While it’s a running joke that Singaporeans “don’t need much space to have sex”, as quoted by Josephine Teo, we can’t exactly be utilising public staircases 24/7. As part of a conservative society, most of us live with our parents until the day we get married and move out. But this also means it’s hard to find time to have fun with bae while your parents are sleeping in the next room.
Not to worry if you’re craving some intimacy with your partner. We’ve compiled a list of 12 hotels with hourly rates that won’t break your wallet, so you can make use of the time to Netflix and chill as and when you want. Or, even if it’s just to cuddle and nap without the prying eyes of your family, we’ve got you covered.
Let’s admit it — we’re all familiar with what the name Hotel 81 insinuates. But if your main priority is a private space with affordable prices, then their $30 for 2 hours rate is definitely a bang for your buck. Especially when it comes to location, the convenience of having multiple hotels around the central area is clearly a win.
Fun fact: sometimes they also offer cheeky promotions for $69 per night, so you can call the hotel in advance to double check.
As read on Reddit: “What’s wrong with Hotel 81? I mean, yes, they are used almost exclusively for sex, but they’re reasonably clean, reasonably priced and reasonably functional.”
Rates: From $30 for 2 hours

Booking: Call 6748 8181 or email the hotel directly on the website
