Copthorne King Hotel
Copthorne King Hotel is a mid-range hotel on the edge of the Singapore River, in the central part of the city. The building has rounded balconies on its facade, and the rooms are bright with large windows, wood furnishings, and a mix of brown and white tones.
The hotel was built during a period when Singapore was rapidly reshaping its waterfront from a working port into a modern urban center. The Singapore River nearby had served as the city's main commercial artery for centuries before the area was redeveloped.
The hotel sits close to the Singapore River, an area where old shophouses and modern office buildings stand side by side. The streets nearby are lined with restaurants and small shops that locals and visitors use throughout the day.
The hotel is within walking distance of two MRT stations, making it easy to reach most parts of the city without a car. Free shuttle buses to nearby shopping areas and transit hubs are also available, which helps if you want to avoid long walks in the heat.
Every guest receives a smartphone at check-in that comes with free mobile data and international calls to several countries, including the United States. The phone can be taken anywhere in the city, so you stay connected throughout your stay without needing a local SIM card.
