Wanderlust in Singapore

Het personeel is erg vriendelijk, alles is schoon, goed ontbijt - maar de kamer die wij hadden was piepklein, heel onpraktisch, de koffers moesten op de grond staan zodat je er over struikelde en er was geen palek om iets even neer te leggen. Ook moet je redelijk fit zijn om het bed in en uit te klimmen.

We spent 2nights here in April 2012. From Changi airport the hotel is about 30mins by Taxi at a cost of about 20SGD. The area of Little India is 'up and comming' and 'full of character' but we felt perfectly safe at all times. There is was a lot of construction going on around the area and Little India is a very busy area at night. Upon arrival, the […] staff were very informative and helpful. The Hotel is very secure with lift use requiring activation with the room card. We requested a quiet room and were given a room on the 3rd floor looking into the inner courtyard/lift. I was pleasantly surprised that the room was very quiet after reading other reviews. We could not hear any ouside noise at all and slept very well. The Mono room itself was quite spacious and the lighting effects very cool and easily changable to suit your mood. There was a 40ins (approx) LCD tv and the rain shower was spacious and excellent! Wifi internet was fast and the Nespresso machine and free soft drinks in the minibar a nice touch. The conversion to hotel is only about 1yr old so still looks clean and fresh. It is a 5min walk to the nearest HopOnHopOff type city tour bus stop and about the same for the MRT. Only 3stops/1 change to Orchard rd cost 1.2SGD Breakfast was good and included. We didnt eat at the hotel in the evenings as we were sampling as much Singaporean cuisine as we could...and there is lots of good cheap food available everywhere. Overall, we really liked our stay at Wanderlust, the staff are extremely helpful and accomodating, the hotel itself is quirky and cool but still very practical and the location is reasonably convenient. I would definately recommend it. Lees meer

Excellent hotel in an historic building. Staff is helpful. Breakfast is comprehensive.

Wanderlust is unique. The rooms are not large but they have great design features and the staff does a great job of making them nice. You can’t spread out but if you can resist that temptation the space works great. The location is just off the main drag in Little India so you avoid the noise but are still just steps away from everything. The breakfast […] is very good; the bar is pricey but also very good. I would stay here again but ask for another room just to see what the other rooms are like. Lees meer

Wanderlust is a PEARL in a very rough sea, but this is overcome by convenience for getting around. Beds were the best. Not hotels fault about the Maxi taxi service. If visiting would again would stay there.

When your selling yourself as a hip -groovy hotel, attention to detail is fundamental to maintaining the image. It’s the little things, isn’t it. - My cab driver and I drove around Dickson Street 3 times looking for this hotel. Apparently having a name or a street number at road level is too cool for this establishment. - First impression are very important. […] While the reception staff were great, the reception area felt cluttered and tied. Suddenly a photocopier appears, then ‘other’ stuff. The area becomes a working office - rather than a portal into a design experience. - My hotel room usually doubles as an office when I’m on business. The expectation of a desk or even a comfortable chair some how has eluded the designers brief. ( A logical option was to work at one of the tables in the closed restaurant. The restaurant manager was far from helpful and refused to allow me to sit in the corner and work on my computer). -The restaurant suffers from the same creeping issues as the reception. It has become cluttered with detritus. Stacked chairs and and other storage items do nothing but take the edge of the ambience.Far more effort needs to be put into preserving this. -- The included breakfast does not reflect the image the hotel is trying to portray. No consideration to offering what I would consider the basics: Fruit salad? That couldn’t be too hard. Or even Bircher Muesli? Overall I was disappointed with my stay at the Wanderlust. The management need to go back to basics and pull out all stops in preserving the original intent or risk the dangers of slipping into mainstream mediocrity. I was lusting after a more wonderful experience. Shame. 2 Stars. GlobalMate. Lees meer

First, this an amazing funky little hotel. The staff is very nice. They smile all the time and take great care of you. The food from the restaraunt is fantastic. Each room is exciting and individual. They include a Phillips iPhone/iPod dock, Nespresso Machine 8-) and Keihl's toiletries which are usually found in very high-end hotels. Unfortunately there […] is also a design flaw that cannot be overlooked. The rooms do not have any ventilation in the shower which resulted in excessive mold in the shower and moldy odor throughout the room. I also cannot reccomend this hotel to the business traveler since there is no desk and the included wireless only allows you to connect a single device at a time and id very difficult if not impossible to switch between. Each time I wanted to switch between my laptop and my iPhone I needed to call the front desk and have them reset the wireless account for my room. In summary, if they can address the mold issue this hotel would get all 4s or 5s. Lees meer

The location was convenient, the staff very friendly and the service in the restaurant spot on. I was lucky and could benefit from the special weekend rates, so I stayed in the "Monster" - Room, which was fun. Could also have a brief look into other loft rooms when they were prepared for the next guest (Otherwise they would not allow due to privacy […] rules. This is totally acceptable). The Espresso machine was highly appreciated, too. Can recommend the hotel for holiday and business travellers. Lees meer

I loved this hotel. The location was good, the rooms were great, the staff were quite helpful, and the breakfast excellent. The wifi was strong and free. There was not a single taxi driver during my stay who seemed to have even the slightest idea where Wanderlust was located. I swear that on one trip we crossed the causeway into Malaysia! Some thought […] might be given to the hotel identifying a landmark nearby as a beacon for taxi drivers. An excellent value, and a fine business hotel. Lees meer

Das wanderlust Hotel ist ein Design Hotel mit etwas anderen Zimmern als erwartet. Das Panthone Zimmer ist sehr klein, es fehlen leider einige Ablagemöglichkeiten. leider ist das zimmer sehr sehr hellhörig zur Straße raus. Das Restaurant unter dem Zimmer hat bis 4 Uhr morgens betrieb und ohne ohrstöpsel kriegt man kein auge zu, wenn man lärm empfindlich […] ist. das frühstück ist super, das restaurant hat eine sehr gute Küche.Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und zuverkommend. Mir hat einfach nur das Zimmer nicht gefallen. Ansonsten ein schönes interessantes Hotel. Lees meer
