Well, you’re looking at the right article. In this list, we have compiled 5 unique staycations in Singapore that you’ll love. Be it with family, loved ones, or your partner, there’ll be something for you.

1. Lloyd’s Inn

Want to stay within the city but still get away from the hustle and bustle? Located in a quieter estate near the city center lies Lloyd’s Inn. A minimalist approach to their design coupled with a touch of greenery make Lloyd’s Inn a one-of-a-kind experience.

Not to mention, the rooms are mostly in monochromatic and neutral colours. Instantly comforting, soothing and relaxing. This also makes it the perfect setting for family, instagram, or couple shots.

Sunbed lounges and dipping pool, we’re coming for you!

There are 8 types of rooms at Lloyd’s Inn. Each room captures “the relationship with nature in different ways”. Our room picks are The Skyroom – outdoor bathtub, The Patio – a private deck with outdoor dining area, and The Garden – small private garden.

Suitable for families with children or couples, Lloyd’s Inn makes for a great staycation experience.

3. Wanderlust Hotel

If you are on the hunt for an adventure, Wanderlust is your gateway to another world. Designed by award-winning design firms with no prior hotel clients, the concept of thinking-out-of-the-box has never been made more apparent in any other hotel designs.

4. The Sultan

By incorporating the immaculately conserved architectural elements of olden day Singapore into their room designs, The Sultan differentiates itself as a Uniquely Singapore hotel that retains our heritage and culture.

What’s more enlightening than getting in touch with our Singaporean roots?

Beside those rooms, The Sultan also has skylight and loft rooms. Look out for stars at night, or wake to the rays of sun peeking into the room.

5. Studio M

Clinching the title of Best Boutique Hotel in AsiaOne’s People’s Choice Awards for two years in a row (2014, 2015), it is no wonder the fully loft-inspired Studio M remains a popular choice for a staycation. If you’ve ever dreamed of staying in a loft, here’s your chance!

Nestled in the center of Robertson Quay, Studio M is a stone’s throw away from Singapore’s prime nightlife district as well as the countless cafes littered along the river. Unleash your inner cosmopolitan and book a stay here!
