One of the few hotels in Singapore with a pool for around S$100 per night. The second time we have stayed here, the staff are very nice, surrounded by plenty of food options. The pool is refreshing though shallow (waist height), less than a.10 minute walk to nearest train station.

My family and I were very happy with the service provided during our stay. Ms. Sarinah from the Front Office was extremely polite, helpful, and always willing to assist with a warm and professional attitude. She truly went the extra mile to ensure my family was comfortable, and she is a wonderful lady.
I would also like to commend Mr. Zul from Room Service. He is very hardworking, trustworthy, and the room cleaning he carried out was superb. His dedication and attention to detail did not go unnoticed.
Overall, their excellent service made our stay pleasant and memorable.

Hotel 81 Tristar was in an excellent location. It was close enough to the city that we could easily travel to attractions but far away enough that we felt like we were surrounded by normal Singaporean people.
The staff were friendly and helpful and the pool was a good size and clean.

For that price range, it can't get any better. Rooms are large and comes with bathtub, which is rare. Has a swimming pool and one of the most affordable laundry around. Train station is walkable, with bus stop within a short walk and surrounded by eateries.
Hotel may be a bit dated, thus it does look old school and worn out a bit but overall for the price would gladly return without a heartbeat.

People complain about this hotel need to understand that it is old, guests eat in their rooms so thus ant will come!
Finding another hotel with large rooms and a swimming pool at this price is hard to find!
The taxi drivers are very impressed for the value!
Have stayed here many times with my young family and will continue to do!
Only ENTITLED guests complain!
