The Vagabond Club, Singapore, A Tribute Portfolio Hotel

If you are like me, tired of the sanitized business hotels, then Vagabond is for you too. I absolutely loved this hotel for its unique style and atmosphere. The interior design, staff uniforms and vibe makes you feel you are on a game reserve somewhere in the jungles of India or the Savanah in Africa but with a splash of China too. Excellent breakfast and drinks, amazing staff and in a neighbourhood that's fun, real and easy. A special thanks to Jennifer at reception who made me feel welcomed from the moment I arrived early one morning and continued to brighten my days with that big smile. I will definitely stay here again and I highly recommend this hotel for anyone looking for something out of the ordinary. The only downside is the fact that the hotel doesn't have a gym. However, there is a gym across the street that you can sign up for a few days.

We last stayed four years ago and are glad things were just as good as our last stay. The basic room we stayed in last round was rather small and decided to get a Deluxe Club Room this round. Due to low occupancy during our stay we managed to snag an upgrade to a Courtyard Room which was much appreciated. The room was definitely much bigger than their basic room and led to a much more comfortable stay. The evening cocktails at the Whiskey Library was also fantastic, with 3 cocktails and 3 Ala Carte dishes each, it was sufficient for a light dinner. The package also included breakfast the following morning. There are also no shortage of great dining places in the vicinity which we also utilised during our stays here. We will definitely be staying again in future if prices remain as reasonable. Thank you to the wonderful staff for the great service and making for such a pleasant stay!

A fantastic start to our world trip. The staff and management were fantastic and always helpful. The breakfast was delicious and there were plenty of options and available until 11.00 am 👏🏻 Our room (suite) was the most comfortable place to come after our days out in Singapore. And absolutely the ‘funkiest’ place we’ve ever stayed…we miss the lift montage.

The hotel was absolutely beautiful We enjoyed every night there Even though hubby tried to walk my legs off LOL The rooms were clean and comfortable with lots of interesting art on the walls It was close enough to everything that we didn’t have to walk to far

Our stay at The Vagabond Club Hotel April 7th-12th. What a wonderful experience! From the decor, to the location and the best part of the Hotel…The Staff! The Hotel itself is eclectic, unique, romantic and interesting. All of the normalities of a place to rest your head were met and exceeded. The beds were very comfortable. A/C cut right through any humidity. Showers were as hot as you’d want. Breakfast was delicious. Drinks in the evening hit the spot and jazz and whiskey nights were smooth. The location was nearby many of the interesting sites to see and NOT amongst the high-rises and city center but not too far away. The Hawker Centers were truly our favorite places to visit and several great recommendations came from The Staff. Two very memorable events were a part of the trip. This was our 32nd Wedding Anniversary trip that happened to coincide with my (Richard’s) birthday. Aarti at the front desk happened to notice on my passport my birth date and arranged a spectacular surprise brought to our room while we were out exploring suggested places from Aarti and others on the staff. A complete surprise but so greatly appreciated! We almost missed the surprise as it was in the other room. Oh, what was the surprise you may ask? A birthday cake/pie that was made with apples and strawberry slices on top! My favorite pie is Apple Pie! How did they know!? The pie was accompanied by champagne which accentuated the apple and strawberry flavors. This stepped up an already memorable trip to an UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCE! We would like to extend a very gracious Thank You to everyone at The Vagabond Hotel for such a wonderful time. Thank you for chatting with us and sharing the history of the Hotel, Singapore and the Owners. Thank you for your recommendations on places to visit. Mostly, Thank you for being so kind. Sincerely-Richard and Diane Lovell
