I'm also interested in comments on this subject. I'm Plat with SPG but nothing with Hilton - however the Conrad has fantastic rates on club level rooms for the night I will be in SIN. St. Regis was about USD $100 more.

Both great hotels. But very different. Different locations. Different clientelle.
Conrad is a true mature 4 star hotel in the Marina/Sunteck City district. Established and consistent, they are a fantastic hotel. The exec lounge is one of my favorite. Food and beverage options aren't prohibitively expensive.
St. Regis is a new 5 star hotel a few hunderd meters from the top of Orchard Rd. They are a higher class of hotel, but because they are new, still have a few bugs to iron out (ie. providing consistent service to all guests rather to only VIPs) More opulent, but that comes with very expensive dining and cocktail options.
It depends on your taste. If you want to be showered with 5 star service in a very fancy hotel in the Orchard area go for the St. Regis. If you're happy with a Great room, with a Great lounge, and are happy with the location, the Conrad rarely dissapoints.

Thanks from me as well. Unfortunately the decision has not been made any easier! Seems that they are both excellent properties. I'll probably go with the St. Regis for the extra SPG night/stay.
