Frommer's "Glamour drips from every chandelier onto the polished black marble floors of this groovy little boutique hotel." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Billed as Singapore’s first luxury boutique hotel, this 80-room property is located in Chinatown, surrounded by eclectic shops and late-19th-century buildings." Full review
Rough Guide "Housed in an impressive shophouse refurbishment, this boutique hotel has an exceptionally extravagant lobby."
Condé Nast Traveler99.6
"To be openly sexy in Singapore is unusual, but the 80-room Scarlet is just that, thanks to smoked-mirror ceilings, gilt wallpaper, black-marble floors, and red-velvet banquettes." Full review
Star Service "Raffles may have the history, and The Stamford the height, but The Scarlet holds its own among the city's limited number of boutique-hotels." Full review
Jetsetter "A decadent boutique property in Singapore's atmospheric Chinatown." Full review
Lonely Planet "Dark, luscious Scarlet offers great service and svelte rooms just around the corner from drinking hot spots Ann Siang Rd and Club Street." Full review
Michelin Guide "With more emphasis on decadent creature comforts than immediate visual shocks...there’s a private gym, called Flaunt, as well as an outdoor jacuzzi and a meeting room called Sanctum." Full review

Frommer's "There's a pleasant buzz about the Orchard Hotel. Perhaps it's the giant wrought-iron clock in the center of the lobby, ticking away the time in London, Tokyo, Singapore, and New York,..." Full review
Fodor's "Its proximity to the activity on Orchard Road, several embassies, and the Botanic Gardens has no doubt contributed to this hotel's popularity." Full review
Lonely Planet "The Orchard has a much lower profile than its big-brand neighbours on Orchard Rd and can't claim the same levels of luxury that most of these offer."
Star Service "The hotel is composed of two towers; the accommodations in the Orchard Wing have received much-needed makeovers, while the rooms in the Claymore Wing remain in good shape." Full review
Oyster Upscale
"The 656-room Orchard Hotel Singapore is an upscale property next to the infamous Orchard Towers and near Orchard Road's major shopping areas." Full review
