The breakfast spread was great and the rooms were fine and comfortable. The staffs were friendly amd helped to fix some issues pretty quickly.
The room toilet door needs to be changed as they were rusty and broken at the bottom. Swimming pool was mislabelled. It states 1.5m for the deepest part of the pool but when I went in, I was already tip toeing in the pool just to reach the bottom of the pool, and I am 1.69m. Even my dad at 1.75m was tip toeing. All the depths of the pool needs to be relabelled, or it would be dangerous for others. The room TVs needs upgrading and proper wire connections so that every channel can be watched clearly and hear the sound.

Thistle Hotel is no doubt a beautiful hotel. It stands majestic despite 30 years of wear and tear. They have a lovely pool area and gym facilities, and the Glass restaurant whips out a fabulous buffet breakfast for the hungry guests. The front desk ladies didn't seem friendly nor were welcoming. Possibly the language barrier. However, there was a gentleman named Sam who was very well-spoken and efficient in handling our issue with roaches in the room. The housekeeping staff were also friendly and helpful when we requested bath gels and toiletries. Overall, we did have a wonderful stay.
Thistle needs to eradicate its roach problem. They have a beautiful hotel, and the critters are slowly taking over. The management has to tackle this problem as guests will definitely be put off by these pests.

I like the place that the hotel located, I like hotel's lobby and buffet lunch and the swimming pool.
Room was big but too much dust and bad smell that not good to take breath properly. Did not get any breakfast because room was booked without breakfast, Bed totally horrible because the bed both side were very slippery and me and my wife going down in whole night and my daughter only stable in middle, middle mattress was very foamy. So management should take care of all those the problems. thanks

the view from our room, nearby restaurants, location is wow. spacious room but at 3am onwards I don't know who switching on/off the stand lamp repeatedly 3 times. that's not a big deal for me, I feel entertained.
A bit slow upon check-in due to their system was down. We came from our long flight (15 hours journey), that's why feel a bit tired.

1. The renovated room not included proper wardrobe 2. Long queue for the breakfast (0800-1000), with limited seat for guest especially during weekend. No tentative/option offered by hotel to guest & let them frustrated without available seat or meals. 3. Guest highly advised book for room only without breakfast which will be frustrated for the rate paid. 4. Bathroom facilites mostly not proper installed or not functioned.

The breakfast was good, not too heavy. Room is superb. I like the location most as it is accessible to most places that I wanted to go/visit.
1. Access to basement parking a bit too far. 2. Reservation via booking.com, I didn't know which type of rooms have connecting doors. I had to call the hotel personally to ensure I got the required rooms.

Good room size with seaview good colour scheme.
Shower did'nt work well, telephone line was out, breakfast que too long for table, restaurant not friendly for less able people ( too much stairs climbing ) food variety/ quality can be improved. Need stoppers for main door / toilet door ( door knob hits mirror ). We were in #515.

1. Super king sized bed
The open parking area was poorly lit. The passage way connecting the hotel to the basement carpark was poorly lit. 1st deluxe seaview king room 1. Toiletries could have been better 2. Our carpet infront of the toilet was damp from the first day we check-in and throughout our stay. 3. Only body towel were available. No hand/face towel. 2nd deluxe seaview king room 1. Were given the corner room which has a rounded thick pillar in the middle of the room. 2. Run- down toilet 3. Run-down cabinet 4. Toiletries could have been better 5. No hand/face towel

We love that our room got upgraded and facing the sea/Singapore. The room is huge + bathtub. I think previously was a connecting room but they decided to make one room as a living room and kitchen. The swimming pool was well maintained. The area is near all good food from the mamak, kfc, Lazy Monday, goreng pisang etc
At night when we switch off the lights in the kitchen, the cockroaches came out crawling everywhere.
