As of July 2023, breakfast for Elites is in the restaurant (no welcome gift choice required), and evening cocktails are in the 3rd floor lounge. The lounge opens at 9 AM for beverage service.

Haha, yes they should take down the awards from 15 years ago. They can put them back up when they win some new awards.
So there is no lounge open yet? That's disappointing. It was supposed to be open earlier this year.
It's a nicer hotel than the LM, but I like the LM more! Much more!

I have been told several times that "The executive lounge will be opening in a few months". I have a stay booked for next week so I called to ask about the status. I was told it is under construction but there is no date announced for it's opening.

After much to-ing and fro-ing -- and re-reading advice from previous contributors -- I went back to the Sheraton as I got one of those web-only deals on spg.com: SGD216 per night for two nights. Thanks!

I was told last week that they expect it to be open at the end of June. God knows they're making enough noise building the thing...

Yes, I saw many different representatives from the Ministry of the Environment (some holding manuals on Asbestos) in the elevators...(some of whom tried to cover up their stick-on "badges" when I looked at them)

BTW the MOE building is just across the road from the hotel.

Their (official) presence simply reinforces the fact that there is work going on within the building (possibly the lounge)....although both times I was there recently, I couldn't hear a thing! ^

More likely they went over there for lunch, or attended a seminar at the hotel ......

I see that if you do a booking now that there are rates with "Club Lounge Access" so I guess it is finally open. The cheapest rate for today is S$240++ for a Deluxe Non-smoking, Luxury Pillowtop Bed (Great Spore Sale rate) and the same room type with club access is S$380++. With a price of S$140++ for the club use, it must be some club. Tower rooms rates are also S$140++ more for club access. This makes the Platinum club access benefit worth a lot.
Any reports??

The "Towers" package adds "Full Breakfast [for 2], 8pcs Drycleaning [or laundry per day], Butler Service" for about S$100 to 130++ per day. A decent deal if there are 2 people and you have lots of laundry. When I have booked the "Towers" I do not know if the room would have been any better as in each case I got a suite upgrade. In the past I think I only paid S$80++ for the towers package. YMMV
The combo of towers and club access (S$240++ extra) is way overpriced as you are redundantly paying for breakfast.

Thanks for the updates and good advice. ^
I've been upgraded to the Towers level a couple of times. The laundry, breakfast buffet, and evening cocktails in the lobby were nice. I didn't get upgraded when I paid higher rates; it seems like it was just hit or miss.
We'll have to wait for reports on how good the lounge is.
