric (10/5): - Beautiful area
• Jackie (10/5): - Very nice hotel in a great location - close to mrt. Would recommend
• Mateusz (10/5): - Very polite staff, large and comfortable room. Overall it was a great stay, I’ll be back! Oh, and the location is really good too!
• Sarah (8/5): Nice stay in Singapore. - Lovely hotel. Not cheap but a really great location for exploring Singapore. Nice room with garden. The pool area was good. A few little niggles considering the price paid, but overall a good stay.
• Verified traveler (10/5): Lovely hotel away from the hustle - Smooth checkin and checkout. Room service was quick. The room was spacious and bed was comfortable.
• Baranikumar (10/5): - Property was good. Special thanks to the reception lady who had helped to make arrangements to decorate my room for a special occasion
• WENPENG (6/5): - The room facilities are not easy to use, not user-friendly enough, the curtains cannot completely block the light, and they do not meet 5 star. It fine for stay a while.
• Edinam (8/5): - Amazing service and great staff
• Verified traveler (4/5): Not a 5 star hotel - Poor maintenance and poor service. Intermittent tv connection and water supply (both hot and cold). No additional towels for pool. Pool is nice.
• YIFTACH (8/5): Convenient and calming Hotel - a rather calming environemnt within the FOrt Canning Park; rooms are spacy and convenient and stuff friendly mostly; the down points are slow service, our of walking distance from downtown and the food selection is rather modest;
• Raymond (8/5): - Quiet and best for a serene holiday
• Anthony (10/5): Worth every penny and more… Recommended… - I’ve stayed many times at this hidden gem. Exceptional value and key staff are fantastic…
• Karthik (6/5): - Hotel door opening is a challenge with the current system, aircon cooling is a problem- either too cold or need to switch off. The digital cooling equipment isn’t too easy to navigate
• Robyn (10/5): - Swimming pools were impressive, attendant friendly and efficient.
• Gaye (8/5): - Hotel Fort Canning is in a very convenient location. The reception staff were very polite and helpful. However, the attendant at b/f takes your egg order as you walk in and then your eggs are ready - or not as you like ie raw - at your table before you have chosen any other food such as juice or cereal or toast so that the egg dish sits there on the table getting very cold. Why do this procedure? Why not give the guests sometime to eat a little before taking the egg order? Very strange. The building is nearly 100 years old and to make the ensuite for each room, the balcony has been closed in with sheer glass so it's possible to be observed in the shower or on the toilet from outside. There are full length blinds but if they are down, then there is no view or natural light in the room. Some opaque glass at reasonable height would fix the problem on the outside glass as well as the glass b/w the bedroom and the ensuite. Not very well thought out. The hotel is within easy walk of Orchard Road.
• Lawrence (8/5): - It is a great place for quiet getaway and every is great except for the first day check-in where the young man at front desk has so poor customer service skills.
• Liis (6/5): - I've been coming to the Fort Canning a couple of times per year since 2017. It used to be a fabulous 5-star hotel but after the pandemic is definitely not one any longer. The staff is untrained and not solution oriented. The breakfast is shamefully bad in a culinary mecca like Singapore. Half of the equipment in the gym is broken. The koi fish live in deplorable conditions where they don't have the necessary depth of water, space, or shade. No towels by the poolside or in the gym – you have to request them from reception every single time. Air conditioning barely cools down the room when working at max capacity. Bar grossly overpriced. Whole building, inside and outside, is relatively run down. All in all, it seems that the hotel badly needs a management overhaul.
• Solange Clare (10/5): - The room was just like what’s depicted in the pictures - super excellent. Housekeeping was fantastic - super clean. Also enjoyed the fact that Fort Canning Park was just behind. Will be back again if I’m in Sg.
• David (8/5): - Nice old building that used to be a military HQ. Right in Ft Canning so great area. Rooms fine, bathrooms big, nice views of park. Gym great n nice pools
• Verified traveler (6/5): Feels more like a 4-star hotel than 5 - Comfortable bed, beautiful and spacious marble bathroom. But lobby and restaurant looks dated. Breakfast wasn’t great. Service was alright.
