voco Orchard Singapore Staycation Review: Deluxe Room
We were very kindly offered a room on the 20th floor. Our Deluxe Room was spacious and homey with warm colours and dim lighting. Honestly, there's nothing very special about the room, but I still liked it because it was simple and clean. Also, the king bed was so comfy!
The Deluxe Room had a desk and a Herman Miller chair, as well as an armchair with a side table.
There are also amenities such as coffee and TWG Tea packets in the room for your consumption, as well as a Nespresso machine, bottled water, a mini-fridge, a safe, bathrobes, bedroom slippers, and an ironing board.
There's a smart TV as well, but we didn't manage to connect our phones to it due to connectivity issues. Maybe you'll manage to figure this part out!
I really liked the marble bathroom as it came with a bathtub and a large mirror. The image below shows what the bathroom looks like when you first step in.

Being a sustainable brand, voco bathrooms all sport sustainable Apotheke shower amenities.
voco Orchard Singapore has a gym and a swimming pool. The gym is open for 24 hours and is stocked with a full selection of gym-grade equipment. I usually don't see a lot of the people at the gym when I go on staycations, but surprisingly, there were quite a number of people working out at voco's fitness centre.
The swimming pool is located on level 24 and offers panoramic views of the Orchard Road city skyline. There are suntanning chairs as well as seats in the shade.
Now onto the highlight of the staycation - the steak dinner! Dinner was held at Opus Bar & Grill, located in the hotel's lobby. The place is considered quite atas so you should dress to impress!
We got to enjoy a premium sharing steak with two hours of unlimited wine for two! You can choose the kind of steak platter you wanted, and we opted to top up $20++ for a wagyu tomahawk. We had no regrets because the steak was absolutely juicy, flavourful, and tender.
During the stay, we also had $50 dining credits to use, which we used on room service. The food is so-so and is rather expensive, but the portions are large. The two dishes we ordered totalled up to S$62++.
We had breakfast on two days of our staycation. voco's breakfast selection is decent and has Asian and Western options. We had an Asian breakfast on the first day which was the Daily Wok Special with Dim Sum.
On the second day, I went for the Avocado Toast.
The staycation at voco Orchard Singapore was really nice! The rooms were comfortable, the service was good, and the food was pretty decent. Of course, the location was great too and my boyfriend and I could just pop by our favourite sushi place or go for a spin class at Somerset. I know many people don't think of voco as the first place to have a staycation, considering it's quite an old building and not the trendiest place to go to, but the offerings are worth the money spent, and I loved the wine and dine. I'm sure you'll enjoy it too.
Thanks for reading, and see you next post!
