Travel: Singapore - Universal Studio

[Monster Mummy]

Hi bekithia,


How is the service because the hotel price during the holiday season is different from the normal rate as I am interested as well.

Hi,


Can anyone recommend a good hotel that kids will like to stay at for Universal Studios?

Festive Hotel is the best choice for family fun. They have 4 hotels there of which one of them is for invitation only. But if you like to laze in the pool, Hard rock cafe is also a good choice. They have very nice pool with artificial sand to play with. that day I saw a group of boys gig a 0.5m hole!

The cost for a night stay at Festive hotel, Deluxe Family King should cost $260++ excluding breakfast. That’s fr sun night to Thursday only. Weekend rate is different. However, one needs to apply for Resort World membership to enjoy. Can do so online, but need to collect the card at the hotel. It’s free. One carpark space allocated for each room, n car entry to sentosa is free.


Normal published rate should be $400++ per night including breakfast.

Tips: what I did is that I also bought some resort world vouchers online at a 20% disc, so all in all, my 2 night stays come out to be around $520. It’s much cheaper than the packages tat the hotel offers.

Hope u all dun find me too calculative, but this kiasu gesture can help save about $200.

Did you also get the RS membership to get your discount. Is Battlestar Galactica opened already? My 2 dare-devil kids only want to go only if that ride is ready. For me, I don't even like tea-cups.

Thanks for info.

Yes, u need to get the Resort World membership card 1st before paying for hotel. But can get it all done on the same day. Just go to membership counter to collect card, then proceed to check in at hotel. All u need to do is just call up the reservation centre to book the hotel n date of your choice. Dun have to pay anything until u check out. But of course there will b penalty if cancel the booking.


This is also good for me, cos it can then stretch my visa payment by another month (or how advance you make a booking) cos I need not pay upfront, unlike when u buy their packages. Have to pay 1st. Can use the money for other purposes. Another of my KS doing

Thanks alot for info. Will try your method when we go next year, probably some time after the Battlestar operate again… just in case.
