We will be staying three nights in Singapore pre-cruise. We are thinking about staying at the Intercontinental. Has anyone stayed there? Or what's your favorite.

You absolutely can't beat Raffles IMHO. Lynn and I stayed there 3 days pre-cruise in '05. We did the rssc package. Arrived at the hotel at @ 0800 and they gave us our room immediately; a garden suite. It was large, quiet, and the hotel service was over the top.

Julie,
We spent a couple nights at the Intercontinental in Singapore in 2001. It was a very nice room. Large & quiet. One of the best sleeping beds with duvet ever. The hotel is about 2 blocks from Raffles as I recall. We could see it out our window and walked there and back for Singapore Slings! The hotel is at Bugis Junction (pronounced boo ghees) and attached to a shopping mall. The underground level of the mall is a food court that was simply astounding!

Julie,
When are you in Singapore? I am also staying a night or 2 pre-cruise this October. We will be staying at Raffles, which I have heard good things about.

We will be there from December 3rd - 6th, then boarding the Seabourn Spirit. Sheri, I think you are going on a similar itinerary to me? We are going to Vietnam, Thailand and Hong Kong.
A good friend of mine stayed at Raffles last year and LOVED it. We are going to transfer Amex points to Priority Club and stay at the Intercontinental.