• michelle (10/5): - Awesome location to explore fort canning park. Had a lovely dinner in the restaurant too.
• Verified traveler (10/5): 산책하기 좋은 럭셔리한 호텔 - 경치가 좋은 공원 내에 위치하고 있어 산책하기 좋습니다. 공원 산책로를 따라 클락키와 싱가포르강까지 연결됩니다. 야외에 있는 수영장은 수심이 낮아 수영하기는 불편하지만 큰 무리는 없습니다. 조식은 종류가 많지 않지만 맛있습니다. 객실은 공원전망이었는데 아름답고 통창이라 좋았습니다. 다만 객실 샤워실 내 샤워기가 고장 나 있어 사용이 안되 들고 샤워해야 해서 불편했습니다.
• Alan (8/5): - Unique property in large urban park. If you like walking, this is good. In center of city, but if you don't like climbing in hot, humid weather, this is now for you. Hotel, like many businesses in Singapore now, is short-staffed. No porter/bellman at check-in. Most staff were very accommodating and warm.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Nice room condition. Nice place with less noise which made perfect weekend. Very recommended.
• Elizabeth (10/5): - Beautiful hotel nestled on a hill by Fort Canning park rich in history and luscious trees.
• derren (8/5): - Great property. Gym is quite a trek from the main hotel and the wifi logs you out every 12 hours which is frustrating for business travelers like me
• Steve (2/5): Give it a complete miss - Forget the average rating and avoid this place. Very run down, service poor, feels like a ghost town, pool with algae in it, staff probably trying but management has gone missing.
• Richard (8/5): - I like to stay at places with some history so i was really hoping this was going to be good. I can't complain too much because its a nice hotel but the breakfast was below average and the location was difficult to get to with heavy luggage. I should have listened to my wife and stayed at the marina sands. The front desk staff were very nice and helpful so i don't blame the staff. I can only say it's ok.
• Amanda (8/5): - Positive- lobster Mac & cheese and Chardonnay, nice clean swimming pool, comfortable bed, good location Negative - property needs some tlc (exterior painting & renovations definitively needed), check in staff seemed uninterested, breakfast buffet had almost nothing left at 10am but still charged full price, housekeeping inconsistent, walking to another building and going down to get pool towels is ridiculous
• Patricia (6/5): Nice and quiet stay - The stay was pleasant and staffs were friendly in attending to my requests except for a call on the second day where the request was overlooked. The bathtub stopper was unable to release the water. Not many power points to charge. Breakfast was good on day 2.
• Grace (8/5): - Its in the middle of the garden /greenery area so very cooling and relaxing. The bed though is no longer that comfy and soft
• Lynda (10/5): Hotel Fort Canning - #1 - The location of the Hotel Fort Canning is great. Having a hotel in a National Park with such beautiful grounds is even better! The hotel is beautiful. Our room was spacious. The staff were wonderful. Special Thank You to concierge "Jonathan." He always made us feel so welcome. We did not eat at the hotel. It is an easy and gorgeous walk through the park to the downtown. Don't miss the lighted arch walkway at night!
• Craig (6/5): Tired and lost hotel. - Tired hotel with little to recommend it other than the history. Staff seem disinterested and the place needs some good management and investment. No evening meet greet anymore, just an overpriced bar. Rooms need the windows cleaned and some basic maintenance. Access to hotel, if coming on MRT , is not obvious or good for anyone with mobility or health issues. This is not a 5 star hotel by a long way.
• Imran (8/5): - Not a bad hotel but not 5 star.
• Lynn (6/5): - Highly suggest the management to consider re-training their staff here. It's quite sad to see a beautiful hotel establishment to have staff on the grounds who provides services like that. The rooms were pretty run down and also I can see a lot of wear and tear here and there.
