I had a pleasant stay at the Santa Grand Hotel East Coast, enjoying the competitive price and cleanliness of the hotel. The location in Katong is vibrant, surrounded by good food options and just a short ride from East Coast Park. However, my room was on the smaller side, and I found the breakfast options to be quite basic. Overall, it was a good base for my travels in Singapore.

My stay at Santa Grand Hotel East Coast was a mixed experience. The location was excellent for exploring local culture, and the staff were friendly and accommodating. However, I encountered significant noise issues from neighboring rooms that disrupted my sleep, and the room size was a bit smaller than I expected. Overall, it was nice, but not without its drawbacks.

The room I had was charming, featuring a skylight. but it was on the smaller side. Cleanliness was not an issue, yet the sound insulation left much to be desired; I could hear conversations in neighboring rooms clearly. The bathroom had modern decor and a nice shower, though the overall layout reduced privacy.

The small pool on the sixth floor was a lovely touch. perfect for unwinding after a day out. The area could use some updates, especially the third-floor corridor, which had a musty odor. Overall, the facilities were adequate but not overly impressive.

I had a lovely stay at Santa Grand Hotel East Coast. The vibrant neighborhood of Katong offered plenty of dining options and local flair. The service was impressive, especially when the staff accommodated my early arrival after a long flight. The room was clean and comfortable, but a bit small for my liking, and I noticed it was slightly dark due to the shuttered windows. Overall, it’s a great choice for a staycation or holiday.
