Hotel: So Sofitel Singapore (No Club Lounge)
Status: Platinum
Vip Treatment: Booked three Stays with cheapest room (So Cozy) with APAC discount and 2,000 points and upgraded to So Urban once and So Studio twice. Extremely stylish, attractive rooms and hotel. Only 5 or 6 floors from memory. Welcome drink voucher and 10 am early check ins given for each Stay. Welcome Amenity was either fruit and chocolate, or fruit or chocolate. Free mini bar and free drawer with small snacks.
Reaction: First time in a So Sofitel. Very distinctive and artistic design with iPhone and iPad. Breakfast buffet not huge but high quality. Excellent staff in FO and restaurant. Concierge staff made mistakes . . . extremely courteous but did not seem very well organized. Initially very disappointed when Concierge failed to organize a requested Airport transfer which led to some frustration and time wasting at the airport. Thanks to ready availability of a brand of taxis with credit card machines was able to get to the hotel without having prepared Singapore dollars. Had called the hotel using airport wifi to find out what was going on so they were expecting me. I was very impressed with the welcoming attitude of front desk who immediately refunded my taxi fare from airport although I did not request it. Interesting Mango juice Welcome drink at check in provided in a test tube, separate from the normal Welcome drink. No particular view from rooms.

End of Singapore tour.
