The Private Room is only for those departing and connecting to SQ F class.
The First Class lounge is for those connecting from First Class on Singapore Airlines, those flying First Class on Star Alliance partners, PPS members, etc.
You are allowed one guest into the first class lounge as a First Class passenger, but not into the Private room itself.
FAQ:
Q1: Hi, is there an official site with access rules for the TPR?
A1: There’s no official site other than stating the Private Room is for SQ F.
Q2: I'm flying XXX - SIN in First class and then SIN - YYY in Business/Economy class. Will I have access to TPR based on my inbound First class ticket?
A2: The ability to use TPR on arrival, and when connecting between flights is unpublished, but was mentioned in a Q&A session with Singapore airlines in 2017.
Just show your inbound boarding pass and be departing same day, or overnight, and you’ll be welcomed in.
So do not throw out your inbound boarding pass!

The Silverkris lounges are still open and the TPR is unaffected at this stage.

Hi All,
I will be landing in Singapore at 5am and have the option of either getting a connecting flight at 7:10am or 9:30am to Sydney. Just wondering if its worthwhile to take the 9:30 flight so I get more time at the The Private Room lounge. Or am I better off leaving ASAP to get home to Sydney.

Tough call. I agree with w4rd, five hours is probably too long. But two hours (essentially about 75 minutes allowing time for boarding your next flight) is perhaps too short if you want to relax, check emails, have a shower, do a bit of duty free shopping and eat breakfast.
If you eat on the flight to SYD, an hour is enough for a shower and a coffee.

I think in the evening it's 'just right'. A leisurly couple hours to drink some good champagne and relax before the flight.

Was there yesterday before boarding SQ 2. As stated by numerous other posters it's not worth making extra time to visit in it's current state. I much preferred the United Polaris lounge on the way out of SFO to the private room on the way home.

Arriving 2300 in SQ F from CGK, connecting 14 hours later to SQ (or TG) J to BKK (@ 1300). Will I be allowed in TPR during the morning of my outbound J class flight based off my SQ F arrival from the night before? Singaporeans are super duper strict, so I want to make be absolutely certain -- the FAQ is a little unclear about this specific situation.

Mixed F/J
Have 2 adults in F from JFK, 3 kids in business. Think we can get the whole family into TPR or the First lounge or are they strict about counting. Two kids are under five if that matter.
Also, if we leave the airport, can we re-enter through the First check-in area to go through the expedited security line?

Security is done at each gate (or set of gates) in Singapore, so there's no expedited security line before then. You can enter through the First Class check-in area, it might save you a few seconds with immigration, but I usually use the main immigration gates and it takes just a few seconds.
