Hi there.

I never go Singapore before and I wish to go in the end of May 2010.(3 days 2 night)..I did search for those reasonable price hotel such as Hotel 81 and Fragrance hotel (rated as 1 star hotel)

It is ok to go for?..I just worry 1 star hotel is no good

never tried before... if cheap then u can go try lo... first coach also departs from Holiday Villa subang and goes to "The plaza" which is nearby golden mile... both these 2 places are anyway abit of a walk to the nearest MRT though... but most coaches that stop at golden mile, they have a tendency to have long rest stops like 45 mins to an hour. First coach only gives you 20 minutes restroom break... so depends on your preference also la...

Oh Thank you.

Coz this is my first time taking bus to Sg.
Aeroline a lil bit costly and it will stop at Harbourfront. Is ok to stop at Harbourfront?

yup, personally i perfer Aeroline more than first coach. Even i stay near sembawang, Novena is the nearest option for me. But the comfort u get during the 5 hours journey in an Aeroline coach its really much better compare to first coach. first coach got not much difference from those Larkin bus, only thing is its much more managed and clean. Aeroline do gives you the 1st class feel.

Oh I see. There is a station at Corus Hotel. I can direct buy the ticket from there right?

p/s: I don't have credit card cry.gif

There are 3 Aeroline stops in addition to Corus hotel in KL. Google and find more info.

All of them stop at Harborfront which is the ferry stop attached to Vivo shopping mall. MRT station is right there and the monorail to Sentosa is on the top floor. It's a pretty decent mall but I got bored very quickly to be honest biggrin.gif

cool...thanks!

i've booked Aeroline.. RM200 to-and-fro inclusive of 3%... why do we need to pay 3%? processing fee?

Maybe is the banking transaction for the Sg.
I just bought it via counter. No processing fees. RM 180 nett go and return.

cuz i searched for maps....the marina bay station is not where i want...which was weird
and when i search for marina bay sand or around it....there were no station....only bus

I just back from Singapore.
You have to stop at Marina station then go opposite the road. There is a bus station and take the bus No. 133. S$0.90 (if I not mistaken) to reach the Marina Sand Bay hotel. Just follow the people (tourist) coz most of them stop at that bus stop.

If you want to walk from the station, approximately 15 minutes.

what abt just take bus no.133 directly from bugis to the hotel?

I`m not sure whether the bus 133 got pass by Bugis. You may look at the directory board on every bus stop.

thats really complicated for some1 who is not familar with SG  biggrin.gif

i can suggest that juz take the green line to Raffles Place n walk to Boat Quay n then Clarke Quay from there, its really nearby, well within 10min, n definitely much faster n easier than hav to change line 2 times more  smile.gif
*
Yup. for those who wish to walk and sight-seeing. The scenery is awesome.

SG MRT is very convenient and the people there is really very helpful.
