Historical Traveller Reviews of Grand Mercure Roxy Hotel
Acceptable, but not nearly as nice as official website depicts
from A TripAdvisor Member
I chose to stay at the hotel (Singapore $225/night) due to the a need to lay over for a day/night in Singapore and its proximity to the airport (10-15 minute drive).
The room was somewhat clean (noticeable carpet stains) but with extremely firm beds. I did not have a view of the sea and would recommend one be requested if staying here.
Travel into the city's center is simple via taxi and the nearby shopping mall (i.e., across the street) provides cheap options for food. As previous reviewers have stated, the pool is a highlight, and a nice place to rest and relax (NOTE: In the evenings it may close early to host outdoor events). For a quick stopover, the hotel is adequate, but other alternatives may want to be considered.

Perfect Start
from Pumpkinette
If you want a perfect start to your holiday in Singapore or a wonderful stopover en route elsewhere, then the Roxy is a fantastic place to begin.
Elegant rooms with one of the best buffet breakfasts on offer are two reasons why I would return to this hotel again and recommend it to all single (and couple) travellers alike.
Although a little expensive to my ideal price bracket, the Roxy's breakfast inclusion and free airport bus make it worthwhile spend.
Located opposite a large shopping centre and market (to begin your Singapore shopover), you can catch the Number 36 bus for less than $AUS2 and find yourself near all the city sights (such as Orchid Road) and tourist areas within 10 minutes.

Comfortable but impersonal
from tshirtsuntan
We stayed at this hotel for 2 nights in May 07. The room was clean and comfortable, with everything you would expect for this type of hotel. We had a view out to sea which was nice. Our main concern when we booked was the distance from Downtown Singapore, but this really isn't a problem as taxis are cheap and frequent buses run past the hotel to all over Singapore. There are also malls and restaurants near the hotel. The pool was really good for chilling out after a day shopping, sightseeing etc! We found the staff pleasant enough but no more than that, and the room did lack personality. But for a comfortable stopover in Singapore this is a good choice!
no problems
from sam63
We were using this as our overnight stay . Our check in was very efficient, room clean and large. Bed was so comfortable.
We were travelling with a 4 year old and found the staff very child friendly.
Breakfast was sensational, a huge selection.
Over the road is a shopping centre and a market area which all the locals sit and have their dinner. We had a lovely evening meal there . The locals were all to willing to explain what the dishes were. We managed to have dinner for $10 and my partner managed a couple of dishes in that!!
We loved the pool area.
We will definately stay here next time we go back to Singapore as despite the fact it is not central, taxi fares are so reasonable and the distances are not far to travel.

Good hotel and near the airport
from andyh5151
A great hotel and much better than Accor's other hotel at Clarke Quay (Novotel). The rooms were lovely with great views over the bay. Fairly nice swimming pool and good gym - can't comment on restaurants but they looked nice. Location is great for East Coast Park and very near airport. Poor for central town. Beware of Accor's Best Price Guarantee however - it's a complete joke - find your deal via Expedia etc and book that way.
A perfect stay
from janetlb
We had a day and a half in Singapore en-route to New Zealand. Our travel agent booked this hotel and initially I was a little disappointed it wasn't in central Singapore. However, we had a wonderful stay.
The hotel was a ten minute taxi ride from the airport - reasonable price and easily obtained taxi from the airport. The immediate area was quiet and quite residential. It was a five minute walk to a lovely beach and park, and the shopping centre with lots of shops and restaurants was just over the road.
We arrived mid-afternoon and went for a walk on the beach, walk round shopping centre, had a lovely Thai meal in one of the restaurants then back to the hotel for a drink.
In the morning we enjoyed an excellent breakfast then checked out of our large and well-appointed room, left our luggage and took a taxi to the MRT - the fast rail transport throughout the centre. We managed Sentosa Island, Chinatown, high tea at Raffles and Orchard Road before getting a taxi back to the hotel to pick up our luggage and get us straight back to the airport.
Had we been staying for a few days a more central hotel would probably have been better but for our purposes it was ideal.

Wonderful hotel
from FrenchyParis
I spent only 3 nights in Singapour before leaving for Australia, yet it was an wonderful time. The hotel is very modern, has many equipments...and rooms are huge ! Breakfast was incredibly tasteful, and above all, the staff was definitely perfect.
As soon as I go back to Asia, I do my best to step by this place !

quite different experience
from antonyb
Stayed oct31 2006 on stopoverf & found this an excellent hotel. At airport went to visitors counter who arranged for a charming Malaysian to come & take us to hotel shuttle which was clean.Delightful 10 minute drive along beautiful East Coast Drive to hotel.Foyer was attractive, reception & other staff. very helpful,atmosphere relaxed. 9th floor room was spotless as was corridor.Attractive pool with gym & changing room.Attractive dining room with good breakfast (not expensive compared with CBD hotels). Over road a large 3 floor shopping complex with basement food hall.
Recommended as calm, relaxed & without rush ,bustle & crowds of central Singapore. Excellent attentive staff. Having read other critical reviews must say it was definitely not our experience & will certainly use again on stopover.

from melly.ontheRock
Stayed at this hotel for 2 nights as it's close to Changi. Room is ok. Shuttle bus to airport was always nice. I would recommend this hotel to people catching red eye flights.
Top Local Tips for Singapore
High tea at Raffles Really enjoyed the high tea at Raffles. Excellent range of food, plenty of it, lovely atmosphere, excellent service - will never forget it.
Shuttle bus Make use of the hotel shuttle bus if you have the time. A taxi cost us about $S10 each way to the airport
Visit the National Museum The history section of the National Museum is excellent, and well worth a visit. If you arrived on Singapore Airlines, take your boarding pass with you to the museum for a 50% discount.
