Guest Reviews
- David (10/5): Far East Plaza - Check in & out was very easy. The residence was spacious and had all the mod cons we needed. The residence was very well located on the corner of Orchard Road & Scott’s Road the heart of the shopping district. It is also located within walking distance of Orchard MRT.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - We loved the location, The room was a good size however was very tired looking and the beds incredibly hard. The pool area was fantastic. A freshen up of the rooms and beds would make our review better. Would come back.
- Kim S (8/5): Good location - Good location. Housekeeping staff was efficient and helpful
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Central location, not far from everything. Everything you need which you can get at the shop down stair.
- Mimma (8/5): - Location of this property is amazing, so close to Orchard Rd and all it has to offer. We booked a 2 bedroom apartment, but where upgraded to a 3 bedroom, 2 bathrooms. Loads of space for all the family, kitchen and dining facilities meant we could have our own breakfasts.
- Tai (10/5): - Abit run down but it was suffice fpr what we needed for our family. Staff vedy friendly
- Verified traveler (6/5): Not as expected - Old hotel but the photos look very new. Apartments need to renovated.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Close to everything: train station, supermarket, shopping centres and down stair of property got food court.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Everything was good, the best thing was cooperation from staff
- Verified traveler (6/5): - The staff were friendly and rooms were cleaned regularly but the apartment was tired and the kitchen needs a makeover. The location is great 👍
- Joe (8/5): - The 3 bedroom family apartment is very spacious and includes two bathrooms and a kitchen which was great. It's location is excellent with 5 levels of shops below, including a variety of cheap places to eat, a 711 store, KFC, Dunkin Donuts. There is a also supermarket close-by and Orchard Rd and the ION Centre are less than a 5 minute walk away. Staff were friendly and most helpful. On the not so good side, the hotel decor is a little dated. The kitchen bench had many ants every day. We were unable to cook properly in the kitchen as there was no fry pan or wok, just pots suitable for boiling things. Overall we felt the hotel was value for money.
- Paul (8/5): Excellent for a family stay - Excellent location and value. The building is definitely dated and a bit tired (especially bathrooms) but honestly it cannot be beat in terms of value for money due to it’s location & space. We have a toddler and the playground, pool, living space, and having laundry & cooking facilities were fantastic for our week in Singapore.
Easy access to the local shopping and food of Orchard Rd, and also easy access to all the public transport to everywhere else in Singapore.
- ImeldaSj (10/5): - location is good. staffs are friendly and helpful. I got upgraded which is excellent. the room is old but clean
- Maria (10/5): - The location is excellent, everything is walking distance, shopping, mrt, restaurants and having a mall connected to the property made it easier to grab a bite even with bad weather. You do not need to go out of the building.
The building is older but very clean. Susana was outstanding and provided tips on where to go. Awesome service. The only thing is there is no exhaust in the bathroom although there is a window that is slightly opened.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Location of the property and its amenities were perfect for our young family. Management were very friendly and accommodating for us.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - There was nothing to dislike everything was at its best.
- noel (10/5): Great apartment - Great location. Apartment has everything you need. Highly recommend. Anniversary gift from management unexpected and very thoughtful.
- Nitin (8/5): Great location - Great location. Right in the heart of orchard road with plenty of bars restaurants shopping malls and train station within walking distance. Housekeeping limited (three times a week only. Friendly staff.
- SJ (8/5): - An older building but very well maintained. There were some issues initially (door wouldn’t lock, leak in the toilet), most likely due to the age of the building but they were quickly addressed by the excellent staff.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Location to Orchard Road is fantastic with plenty of food options near by. Hotel itself is a little dated and difficult to find the entrance. Some rooms could do with updating
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Excellent location near Orchard road and MRT station.
