I was a solo traveller staying for a single night in Singapore and would recommend NuVe Elements for a stay.

Room is cozy, clean and compact, but above all affordable, so it is perfect for any short stays that don’t sacrifice basic comfort.

Ammenities were all clean, and complimentary mini-bar service is always a refreshing treat after a long flight.

They were even kind enough to hold my luggage for almost a whole day.

Overall, a very happy stay and look forward to my next stop over in Singapore.

Stayed at Hotel NuVe to attend the Dingapore SVNS rugby. Great local transport options including a train 2 minutes away or 10mins by cab/grab to the stadium.

Rooms are small but efficient and super clean. Free bar snacks and drinks is a welcome arrival in nice air conditioning after a day in the humidity.

Was construction going on and there’s nightclubs downstairs that can make it noisy but otherwise would highly recommend.

Conveniently located, but poor facilities in room

The coffee maker was useless. The coffee pods didn't fit in the machine properly and the cup didn't fit in the receptacle. The room didn't have any window. Pillows on the bed were too firm and too high at least for us (we requested a softer pillow, but there was none) and caused issues sleeping well. The location of the hotel is good though. Room was relatively clean.

Nice but Very Small, Close to MRT

The hotel was in a location convenient to walking and close to the MRT. I booked the smallest room, and it was very compact. With just myself it was fine, but with two people it would have been extremely cramped. The floor was unfinished in one spot and looked more like a basement floor. The shower and the toilet share the same stall, which I didn’t love. However, it was a good price, it was clean, and the AC worked. Staff was great and gave me a Halloween goody bag upon check out.

Have a Short stay with low expectations

Good place for short stays with minimal luggage. Vinyl plank floor boards seep water throughout the room so don’t leave anything absorbable on the floor. Make sure you are comfortable with no privacy if you are staying with others in the room. We had to ask the staff to dust as there was a thick layer on the ledge under the AC unit and on higher points in the room. Good snacks and drinks in the fridge.

Major disappointment!

Travelled from Canada so not really familiar with hotel rooms in Asia. First impression as we entered the building from the street was good. Looked like a boutique hotel. Up to 5th floor to reception. Very small reception area. But nothing compared to the size of the room! Like a postage stamp. Maybe 2.5 m x 3 meters with a king bed. Luckily there was space at the foot of the bed to place suitcases. We were travelling 2 weeks in Asia so each had one piece of luggage plus one carryon. Had very limited space to hang clothing, 4 hangers and no space for more. No drawer space. Power receptacles were located clear across the king size bed so that meant climbing right the bed to access.
One chair, not built for comfort at all. Countertop was about 1 meter long with sink, tea kettle and supplies plus telephone taking up rest of space. The toilet/shower was adequate. Would be better if sink was in that area, would free up precious counter space.
We found the combination of high temp and excessive humidity very difficult to tolerate as we are not accustomed to it. The hotel had an outdoor sitting area by office. Patio furniture with no cushions and no shade. Plus very messy with plants that they sell. Jacuzzi on upper floor, a real mess. So no place to have down time to cool off.
With a bit of money and some planning, the hotel could be a boutique hotel. But as it is, I would rate it less than 3 star. $270 per night, what a disappointment. Holiday Inn offers way more for same $

Loved so much about this hotel, the area, location, staff, and cleanliness, but they should be more up front in their pictures and description that the TOILET IS INSIDE THE SHOWER of ALL ROOMS. Had I known that I would’ve never stayed there.

Wouldn’t stay again

When arriving in our room it unfortunately was not clean at all, there was a smell of damp, open drink can on windowsill, hairs in the bathroom, stains on the sheet and dust everywhere! The girls on reception were very apologetic and immediately moved us rooms to an upgraded room. Whilst it was better, there was still a few issues. We knew the room would be small but there isn’t much space to move around at all/store suitcases. The shower being in the same ‘room’ as the toilet also wasn’t ideal as the toilet would get soaked and the toilet roll would need to be taken out as it would often get soggy.
Whilst in an okay location we would not stay here again as we didn’t feel it was good value for money and impacted our view of the city!

