Top hotels in Jalan Besar
The Vagabond Club, Singapore, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel
Whiskey bar, yet appropriate for all ages. Quiet, calm in the middle of a busy and vibrant part of Little India. We arrived very early (9 a.m.) yet were allowed to check in after a brief wait for housekeeping to clean the room. Bottled water offered both in the room and at the front desk.
