The Outpost Hotel Sentosa by Far East Hospitality in Singapore

The location is great and very quiet, with several hotels grouped together. The room wasn't huge, and we stayed on the pool-facing side. The pool on the 3rd floor was just okay, nothing special, but the infinity pool on the 7th floor was a huge letdown – it was tiny and only good for photos. Breakfast had very limited options and wasn't very tasty. The hotel smells lovely, and the shower gel and room fragrance have the same scent. The conditioner was incredibly good; I'm totally hooked. Honestly, I don't see the need to specifically stay in Sentosa, lol.

The location is convenient and they have a Chinese-speaking butler. Luggage storage is free, and the rooms are quite clean. However, the breakfast isn't very varied, and the congee wasn't the kind we usually eat; it seemed more like instant rice cereal.

I spent a night at Outpost Hotel and had a very pleasant experience. The check-in and check-out process was smooth and efficient, and the staff were welcoming. The swimming pool is lovely, and while the room is rather small, everything was clean, modern, and felt brand new. Overall, a comfortable stay.

Nice location, good facility, professional staff. The outdoor pools are very good and can see the fireworks on the beach at 19:40 and 20:40PM.

We made a last-minute decision to stay on Sentosa for three days and two nights, and didn't hesitate long before choosing The Outpost. I'd read reviews saying the main entrance was a bit hard to find, so we took a taxi directly to the island. If you set the GPS accurately, it's actually quite easy to find; you'll pass The Village Hotel, then drive a little further into the car park, and there's The Outpost. Actually, both hotels share the family-friendly swimming pool and gym facilities.

The hotel lobby isn't large but is elegantly simple, and the air freshener smells lovely. On weekends, they even provide thoughtful welcome drinks, and the children received a delicious chocolate milk.

The sea-view room offered beautiful scenery. I had mentally prepared for a small room, but it actually felt more spacious than I expected. It was well-equipped, with a capsule coffee machine and a filtered water tap, plus a sofa that could be used as a separate workspace (reading area). The bathroom had a wet and dry separation, and the shower gel and shampoo provided were pleasant and effective; the attention to detail was evident.

What was most therapeutic was the large floor-to-ceiling window. I felt like I could spend the entire day by the window, watching the changing sky. Sentosa's sunsets never disappoint and are worth seeing 44 times over. If you want to venture out, Palawan Beach is less than a ten-minute walk away, making it convenient to reach the suspension bridge and the inflatable water park.

Additionally, while the hotel breakfast didn't have an extensive variety, the food was delicious. In the evenings, the rooftop infinity pool and bar were lively. We could order food and drinks and even saw fireworks two nights in a row, making it definitely worthy of a five-star review.

The reviews seem to say there's a free welcome package, but apart from that, the service is exceptionally good.

The rooms are stylish, modern, and spotlessly clean, with a sleek black-and-white design theme that feels upscale yet comfortable. Location-wise, it's unbeatable for families: quick access to Sentosa's beaches, Universal Studios Singapore, and other attractions via the island's transport options.

Overall, my stay was very comfortable. The bedding and toiletries were excellent. The complimentary choice of five small snacks was a fun touch.

There's a large pool on the third floor, shared with the adjacent hotel, and it's quite spacious. It overlooks the MRT depot and various cargo ships. There's also a smaller, private pool on the rooftop. Both pools are very picturesque; in fact, even Singapore Airlines' safety video was filmed here.

I was assigned a lower floor, on the same level as the pool, which was convenient for swimming. From my window, I could just about see the Singapore Strait.

The gym is decent for a basic workout, with dumbbells and a small cable machine for strength training.

Getting to Imbiah and Beach MRT stations takes about the same amount of time. One route involves walking through a linkway and a parking garage, while the other goes down an elevator from the rooftop platform, then through another linkway to the bus stop side. I recommend the Beach route, as it's easier if you're carrying luggage.

The only minor downside is that the entrance area near the car park felt a bit cramped and was a little hard to find on my first attempt.
