Meritus Mandarin, Singapore

Advantages: Well –located, friendly and efficient staff, well-appointed rooms
Disadvantages: Dark, lounge/bar area unsuitable for recreational gatherings

...operated by buttons in a variety of locations and yet it was still dark! Eventually I yearned to see the light. Only the corridors of the bedroom floors are light with bowls brimming with fruit and newspapers for guests to pick up as they pass by. The Meritus Negara is ideal for people visiting Singapore on businness. It is meticulously clean, the staff are courteous and helpful but the lounges are somehere you pass through to get to your room or to leave the darkness and step into light, lively yet safe, excitement of Singapore....

Advantages: Friendly Service, Great Food, Loads of Entertainment
Disadvantages: None!!!

...Mandarin? When boarding for the flight from Singapore to Brisbane, my father and I were upgraded to business class as we were the first two to check in for the flight! In business class I was given several small Singapore Airlines travel games such as chess, solitaire and chequers. I was also given a small plastic model of the aircraft to keep me amused. The seats in business class were HUGE!!! They were made completely from leather with a laptop style computer emerging from the arm, very futuristic! I also had about 2.5-3ft of legroom! Singapore Airlines is the most professional I have ever travelled on and had by far the best service. I highly recommend them!... Read review

Advantages: wide range of shopping centres, high technology, convenient transport
Disadvantages: high expenses, bad customer services.

...I am now in Singapore and have stayed in this island for around 2 years. Singapore is a small island with only 600++ Km square. Anyway, Singapore is governed well and have a nice politic, economic and social system. It is a safe place to travel or visit. The civil defence of Singapore is executing well and always achieve low degree of crimes. The shopping centres are very popular in Asia(especially in Orchard). There are alot of shopping malls and centres for residents and visitors. Anyway, the expenses in Singapore is very high especially in service sections. Addition, the customer services provided from the staff of shops in Singapore are not very satisfactory and need to improve further. It is also a good place for travel. Have fun with it....
