​​Singaporeans sure don’t shy away from stepping out of the box. From selling fried pig intestines and pig organ soup delicacies at street diners to inventing Super Trees, Singapore has an obvious fascination for the extraordinary! What’s more, their sense of experiment and adventure extends to hotel spaces as well. Here is our list of 5 hotels in Singapore that will leave you slack-jawed with their awesomeness.

 

1. Klapsons, The Boutique Hotel

Funky, luxurious, and compact. That’s Klapsons, The Boutique Hotel for you. The funk starts with checking in at the sci-fi-like reception capsule. Wait, there’s more! None of the 17 rooms in the hotel are designed to look like one another. So if you want to experience Klapsons completely, you’d have to stay here 17 times! And oh, none of these rooms have curtains or blinds in the shower cubicle. Kinky, what?
Tariff: Starts from SGD 317 per night

2. Llyod’s Inn

Want to experience rain and shine in your bathtub? Head to the 34-room Llyod’s Inn.
Get a feel of minimalist living in these rooms with clean black-and-white interiors, glass walls (with blinds, of course), and wooden detailing that matches the aesthetics of the outdoors.
Slip into the open-to-the-skies, separate outdoor bathroom with a tub, and get a natural tan while sprawled out in there. Sure there’s an awning over it too (for moments you want to avoid the specks of rain, say). Also, in keeping with the clean feel of the décor, almost everything in the room is hidden from plain sight. Looking for the ironing board? Pull it out from the drawer under the TV.
Tariff: Starts at SGD 265 per night

3. Wanderlust Hotel

Located in the heart of Little India, Wanderlust Hotel has some unique ideas to pull in the crowds. Comprising four levels, each level in the hotel portrays a different pop-art theme in its rooms. Though the entire hotel is done up in jazzy colours and quirky furniture (don’t miss the barber’s chair sitting pretty in the restaurant), it’s the fourth storey of the building that takes the cake with its nine loft rooms in five varying themes. With rooms categories called Whimsical and Pantone (with capsule-like rooms), the most ordinary rooms to check into here would be the Mono Deluxe. But even those have got bathtubs encased in glass!

If it’s a visual treat with a dash of spunk you seek in your living space, Wanderlust is the place to head to.
Tariff: SGD 331 per night

4. Ocean Suites at Resorts World Sentosa

Why live on land when you can doze off underwater, watching fishes? The spectacular Ocean Suites consists of 11 exclusive suites spread over two storeys. While the upper level is breath-taking too, with open living spaces, the real charm is the lower level. You get an incredible underwater view of over 50,000 fishes, all from the comfort of your suite.
The best of both worlds, eh?
Tariff: Starts from SGD 1,765 per night

5. The Pod – Boutique Capsule Hotel
