Ini kali pertama kami menginap di jaringan hotel Wyndham Hotels, yaitu Ramada Singapore at Zhongshan Park. Mungkin namanya tidak terlalu familier di Indonesia, tapi tahukah kalian Wyndham Hotels adalah grup hotel terbesar kedua di dunia? Di Indonesia, Ramada Hotel ada di beberapa kota besar, seperti Bali dan Solo. Sementara di kota-kota lain seperti Jakarta, Tangerang, Surabaya, dan Palembang menggunakan nama Wyndham Hotel.

It was our first time staying at Wyndham hotel chain, in Ramada Singapore at Zhongshan Park too be exact. Maybe the name is not too familiar to Indonesians, but do you know that Wyndham Hotels is the second largest hotel group of the world? In Indonesia, there are Ramada Hotels in several major cities like Bali and Solo. Meanwhile Wyndham Hotels are in other cities like Jakarta, Tangerang, Surabaya, and Palembang.

Lokasi strategis dan Mudah Dijangkau (Strategic Location and Easy to Access)

Ramada Singapore at Zhongshan Park lokasinya strategis. Hotel bintang empat yang berada di distrik Balestier/Novena bersebelahan dengan taman cantik nan hijau, Zhongshan Park dan satu gedung dengan Zhongshan Mall. Di mal ini kalian bisa temukan restoran, food court, toko-toko dan supermarket (yang tutup sampai jam 11 malam). Di dekat lobby hotel terdapat toko Seven Eleven yang buka 24 jam 7 hari.

This four-star hotel in the Balestier/Novena district is next to a beautiful green park, Zhongshan Park and is one building with Zhongshan Mall. At this mall you can find restaurants, food court, shops and supermarket (closing time at 11pm). Near the lobby there is a Seven Eleven shop that opens 24/7.

Untuk kenyamanan, Ramada Hotel Singapore menyediakan layanan free shuttle ke stasiun MRT terdekat, Novena setiap 30 menit sekali. Dari sana, kalian hanya perlu melewati dua stasiun MRT untuk mencapai area belanja terkenal, Orchard Road. Namun buat kami, lebih mudah menggunakan bis publik karena terminalnya berada tepat di depan Zhongshan Mall sementara terminal yang lain berada di depan Ramada Hotel Singapore.

For your convenience, Ramada Hotel Singapore provides complimentary shuttle service to the nearest MRT Station, Novena in every 30 minutes. From there, you will be only two MRT stations away from the famous shopping district, Orchard Road. However for us, it was easier to hop on public bus because the stations are just in front of Zhongshan Mall while the other one in front of Ramada Hotel Singapore.

Lobby and Lounge

Lobby Ramada Hotel Singapore sendiri luas. Menyatu dengan Heritage Bar and Lounge dan penuh nuansa Chinese. Sederetan sofa merah dan lukisan kaligrafi China menguatkan nuansa dekornya. Lobby-nya mengarah ke Ah Hood Road, bukannya ke jalan utama, Balestier Rd. Namun, kita juga bisa masuk melalui Balestier Rd.

Ramada Hotel Singapore lobby is spacious. It merges with the Heritage Bar and Lounge and is filled with Chinese nuances. A series of red sofas and Chinese calligraphy embellish it. The lobby is facing the Ah Hood Rd instead of the main road Balestier Rd. Nevertheless, we can enter from Balestier Rd.

City Room View

Kami menginap di City View Room yang viewnya mengarah ke jalan perkotaan sekitar Balestier Rd. Jendela kamarnya full satu dinding penuh dan ditempatkan working desk & bay window seat. Jadi, apakah kalian mau kerja di working desk atau membaca buku di kursi dekat jendela, pemandangan kotanya indah untuk dinikmati.

We stayed in City View Room that shows the Balestier Rd. The room has large, double-glazed windows and is furnished with working desk & bay window seat. So whether working at the desk or reading book on the bay window seat, the view is all yours to enjoy.

Room amenities didesain untuk kenyamanan. Di atas meja kerja kalian bisa temukan telpon, coffee/tea maker facilities, dua mineral water, dan bahkan ice bucket untuk mendinginkan wine. Di sisi meja tempat tidur juga ditempatkan alarm radio clock. Di sisi yang lain, terdapat mini refrigerator.

Zhongshan Park

Hal lain yang kami sukai dari Ramada Hotel Singapore adalah lokasinya yang tepat bersebelahan dengan taman cantik, Zhongshan Park. Kalian bisa menikmatinya jika stay di kamar Park View Room. Ada satu taman luas berumput hijau dan dua kolam besar yang jernih airnya di taman bernuansa Chinese ini.

Another thing we like about Ramada Hotel Singapore is it’s location at the beautiful Zhongshan Park. You can have a bird view of it if you stay at park view room. There are a large green garden and two large, clean ponds in this Chinese park.

Yang luar biasa, Ramada Hotel Singapore berada satu gedung dengan Zhongsan Mall. Mal cukup besar yang punya satu supermarket besar dan juga beberapa restoran yang menyediakan pilihan beragam, seperti McD, Bread Talk, Toast Box, Subway, dan Starbuck. Yang kami paling sukai tentulah, Food Fair, food court dengan harga bersahabat yang menghangatkan hati dan perut kami.

It’s fantastic that Ramada Hotel Singapore in the same building as Zhongshan Mall.

Museum

Saat check in, kami diberi welcome card dari General Manager Ramada Hotel Singapore yang berisi ucapan utk menikmati stay kita dan undangan mengunjungi museum Sun Yat Sen Nanyang Memorial Hall yang ada di seberang jalan dari hotel. Kita hanya perlu menunjukkan room key card atau bukti reservasi kamar untuk tiket masuk di hari ketiga kita di sana.

When checked in, we were given a welcome card from the Ramada Hotel Singapore General Manager that says hope we will enjoy the stay and have time to visit the Sun Yat Sen Nanyang Memorial Hall next to Zhongshan Park. We just have to show our key card or our booking reservation for complimentary access. On the third day we went there.

Menurut pengamatan kami, museum di Singapura berbeda dengan museum-museum di Indonesia. Meskipun sepi pengunjung kondisinya tetap terawat, bersih, dan sejuk ber-AC. Bangunan museum ini masih mempertahankan rumah asli dari tahun 1902, yaitu rumah yang pernah dipakai oleh Dr. Sun Yat Sen seorang pemimpin revolusi dari Tiongkok, untuk memimpin pergerakan revolusi di Asia Tenggara.

From our impressions, museums in Singapore are different from museums in Indonesia. Even though only few visiting, Sun Yat Sen Nanyang Memorial Hall is still well-maintained, clean and air-conditioned. The building still retains the original house from 1902, the house that was once used by Dr. Sun Yat Sen, a revolutionary leader from China, to lead the revolutionary movement in Southeast Asia.