• Hiromi Wai Ling (10/5): - Hotel fort canning is absolutely amazing. The rooms are spacious and bathtub is out of this world. I visited the hotel with my girlfriends for staycay and were initially assigned a room with bathtub right in the middle of the room on top of pebbles without any partition nor privacy. It was pretty but not ideal for friends. Luckily, the staff were nice enough to prepare another room to change for us upon request. Overall, stay was fantastic
• jonathan (6/5): Out of the way - The hotel is rather dated and I thought that staying in a park would be nice but the in hotel restaurant closes pretty early and you have to navigate a maze of paths to go to external restaurants. To go to the gym you have to go outside and ride several elevators to locate the facilities. After going through the process once I decided to avoid it in the future. The room was great. I loved the high ceilings, elegant design etc. The lobby and the rest of the building certainly isn't up to date though. Grabbing a hotel can be difficult. Several cabs missed a turn into the park and cancelled on me after 10 minutes of waiting. Overall, it's an inconvenient location and the layout is awkward.
• Conor (10/5): - Very nice and comfortable stay - lovely traditional hotel and full of character.
• Venetia (8/5): - There are a few improvement areas including lighting in the room (a little too dim), wish the toiletries selection can be better especially with the shampoo and conditioner.
• Verified traveler (10/5): Comfortable room - Impressed by how clean the large room was. That said, hotel kept strictly to the check in time i.e. started handing out keys only at 3pm (and my key wasn't configured right and didn't work). Room was comfortable, loved the Nespresso machine and bath tub with city view. The toilet bowl is right next to the window so guests need to choose between enjoying the view and accidentally flashing the smokers below..but that's what we signed up for ya (online photos are obvious). Lastly the TV could be upgraded to a smarter TV with streaming services and/or screen share options.
• Brandon Gee (6/5): - Check in staff are gruff and don’t provide any information about the property.
• Mandeep (10/5): Great!! - This was a good hotel, although the location was slightly off the main plaza on the hill near fort canning (we had slightly long walk to the MRT). Other than that, this was a great hotel!
• Louie (2/5): - Terrible character and abhorrent customer service. I would completely steer clear of this establishment.
• Mike (6/5): - My poor experience started when I attempted to book directly with the hotel. Despite an automatic receipt of my email they never responded. I ended booking via Expedia which cost me a few hundred dollars more due to the delay in not using Expedia at the start. Upon arrival after 9pm our group of five (3 rooms) had many bags and there was nobody at all at baggage services located at the entrance. After we had dealt with the bags a "bellboy" of sorts was seen but showed little interest. I'm unsure if he was on the hotel payroll anyway due to his unprofessional dress. Things got worse when we tried to check-in. The trainee receptionist who was on his own could not find our booking and it took around 20 mins to sort out. By this time there was a queue behind us, none of whom seemed very happy at their subsequent late check-ins. Despite paying weeks ago for 3 identical rooms close to each other we were given 2 close to each other and another much smaller room with a different view. My wife & I took the "inferior" room which was tired, dusty and had a broken toilet seat. Having just left a superb 5* hotel in Thailand, this was a real downer. I complained the next morning and the duty manager moved us next to our adult children in the same type of room. He lacked any kind of apathy and he and his staff gave an uncaring attitude. My family nicknamed HFC, Hotel Fort CANNOT. Despite it's beautiful facade I would not recommend this hotel. In essence it's Mutton dressed as Lamb.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Ok decent place to stay. But tried calling in the morning to ask for early check in, no one picked up the phone despite trying many times and at different time. Had to go down to ask in person and they said no. Haha.. could have been a call really.
• Verified traveler (4/5): Service needs to be worked on - 5 star hotel, 1 star service. Staff are either rude or uninterested. Terrible, terrible experience. Enjoyed my stays here previously, but the service has since slipped tremendously.
• MAZLIN (10/5): Restful, Comfortable Stay - Another relaxing stay here. Love my deluxe room and the deep-soaking tub. Comfy bed. Love the surrounding greenery. I had a restful time.
