This hotel is conveniently located in Chinatown near other comparable boutiques. I chose this place as it seemed to have more buzz than some of the others. I expected tiny rooms, which is fine given my modest budget. What the hotel may lack in space they made up for in quaint decor. Having also stayed at other hotels nearby as... More

We stayed two nights at Hotel 1929 and overall it was a nice place to be. It's right in the middle of Chinatown and close to the markets, shops, restaurants and bars. It's a boutique hotel, which basically means small, but the rooms are well laid out considering the space they had to work with, clean and well appointed. The... More

My wife and I stayed here in March 2012 and enjoyed every minute of it! The staff were friendly and helpful, especially the lovely lady serving the breakfasts. Yes the rooms are small and there isn't a lot of room for luggage but there is more than enough for two people (maybe some previous reviewers should have left their egos... More

The two of us each had one large suitcase. That meant that in order to get in and out of the room, we either had to stand one suitcase on its end, or wedge ourselves into the corner between the sink and the wall near the door. I couldn't do my daily exercises (sit-ups, etc.) because there wasn't enough room.... More

This is a very nice hotel in a nice part of Singapore, with lots of eateries and good cafes etc nearby, and transport options are also great. The rooms are small, but that is the case for most hotels in Singapore. What makes this place still stand out is its charm (not least because of the nice building), and the... More

We decided to stay at Hotel 1929 for our very quick 18-hour layover. I chose this hotel due to the reviews on TripAdvisor -- we weren't disappointed! We arrived around 2:AM in the morning and were greeted nicely upon arrival by the front desk. He gave us a great recommendation on a hawker stall down the street to grab a... More

This hotel is situated in a fantastic location, minutes away from China town and minutes away by foot to the nearest MRT in Outram Park. It may seem basic and small from outside, I thought this hotel catered for my every needs. Do not expect the same as a five star hotel, this is a three star but they have... More

We decided to stay at 1929 during our first trip to Singapore based on the tripadvisor reviews. We booked a deluxe room: in the case of this hotel "deluxe" still means extremely small with just a tiny window directly under the roof. Therefore, there was little noise despite the room faced to the front street, but also no means of... More

I chose this hotel based on the furniture style in the lobby, and the location in Chinatown. I had not realized that the rooms were, umm....tiny? So small, in fact, that I took a funny video of me watching TV, sitting ON my bed, and washing my hands in the sink....all at the same time. BUT....if you don't mind the... More