- Nancy (10/5): Spacious and comfortable stay - We had a very pleasant and comfortable stay at Far East Plaza. We were travelling as a big family group with 4 adults and 3 children. The apartments are very spacious so we didn’t feel like we were on top of each other. I noticed when we booked a lot of reviews mentioned ants. I was apprehensive but when we arrived my brother (who we were visiting) mentioned to be careful to never leave food out as Singapore ants are very very good at finding food! Apparently it’s a problem when staying in Singapore and not a problem at Far East Plaza. Overall, we loved the location of the apartment as it’s right in the centre of Orchard. It’s very easily accessible to numerous food courts so you’ll never go hungry.
- Jodie (10/5): Wonderful Family Stay - These apartments are perfect for a family stay. Located close to Orchard Road and other shopping areas (the residences are located adjoining a shopping mall which has some great eateries and shops) the apartment we had allocated to us was lovely. We were upgraded to a 3 bedroom property which was enormous, well appointed with full kitchen, lounge area and two bathrooms, all of which were very clean. You do need to keep in mind these are serviced residences, so they are not serviced daily nor come with the usual restock of toiletries and the like. However we found the servicing more than adequate and the domestic staff very helpful when we requested items such as additional tea towels. I had read reviews that some of the apartments required an update, but I feel this is based on personal taste. We were very hapy with our accommodation. The office staff were delightful and helpful in recommending places to shop and dine, and activities to do. They extended our checkout time on the last day until quite late knowing we had an evening flight. We would highly recommend Far East for many reasons. It may not suit some as it's not hotel accommodation, but if you are seeking a larger space, self-catering (including washing facilities which was a definite bonus in the warm weather) plentiful wifi (important with teens) and ideal location, then this is perfect!!
- Verified traveler (10/5): A pleasant stay - Good location, close to transport.
Lots of shopping centre around.
Close to everything.
Hotel staff is very friendly and professional.
Room is big and clean; washing machine works well.
Will definitely book here when visit Singapore.
- Kiran (10/5): - It was clean and tidy. The staff was very polite and professional. They were very considerate as I was travelling with my parents and they upgraded my room from 2 bedroom to a 3 bedroom apartment at the same cost. Location is the biggest advantage. You are near to all forms of public transports. You will love the night life. In all you get the best service for the amount you pay. The only thing missing is a good gym.
- Chew Kian (8/5): For People who loves Shopping and Foods - We like the location - easy reach to many things, especially in the night. The Star Rating will be more like 3.5 Star hotels. Our booking was up graded with no extra costs, which is great and suits our family.
- John S (10/5): - Stayed for 8 days with my family in a 2 Bedroom unit. Room had been recently renovated and was very clean. Staff was responsive to our needs.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Family Unit close to Orchard Road - My family stayed in the Far East Plaza Residence for our first overseas holiday and we all really enjoyed it. The renovated two bedroom unit was well appointed, clean and surprisingly quiet with a great pool for kids. All located in Scotts Rd just off the famous Orchard Rd. The building is looking a bit old but the rooms are being renovated and everything worked fine. Great air con in every room.
- Lawrence G (8/5): Family Holiday Singapore - We found the apartments we rented for 10 days clean and comfortable for a family holiday. It was well located with very good supermarket close by and Orchard MRT & buses either just outside or a short walk.
Facilities enabled us to cook a few meals - great to eat in when family didn't want to eat out.
Staff very friendly and helpful.
The reception area is at the rear of the building near the car park so some of our drivers had some difficulty finding it to pick us up - be very clear when you book you car or get the local (security) staff do it for you.
I'd stay there again.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Very Central - We were greeted and welcomed well. Our rooms were ready and aircon going after our long trip. The pool was the highlight. 7am-10pm are great hours for the warm humid climate, and always attended.
The decor is dated but comfortable and great for families. Kitchen was adequate for simple cooking and the staff were very helpful and attentive. Close to all the city attractions meant we could walk to many amazing restaurants and retails outlets. Supermarket in Scotts Square meant we were moments from picking up any necessary items.