The hotel is ideally located in central Singapore close to Chinatown/CBD and minutes from the river and Clarke Quay. Lots of dining and shopping options within walking distance. Well connected with the MRT and buses.The room was very comfortable and cleaned regularly, the shower was particularly good. It is a very compact room but that is to be expected. The only issue was there were renovations going on on the particular floor I was staying which meant quite a bit of coming and going but other than that the staff was very helpful and accommodating. Would highly recommend staying

This is a very small budget hotel. That said, it provides all the things a basic hotel does - towels, toiletries, some snacks, bottled water, etc. It also has a mini fridge, TV, and thermos for making coffee/tea. The hotel staff is great. Friendly and helpful. And they are generous with the free bottled water.

I guess my only real issue with it is its room size. It is very, very small. If you have more than one luggage, which I did, you could not open both at the same time. In fact, I had to close my suitcase and had it standing ao that housekeeping could open the door and get insde. This is ideal for short-time, budget travelers.

The location is really great. It’s my favorite thing about it and it makes up for all the hassle I experienced with the room size. One end of the block is Boat Quay and the other end is Clarke Quay. The train station and bus stops are just a few minutes’ walk. The area also seems safe. It’s not a busy street.

The rooms are very well laid out, however they are tiny so if you have a lot of luggage, it wont all fit. To save on space the toilet is in the shower cubical but somehow works.
We were told afterwards if you put up the do not disturbed sign before 4pm house keeping will skip you, so its worth mentioning. We had to requests new towels and water which were happily supplied.
Checkin and out was easy.
Can book a private jacuzzi for an hour too.

Pros: Good location, they give you some snacks and refreshments. Helpful staff.
Cons: Very tiny room, just a little bigger than the pods you get in a airport. I doubt if this room was a washroom and then later changed to a room. The floor of the room is made with a rocks that people use for washroom, which was dated. Towels provided were dated and might have been used for years. Literally a thin glass barrier between the washroom and bedroom that does not really separate the washroom out from the bedroom. It's a health hazard as filthy organisms from washroom can easily transmit to bedroom as there is not really good barriers. Bed is small and not good for a tall person. No washbasin is washroom, the washroom is 2 pc with a shower and a toilet bowl. Drainage is poor, water clogs up when you try to take a shower.

I can't comment about other rooms in this facility but will certainly not recommend this room to anyone

Decent stay

Warmly greeted by staff upon arriving, checking in was a breeze and intrigued by the eco-look with plants on the walls. Room was slightly small but bed was definitely comfortable. Main issued was poor sound proofing. Wee hours was awaken by trolly/luggage dragging across the gravel floor and throughout could hear other occupants speaking/laughing.

Overall Lacklustre

Lots of things were in bad condition along the shared walkways, making it look a bit scary. TV remote and fridge were both not working. Hence, we couldn't keep our drinks cold in the fridge :(

Was placed on 2nd floor, so could smell the cigarette smoke from outside very strongly. There wasn't any proper seal from the outside, so it was very overwhelming and nothing we could do.

The hot tub was the reason we booked this place, but the environment of the rooftop was disappointing too.

Good location, clean and friendly.

A nice functional room with good sized bed, full amenities, free (dry) minibar that was cleaned and serviced every day. Slight downside was that it was a little compact and the bathroom didn’t feel that private with a glass door that didn’t even reach the ceiling so you could see and hear everything. But the staff were very friendly and helpful and the location excellent.

Pros: very central, super clean, safe, walkable, easy access to metro, easy access to shopping, easy access to eating, quiet, decent value for central Singapore
Cons: I was in the bunk room, it was super tiny, not really enough space for two people, there was no room for a bag, let alone two bags and there wasn’t anywhere to put clothes, not even any hooks
But I would still recommend that room for a short term single traveler and the other rooms might be more accommodating.
