Property Description

River City Inn is located in the heart of the Singapore city, less than 3 minutes walk away from the Singapore River, and 5 minutes walk away from a MRT (tube/metro) train station.

River City Inn is a family-owned and operated hostel. As travellers ourselves, we know that affordability should never compromise hospitality. Everything you need to provide a comfortable stay are available: Free Wi-Fi, Clean Sheets and Air-Conditioning.

But at River City Inn, we aim to offer something more. After you have explored the winding streets of Singapore, experienced the different cultures, delighted your taste buds and worn your shoes under the sweltering heat, we want to welcome you back. We want to offer you a place to unwind, write your journal, talk to other travelers and share stories. We aim not only to provide a bed for the night, but a space for the exchange of ideas, inspirations, personal reflections and growth. Because that is what traveling is about.

It has everything you need, and it's surprisingly spacious considering it's in the metropolis of Singapore. It was very clean and they had free water, cold/hot showers, laundry, privacy curtain, lockers were a bit dodgy but still locked. Honestly I was expecting a lot worse from a major( non backpacker ) city hostel. You can store your bags and it's very close to the metro stations + a seven eleven over the road. The staff were also very strict on security too which is nice.

Was one of the cheapest hostels I could find in Singapore. Good location, friendly staff, amenities were ok. Probably can’t find better value for money in my opinion.
