Rooms are clean but Tiny!

The location of this Hotel is great, right next to the underground station, a Shopping Mall and in the bustling China Town. Lots of places to eat around there. If you are bothered about traffic noise in the mornings then this is not the place for you. Rooms are clean, however they are tiny! There is barely room to walk around the bed let alone any space to put your suitcase. If you are travelling alone, this is fine but if you are sharing a room with someone, I would not recommend it. The bathroom is a wet room, so the shower is right next to the toilet so everything in there gets wet. This place is budget friendly and fine if you are only there for one or two nights and on your own.

Small cramped room, mold in the shower, nearly 300.00 for just 2 nights, didnt even have a window, and the walls were extremely thin, dirty air conditioner, old scratched up furniture. But the staff were lovely and very accommodating, and the location is good as well.

8/10 Very good

This is a very basic hotel. What it lacks in anything in the way of style or extras is made up for by location, location, location. It’s a perfectly fine hotel for those on a budget. It’s a brilliant hotel form walking around most of Singapore city.

Roy, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Absolutely loved the location in the middle of Chinatown. Step out of the lobby and a great mall was across the street. Only a short distance to our favorite outdoor restaurant. The staff were all kind, cheerful and treated us as close family. The room was extremely tiny. Maybe 10' x 10', but who needs more? We were there to only sleep at night and a midday rest. We will definitely stay here again if we are fortunate enough to return to Singapore. Thank you Hotel 81!!

Hotel 81 in Chinatown is my place of choice. Not to expensive also. I will return when I need a quick and clean place to stay.

I always stay here when in Singapore. Room just right. Staff excellent. Area around hotel has great food and any shopping you may need. Only improvements would be more tv stations, clean between windows and more electric outlets.

It's A Budget Stay Can't Expect Too Much.
Mark, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Was just after a place to be able to stay after being out all day for 3 days. Overall Hotel 81 is very well situated and the room has the amenities that I required. Although if you do require a larger bathroom, it is quite tight (no separate shower cube to separate from toilet/sink).

The water dripping and the entire room was wet one day when I got back, very inconvenient
Eric Kwan Tai, 4-night trip

2/10 Poor

Not recommend.

Very very old. And price down 20% when check in compare with booking time 4 days ago. Really bad experience.
1-night trip

4/10 Fair

The room that I had for the price per night is not worth it…it wasn’t mentioned that the room has no windows and no shower…the shower is in the toilet…and the room is very small and had very old furniture….the beddings were clean…but it’s probably overpriced for 427 Canadian dollars for 2 nights. Only good thing is walkable to some tourists attractions. Amenities in the room is very poor.

Brilliant Location Compact Hotel

Its Singapore accommodation on a budget. Room although small and bathroom also compact (even compared to Japan) was good for a few nights if you dont plan spending your days in your room, and why should you. Its a bit dated, it was clean and wasn't noisy so you can get a good nights sleep. The location is brilliant. Close to Lau Pa Sat satay club and fantastic Hawker food markets hidden across the roads in various locations and down in Chinatown (that one was the best). The train station is across the road. I wouldn't hesitate staying again even just for the location. You get what you pay for, so if the Fullerton, Ritz or even Furama are not in your travel budget, but want to get down with great food all around and somewhere to start your exploration then your in the right place. Save some money to spend on all the great food all around.
