From Swissotel Merchant Court, Singapore
This is a contemporary Resort-type Hotel set near the Singapore River, within walking distance of Clarke Quay Festival Village & Chinatown. I certainly have a great view of the Singapore river and some of the adjacent buildings. Of course, this is a city hotel, some some rooms may have just buildings in front of time (which is unavoidable).
The hotel is located next to a new sopping mall, Central. Its along the river and has a strong Japanese theme (not sure if the top investors/owners are from Japan).
Loved this hotel, the room is well decorated, very cozy. Maybe a bit slacking especially from the front desk staff — they were just too many new staff (that i encountered) that would just call their supervisor to refer to anything that i asked.

The last stay was in early 2008. We loved the fact that the hotel is located just about a few steps from Clarke Quay, so it is very convenient for us to browse through the many restaurants, shops, bars and nightclubs. It is also just a short walk to the Clarke Quay MRT station.
The hotel offers two restaurants and a bar, a souvenir shop, a hair salon, business centre, laundry service, in-room movies and 24 h room service (of course). The hotel offers a large swimming pool with a waterfall and a poolside bar overlooking the city center of Singapore.
Other than the new many receptionist staff, this is a good hotel to stay; we rated this 7/10 overall.
