Frommer's Review
This has to be the best location in the city. Above an MRT hub and next to one of the largest shopping centers in Singapore, you won't find any inconveniences here. The lobby is peaceful with soft lighting and music, a lovely escape from the crazy mall and hot streets. Perhaps the best reason to stay is the Amrita spa and fitness center; Singapore's largest spa, it features a huge state-of-the-art gym with exercise and relaxation classes, a pool, hot and cold plunge pools, steam and sauna, and endless treatment rooms with Asian and European treatments for beauty and rejuvenation. Standard rooms are large and comfortable. Premier deluxe rooms are stunningly contemporary, with cushy bedding, big desk spaces, Bose Wave systems, and incredible bathrooms -- crisp white tiles, glistening glass countertops, polished chrome fixtures, and a shower that simulates rainfall.
Facilities:10 restaurants; martini bar, lobby lounge, and a live jazz venue; outdoor pool; spa w/gym, Jacuzzi, sauna, steam, and massage; concierge; limousine service; business center; shopping arcade adjacent; 24-hr. room service; babysitting; same-day laundry service; dry cleaning; nonsmoking rooms; executive-level rooms

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
