Furama Riverfront

Rating:
Number of Rooms: 605

Furama Riverfront is a 4-star hotel located near the Tiong Bahru estate in Singapore. It is not located near an MRT (subway) station (about 15 minute walk), so be prepared to take a taxi to places of attraction in Singapore. The hotel does provide a complimentary shuttle bus service to Chinatown and Orchard Road, but there will probably be some waiting time involved.

The rooms and service at Furama Riverfront are generally recognised to be good, with coffee and tea-making facilities in the rooms. Chinatown is within walking distance, and it is a favorite of tourists. There is the Tiong Bahru housing estate near the hotel, one of Singapore’s first public housing development projects. The set-up of the housing estate is typical of the urban planning and lifestyle of middle-class Singaporeans. It is also a place where visitors can find affordable local food, although there is plenty of that in Chinatown as well.

There is a tennis court, a putting green, a swimming pool and a gymnasium. In conclusion, Furama Riverfront is an all-round decent hotel, just keep in mind the location is not the best.
