Frommer's "Merchant Court is beautifully located in the city center, within easy walking distance of Chinatown and the historic and financial districts." Full review
Fodor's "The trend toward developing no-frills hotels for business travelers led the Raffles Group to open Merchant Court, in the Boat Quay district."
Lonely Planet "Rising up like a mini-city beside the Singapore River are the expansive terraces of the Merchant Court."

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
