I may have biz trip to SIN at the end of April. Amongst my corporate approved hotels are the Pan Pacific and the Regent...any thoughts/ opinions on which is better? I get about the same corporate rate at both $150.00
I'm actually leaning towards the Regent, given all the cruising I've done Regent ships...will any of those goldpoints get me anything there, I wonder?
Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry, but by demonstrating that all peoples cry, laugh, eat, worry, and die, it can introduce the idea that if we try and understand each other, we may even become friends ~~M. Angelou~~

We stayed at the Pan Pacific 20 years ago (gosh - that sounds like so long ago). It was a beautiful hotel -- however, it is a very long walk to the central area. I'm not certain where the Regent hotel is -- I would think that it is more central than the Pan Pacific (you may want to check out a map of hotels in Singapore). Have a great time!

Thanks Travelcat! I believe the Regent is more central/closer to Orchard Road. I'm leaning heavily towards it still ;)

Stayed at the Regent Hotel in Singapore and it was a fine hotel, located just a couple of blocks from Orchard Road and within walking distance of the Botanical Gardens, which are a must see. The tourist bus is also just a couple of blocks away as well. Enjoy.
