Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

The hotel location is very convenient close to everything you need, shops restaurant, the best is comfy and room is very old but clean, I dropped the piece of paper near the table and it was their for 3 days, maybe they are honest ? not to pickup it and clean under the chair, check in process is click but people there working like a robot NO hospitality no smiles. Breakfast was terrible like 2 stars hotel. However over all is just fine as we don’t spend much time in the room and in the hotel

Hotel Grand Central, Singapore. located near somerset mrt dan Dhoby Ghaut mrt station, that's a good point. Not a grand fancy hotel but room is clean, building is well maintenance as well. Don't expect too much for warm hospitality from reception but so far everything is well explain and just express check in and check out. Hotel facility include small gym, swimming pool at rooftop, if your room inc breakfast (or you can pay by visit) it served in 2nd floor together with chancellor hotel. inside the room : clean room with TV with local channel only, iron board, hair dryer, standard hotel amenities (soap, shampoo, toothbrush, soap, comb) and safe deposit box. I was stay for 3 nites, the last night I got problem and the manager is make a phone call to take a report cause the room is not closed after cleaning, lucky my room is in the end and corner so no body will passed my room. hope this clumsy not happen with others. so far, everything is okay and happy for the hotel. good luck and good job for all the staff. Definitely recommended.

Pros: Near Orchard road and train station Water dispenser inside the room Average room size Uncles in concierge and security are helpful and mindful Cons: Frontdesk not friendly and welcoming except for that one young petite Filipina who is very accommodating… you can feel that they are not happy seeing guests.. you will think twice for making any request.. even housekeeping very rude and cannot understand a little english… Very disappointed…

As our flight arrival was early in the morning and the lady at the reception provided us an early check-in. We stayed for 4 days at the hotel. The best part of the hotel was its location, it is located at Orchard Road. Most of the shopping malls (paragon, center point, somerset, lucky plaza etc.) are located at Orchard Road. There is an eating joint just opposite the hotel and around 200 meters from the hotel there are lot of eateries behind Centerpoint mall. Breakfast at the hotel was just ok, didn't have lunch or Dinner at the hotel. For breakfast also, you have to visit the Hotel Chancellor, which is adjacent to Grand central. Most of the time we ordered from outside, that too Indian food. Swimming pool is located at the rooftop and it does have an awesome from the rooftop. Overall, it was a good stay at the hotel.

Despite being newly reconstructed the rooms look tired and worn-out. A complete make over is urgently required. The place is heavily used due to its central location. Breakfast was not available in the hotel and those who book bed and Breakfast have to visit the adjoining hotel for Breakfast. More courteous front desk staff will also be a benefit.

Very run down hotel with extremely poor customer service. Check in counter personnel need to learn how to smile and be a little bit friendly. Absolutely appalling customer service from the moment we approached the counter. Judging from all the other reviews on Google. I was not the only one who thinks the service from her was rude, obnoxious and arrogant. All they care about is making every cent out of the guests. The rooms are extremely mouldy and run down. Bathroom was absolutely disgusting with hair in the bathtub, soap scums on the shower screens. Minibar fridge was not cleaned, still with brown stains on the bottom shelf. The shelves were dusty and hair were found on the bed/under the pillows. The list goes on. This would have to THE most horrible hotel experience in my 10 years of constant work travel. It is not even worth a 1 star rating. ESPECIALLY not worth the amount we paid for the hotel. We would never recommend this to any of our family and friends. Please train your front counter team how to "Meet and Greet" all guests. If they do not want to be there, they need to find a new career. The only positive aspect of this hotel is the service from the security/ concierge, who was so helpful and friendly. He was an old man, but he was always so positive and approachable.

Apart from its location which is near Orchard road and a nice Thai restaurant opposite the hotel, there is really nothing much to shout about. Rooms are small, basic and old. There is a rooftop pool and a kids pool. Breakfast is simple in the adjacent hotel. Price is ok but we did pay double at about SGD280 on F1 weekend, which was way too expensive for this hotel
