Singapore Staycation: Where to Stay for a Perfect Staycay Break

Traveling to exotic locales can be fun and exciting, but it can be just as much fun holidaying in your own home town, especially if you only have time for a weekend getaway. Instead of spending half of your short break traveling to and from your destination, have a staycation, scrap the travel time and get to know your own city better!

No matter what your plans, be it a trip with the kids, romantic escape for two, spa weekend or something else, you can find a fantastic break right here at home.

 

Romantic Staycation

Where to stay: The St. Regis, Singapore

With butler service, a deep-soak tub, cloud-like beds, a pool, sauna, relaxation spa and six restaurants all on-site, the St. Regis Singapore is as luxurious as they come.

In case you and your paramour do wish to venture out of this stunning hotel, you will find yourselves nestled between the Orchard Road shopping district and Singapore Botanic Gardens. Bliss.

 

Where to stay: Grand Park Orchard

Return at the end of a busy day spent strolling hand in hand through the district for a cocktail at Bar Canary, where you can admire the Singapore skyline by night. Lovely.

 

Family Staycation

 Where to Stay: Park Hotel Clarke Quay

The Park Hotel Clarke Quay has an impressive outdoor pool and relaxation spa, as well as babysitting and childcare facilities. Close to Robertson Walk, Chinatown Heritage Centre, Peranakan Museum, Boat Quay and the National Museum of Singapore, you and your family can take in some culture in the heart of Singapore.

While the hotel is within walking distance of the MRT, you may choose to take advantage of the free shuttle buses to other Park Hotel properties which may be closer to some of your destinations.

 

Where to Stay: The Elizabeth Hotel

Relaxing Weekend Spa Staycation

Choose from a variety of treatments, such as deep tissue or Thai massage; reflexology; detoxification or body wraps; body scrubs; aromatherapy and facial treatments.

With five restaurants to choose from, not to mention perfect positioning opposite the Funan DigitaLife Mall should you wish to go out, you can be sure to return home from your break refreshed and relaxed.

 

Wild Weekend Staycation

Where to Stay: Grand Copthorne Waterfront Hotel

With riverfront restaurants on-site, this 30-storey hotel is located on the Singapore River and is close to Robertson Quay, Clarke Quay and Boat Quay. It’s also near the entertainment district and shopping belt of Orchard Road and Chinatown.

The hotel is a 4-minute walk from Zouk nightclub, where your weekend’s frivolities can begin. With five distinct nightclubs situated within the complex, including a wine bar, Zouk is a club with a global reputation that attracts world-class DJs. So save yourself on taxi fares and walk there before stumbling home again at the end of the night.

 

Where to Stay: Pan Pacific, Singapore

In the heart of Marina Bay, with shopping malls and entertainment centres accessible by skybridge, the Pan Pacific has everything at your fingertips for a wild weekend. If the contemporary rooms, St. Gregory spa, in-house cocktail bar, nightclub and even blackout blinds for the morning after aren’t enough, you can order a limo or town car to take you around the city, wherever you would like to go

Getting out and about in your own country on a staycation can be just as much fun as a vacation when you stay in hotels such as these – or even more so!
