Try booking a hotel in Singapore for two adults and two kids. It won’t take long before you have a headache. Family of five? Good luck. Singapore family hotel rooms are hard to find.
Some Singapore hotels won’t even let you put more than ONE child into the search.
But don’t worry. They do exist. We have found quite a few of them.
This is Family Travel’s list of all the family hotel rooms in Singapore. Each one has a map so you know where they are. Current room prices and the room types you need to book are also listed. We also detail the bed type so you can be sure each of you will have an actual bed – not a roll away.
We have even found some options for families of five plus.
One trick we found when searching for family rooms was to switch the number of children to three instead of two. Then, the family rooms seem to pop up in the list rather than the rooms with one double bed or interconnecting rooms. Note the family rooms are cheaper than two interconnecting rooms. But you need to book early to secure them.
