we stayed in Raffles at the Plaza, & it was great, we booked via Trailfinders & got a good deal

The zoo, next door is a night safari, bird world, Sentosa beach area, museums, the botanic gardens are great to run around in and the orchid garden section is very pretty.
Singapore slings at Raffles, The taxis are good value and the MRT trains and buses are excellent value only a few $.
The airport itself is the worlds best, clean, friendly

Hi
We also stayed in Raffles the Plaza and it was fabulous and we got a great deal from trailfinders. Can't recommend it highly enough. Previously we have stayed in the Meritus Mandarin in Orchard Road, the location was fabulous however, the rooms were pretty disappointingly ordinary! (something to watch for on the room allocation of singapore airlines).
Recommend shopping, the zoo, boat and clarke quays for evenings and the bus tour. We also went to bird park and sentosa and the cable cars, all great trips.
Have fun Singapore is awesome.
Karen

If you are flying with Singapore Air, book the hotel through them as they get great discounts.
Zoo and duck boat are great

I stayed here a few times, very nice;

Especially the elegant cocktail waitresses in the long slit dresses.

You can see Singapore in a few days, Sentosa Island, night safari, Hawkers centers ( outdoor eating markets).Singapore slings at Raffles.

Have stayed many times at the Westin (now Stamford I think) and it is one of my favourite hotels anywhere. Clean and quiet. And only a step away from the Funan centre - boy's toys!
