Chinatown MRT station is the reference point the hotel itself uses: its official website describes Furama City Centre as a stay near Chinatown MRT, Clarke Quay and the Central Business District, and its amenities page places the property minutes from both Chinatown and Clarke Quay MRT stations. The street address is 60 Eu Tong Sen Street, Singapore 059804, which puts the hotel on one of the main roads along the edge of the Chinatown district, between the heritage shophouse streets and the riverside around Clarke Quay.
What sets Furama City Centre apart from the newer boutique openings around it is its long track record on the same site. Traveloka's listing records the building's construction year as 1984 and its most recent renovation as 2017, so this is an established Chinatown address that has been refreshed rather than a recent arrival. It is a full-scale, 4-star city hotel with 445 rooms spread over 23 floors; the room count appears both in Traveloka's property data and on the hotel's own site, which describes its "445 sustainable, modern rooms".
Sustainability is a recurring theme in how the hotel presents itself. According to its official website, Furama City Centre has obtained Global Sustainable Tourism Council (GSTC) certification under the GSTC Industry Criteria for Hotels and is a repeat recipient of the BCA Green Mark Platinum Award, Singapore's building-sector green rating. For travellers who weigh environmental credentials when choosing where to stay, that combination of a long-established building and formal sustainability certification stands out among the larger hotels in Chinatown.
In practical terms, Furama City Centre suits a wide spread of guests: business travellers heading to the CBD, families who need connecting or family rooms, and leisure visitors who want to walk out of the lobby into Chinatown's food streets and temples. Check-in starts from 14:00 and check-out is by 12:00, per the Traveloka listing.
The hotel's official rooms page lists eight room and suite categories, set out below from the entry tier upwards. Room names shown in Traveloka's booking widget can differ slightly from the hotel's own naming and availability changes by date, so treat this as a guide to the overall ladder and confirm the exact room, bed type and inclusions on the property page before you pay.
The Superior is the first category on the hotel's room list and comes with a queen bed. The official site pitches it as a comfortable home-away-from-home option, making it the natural pick for solo travellers or couples on a short city break who plan to spend most of the day out exploring Chinatown and the riverside.
The Deluxe is also configured with a queen bed and is described by the hotel as designed for travellers looking for a little more comfort. It is a sensible middle ground for couples staying several nights.
The Deluxe Plus moves up to a king bed and, according to the official site, measures 30 square metres with spacious work desks. That desk space makes it a good fit for business travellers who need to work from the room between meetings in the CBD.
The Executive Club room has a king bed and includes Executive Lounge access, which the hotel describes as offering free-flowing evening drinks and light bites. It is aimed at guests who want a quieter space to unwind after a working day.
The Premier Club King also carries a king bed, and the hotel highlights its cityscape outlook, plush bedding and a generously sized bathtub, along with Executive Lounge benefits that the official site says include breakfast and evening refreshments.
The Executive Suite is the most spacious king-bed option on the list at 44 square metres, per the official rooms page, giving extra room for longer stays or for guests who like separate space to relax.
For families, the hotel offers a Family Room with a queen bed configuration that sleeps up to four guests, and a Family Suite, also sleeping up to four, which the official site says adds a kitchenette with a microwave and refrigerator. Traveloka's listing also confirms that family rooms and connecting rooms are available at the property, which helps groups travelling together stay close.
Across the property, Traveloka's facility data lists in-room features including air conditioning, a TV with cable channels, a desk, a hairdryer, an in-room safe and a shower. These are recorded at hotel level rather than per room, so check the individual room description for the exact amenities in the category you book. Room voltage is listed as 220V.
Furama City Centre has the facility set you would expect of a large 4-star city hotel, with a stronger leisure offering than many of its Chinatown neighbours. The headline amenity is an outdoor pool, listed on Traveloka and described on the hotel's own amenities page as a swimming area with the sound of a waterfall and deck seating. The official site also lists an indoor gym with well-equipped fitness facilities; usage arrangements can change, so ask at check-in whether a time slot is needed.
The combination of event space, a business centre and 445 rooms means the hotel is set up to handle both corporate groups and family celebrations. Pets are not allowed at the property, according to the Traveloka listing.
The hotel's Eu Tong Sen Street address is its biggest practical advantage. The official site places it minutes from Chinatown MRT and Clarke Quay MRT, which gives guests two stations to choose from depending on where they are heading, and it presents the hotel as a work-friendly base for the CBD. From the lobby you can explore Chinatown's shophouse lanes, hawker centres and markets on foot, and the riverside dining and nightlife around Clarke Quay sit close by in the other direction.
Traveloka's nearby-facility data lists an ATM and banking services, a supermarket, a grocery store, a gift shop, a beauty salon, a hair salon and a laundry in the surrounding area, so everyday errands are easy during a longer stay.
Arriving by air, most international travellers land at Singapore Changi Airport and continue by MRT, taxi or ride-hailing car to Chinatown. Traveloka's facility list shows an airport transfer with a surcharge, but the listing's own transfer flag is not set, so contact the hotel directly to confirm whether a pick-up can be arranged before relying on it. If you have not sorted your travel yet, you can book your flight to Singapore on Traveloka and pair it with your room.
Traveloka records one restaurant and one bar at Furama City Centre. The main outlet named on the hotel's official dining page is Tiffany Café & Restaurant, which the hotel describes as offering Muslim-friendly a la carte all-day dining and buffet options, with hot savouries, fresh seafood and sashimi, Western and Asian favourites, and desserts. The official site lists lunch and dinner buffet sessions as well as a weekend and public holiday hi-tea; check the dining page for current timings before you plan around them.
The second named venue is the Lobby Lounge, listed on the official site as a dining spot in its own right and a convenient meeting point. Traveloka's food and drink data covers the range of formats on offer:
Step outside and Chinatown itself becomes the dining room. The district's hawker centres, kopitiams and restaurants are within walking distance, and the riverside around Clarke Quay adds more options for dinner and drinks. Between meals, you can browse tours, attraction tickets and experiences around Singapore to fill the rest of your itinerary.
Few hotels in Chinatown combine scale, history and leisure facilities the way Furama City Centre does. Its building dates from 1984 and was renovated in 2017, which gives it a settled, well-run feel rather than the experimental edge of a new opening. At the same time, 445 rooms across 23 floors mean there is usually a wide choice of categories, from queen-bed Superior rooms up to the 44-square-metre Executive Suite.
If you are still weighing options, it is worth taking a moment to compare other hotels across Singapore with similar locations and facilities before you decide, but for travellers who want Chinatown on the doorstep with full-service hotel comforts, Furama City Centre is a strong all-round choice.
When your stay is sorted, you can plan the rest of your Singapore trip in one place from the Traveloka homepage.
