Compare hotel classes by price

Across classes the spread is about two and a half times from the most affordable to the top end, and the best balance is in the Standard tier at a typical rate of SGD 49. The biggest single step is from Standard to Premium, a jump of around 75, and that is the decision point worth flagging.

Typical nightly rate is the median paid on Klook for a night in that class; rates are shown with their currency code. Based on Klook booking data, August 2025 – July 2026.

When travellers from Singapore book

Klook booking data shows the lowest typical rate in September at around SGD 62, and the priciest typical rate in January at around SGD 253 — travellers prioritising a budget trip should target September when typical rates are lowest. Most travellers lock in a room about two weeks ahead (typically around 16 days), and earlier planners book roughly 45 days out, so travellers usually reserve in advance and even more so for pricier months. All figures come from Klook booking data.