• Mel (8/5): - First impressions were pleasing. Havi g stayed for 6 nights, many issues were identified with the room. - Román blinds let in a lot of light. - Maintenance of the room was poor - took 4 visits to reception to get the batteries for the safe replaced (the first 3x occasions, they didn't mention that maintenance don't have access to the room without my presence). This does not make sense, as the room is made up while we were out. The bath plug mechanism didn't work. The wardrobes didn't close properly, causing the lights in the wardrobe to remain on at night. There were other items too. - The room has electronically operated lights, A/C and blinds (i.e. supposedly upmarket), but no USB charging ports, which is a basic requirement for present day. - The room's fire detection lights are so bright that they interrupted our sleep. There were other smaller problematic items.
• rafick (10/5): - all
• Steven (6/5): - Charming older building with large rooms. My room had a problem with the hot water in the shower. The first day was my fault as I had the handle set wrong. Once the maintenance person showed me the correct orientation I had hot water once. After the one time I never even got to luke warm even after waiting for 10 minutes for the water to run.
• Chad (10/5): Great location - The location of this hotel is amazing! You are walking distance to a mall for food and to public transportation. The room was spacious and clean. We did have to wait awhile to check in which was frustrating. We were told to sit and wait to be called but then people would walk in and be helped right away. We absolutely loved the location. Even though there is uphill walking on the way back it wasn’t difficult. You are close to the museum as well! For the location alone I recommend this hotel
• Scott (6/5): - Have stayed at Hotel Fort Canning previously and really enjoyed it. This time not so much. The property has not been maintained well - the upholstery on the chair in our room was torn, visible dust and cobwebs, lots of paint on the building has cracked and flaked off, area around pool is quite tired with pieces falling off steps, tiles missing from pool, and canvas covers on day beds stained a mossy green. Also disappointed with the quality of food and drinks at the restaurant and bar. There were a lot of events occurring this time we stayed which is absolutely fine for a hotel but the separation between hotel guests wasn't there. I was squeezing past conference attendees to get towels for the pool (in swimsuit) and felt like I walked through a wedding a few times. Awkward for me and not great for paying conference/wedding guests. Plus sides are it is is quiet, in a beautiful setting, and the rooms as are well appointed and cosy. Anyway, standards and quality have slipped here. All of these things are fine and acceptable at a lower standard of hotel but that's not what Hotel Fort Canning is pitched at, or charges for. Probably wouldn't stay here again as a result.
• Colin (4/5): poor - Poor condition of building and mostly hopeless staff
• Peter (10/5): Room in the park - Great hotel location in the park, away from noise and hustle - but close to transport. Love the long happy hours 🍺🍷 Very comfotable, clean rooms and great pools.
• Verified traveler (6/5): Service Not Up To Expectation - Hotel reluctant to give extra boxes of facial tissue
• susan (10/5): - This is a beautiful resort, with very specious and comfortable rooms. We loved the location and the park.
• Jacqueline (10/5): - The historical connections and the surrounding gardens and park.
• Michael (10/5): - Historic presence but modern style and amenities. Add to that an attentive staff and it was my best Singapore stay to date.
• Sidney (6/5): - Hotel is looking tired in areas as it appears they have not kept up maintenance. Service was poor, other than some individuals who were great. Have stayed there several times in the past and it is today not at the same standard it was some years ago.
• Verified traveler (6/5): Nice rooms, poor breakfast. - Our room was very nice - generous size, comfortable bed, high ceilings, large bathroom. The location is good - Surrounded by a beautiful park setting. Very quiet and a perfect place to relax. This property has a lot going for it. Unfortunately, the morning/day reception desk service at this hotel is well below standard. We felt like unwelcome guests at check in. The buffet breakfast in this hotel at a cost of $57pp for 2ppl was of extremely poor quality with limited options. When providing feedback to the reception desk, no compensation was offered. Overall - Higher quality 4 & 5 star hotels are available Singapore at a similar price.
