“it was ok, but very small and not real convenient”

Harbour Ville Hotel

3 of 5 stars
Grand Junction, Colorado
May 3, 2008
1/1 found this review helpful

We stayed at the Harbour Ville for a total of 5 nights. We stayed the 1st night in a Superior room and then left 2 large luggage bags with the hotel and traveled to Thailand for 4 days. When we returned, we stayed another 4 nights in a regular room.
The first night was fine, even though the room was small & crowded, it was clean and at the back of the hotel. The breakfast on the patio was very good and filling. When we returned, our luggage was sitting in the lobby, and had been for the whole 4 days. We were then assigned a regular room on the front of the hotel. It was the tinest room and alot of street noise. The bath wasn't as clean & the A/C leaked all down the wall, causing a puddle in the floor. We were only in the room in the evenings to sleep, thank goodness. I am a light sleeper and had to wear ear plugs because of the traffic noise. These 4 nights were paid for with frequent flyer miles, so I don't know if this was the reason we were given the room we had or what.
The staff were exceptionally friendly & helpful though. Another T.A. reader had said there was a 7-11 behind the hotel. We asked directions and found it up behind the bus stop in the middle of some apartments. We also found a bakery that was very good, right across from the 7-11.
I had some problems with the internet, but the front desk was always helpful to try and fix it.
You have to walk a little ways down the street to a bus stop to catch a bus to get to the MRT station. We bought an E-Z link card, which was good for the MRT & bus. We rode the bus to the Harbour Front MRT Station and then we could take the MRT to where ever we needed to go. When we would come back in the evening, if we wanted to stop and have a quick, cheap meal, we would go to Vivo City Mall and eat in the food court and then catch the bus back to the hotel. You can catch the Harbour Front MRT from the basement of Vivo City Mall.
If you plan to stay here, pay a little extra & get the superior room. Both room had the tea kettle and fixings and a small fridge.

“A Room is a Room”

Harbour Ville Hotel

Apr 7, 2008

This is a great place to stay as long as you don't plan on being in your room the whole time - the rooms are small but nicely furnished and the bathrooms are clean. The location is ok - close to Sentosa access but a little further from other attractions such as Chinatown and City Centre - but these are very easily reached by the MRT. If you are planning a holiday where you stay in your room - spring for a place with bigger rooms. Great place to spend the night if only have a quick stop over and money is important!

“5th time staying over....Still as good”

Harbour Ville Hotel

Feb 23, 2008
3/3 found this review helpful

This is my fifth time staying at the hotel. It is clean and we have never experienced good service before. The room is spartan and clean white.

Breakfast is a lovely continental spread with ham, hotdogs, baked beans, eggs etc. Worth every penny that I paid for! However, please bear in mind breakfast is not served on Sunday.

It is a few bus stops away from Vivocity, largest shopping mall in Singapore, Sentosa and harbour front MRT. Take bus 61, 143 or 166 opposite harbour ville hotel.

Overall I would say this is probably a good hotel to stay in with a budget of below S$100!

“Not bad”

Harbour Ville Hotel

3 of 5 stars
NW France
Feb 8, 2008
3/3 found this review helpful

Singapore has always had good expensive hotels and varying degrees of basic hotels. Harbour Ville was not luxury but sounded good. The taxis at Outram MRT station did not know where it was though only a mile away. Luckily I had printed off a map. It might help if you tell them it is next to St Teresa's church, which is what buses 61, 124, 143, 166 recognise the area as. Check-in was friendly and easy. I was disappointed with the room (A "super-Queen" room means you have a queen-sized bed). It looked quite basic but after four nights in the room, I thought it not bad. I think I had expected too much originally.
Daily maid service with fresh towels. Complimentary 500 ml bottle of water daily as well as enough makings for two cups of tea and two of coffee, and a kettle. Complimentary shower gel and shampoo. All important fridge. TV has HBO, 2 sports channels, news, a general channel with films, series, etc. The area is quiet. Door cannot be locked from inside so use "do not disturb" sign. Air conditioning works a bit too well and I settled on low fan and 30.C as being just right.
Hotel has small internet room, gym, laundry. Internet avaialble in rooms extra. Lobby has small snack bar with choice of sandwiches, drinks, noodles.
Though not in the centre, regular buses to Outram MRT station and Chinatown just beyond it as well as other places. When returning, be aware that Outram station has a number of exits. I used bus stop across from Pearls Centre (shopping area). Cross the road from the hotel and depending on what bus stop, Vivo City (mall) is only 2-3 stops away (124 does not go there). Buses do not give change and flat fare is 90 cents, or $1 if you do not have change. Hotel will change notes for coins.

“Good value as a transit hotel”

Harbour Ville Hotel

3 of 5 stars
australia
Jan 23, 2008

We stayed here one night on our way back to Perth after a week in Phuket. Good value as a transist hotel. Room very small but didn't smell of smoke. Bathroom small, but clean. You have to be skillful not to spray the toilet with water. Room air conditioned. Nothing in bar fridge, but one bottle of water supplied. For the cost, and the fact we were leaving at 5.00am for our flight home it was more than adequate. A better choice if you can get a booking is IBnb a bed and breakfast, walking distance from this hotel. We walked to the Outram train station from this location. Turn left after leaving the hotel, keep walking to till you reach the T junction, turn right and another 10 minutes you reach the Outram train station. No real complaints, if you want a good price you can't expect top accomodation. One complaint
worth noting is that the pillows were very thin. As the rooms are small I would avise going out for tea or something similar and using the room as a spot to sleep.
