Feedback about Strand Hotel from previous guests about their experience.
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Guests frequently highlight the hotel's excellent location, especially its proximity to Bencoolen MRT station, making airport transfers and city exploration easy. Many appreciate the spacious rooms, sometimes even receiving complimentary upgrades to superior twins, and some have found the provision of free tea, coffee, and water near reception a welcome touch. While the hotel's exterior may appear plain to some, it provides convenient access to nearby amenities like the Waterloo Street Hawker Centre; however, a few guests have mentioned that the showerhead in standard rooms is fixed, which may be a bit inconvenient.

The hotel is located right next to Bencoolen MRT station making travel easy. Complimentary water was available throughout my stay a generous amenity.
The hotel could use some updating as the furnishings seem dated.

bencoolen beauty

early check-inspacious roomsuperior twinsee-through curtain
the location rocks, near bencoolen mrt! we even got upgraded from a standard twin to a superior twin, yes! our room was super spacious, and it was really clean, which i loved. they let us check in way early, a total win!
those curtains are see through! i reminded me of everyone could see me at night when the lights are on. it's a little too exposed for my taste, needs blackout shades!

the hotel is next to the train station, and travelling around the area was quite easy. plenty of restaurants surrounded the hotel. the staff reminded me about some gifts a friend left for me at the reception.
the room assigned was a bit dark. there were not many electronic plugs to charge devices next to the bed. the bathroom looked older.
