Accommodation (2023)

Accommodations in Expensive Singapore may be your biggest anxiety, and largest budget item. I explained in this page:

Singapore is small, and highly urbanised. There is 720 sq km of land on Singapore, and 5.6 million people (approximately), and these residents of Singapore needs a place to stay. At the same time, pre-pandemic, we attracted almost 20 million tourists to Singapore each year (and hope to do so again, post-pandemic). And we only have 70,000 hotel rooms. (In comparison, Bali attracts 1/3 the tourists, and have more than half the hotel rooms of Singapore. Correspondingly, the hotel rates there are cheaper. Not that I am recommending Bali for your travels.)

But there are low-cost options.

Singapore is NOT going to be as cheap as Bali, or Chiangmai, or Hanoi, but there are (relatively) low costs options.

Hotels under $50 (as at 2022)

Hotels under $100 (as at 2020)

Hotels above $100 but less than $200 a night (2023)

If you prefer hostels/pod/capsule accommodation...

Please note that all videos belong to the respective YouTuber who published the videos, and may be their personal experience at the time of the booking. Your mileage may vary.

Note also that room rates may vary with occupancy and vacancies. And season. And how far ahead you booked. And other factors beyond our control.

In other words, if you cannot get the prices mentioned in the video, look elsewhere and don't be a Karen.

(Unless you happened to be NAMED "Karen", in which case, you do you!)
