We've never stayed in a StR and interested to see what the StR service is like, however my impression is it's quite a dated hotel vs the JW and location is further from the tube and more of a shopping area?
Are any of the other Singapore work looking at?
Thanks for your help
I would go for the JW. The location is better for getting around the island with MRT Circle line, East-West line and North-South line all close by. Raffles City, Suntec, Marina Square and Chijmes are close by for a huge selection of shopping and eating. It is a modern hotel and has an excellent lounge if you have access to it.
