Check out Hotel Fragrance and Hotel 81.
They seem to have promotions right now as well.

Oh Touche...... the first to almost double the OP's budget. Not a
property agent by chance?

Did you try
www.latestays.com ? They have pretty good rates sometimes. Another alternative is to try the backpackers lodge. I think there are a few around Arab street/Serangoon area (which is reasonably close to bugis), like New 7th Story Hotel, The Hive, Prince of Wales, Bugis Backpackers?
Singapore is an expensive to stay...

7th Story's gone, demolished to make way for the next MRT line...

Hard Rock Hotel Sentosa a place for quarantine?
Replies: 1
First post
Such a pity..the place is really nice for a short staycation. Now turned into a quarantine location.

That’s the case for many of the nicer hotels. At least we are able to get some use out of them and help to keep the hospitality industry afloat.

SHN which hotel one gets allocated
Replies: 3
First post
I've seen people stayed in 5 star hotels whilst some stayed in 3 star hotel..
So how do they actually allocate who stays which hotel? Some lucky ones...
Last post
It’s just a game of luck, there’s no way to cheat the system. My father just returned from Miami a couple days ago, he was allocated the Fairmont...

Do all hotels accept rediscovery vouchers? Can they be combined?
I see the steps to redeeming it seems quite lengthy..

Klook and Changi Recommends are the easiest to use in my experience, have heard pretty good things about Traveloka as well.

You will need to update MOM asap when you found a permanent address.

So mysterious? Self-poisoned..? Drinks in their room? The whole story sounds so odd...

It might be totally unrelated, but that hotel is on the same corner as the Erawan Shrine which had the peculiar terrorist attack years ago.