- Jimmy Lim (10/5): Far East Apartment in Singapore - Hotel is in good location near Orchard Road. Food court conveniently located right on the first floor. The lobby security personnel were helpful and friendly. They greet you and you feel welcomed. Room was comfortable and beds were clean. Appliances were clean and in good condition. Air conditioning unit was powerful in the rooms and hall. Quiet and private. Worth the money and would stay there anytime.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Location great but Old +++ - Allowed to check in early, staff very helpful.
The room was very small (2 bedroom unit)- paint peeling from ceilings, smelt musty, very old decor.
Quite a few thing not working well- but excellent response from management. E.g. Cloths washer didnt work- replaced in about 10min!
Area is central- however shops under building a bit on the seedy side.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Cleanliness and house-keeping standards left a bit to be desired
- Victoria (10/5): Fabulous location, staff and facilities - We booked a 2 bed appartment for 9 days, we arrived a little early but had the warmest greeting from Suzanne and the security team.
We were checked in quickly and shown to our appartment.
The appartment was very spacious and imacculately clean. A little welcome basket was left which was a nice unexpected surprise. You also got use of a handy phone for the duration of your stay which gave you data and free local calls which was amazing as you could call a cab or get directions.
The appartment is located on the top of the Far East plaza shopping mall, next door to the Hyatt, and a very short walk to Orchard Road and the ION centre. I can safely say the location is second to none, and a fabulous place to base yourself to get easy access to the MRT and therefore the rest of the island.
We had a beautiful view from the balcony out over the skyline, and we could keep an eye on the swimming pool.
The facilities that the appartment offered were excellent, gym, squash, tennis, swimming pool etc.
The pool opening hours were excellent, the staff were polite, and the pool itself had a wonderful outlook. It was lovely swimming up and down taking in the skyline.
Overall I would struggle to find any fault with the appartment or staff and my only suggestion for any improvement would be to put a map on hotels.com of how to access the hotel through the plaza as this was a little confusing upon our arrival (however thank you to Suzanne as after a quick call we were given directions.)
- Verified traveler (6/5): Not to our expectations - Location is great and many choices of food but unit Apartment has many things to be complaints (tv channels not working, smoke detectors suddenly activated with no reasons and happened twice during our stays,smelly bed sheets,old furnitures and sofa cover has many dirty stains,cooking stove not well function,cleaning service only came every two days). Above all,management hospitality is good and nice people. Most probably not going to return to this Residence for my future visit (unless they offer big discount rate)
- Dean (8/5): Nice and central - a little hard to find though - Fantastic city - great accommodation option in the heat of the shopping district
- Destino (10/5): Nice place for families to stay. - Great place with room for families if they need separate rooms, kitchen and washing facilities. Good location at the back of the Far East Plaza shops which is quiet but also convenient for food and shopping in the one place.
- FamilyTraveller (8/5): Great family accomodation in excellent location - Excellent location next to all the Orchard road shops. Spacious sized apartment great for a family. We were upgraded to a corner superior suite which was a bonus. Kitchen and laundry facilities in the room were very handy. Staff were extremely helpful especially Suzana who made our stay a great experience! We would go back just based on her service alone!
- eitzik (10/5): This excellent apartment hotel close to center - Thank you for the kind and dedicated service you gave us, it was very pleasant and fun to stay in a suite that did not lack anything thank you for everything.
- Mark (8/5): Convenient location. - Serviced apartments are a short walk to Orchard road. Staff are friendly with the apartment cleaned every 2 days. Our apartment was comfortable and spacious, however, when repairs and maintenance have been done previously, the level of workmanship could have been better done. The apartment is above a shopping complex with easy access to the Main Street via the shopping complex. The building has it’s own pool and a splash pool for youngsters, along with a well equipped gym and snooker room. Overall we enjoyed our 2 week stay.
- Laurie (10/5): Great hotel Great Location - We were upgraded to a two bathroom suite and a large corner apartment , thank you management.
The apartment was always keep very clean by housekeeping and the staff in the complex were extremely friendly. The location of the apartments are the best in Singapore, we have been to Singapore 6 times and Orchard road/ Scotts road is definitely the prime position . Orchard MRT is 300 meters away and all the shops are within walking distance.
