Hotel 81 Chinatown is located right in the heart
of Chinatown, which is a veritable representation of the Chinese
culture in Singapore.
Chinatown is a mix of the old and new: traditional
architecture lined up alongside modern buildings, Chinese opera
outlets next to karaoke bars, ‘fusion’ cuisine served
next to traditional dishes. In particular, visit the Chinatown Heritage
Centre located on Pagoda Street for interesting insights into the
history of the Chinese culture. The culinary experience in the Chinatown
area is simply spectacular, to say the least. The Maxwell Road Hawker
Centre, China Square Food Court and Chinatown Complex dish out a
comprehensive selection of local fare at affordable prices. Or check
out the huge collection of specialty eateries that can be found
at almost every street corner.
The famous Orchard Road shopping belt is about
5 to 10 minutes away, depending on your preferred mode of public
transport. Singapore’s premier entertainment establishments
are located within a 5-km radius of our Chinatown Hotel. Quite simply,
you’ll be spoilt for choices with the wide selection of easily
accessible attractions.
