Hi There
Hopefully someone can help me! I am coming out to Singapore to join my boyfriend - he is working in a ship yard at Gul Road. I will need to stay in a hotel for around 10 days before we head off traveling for a bit. I am ideally looking for a hotel near or with easy access to my boyfriends work. Any suggestions?
When looking online the majority of hotels are in/around the city centre, which makes sense - i doubt many people feel the need to stay near a ship yard!?
any help would really be appreciated.
thanks
Rebecca

Try searching google with keywords like ''boon lay hotel'' ''jurong hotel'' Gul is located in the far west of Singapore Island and it is a mainly industrial area, so it's quite hard to find a hotel over there. But try google those keywords and you may be lucky. Remember to google under pages from Singapore or you could try Yahoo too.
I just did a search on google, I think there isnt any hotel around Jurong or Boon Lay, but I found one at Pasir Panjang which is probably about 15 mins drive away from Gul. It's Pasir Panjang Inn, dont know about this Inn, just saw it on the net. You might like to consider it, or find out more about it before making a decision.

I think there is a Fragrance Hotel just next door to that and another calle Sea View (with no view) but to be honest since it is still 15-20min away by taxi it is better to stay ~30min away and closer to town. The extra 10-15min won't make a difference in travel time but it will make a big difference to nightlife, eating, flexibility and comfort.

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

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...

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.

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.
