Check-In: Wanderlust Hotel, Singapore

We are no strangers to off-the-beaten-path boutique hotels, but Wanderlust managed to spring up old feelings towards this ilk of hotels that has died down in the quest for absolute modernity. Singapore‘s best boutique hotel of 2011 is an art student’s haven. With every set of rooms designed by a different interior specialist, ranging from concepts of  silver whimsy to paper origami, this is not only a great place to stay at, but also a must-visit on any Singaporean itinerary.

Located in the heart of Little India in this spacious and ridiculously clean city, it serves as a merger between the modern and traditional. A stay in this hotel will dismiss any claims of Singapore being merely a “business city.” This hotel is a sign of the existence of the country’s fledgling art community.

Known for its ubiquitous rigidness, which is a remanent of its British colonial past, Singapore might be foreseen by the indochina-bound tourist, opting for the more laissez-faire massage-heavy cities. However, the colorful quirk of this hotel and its congenial service will give you a very different perspective of the Lion City.

Although it does not have 24-hour room service and the it has a small number of staff, its charm is in its coziness and an unrelenting need to stand out from the city’s array of contemporary accommodations.

Wanderlust Hotel is truly a must for every traveller in Singapore and also a historical pinnacle for the art community, regionally speaking. Also, the outdoors rainbow jacuzzi is unlike any other dip on earth.
