Pilgrims Rest Hotels from S$97

"Excellent "

"We were given a handicapped room (did not ask for one). The shower needs a longer curtain to prevent the water from getting all over the floor. You have to use half the towels to avoid flooding the room. "

"Overall. The Block is a good value for the money. Room was spacious enough and, more importantly, was clean and comfortable. This is a minimalistic hotel so don’t expect extras and even has some standards removed. There is a desk area and chair. No other chairs. The window has a nice large shelf which can hold your luggage. There is no closet but they have a rack in the room with hangars. No iron and ironing board. They do have basic toiletries and a hair dryer. My wife and I found the bed comfortable and nice to have a king size. The staff was friendly and attentive. Really nice check-in and additional help. Only two things that were a little off… 1 - The room window had a blackout curtain but it did not fully cover the window so light would come around the edges. My wife is a light sleeper so this was a challenge. 2 - The towels had a strong bleach smell but at least that means you know they are really washing them. We travel to the region several times per year and are always looking for a better place to stay. The Block is high on our list — with the only real concern being the light around the window. As a bonus, at least for us, is the Starbucks right in front of the Block so I could walk over for coffee. "
