Have stayed at Hotel Fort Canning previously and really enjoyed it. This time not so much. The property has not been maintained well - the upholstery on the chair in our room was torn, visible dust and cobwebs, lots of paint on the building has cracked and flaked off, area around pool is quite tired with pieces falling off steps, tiles missing from pool, and canvas covers on day beds stained a mossy green. Also disappointed with the quality of food and drinks at the restaurant and bar.
There were a lot of events occurring this time we stayed which is absolutely fine for a hotel but the separation between hotel guests wasn't there. I was squeezing past conference attendees to get towels for the pool (in swimsuit) and felt like I walked through a wedding a few times. Awkward for me and not great for paying conference/wedding guests.
Plus sides are it is is quiet, in a beautiful setting, and the rooms as are well appointed and cosy.
Anyway, standards and quality have slipped here. All of these things are fine and acceptable at a lower standard of hotel but that's not what Hotel Fort Canning is pitched at, or charges for. Probably wouldn't stay here again as a result.
