A staycation and travel addict who tries to toe the balance between living the atas life and maintaining some resemblance of financial sanity.
What an anticipated property this is!
I was looking forward to this stay because I was able to secure a Stay Plus slot with a small top up, plus I would still have my Accor Platinum status at the point of my stay which would hopefully elevate the experience. Excited to see what the former Park Hotel Orchard has become under the Accor group.

I’m back again!
After my awesome stay just 1month ago and the impending expiry of my Accor Suite Night Awards, I figured this is the best property to burn off 2 out of 3 Awards – and I did say I’d be back to the Stamford Crest Suite right? Heh.
This review will also focus on the room more than anything else as most remains unchanged since my past stay only 1 month+ ago.
Continue reading “[Hotel Review] Swissotel The Stamford – Stamford Crest Suite”My previous stay at this property was not amazing due to the issues I had with the musty smell in the bed’s headboard so figured I’ll give it another shot due to super good rates as well as test out the experience being an Accor Platinum member.

Well, this was impromtu.
Such was the joy of knowing the fuss-free re-opening of land borders to Malaysia that we woke up at 5am to leave for a last-min trip to the land of gula melaka. The planned 1-nighter also made DoubleTree an impractical option (and too expensive) to explore the streets, so Ibis it was. I admit I was a little apprehensive about an older Ibis property especially when the state of maintenance is unknown but onwards we went!

I initially booked this using my Hotelux points but as fate would have it, Accor launched a superb sale with 30% off and I was seeing some really good rates for a Fairmont Gold room so I decided to stash my points for another stay another time.
Fairmont Singapore has also been the only Accor property in Singapore where I had no issues with room upgrades so far so hoping for a great experience again. I wouldnt repeat stuff about the facilities as those hasn’t changed since my last stay so refer to that post instead if you like okay?

And of course, I was able to find an excuse to staycay here despite having tried the property back in 2017 when they first opened. This time, it was the combination of the Accor Flash Sale stacked with my Platinum status benefits – why not?

I booked this on a whim (sort of) during the 12.12 Flash Sale which offered a 30% off four Accor properties in Singapore – and this was the only one which appealed to me.
[Then I found out later that the rate remained the same up to few days prior but oh wells].

I am usually a little too close to this property as I literally work in the same cluster but I figured I’ll do a 3D2N pretend atas staycay to see how it feels like to be able to walk “home” in 10mins from work (and vice versa). This would also ended up being my first stay being an ALL Platinum and was excited to find out what elite treatment awaits.

I’ve finally bit the bullet for this grand old dame!
I had missed out on their Suite Treat and Suite Life packages offered earlier this year as I have always not preferred the colonial style for staycays and honestly this property always seems a little out of reach in terms of price point. But since this year is a year of money-burning staycays, why not.
I’m also going to (try to) be as detailed as I can just because its Raffles. Heh.

Finally redeemed my second (and last) Stay Plus benefit!
There are not a lot of Accor properties in Singapore which I’ve wanted to try but not yet. Some are not in my list as they don’t have a club lounge. Novotel looks too old on pics, So Sofitel doesn’t have a club lounge, and thanks but no thanks to Ibis. And of course Raffles Singapore is not on the list.
