As a fresh SQ Gold, what are my lounge options at SIN and which one do you recommend?

Not sure what the Thai Airways lounge is like...

SQ may be the "World's Best Airline" (Skytrax!) but it sure as hell isn't down to the quality of their lounges.

Hearing that about the KF Gold lounges is pretty disappointing... I do have access to Diners Club lounges as well. I'm assuming SATS would be the best of them?

Hi I'm thinking of doing a mileage run for $329NZD to get to KF Gold. Just wondered do KF Golds see more availability when searching awards. For eg in the suites etc. Just wondering if it's worthwhile to try and get gold or whether to leave it. I'm based in WLG. Already have NZ Elite status.
Also does anyone know when next week SQ will announce their specials they notified of in an email? Is it likely to be Monday or more like mid week.
TIA

The SATS lounges are probably only slightly better than the Gold lounges. They do have a couple of showers though.

Couldn’t tell you about the sales. I did a mileage run myself a few weeks back but that was for a reward on PPS rather than maintaining PPS.

I have cancelled an award ticket end of May through phone (the cancel option was greyed out in manage my booking). Its been almost 2 months and the miles have not been redeposited back. I have called three times, each time.thry said they have expedite the process. I'm heading to Singapore next week, is it more effective to go to ions office to get this sorted out?

Am I missing something in the way that elite miles are calculated? My statement suggests I should have 2062 elite miles, but I only have the miles from the SQ flights. Or is this a bug? EDIT: ah, this is since my tracking period must have started at the beginning of July and not when I was matched to Gold...
