Staycation - Naumi Hotel

Occasionally I browse Groupon to see if there are any good deals, or anything to buy (you know that saying, a woman will pay $1 for a $2 item she doesn't need if it is on S-A-L-E). So I saw this Groupon deal on Naumi Hotel along Seah Street for $288 nett. I previously passed by it with hubby back when we were still child-less, and thought that it would be a nice luxury boutique hotel to try out. But rates were around $400-ish after taxes, which I felt was too expensive. So when I saw the deal, I thought it would be a good time to try it out.

We got the Habitat Room, which was really small. However it did have the minimal necessities, including a nice King Bed, shower, and the sink was island-style. I liked the fact that they had Apple TV so we could airplay stuff from our iPads and iPhones, but the wifi connection was quite spotty. The furnishings did remind me of W Hotel Sentosa Cove, which we stayed in Feb 2013 for my birthday.

One nice little touch is that they had complimentary mini bar, which consisted of 2 packets of chips, miniature bottles of some hard liquor (didn't pay much attention), 4 cans of soft drinks and 1 can of beer. The cost is minimal, but was a nice touch, as it was good to chew on something while watching movies when the kids were sleeping.

The rooftop pool is quite nice, with cool edgy type of furniture. It featured a nice view overlooking Raffles Hotel, Raffles City; generally the City Hall area. However the pool rules does state that no kids under 5 years were allowed. Luckily we were the only ones using the pool.

While the staff were quite pleasant during our stay, and the location was quite accessible to Bugis/ City Hall area, for the usual rates that they charge, I think it would be more worth to stay at other Hotels that have more facilities.
