exteriorThe exterior of the hotel is Tudor which is highly unusual in Singapore. The hotel started off as the Teutonia Club in 1900 and became the Goodwood Park Hotel in 1929. The facade is still characterised by a distinctive tower. The white building is flanked by Traveller Palm trees. Very historical in character.
lobbyThe lobby is reminiscent of the days of old with many preserved touches of the colonial past. Medium in size, there are ample seats available. Daily polished brass emblems and stair rails still adorn the common areas.
generalTruly a gem of a hotel if one like staying in a piece of preserved history. Rooms and suites are scattered around the 6 hectare compound in its several wings. There are many corners to explore on its sprawling grounds but a well kept secret is to find the Mayfair Pool - an oasis within an oasis. sg 03/09