- Martin (8/5): CONVENIENCE !!!!! - Reasonable rate for a start. Very central to major shopping outlets. When the weather was bad, we could still browse around in Far East Shopping Centre without having to go out in the open - it was joined to the serviced appts. The underground link at Tangs, which is only a very short walk away, less than 100 metres, was fantastic and it connected so many shopping precincts and eateries.
- Jim (10/5): Singapore Holiday - Excellent venue to stay at for holiday. Very good service and facilities great. Staff very good and always ready to assist and offers offers of what to do and where to go in Singapore. Cleaninig and service to room was excellemt. Must mention in particular the manager Rener Kay and also his asstant who gave us a very good intro into Singapore when we arrived, and also upgraded us to the 18th floor which of course had better views and more space.
Very good deals and also very close to Orchard rd and transport to all parts of Singapore for sight seeing shopping and of course all the many different places to dine.
- Vivian (8/5): Nice location - Super handy location and Great stuff. We had a nice holiday and feel very pleasant to stay here.
- Singapore Fans (10/5): Best location in town, brilliant people, perfect - Friendliest most proficient hotel team I have ever encountered. Stunning location with super oversized apartment. Sweeping views and just the ultimate location. Singapores best kept secret, we loved every minute of our two week stay.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Close to MRT and shops - Stay April 2017. We had 15 family members staying at he apartments. we had all booked 2 bedroom apartments and were all upgraded to 3 bedroom aparts. Very spacious, we had an updated kitchen but none of the other rooms did. Overall the stay was good, location to food, shopping and transport was fantastic. The pool and gym look very old with missing tiles in the pool and no shade, most of the outdoor chairs and lounges were broken. Could not fit more than 3 people in the gym at any one time. Lobby and garden area seem underutilized, would have been great to have a cafe or coffee bar in the lobby to have in the garden. Only 15 minute taxi to Santosa Island.
- Shirl (10/5): Nice and clean and close to everything - Had a fantastic stay here and would come again. Staff very friendly, lots of things to see and do.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Great location. - The Far East Plaza is in a great location. The shops below the residences are so handy.
- Nicole (10/5): Central location with lots of space for a family - The hotel was situated with walking distance to the Orchard MRT, a FairPrice grocery store, and Shaw cinemas (all on Scotts Road). Directly outside the apartments were a taxi stand and bus stop.
Spacious two bedrooms and kitchen area made it really easy to live with a family of four for seven nights. Staff were only too happy to recommend food places (Italian and prata just downstairs!) and places to visit. Were given a mobile phone for internet and ticket purchasing while staying here. Kids loved swimming in the pool every day. Could not have been happier with location and size of place with the price we paid.
- Bernard (8/5): Great location - Hotel is abit old now and needs some good refurbishment but otherwise clean. Location is the best right near orchard rd. We were upgraded to a 3 bedroom apartment which was a very nice surprise and the welcome pack in room was greatly appreciated after arriving at 1am. The phone with free calls and data was also great for all the special deals around Singapore. Staff and security were always friendly and willing to help. We had a great time.
- Mickey (8/5): Great lovation. - Great location. Hotel needs update. Room is spacious with kitchenette. Its great for family. Staff are excellent and very helpful welcoming guests. Location is right inbthe center of the orchard shopping center, restaurants and MRT station. Very conviennce to everything.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Rooms are definitely due for upgrade. They are beginning with this.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Very good convenient location to the Orchard MRT. Good supermarket and a bakery nearby in Scotts Plaza.
