Fine, I will clarify. Marina Bay Sands so you can swim in the pool. Not for hotel quality/experience.

Intercon

Fullerton Bay

@BCG 1: Isn't Fullerton Bay ridiculously expensive? Think it might be out of policy

What did you think of Westin and St. Regis? Going in October for a few days of personal travel.

Thanks guys! Will check out Intercon. MBS is a little too busy for my liking

The W in Sentosa is pretty good. But getting to the city takes a little bit of an effort. Strongly dislike Westin. St. Regis is super nice (although a little old), and is in Orchard, which is near the touristy spots if that's what you want. Also close to an MRT station if you want to go around. Me? I just want a change :)

Sheraton Towers isn't bad, but looks like you're alt traveling so you could probably expense better

It's also right on top of a MRT station

Marina Bay Sands or Marriott Tang Plaza if the Fullerton is out of policy.

Conrad in Singapore is very nice

Loved the St Regis 👍🏼 But of course not much beats the Marina Bay.

Mandarin Oriental

Raffles Hotel is historic, luxurious and opulent. Make sure to have the "Singapore Sling" drink there, no matter if you stay there or not. It's the birthplace of the famous drink.

By the way, Raffles is a 5 star hotel.

W is decent.

Marina Bay Sands! Mostly kidding
