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:

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?

Edit. Just saw some trip reports on it. Looks absolutely amazing. All F lounges should have that. I'd even pay extra once I was in a F lounge for that sleep room.

I wonder if you mistaken Silk air (MI) as Malaysian Airline (MH) if you are referring to the former, you might get TPR access. Don’t think you will get one if your next flight is on Malaysian airline as from SQ perspective, you have already arrived at your destination.

This probably won’t extend to you being able to use TPR the next day prior to your MH flight. But certainly no problems on arrival.

See the wiki on top of this thread. It is an UNPUBLISHED rule.

The lounge staff are 100% across the benefit and you will be welcomed in to the lounge. Just show your boarding pass.
Administrative staff may not always be across the nuances of the rules. They have provided advice based on the rules for departing flights, not the unpublished benefit for arriving flights.
Many FTers on this board have used the arrivals access. You won't have any problems

hmm, i asked SQ as well but the person came back with the below response stating even if I arrive in suites as my departing flight is on a separately booked ticket in economy, I dont get access to any lounges at all.[/QUOTE]
It’s rubbish, no problem with access on arrival with Suites BP.

How early to check-in
I’ve been reading mixed comments regarding the SIN private room / lounges. Scheduled to fly 12/31 SIN - FRA - JFK in suites. My hotel checkout is most likely going to be 12:00 noon because it’s sold out for NYE and SIN - FRA flight departs at 11:55pm (11 hour gap before flight)
How early can I checks bags / check-in?
Should I check in early and spend most of my day at SIN ? (Explore airport , private room , lounges)
or Should I book an additional hotel day stay in Singapore and arrive later to the airport ?
Thanks in advance!

Options? Check-in but head to the pool at Terminal 1 for a few hours. Book a 6 hour block at the airside transit hotel (for around USD60 ). Or, combination... have lunch at your hotel in the city, arrive SIN and check-in, head to the Jewel for a couple hours, clear immigration and have a drink at the lounge, head to the pool for a couple hours. That's... 8pm? Relax and enjoy the lounge for three hours before departure.
