The Laurus, a Luxury Collection Resort, Singapore

After leaving the Maldives and our five-star resort, I was convinced the trip could only go downhill. Then we checked into The Laurus Hotel, Singapore—and everything changed. I discovered we could, in fact, spend one more day in paradise. We arrived late and tired, but by morning the hotel and we had come alive through its extraordinary service. Amalina gave us a personal tour of the lobby and its art, explaining how each piece connects to Singapore’s history and people. The hotel itself is a masterpiece, designed by P49 Deesign, where every material, light, and texture feels deliberate and refined. Our room was spacious, elegant, and flawlessly functional—true five-star luxury without a hint of excess. The pool was equally impressive: tranquil, palm-lined, and perfectly attended by Hassan and Ashraf, who seemed to anticipate every need before we could ask. At breakfast, Selina and Hafiz somehow appeared each time I reached for my teacup—I drank three times more tea than usual simply because their timing was so flawless. Breakfast was superb. Every staff member we met—Tiffany, Desiree, Vilia, and Shevendran—carried themselves with the polish and pride of a professional inspection. Shoes gleamed, shirts were pressed, postures straight. When we departed, several staff members gathered at the taxi to see us off with genuine warmth and perfect manners. Including Selina the hotel’s crowning jewel. Her warmth and sincerity made every encounter a delight, and we look forward to returning next year to see her once more. As exquisitely beautiful as The Laurus Hotel is, it was the staff who impressed us most. From housekeeping to the kitchen team, every greeting and every conversation felt sincere and heartfelt. They are the reason we’ll be returning—and staying longer next time. What an impression they made; they actually made me forget I had just left paradise. Moral of the story: listen to your wife when she says, “Let’s stay somewhere you’ve never heard of.” You’ll be very glad you did. Singleton/Guan

I had a wonderful stay at The Laurus Hotel Singapore. The hotel is new, stylish, and run by a young and energetic team. My room was impressively spacious, spotless, and very comfortable. The outdoor swimming pool area is also a highlight — plenty of seating and a relaxing atmosphere. A special mention goes to Ms. Jackie, the Duty Manager, who truly made my stay memorable. She was engaging, knowledgeable, and shared great insights about the hotel as part of the pre-opening team. Even though we met late at night, her warm energy and genuine hospitality made me feel very welcome. Overall, a fantastic experience I’m looking forward to returning November. See ya

Loved the location of the hotel as it is closer to the attractions and vivo, its less than 10 minutes walk from USS which is great especially after Halloween night 😅 Shuttle bus is also available every 12 minutes from hotel michael to Laurus. Absolutely loved everything about the hotel, from the staff to the amenities. The room has a coffee table that has a modern filtered water installed, nicee. Am seriously considering the room design for my own 🤣 Only thing is not much power points in the living room or the TV console area 😅 Huge shoutout to Jackie and the breakfast team, very attentive and informative 😊
