Cheap Accomodations
The problem with booking online is the online system for Singapore is usually not linked to directly to the hotel system and the online booking agent takes 1 - 2 days to confirm the booking. Give yourself at least 2 weeks before your trip to get your hotel. The walk in rates for hotels that are 3-stars and above are alot higher than the internet rates.
Ultimate Tips
- The Cheapest Backpacker Accommodations. These are cheap and most of them are located within the city. Look for those that are located near MRT stations.Singapore Guest Houses and Hostels
- Camp at the beach. It costs nothing except you have to bring a tent
(you can buy a six person tent at the local supermarket or departmental stores for about S$30 these days).
- East Coast Park. Located at the south eastern part of Singapore, tts a favorite among locals who go there for cycling, fishing and swimming. There is a plenty of restuarants and food stalls locate there so don't worry about food.
- Changi Beach Park. Also located at the south eastern part of Singapore (it is east of East Coast Park). this place is quieter and further from the city than East Coast Park.
