Staying in Singapore presents the occasional struggle of finding something to do on the weekends. More often than not, we find ourselves in central Singapore, shopping at Orchard, taking photos at Bugis or planning a staycation.
For the latter, you may find yourself leaning towards booking hotels in the central area. But, let’s be honest, continuously going to the same place kind of ruins the novelty and vibe. If you’re craving a quiet retreat with your partner, hotels at the bustling heart of Singapore are just not it.
To save you the trouble of spending hours on the internet, we’ve compiled a list of 9 romantic hotels that are not in Central Singapore, so you and your partner can spend some peaceful quality time together away from the crowds.
