Still a bit bitter about my stay here but what can I do. This hotel seems like it was designed specially for a business traveler who wanted a luxury like studio to stay the night... But what the hell is this place being labeled an Intercontinental for?
Room is indeed tiny. The whole thing reminded me of being on a cruise ship. As we walked down the hallway, I was struck by how close the doors were to each other. Club was good (Hendricks gin, Veuve champagne). But given the premium price (or 60k points), we would not stay here again. Room is just too small.
Pic's below are for a Club King Studio. We used Chase free night cert's and paid 130++ SGD to upgrade to Club.
As you walk into the room, you are basically immediately in the bathroom. This is with with door to my back looking from the bathroom into the sleeping area. Toilet is to my left and sink to my right.
The door to the toilet is the same as the door for the closet. The front door is just to the left.
Behind me is the toilet and front door. Shower stall just to the right of me. The bathroom is separated from the sleeping area by partitions that slide into the wall. This picture shows just one panel extended (can be pushed back 'behind' the mirror).
This is the sleeping area (with blind down). As you can see, the bed takes up most of the space. Just behind the wall on the left is a cabinet with minibar tucked inside. Above it sits a Nespresso machine.
Bathroom taken from the sleeping area. The front door is on the right. The mirrored door (with towels) is to the shower. On the right is the closet and toilet. There are panels (on the left) that can entirely separate this room from the sleeping area. Any service staff coming to your room immediately enter into the bathroom.
From the left, the front door, closet, minibar/coffee and TV, obviously. The in-wall bench is to the right of the TV and then it's the window.
