My boyfriend and I stayed here for about a week. The location is good. It is close to the Chinatown MRT, malls and chinatown area. About 15 minutes or 20 to Marina Bay Sands area. The building has an elevator. Tess…
Overview
ServiceWorld Chinatown is a unique new hostel located within Chinatown, with the Pearl's Hill City Park at its doorstep. FREE BREAKFAST and FREE HIGH SPEED INTERNET BROADBAND ACCESS - this is indeed a choice hostel in Singapore Chinatown.
The ServiceWorld Chinatown Hostel is a premier hostel adjacent to People’s Park, the site of the original historic Chinatown in Singapore, which is located at the entrance of the Chinatown MRT Station. Chinatown is known for its exotic and colorful crowded streets, authentic shop houses and the long stretches of eating places in various cuisines, cheap souvenir shops and shopping centers. Although this hostel is located in a crowded Chinatown street, one can still get close to nature to enjoy morning exercise or take a stroll in a garden setting, because the entrance to the Pearl's Hill City Park is at the rear of the hostel building.
The ServiceWorld Chinatown Hostel often acts as a central point for the discerning guests to visit the historic sites in and near Chinatown and numerous tourist attractions nearby.
This Hostel is indeed “A Home Away from Home”. It offers a very clean and comfortably spacious dormitory, a large kitchen, common area with TV, toilet and bathroom and a shower room. The Hostel is equipped with security-enabled electronic door systems and fire and smoke detectors for fire safety, a high speed wireless broadband connection for PCs, laptops, notebooks and PDAs, security cameras outside, TV, and fridge.

The common area is equipped with a computer and internet area and for TV viewing. Tables and chairs are available along the spacious corridor used as a common area for alfresco dining and relaxation. For exercise and recreation, the best feature is the city park located at the entrance of the hostel, with several hectares of land for outdoor recreation and exercise free of charge.

Location Information
The ServiceWorld Chinatown Hostel is located at the junction of Pearl's Hill Road and the Upper Cross Street. The nearest MRT station is the Chinatown Station that connects to the East West Line to the Changi International Airport. It is located on a third storey of a commercial complex and a leading supermarket is just right downstairs so shopping for some necessities is a lot easier. It is very close to cheap eating places that operate on a 24-hour shift. So close to many interesting points in Singapore, imagine how much you can cut in spending on trains, buses and taxis. You can walk within minutes to the famous Clarke Quay and Boat Quay along the banks of the legendary Singapore River, or to Empress Place, Raffles Place, Asian Civilization Museum, the Chinatown Heritage Centre, the Buddha Tooth-Relic Temple, Sri Mariamann Hindu Temple, the Chinatown Pagoda Street that is famous for its long stretch of shop houses. If you like to shop for apparels and electronics, the People's Park Complex, People's Park Centre and OG Department Store are our neighbors few steps away. And because you won't leave Singapore without a memento of Sentosa, you can quickly travel to the island because Harbourfront, the stepping door to Sentosa, is only two MRT stations away. Arab and Queen Streets and the Beach Road to take your buses to Malaysia and Thailand is less than 10 minutes by bus.
