If you are planning to stay in Singapore for a longer period of time and have a more comfortable budget, staying in a serviced apartment is the best option for you. Serviced apartments are hotel-like and furnished accommodations. A week’s stay is the typical minimum rental required in most of Singapore’s serviced apartments.

Many foreign professionals on travel to the country choose this arrangement over renting a unit altogether. Most serviced apartments are usually fully furnished and regularly feature the basic home amenities such as cooking appliances, laundry, and maid services.

It may have a master bedroom with a toilet and bathroom attached. More often than not, single room serviced apartments in the prime areas of Orchard Road and Newton Road are more expensive, with price ranges that start from S$1,500 a week. There are daily, weekly, or monthly lease arrangements for almost all serviced apartments.

It is best to book these places well beforehand if you want a wider field of choice. Most will offer a 20% discount for a monthly stay. You would also do well to negotiate special corporate, family, or long- term lease rates if you are staying for more than 6 months to 1 year. Lanson Place Winsland, Citystate, and Great World are three of the more popularly known serviced apartments in Singapore.

Cost differences depend on considerations of location, proximity to the city center or MRT stations, amenities, facilities, furnishings, size, and age of the structure. A 1-bedroom apartment’s weekly rent ranges from S$1,600 to S$3,300 and monthly rent of S$6,600-S$13,200. 2-bedroom apartments charge a weekly rent within the range of S$2,200-S$6,600 and monthly rent from S$11,900 to S$26,300.

There are very few weekly rent arrangements for 3-bedroom and 4-bedroom apartments. 3-bedroom apartments normally charge a monthly rent ranging from S$17,500 to S$24,350, while 4-bedroom apartments charge a monthly rental from S$20,500 to S$26,500.
