Whiskey bar, yet appropriate for all ages. Quiet, calm in the middle of a busy and vibrant part of Little India. We arrived very early (9 a.m.) yet were allowed to check in after a brief wait for housekeeping to clean the room. Bottled water offered both in the room and at the front desk.

Hidden Gem in Singapore

We had an amazing time at The Vagabond Club. We booked a 3 night stay as part of a longer tour. The room was comfortable if not a little dated but the service, food and proximity to local attractions such as Little India, Arab Street, and very nearby access to MRT made this an ideal location. Special mention to Kavita who looked after us so well during our stay. We will be back when next in Singapore!

This hotel has a lot of sophisticated character, and we were excited each time we entered and re-entered. The staff at reception and in the bar/restaurant were professional, friendly, and helpful. We also had one of the best nights of sleep we've had in a while. The food was good; the decor and ambience were excellent. Cost was reasonable.

This is an interesting property as it’s decorated in an upscale manner to match with the Little India neighborhood. Only stay here if you don’t mind feeling a part of the local neighborhood. The bartender and doorman are very friendly. We rarely saw the front desk person. Top floor suites require several steps to access.

This was my second stay at The Vagabond Club, the last being seven years ago. It's a lovely boutique hotel. From the moment you enter through the front door, it's quiet, stylish, peaceful and cool. I had an ordinary room, not large, but very pretty. I felt comfortable and relaxed. Some really nice and interesting design features, like the bathroom door that is really a wall, and the panel that slides back and forth allowing entry into either the excellent shower or the rest of the bathroom--maximizing the space. The lobby and whisky bar are so plush with cool lighting -- you'll feel like a celebrity. Finally, the neighborhood is really the best. So many interesting restaurants and bars--alive at all hours, while somehow being not too loud or busy at all. I look forward to my next stay.

Great Boutique Hotel

Only stayed one night on our way home but was the perfect location for a visit to Gardens by the Bay and then a very comfortable night's sleep followed by a great breakfast before an easy journey back to the airport.
