Has anyone recently experienced the level of noise from the ongoing construction? I was thinking of booking a heritage suite as they have a good suite rate in late April, but I won't if the noise is clearly audible inside the room.

I got the Onsen Suite on a recent stay. My thoughts:
1. Nice having the private jacuzzi in the back, although inadequate lighting in a night time. Also means the deck chair/table on the mini balcony in the back can't be used to read/use computer in the evening.
2. No desk in the room.
However, I was pleased as a Platinum to be given a SGD$50 dining credit per day (I was told this is because they lack a lounge), late check out, and they noticed on my profile that I like sparkling water so 2 large bottles of Badoit were delivered on arrival. Very friendly and helpful service overall but I do agree the gym leaves a lot to be desired.

Updates from a recent stay as a Plat Elite:
- Upgrade to Heritage room. The system described by Horizontal is still in place.
- No more $50 F&B credit. Plats get free breakfast, amenity points or a gift (a Merlion statue)
- I did not hear any construction noises during the day.

Curious, did you try and ask for an Onsen suite during your check in?

Seeing this message "Rectification works will be carried out for Classic Premium rooms from 15 July 2019 to 23 February 2020 between 9am and 6pm daily. We will do our best to minimise any disruptions." on the booking page.
Seems like almost 7 months of rectification works is being carried out. Doesn't sound like minor works. Anyone knows if the property is finally renovating their rooms?
Anyone who stayed recently able to update on plat benefits? Wondering if it's still difficult to get 4pm checkout here. Planning to stay on a normal weekday.

Just stayed at Le Meridien Sentosa over the weekend as an Ambassador Elite member. Booked 2 rooms and I received 2 sets of complimentary breakfast (for 4 in total) - Check-in agent was nice enough to offer the complimentary breakfast for the other room. (You need to ask politely) Used 2 SNA for 2 rooms in 1 night and got upgraded to 2 Heritage Suites facing the monorail track/RWS.
As an Ambassador Elite member, I only received 2 drink voucher despite booking 2 rooms, but it's good enough. (This is a replacement benefit for no lounge)
However, a big bummer is that this hotel classifies itself as a "Resort", hence the 4pm guranteed late checkout for Platinum and above does not apply at this hotel. Again, the check-in agent was nice enough to give one room 4pm late check-out and the other room 12pm checkout.
This hotel seriously needs a lounge!

As per the hotel's official Facebook page, Le Méridien Singapore, Sentosa is closing for a full renovation at midnight tonight, October 31st, 2020. It will also be leaving Marriott tonight, and reopening in mid-2021 under an as-yet-announced brand.
Ugh, yet another Le Méridien leaving...

wow
sad to see them go,
loved their onsen suite, tho not as much as those days when they still have the in-room steam bath
their rates has also been very friendly for recent years,
even on F1 days which I actually booked for 2020 F1 race, sadly due to COVID-19, it got cancelled
