Mandai Rainforest Resort by Banyan Tree

This newly opened hotel at Singapore Zoo offers great value for money, with room rates around 💰300-500 SGD per night depending on the room type. Options include standard rooms, rainforest rooms, scenic view rooms, and treehouses (though the treehouses are naturally more expensive). The scenic view rooms are quite beautiful - just slide open the door to hear cheerful birdsongs and enjoy stunning views of the lake and forest, perfect for gorgeous selfies. All room rates include breakfast buffet (we'll have a separate post about this value-packed breakfast later). The service is thoughtful too, with lemon water, juice and cookies prepared in the lobby for waiting guests. The provided hotel map makes exploration super convenient. The hotel features a spa, a rooftop garden on the 5th floor, and an infinity pool. The panoramic views from the top floor are absolutely breathtaking, especially when paired with the beautifully designed treehouses. Room amenities are comprehensive, including eco-friendly reusable plastic cups and tote bags for zoo visitors to carry water. There's also a cute pencil containing rose seeds that guests can take home to plant - a fun little gift indeed.
