From the moment I arrived, the hospitality stood out — warm, welcoming, and attentive. The staff were incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to make sure I felt comfortable and at ease throughout my stay. The atmosphere of the hotel felt like a home away from home. The rooms were clean, cozy, and well-maintained, with thoughtful touches that made the space relaxing and inviting. Every interaction with the team — from reception to housekeeping to the cafe staff — was met with kindness and professionalism. If you're looking for a place in Singapore that offers both comfort and heartfelt service, I highly recommend The Initial Residence Inn. I’m already looking forward to my next visit! ##### Sunita Stayed 7 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### koji May 23, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities 凄く皆んな親切で良かった ##### koji Stayed 16 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Feb 21, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Séjour de 6 nuits à deux personnes Séjour de 6 nuits à deux personnes dans cet hôtel. La chambre et spacieuse, et la salle de bain très grande. Nous n'avons pas utilisé le coin cuisine, mais tout semblait être fonctionnel et à sa place. Le frigo est très grand pour ce type de chambre et pas trop bruyant. La climatisation est bruyante, nous l'utilisions en journée lorsque nous n'étions pas dans la chambre pour la refroidir. Nous n'utilisons pas la clim pendant la nuit. La chambre se réchauffait petit à petit pendant la nuit, mais pas au point de devenir désagréable. Les arrêts de bus ne sont pas loin de l'hôtel ce qui permet de rayonner sur tout Singapour en utilisant les transports en commun. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 6 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### CHEE HWEE Mar 17, 2025 ##### CHEE HWEE Stayed 9 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Raju Dec 14, 2024 ##### Raju Stayed 6 nights in Dec 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Pan Pacific Singapore](https://www.expedia.ca/Singapore-Hotels-Pan-Pacific-Singapore.h6594.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Boss](https://www.expedia.ca/Singapore-Hotels-Hotel-Boss.h13307850.Hotel-Information) > > [JEN Singapore Orchardgateway by Shangri-La](https://www.expedia.ca/Singapore-Hotels-JEN-Singapore-Orchardgateway-By-Shangri-La.h906062.Hotel-Information) > > [30 Bencoolen](https://www.expedia.ca/Singapore-Hotels-30-Bencoolen.h19789202.Hotel-Information) > > [Shangri-La Rasa Sentosa, Singapore](https://www.expedia.ca/Singapore-Hotels-Shangri-La-Rasa-Sentosa.h6519.Hotel-Information) > > [Furama RiverFront](https://www.expedia.ca/Singapore-Hotels-Furama-RiverFront.h46753.Hotel-Information) > > [Carlton City Hotel Singapore](https://www.expedia.ca/Singapore-Hotels-Carlton-City-Hotel-Singapore.h6076571.Hotel-Information) > > [Studio M Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Singapore-Hotels-Studio-M-Hotel.h3153356.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Singapore](https://www.expedia.ca/Singapore-Hotels-Fairmont-Singapore.h861823.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Park City Hall](https://www.expedia.ca/Singapore-Hotels-Grand-Park-City-Hall.h892942.Hotel-Information) > > [Shangri-La Singapore](https://www.expedia.ca/Singapore-Hotels-Shangri-La-Singapore.h22322.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott Hotel Singapore South Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Singapore-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Hotel-Singapore-South-Beach.h9636009.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Mi Bencoolen](https://www.expedia.ca/Singapore-Hotels-Hotel-Mi.h19665227.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Singapore Clarke Quay by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Singapore-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Singapore-Clarke-Quay.h6485265.Hotel-Information) > > [PARKROYAL COLLECTION Marina Bay, Singapore](https://www.expedia.ca/Singapore-Hotels-PARKROYAL-COLLECTION-Marina-Bay.h328749.Hotel-Information) > > [Raffles Singapore](https://www.expedia.ca/Singapore-Hotels-Raffles-Hotel-Singapore.h20409.Hotel-Information) > > [Orchard Hotel Singapore](https://www.expedia.ca/Singapore-Hotels-Orchard-Hotel-Singapore.h553888.Hotel-Information) > > [Carlton Hotel Singapore](https://www.expedia.ca/Singapore-Hotels-Carlton-Hotel-Singapore.h892568.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis Singapore On Bencoolen](https://www.expedia.ca/Singapore-Hotels-Ibis-Singapore-On-Bencoolen.h2330793.Hotel-Information) > > [V Hotel Bencoolen](https://www.expedia.ca/Singapore-Hotels-V-Hotel-Bencoolen.h6543975.Hotel-Information) > > [Oasia Hotel Downtown Singapore by Far East Hospitality](https://www.expedia.ca/Singapore-Hotels-Oasia-Hotel-Downtown-Singapore.h13455138.Hotel-Information) > > [Crowne Plaza Changi Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Singapore-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-Changi-Airport.h2057692.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Singapore Orchard](https://www.expedia.ca/Singapore-Hotels-Hilton-Singapore-Orchard.h19078.Hotel-Information) > > [The Fullerton Hotel Singapore](https://www.expedia.ca/Singapore-Hotels-The-Fullerton-Hotel-Singapore.h892940.Hotel-Information) > > [M Hotel Singapore City Centre](https://www.expedia.ca/Singapore-Hotels-M-Hotel-Singapore-City-Centre.h552973.Hotel-Information) > > [The Ritz-Carlton, Millenia Singapore](https://www.expedia.ca/Singapore-Hotels-The-Ritz-Carlton.h28540.Hotel-Information) > > [Conrad Singapore Marina Bay](https://www.expedia.ca/Singapore-Hotels-Conrad-Singapore-Marina-Bay.h41139.Hotel-Information) > > [Novotel Singapore on Kitchener](https://www.expedia.ca/Singapore-Hotels-Novotel-Singapore-On-Kitchener.h906127.Hotel-Information) > > [Singapore Marriott Tang Plaza Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Singapore-Hotels-Singapore-Marriott-Tang-Plaza-Hotel.h23818.Hotel-Information)
