If you book incorrectly, you're screwed.

My experience with the Arianna Hotel in Singapore was extremely bad. I booked a four-night reservation for this hotel through Hotels.com on July 19, 2025, which cost me a considerable sum. However, I made a mistake in the dates and booked and paid for the stay at the Arianna a month too early. I realized this the next day and emailed Hotels.com to move my date forward a month. Hotels.com tried four times to persuade the Arianna management, but they refused to cooperate. Later, I read many bad reviews about this hotel.

Stay away. Better value elsewhere
Location- amongst little india area with Indian restaurants that rarely open.15-20mins walk. Quite a distance to get anywhere in the city
Staff: rude,abrupt, unfriendly
Room: our triple room was cramp. In need of renovation. Blanket smell and haven’t been washed in ages. No under sheet. Room is leaking in wall. Floor dirty. We were being shuffled between rooms as they fix the leaking problem in the room
Wifi: drop out , slow. Ended up buying my own sim plan. No wifi access in lobby. No room viewing

This place is good enough for someone who comes for short stays (probably a day or two) and by themselves.
Rooms are extremely small.
The TV in my room didn't work. I had to ask for staff to fix the airconditioning remote (which they promptly did).
Having said this, the location is great. Mustafa centre of right opposite and great food options all around, some even open 24 hours a day

Not enough blankets for 3 adults they gave us Only 2. Too thin and dirty towels we have to buy our own towels across the street. No drinking water. The money we paid for Pesos 33,386 (SGD 756) is not worth it. Need improvement or renovation.

They have TV, but doesn't even work at all. Family room, but too small and inconvenient. The pictures online are definitely deceiving!!! Don't ever book here, you will be doomed.

Owner must raise to standard Singapore condition

Ariana hotel owner should invest to improve the substandard conditions of the hotel to the correct Singapore standard. We do not want to come back to this hotel again. Unbelievable that this condition is tolerated by Singapore. We got sick in this hotel. It took us 4 days to recover. It might be coming from the environment. Customers be careful. Think twice (or 4 times) before booking this hotel! The workers acted right and polite. They tried their best to do their job in spite of the conditions of the hotel

Booked a standard double room but they provided another room when i checked in. The room they provided did not match with the pictures on the website. It was a very small room with barely any space. When i asked them about it they said they don't have any room. When i kept asking they finally switched us to another room the next day I wouldn't recommend this hotel.

2 star hotel in good location, rented one room with no amenities only one kettle, Wi-Fi was down at the time and you needed to go to the reception area to access one, but Singapore has cheap SIM card with all the data one needs.

No complaints from this hotel, as I only needed a bedsit room during my week stay in Singapore.
The room had mouldy walls being without windows would do with lick of paint and ventilation improvement and yes of course would stay the same hotel because of the location and it was reasonably priced too, the housekeepers was good friendly

The good thing about this property is that it is very centrally located around Mustafa Shopping Center which is open 24 HRS. In addition, it is close to MRT Station and City Square Mall.

With pros.....there are cons too which are as follows:

1) The mattress was sick with hard springs which kept us waking all night long.

2) The A.C. in the room is regulated by the reception with no remote in the room which means that in case you feel cold in the middle of night, you got to wake up and call the reception to regulate or turn off the AC for you which was really disgusting.

Apart from that, it was fine.

The hotel was very...very ..dirty. The first room had water leaking from AC so they changed us to another room which was smelly, dirty sheets and blanket with a hole and very crammed. So we requested for another room for which we paid extra. The room they gave us was slightly bigger but same state. Later after shifting in almost after an hour we came to find out was that the toilet was not working. As you seat to relieve your self everything flows out n is all over the bathroom floor. Despite repeated request they never bothered to repair the toilet nor change the room. So could hardly stay in the hotel room so was using the Mustafa Centre washroom now and then. Was a bad experience. Ll tell my friends and all I know never to go there. My payment was non refundable so was helpless moreover I was travelling with an old aunt so may be they were taking advantage of the fact that both of us were ladies. Didn't expect this at Singapore where there is fine everything that dirties their country how abt these small hotels. This kind of hotel ll give a bad reputation to hotel .com as well.

Simple & sufficient stay

My stay was good. It was sufficient enough as a basic room, with beds and shower. The rooms were simple and small, so it can fit in a small wardrobe, bed and a chair, with some walking space. As we didn't stay much in the room, this was sufficient for us.

The aircon was a problem because it was centralised, so any change in temperature must be done through the reception counter. For a budget conscious traveller, who wants convenience of 24hrs shopping and eating, or convenience of travelling, this hotel can be considered.

Affordable bare bone hotel room in Singapore

The hotel is situated within Little India. Location is good and well connected with public transport (MRT station & bus stop within walking distance) with 24 hours supermarket and Indian and Chinese restaurants (Swee Choon Tim Sum is good for late night eats) nearby. But don't expect much apart from a good enough bed, clean sheets, hot shower, air-cond, small TV, mini fridge and hair dryer. The bathroom/toilet is so tiny, it's the smallest I have ever seen in my whole life. Sink was dirty but at least toilet bowl was clean. The room has no window and pretty tiny too. Not too comfortable for longer stay.