Some wine glasses and a coffee plunger would have been nice and these may probably have been provided if asked for
- EJM (6/5): Good location - Hotel was in a great location, just a short walk to Orchard Road. The shopping centre underneath was very handy particularly with the 7/11 and numerous restaurants. We were fortunate to be upgraded to a 3 bedroom apartment which was lovely. The staff were wonderful, very friendly and welcoming. The airconditioning worked very well, as did the washing machine/dryer. The pool was nice and most of the time we had it to ourselves. The downsides were that the bed in the master bedroom was very uncomfortable with a rock hard mattress. The housekeeping was not great - when we arrived we noticed a packet of tissues under the chair in the living room and over the two weeks we were there it did not move which made us wonder about how thoroughly the rooms were being cleaned. Also there was a considerable amount of dust on top of the dresser in the living room and the showers weren't cleaned properly during our stay. Aside from that we enjoyed our stay.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Fantastic hotel. Home away from home. - Family of four with teenagers. Spacious room. Central to everything, shops , trains, bus, taxis. Would definitely recommend and stay again.
Pool gym and friendly staff . What more could you ask for.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Great central location. - Excellent location just off Orchard Road close to the MRT and major shopping centres. Large 3 bedroom unit which was well equipped and very spacious. A free mobile was provided for our stay and this gave us free access to the Internet and tourist information. Excellent family accommodation with good kitchen if you want to selt cater-- a good supermarket is easily accessed in a neighbouring plaza.
- Verified traveler (8/5): excellent value for money - Great location, close to Orchard Rd, endless food and shopping options. Close to MRT station. Excellent value for money, works well for a family. Although the facilities are a little dated, the room was clean and comfortable.
- Emerentius (10/5): Little big gem - Great place to stay, very close to the MRT and Orchid road.
The staff are very friendly and helpful.
There is a great kitchen, so you don't have to go out for dinner everyday.
There was a washing machine and dryer, so no problems with the washing.
Will stay there again when I go back to Singapore
- Venkata Krishna Kumar (10/5): wonderful FEP - Our stay is made comfortable by the promptness of service during late hours and weekends which is good for an serviced apartment, also gave us a free phone which has unlimited data and free international calls which serverd our purpose very well
- Mel (8/5): Nice hotel close to the MRT - Hotel was 500m to the Orchard MRT, 2 supermarkets and Orchard Road around the corner. Fantastic place to base yourself to see Singapore
- Kong-Archer (4/5): Pictures on Internet can be deceiving - Arriving at past midnight, you will expect to check into a nice apartment and not walk yourself into a shock. The apartment assigned to us (4 Adults) on the 13 floor. It was absolutely filthy. The carpet was stain. The shower rail falls off if not for the plaster tape holding it together. Hairs left on the dining table. The paint on the walls was a disaster. Bathrooms were small. There are no place in the second shower to put your things. The overall size for a two bedroom is laughable and a total shame. We immediately went out and found another hotel and wanted to check out but they contacted the management and asked that a second chance to given to them to right the situation. They transferred us to another unit on the 8 floor. It was better than the one when we arrived but still a far cry from what we have been shown on the Internet. The only thing that makes up for our 8 nights stay is the food and shopping in Singapore. After this experience we will booked two adjoining rooms in a good hotel in Orchard Road.
- lynda (8/5): great location - Stayed at the Far East Plaza Residenced for 3 weeks.Only had 1 problem which was dealt with quickly and efficiently.Very good transport
- Juliet (8/5): Comfortable accomodation in a great location - This serviced apartment was perfect for our needs as a family of 3 adults and 2 kids. We had plenty of room and it met all of our needs comfortably. The only negative was there was a nest of pigeons outside the kitchen window. The location was perfect - 5 minutes to MRT, shopping all around and food galore. We will definitely put it on the top of our list for our next visit to Singapore.
- Stuart (10/5): A pleasant surprise in a hidden gem! - From the moment we arrived, we felt like our 'base' was home! The facilities were exceptional - the pool was incredibly clean and we loved the late opening hours.
We were greeted by a welcome pack of food supplies which were much needed.
We used the gym also and valued the quiet areas on level 7.
The size of the apartment meant we could spread out and when we needed to rest, the noise from the TV didn't interfere - which was really helpful.
Staff were helpful and when we needed the bathroom cleaned due to sickness - they came within 5 minutes. Concierge were attentive and conscientious regarding security.
