The Fullerton Bay Hotel Review

A hundred rooms over the water at 80 Collyer Quay, on the western shore of Marina Bay.

Best for

A first trip, where being able to walk to four different Singapores mattersTravellers who want the bay from the room without leaving the old centreShort stays and stopovers

Why it stands out

Which side of the water it is on. It calls itself a Marina Bay hotel and the view says so, but it stands on Clifford Pier, which means the quays, the river and the museums are on foot rather than across a bridge.

Main trade-off

The area scores 5.0 for quietness and 6.0 for value, and this is the dearest of the seven picks. You are paying for the water and eating somewhere else.

Why we recommend it

Best on the water

Our pick for the centre because it stands on the water at Collyer Quay, on Clifford Pier — the one address in this area that is on the bay rather than near it, with Raffles Place and the museums a walk behind it.
