You know how it is in Singapore! Wine, be it red or white is so expensive you can almost guarantee a bottle of something "very average" will set you back SG$30...and it's usually...pardon the expression "CRAP"
Not the case at the Southbridge Hotel on the corner of Mosque Street and Southbridge roads in the heart of Chinatown.
Yes, it is a boutique hotel with rooms at affordable prices for travellers, but its Food and Beverage offering is really something to make note of here on Expat Choice
The first reason is because if you like a few glasses of wine this hotel offers them by the glass starting at $5 and the quality is awesome. Not some shady Spanish drop that is going to give you a hangover the next morning. This is premium wine at low low prices.
Think Rothbury Estate Sauvignon Blanc at SG$5 a glass or just SG$25++ per bottle, now that is value for money...better than what Wine Connection are offering.
This place has it all. Wine, spirits. again at SG$5 House Pour Whisky, Bourbon (Jim Bean Highball), Rum, Gin, Vodka, Tequila and Cognacs and Premium pours just SG$6.
Alcohol here is graded in three tiers. House Pours, Premium Pours and Super Premium Pours this is the same for all the wine - The most expensive Super Premium Wine still comes in at SG$35 a bottle. Unheard of in Singapore.
It sounds like I am being paid to write this profile but I am not. I like a wine or two, and for those of you who know me well, you would agree - I enjoy a few glasses at the end of the working day and I am always complaining at the cost and more so the quality of wine that is served across the Island.
It is our aim to seek out affordable day-to-day solutions that not only save you money but also give you an experience to remember.
The second reason I am so passionate about The Southbridge Hotel is because their food menu is extensive and the food is great quality. Be it a rib-eye steak or a bowl of Pasta, the prices yet again are affordable.
The Southbridge Hotel is a boutique hotel situated in the heart of Chinatown, making it an ideal location for business travellers and leisure seeking individuals. Our rooms offer a harmonious blend of modern fittings and luxurious linens.