Whilst there are obvious signs of wear and tear in certain areas - it did not detract from the overall benefits. We would stay there again and definitely recommend especially for families.
We needed cooking and laundry facilities and we were surprised to find an umbrella also.
We also appreciated the fact we were so close to grocery and chemist supplies.
Overall impressed and we thank all those concerned.
- Belinda (8/5): plenty of space, very convenient location - PLenty of room for a family of 4. close to supermarket and MRT, safe. room serviced several times a week
- Karen (8/5): Well located and appointed apartment - From the moment of check in the staff were very helpful and accommodating. All that we requested was responded to quickly, efficiently and always with a smile. The apartment was well appointed and perfect for our family of 4 to spread out and relax when not sightseeing. The hotel facilities were many, varied and well maintained. The location is perfect to access all transport options to sight see or for the shopping and dining experiences of Orchard Rd.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Close to the best shopping in Singapore - The hotel offered good value for the daily rate - it was clean, very spacious, close to shopping and central to most activities in Singapore. The hotel could use a refurb - while it was clean, it was very tired looking.
- Carolyn (10/5): 5 stars ! perfect accomodation for families. - Stay was fabulous!! will come back again :)
- Susan (8/5): A very comfortable 10 night stay - My adult daughter and I had a wonderful 10 night stay at Far East Plaza Residences in a two bedroom, two bathroom apartment which was spacious and clean but in need of renovation.
The kitchen was well equipped and the washing machine was very useful. The bed was comfortable with good quality linen and the air conditioning worked well throughout.
The shower was over the bath in the master bathroom, which I found a little difficult, however the water was always hot and the pressure strong and even. The towels were thick and fluffy.
The complimentary WIFI worked well for the most part, however on the one day when we could not connect, a technician arrived promptly and fixed it within minutes.
We found the location to be excellent with just a 5 minute walk to Orchard MRT station and Orchard Road shopping and food.
The staff, without exception, was cheerful and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble and assistance was provided promptly.
- Verified traveler (4/5): Good service but bad room condition - Good staff service but the room condition was very old. Shower curtain rail fell a couple of times (though it was rectified quickly and eventually by the responsive maintenance staff) and the shower tap spouted yellowish dirty water for a while. Overall room was also very old with strong musty smell from kitchen. Carpet also looks very dirty. Some dusts here and there. Certainly needs a renovation upgrade.
- quen131 (8/5): it was a place to sleep - the room was sort of clean , it obviously has rising damp issue overdue for a make over , the tennis court and squash court could be used unless you bought your own ball and bat
- Warren (10/5): Nice Hotel close to the MRT and Orchard Rd - Far East Plaza Residences is a home away from home. It was very clean and conveniently close to the MRT and Orchard Rd shops. The staff went out of their way for us, especially when they realised our flight back home was well after check out, and we had 2 kids, we were told to stay until it was time to go, even though they had someone using our room soon after we had to leave. We were made very comfortable by all the staff, especially the guest executives and the cleaning staff. Highly recommend!
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Great location close to Orchard MRT. PerFect for families
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Far East Plaza Residences staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The apartment was massive and facilities good. A bit dated but clean and an amazing location.
- Lynne (8/5): Nice & comfortable accommodation, friendly staff - My two daughters aged 14 & 16 nearly 17, and I stayed at Far East Plaza Apartments from 28/9/15 to 5/10/15. What helpful, friendly and lovely staff they have there. Suzana in particular helped us feel at ease as we had never been to Singapore before. She suggested where to go and eat cheap and she was so lovely my eldest daughter now has Suzana as a facebook friend (what a lovely Malaysian lady she is!). We decided on Far East Plaza Apartments mainly because with three females staying in Singapore we really needed the space which most of the hotels didn't offer have unless we got two rooms or a roll out bed. Our deluxe apartment had 60 sq metres of space (2 queen size beds) so it was just what we needed. It also has a huge pool on the 7th floor which the girls enjoyed.
