Price is roughly the same for a comparable suite at either hotel for my date (so price is not a factor).
Here's what I've been weighing:
- JW Marriott:
- Highly recommended with excellent reviews.
- Located near Marina Bay Sands and many attractions in that area.
- Main con is that it feels like it's in more of a business district. I also don't love the décor from the reviews I've seen.
- The Edition:
- New hotel and it matches my preference for style and design.
- Situated on Orchard Road, close to the Christmas lights, which sounds appealing.
- Main con is that we don't shop, and I know this is in the main shopping area.
Can someone please help me decide?
I think the answer is in your comparison already… read it again with a fresh pair of eyes
If I were you I would take Edition. Just because its in a shopping area shouldnt stop you from staying there. Plus why would you stay in a hotel where you dont like the decor
