The three-pearl Park Avenue Changi is a solid business hotel that's near the airport and the Singapore Expo Center. There's also a metro stop within a five-minute walk, so it's still possible to explore Singapore from here. Features are thin -- there's no restaurant -- but there's a small lap pool and gym on the top floor, plus meeting rooms and a free shuttle around the business park. The 251 rooms are well sized compared to city-center hotels, especially Executive Rooms and Suites, which have large living areas and kitchenettes. Every room also comes with a handy smartphone. If airport proximity is a must, travelers could consider The Village Hotel Changi as an alternative. It has more features, including a restaurant and spa, and it's near the beach.

This Four Points outpost is a large three-and-a-half-pearl property with a good location on the riverfront. It's opposite shopping and dining on Robertson Quay and a short walk from Clarke Quay. Though set just out of the CBD, buses and river taxis are on hand to get you around. The 476 rooms and suites have a bright, classic style and smart bathrooms, with family-friendly rooms and suites available for those who need a little more space. There are several business spaces, an outdoor pool, and a gym with a steam room, so the hotel appeals to a wide cross-section of travelers. Four restaurants cater for the desires of most guests as well. It's worth comparing prices with nearby Holiday Inn Singapore Atrium for similar facilities, though it lacks riverfront views.

The Bay Hotel Singapore offers a convenient location near VivoCity shopping center, the MRT HarbourFront Station, and Sentosa Island. The 333-room, upscale hotel is also nestled against the beautiful Mount Faber hillside, offering green treetop views for guests to enjoy from the lobby bar, Street 30 restaurant, 24-hour fitness center, and 24-hour outdoor pool. Though the small, minimalistic rooms offer free Wi-Fi and free minibars, they're on the small side. This is a cheaper alternative to the luxury hotels on Sentosa Island, and also might appeal to travelers with business downtown, thanks to the free weekday morning shuttle service. Those who would prefer to stay right in downtown can expect to pay more for a comparable hotel; AMOY by Far East Hospitality is an excellent, if pricier, option.

This upscale 308-room hotel is situated in the heart of Singapore’s famed Orchard Road shopping belt, close to bars, restaurants, and multiple public transport routes. It has a modern and trendy vibe throughout, particularly at the well-reviewed restaurant and bar. Rooms are similarly stylish, plus they come with minibars, flat-screen TVs, and free use of a smartphone. However, some rooms have small bathrooms and views blocked by the herringbone-patterned windows. Though the hotel lacks a spa, it has a black-tiled pool and a small gym. Overall, it's a solid option for business and leisure travelers, but the nearby Regent has a full spa and several on-site dining options for only slightly higher rates.

Modern guest rooms include flat-screen TVs, mini-fridges, and electric kettles, while Club Room guests gain access to a lovely Club Lounge with extra perks and spectacular views.

There's also a restaurant serving local and international fare in a stylish setting, plus two bars. Despite all of its contemporary style, most rooms do feel a bit plain, and travelers seeking something with a spa might want to consider the Pan Pacific Orchard.

The 64-room Sultan Hotel is a lovely boutique in the historic district of Kampong Glam. Though there are few hotels in the area (most tourists choose to stay in downtown or Chinatown), the location is within walking distance of numerous sights. Constructed from 10 historic shops, the hotel has attractive period details including arched doorways, wood-beamed ceilings, and latticework screens. The rooms, however, aren't quite as charming as the lobby or the on-site restaurant. Suites have some attractive features and design touches, and standard rooms are decorated in clean, contemporary decor of whites and light woods -- but they're small, and bathrooms are cramped. Amenities are modern, however, and include flat-screen TVs, iPod docks, and espresso machines. Hotel highlights include the rooftop bar, and Pasha restaurant, serving Moroccan cuisine.

The three-pearl Louis Kienne Serviced Residences caters to long-stay guests -- so a minimum seven-night booking is required. Located at the northern edge of Tiong Bahru, at shortcut-packed 10-minute walk from the metro. The 96 suites have an understated elegance, and features like the rooftop pool and barbecue area are kept simple and functional. Breakfast is served daily in an air-conditioned space on the rooftop, but for other meals you either have to cook on your own or head out to get something. For an apartment-style hotel with river views and more features (like a gym and kids' game area), consider Fraser Suites Singapore instead. It's farther from the city center, but its free hourly shuttles are a reliable way of getting closer to the city's bustling center.
