Singapore 109 - Ibis Hotel Singapore On Bencoolen • Sassy Urbanite's Diary

Accor Hotels always have this 50% off for their chains of hotels around the world and I took the chance to book a long weekend stay at Ibis Hotel Singapore Bencoolen last January when the promotion was again made available. This time for only SGD221, my sister and I managed to book a room for 2 nights over the Thaipusam weekend for our first trip to the Universal Studio Singapore. It was my 2nd time staying at the Ibis Hotel Singapore On Bencoolen (my previous post was in September 2010: here). It was clean, simple yet functional, centrally located with walking distance to Bugis and Bras Basah MRT stations. However this time around, we used taxi to go around mostly in city and took the free bus shuttle to Universal Studio from Summer View Hotel which was just right across the Ibis Hotel. The room also came with free WiFi which was a good thing as some other Ibis Hotels still charge for internet connection. Overall, it was another pleasant no fuss experience with Ibis Hotel for those who don’t spend much time in the hotel and only need comfortable and clean room to sleep in.
