L Residence

The 1st room we had was old and especially the bathroom needs renovation! We had a leak in our room, so we got another room, which was much better and really convenient. Overall, the staff was very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was good. We really had a nice relaxing stay.

We had a friendly and positive email exchange with the owner before booking for three nights in February. Our flight arrived on time, but late at night, so we were expected after midnight. Upon arrival by taxi, the gate was locked, no outside lights were on, and the bell was not answered. Luckily, the taxi driver lingered and I had the owner's cell phone number. We called - he answered from an outside location- asked if we had locked ourselves out. No, actually, we've just arrived, as arranged. Whoops! He called the staff, who let us in. But for the friendly taxi driver, we could have stood outside all night. OK, mistakes happen, so we expected the owner to seek us out at breakfast and apologise. Didn't happen. "He hasn't come down yet", said the excellent staff. He didn't appear on day two or day three so we don't know if he exists at all. Bloody rude. As for breakfasts, OK, but the sliced white bread is of the backpacker hostel variety. And the stupid, programmed digital piano continually playing The Yellow Rose of Texas and Danny Boy ad nauseam drives you nuts. Switch it off! Definitely not the "family experience" you might have expected. Better value at Bayview Hotel, Bencoolen Road, similar internet prices and more convenient location. Wouldn't go back to L Res on principle.

We loved our visit to Singapore ! What a lovely place to stay! So much better than a hotel... we loved our morning jaunts to the Botanical Gardens (just a short walk from the house). Lovely friendly people, great food & a good place to introduce our 9 month old daughter to. Your staff, Fatimah was great - incredibly helpful & always with a wonderful smile !!

A wonderful "home-away-from-home" interlude on our honeymoon... loved relaxed breakfast on the terrace with the papers (can't do that in big hotels!!). ....Will send friends and family here !!

This is my first time staying here - I have been visiting Singapore quite often but never found this place before. I am glad I finally did - it's a wonderful place. So easy to get to places. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful - I felt very comfortable and welcomed the whole time. Food was great. And I love the dogs :-) (cute adorable small dogs) Looking forward to my next visit.

What a nice home!! It's really my dream house!! You have made my stay here especially memorable, thanks to the warm and friendly staff that you have here!! The chef's recommendations are really good. He's very meticulous in preparing the food!! Everything here's simply great ! Tiffany

What a Great home during my visit to Singapore -- Thank you for the wonderful service and care. We will come back again soon.... Terry R

Thank you so much for making our wedding night and honeymoon a special one. We took some amazing wedding photos, thanks to you. The house has so much character and charm... Please don't change a thing!! We will be back definitely!!! Thanks again p.s. The food was outstanding...

A very cosy and relaxing place. Great as a getaway from the hustle and bustle of the city life. Will definitely come again when in Singapore. Thanks for the great service.

Thanks for a great stay at your amazing house. It is wonderful to stay somewhere so interesting, peaceful & unique. We particularly love all of your interesting furnishing and antiques. :-)

A quiet corner of Singapore with great staff who are always keen to please. Walkable distance from the beautiful Botanical Gardens and easy to taxi anywhere. Excellent value for money. The pool in the basement was very refreshing after a long walk! We'd visit again! Sue and Roger

I would like to recommend LResidence as a wonderful place to stay as a stopover or when holidaying in Singapore. It is located centrally in a quiet street and is walking distance to the beautiful Botanic Gardens. The famous Orchard Road is only a short taxi ride or a pleasant bus ride away. The building itself has all the charm of days gone by and includes a magnificent foyer/living space with a beautiful chandelier, baby grand piano, polished floor and exquisite furnishings. The generous-sized rooms are beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean. Each room has a large high definition TV screen, a very comfortable queen sized bed and air-conditioning. The bathrooms are homely with many personal items supplied as well as soft white fluffy bath towels and robes. In the morning breakfast is served in a tropical sunroom adjacent to the foyer. There are many choices of breakfast cuisine served by the helpful and friendly staff. On the lower level a magnificent 13 metre swimming pool awaits to refresh tired guests or for those wanting some serious exercise. After 3 relaxing days at LResidence it was time for us to leave. It was difficult saying goodbye to the caring manager and staff, but alas, we had to return home to our own 'residence' in Australia. LResidence has to be the nicest place I have stayed and is in a class of its own. It is excellent value considering the wonderful facilities and the very reasonable cost. I doubt there is anywhere else in Singapore that offers all that Lresidence does for its guests. Thank you for everything!

I had a very pleasnt stay here. The staff looked after us so well with so much hospitality... will definitely return again!!
