Super Singapore Part 2 - The Fullerton Hotel

The Fullerton Hotel lies near Raffles Place in the fabulous city-island of Singapore. Many times I've walked past the Fullerton Hotel, but never been inside - until last Friday. I was pleasantly dazzled with what I saw.

Goodbye, and see you tomorrow!

    The photos are all wonderful but I especially like the lamps at the lifts shot.

  2. It looks wonderfully cool in the hotel, perfect we have temps nearing 40C here in Roma and surrounding areas at the moment!

  3. If I am not mistaken, Fullerton Hotel was the Fullerton Building housing a government department. See how Singapore has so cleverly turned it into a grand looking hotel. The Merlion was sited nearby too. Great pictures.

  4. Craig, I wasn't fortunate enough to stay at the Fullerton Hotel. I'll probably need a much bigger wallet!

    Linda, I can't believe you're having that much heat in Europe! Surprisingly it wasn't over-cold in The Fullerton Hotel. Just comfortable!

    ordinary malaysian, thanks for the little bit of history :)

    Jag blev väldigt glad att du skrev och att du kommer att följa mig.

    Vilket hotell.
    Jag bara sitter här och gapar och ser ut som en fågelholk i ansiktet Så vackert.
    Där skulle man bo,men det kostar nog hur mycket som helst så jag får väl nöja mig med dina att titta på dina fina bilder.

  8. I think the room rates will stop you straight away but a day in photos just for the pleasure, it's beautiful. Like a small city by itself.
