“Good, modern alternative to the big hotels”

New Majestic Hotel

5 of 5 stars
Melbourne, AUS
Jul 17, 2008

I have just completed my fourth stay at the New Majestic over a six week period. Each time I have thoroughly enjoyed my stay. I have tried three different rooms types each with its own unique decoration and quite different layouts.

Although some rooms are small (relative to some of the bigger properties in SIngapore), they are well laid out and maximise use of available space.

The toiletries and bedding were top notch (particularly the quilt which was appropriately light for the tropical environment that Singapore is), and the airconditioning relatively quiet. The breakfast, whilst not offering the huge spread that many hotels offer, was simple, fresh and met my needs for a quick, light breakfast before heading to the office, similar to that I would have at home.

The hotel staff have been friendly and courteous and I was warmly greeted everytime I entered/left the hotel - perhaps because they began to recognise me! I do like the location close to Chinatown, less than 100m from Outram Park MRT and only a short walk from areas such as Club St and Tanjong Pagar, and a lot more peaceful than staying somewhere like Orchard Rd.

As far as facilities go, they are commensurate with the size of the hotel. I have enjoyed a meal at the restaurant and drinks/snacks at the lively Majestic bar.

Another positive is inclusions - such as breakfast, internet, (soft) minibar & local calls reduce the add-ons, and even laundry reasonably priced.

Downside? (some) smallish rooms, a little noise if staying on the bar side of the hotel, and perhaps not having the infrastructure that a large hotel provides.

In summary, if you are after a decadent 5 star experience, lavish breakfast, palatial rooms and massive swimming pool then I'd recommend staying elsewhere. If you're after a modern, attractively designed boutique hotel with non-obtrusive but personal service and close to but not right in the middle of Singapore hustle and bustle - I'd thoroughly recommend the hotel.

“Stylish hotel, just a few grumbles”

New Majestic Hotel

4 of 5 stars
Poole, Dorset
Jul 13, 2008

The New Majestic is a very trendy hotel, with a cool mix of design classics and funky furniture. We had an attic room with 2 deep baths in the middle of the room. Looked great, but there was not enough hot water to fill them both! it took us 3 attempts. When we mentioned it to the GM he seemed like he was told it alot but couldn't do much about it. The room was nice, but had too much furniture in it making it feel smaller than it was. The staff were excellent and the included breakfast was very nice. Located in Chinatown is not the best location in our opinion. It's a nice hotel but in our view there is better in Singapore, namely the Naumi and much cheaper.

“worst hotel staff and service”

New Majestic Hotel

1 of 5 stars

0/1 found this review helpful

Its the worst hotel stay i had ever experienced. Even though, i'm a local but the service they gave me was really bad. The staff was rude and we check out of the hotel even before 12am. When we made a complaint to the hotel, the front desk manager even sided with her staff and charged us for a full night stay even though we did not stay through out the night due to the staff bad attitude. The staff behaved like a gangster to customers, and i can't believed that the hotel did not even ask the staff to apologise to us. Personally, as a local, i would not recommed this hotel to anyone if service is your top priority.

“Nice room but bad experience.”

New Majestic Hotel

2 of 5 stars
Singapore
Jun 8, 2008

We stayed here for 1 night at this aqua room. The room was spacious, clean & beautiful design. I also happy that there is a turn-down service in the evening. But we have a sleepless night, as there is a loud music coming from the hotel bar (Majestic bar) till early morning. The water heater is another problem for us, as we might not get a hot/warm water as and when we required. The staff service was horrible, as far as i know the hotel standard check-out time is 12:00PM. But we received a call at 11:40AM to remind us that we need to check-out now where we had requested a late check-out at 12:30PM & agreed by them. The breakfast was very simple & limited choice.

“Great hotel”

New Majestic Hotel

5 of 5 stars
New York, NY
Jun 8, 2008

Just returned from 2 nights at the New Majestic. Loved the hotel, especially the open-air (during the day) lobby. Was nice to be in a 'funky' but very comfortable place in an up-and-coming area of town while my colleagues were in big boring corporate hotels. Took me about 7 minutes in a (cheap) taxi to get to Suntec centre each day.

Bed was v. comfortable, Kiehl's products a nice touch, shower amazing, food at the restaurant downstairs very good, staff excellent. My only complaints are:

-for some reason I have noticed this trend in new Asian hotels: lightswitch weirdness. The lightswitch for the bathroom is neither in, nor anywhere near the bathroom--it is above and to the left of the headboard of the bed. Why??

-Air conditioning: you can adjust the temperature in the room,but as I wanted to open the windows and enjoy the tropical breeze at night I had to specially request that the front desk 'dismantle' the A/C. You can't turn it on/off in your own room.

-Restaurant: food was good but the only in-room dining options are set-course menus. Not convenient when it's 10pm and you just want to nibble while writing a business report. I just went downstairs and ordered a la carte in the restaurant.

All in all those are just minor gripes. This is a great hotel and I will definitely be staying next time I'm in S'pore.
