HOTEL: Four Points by Sheraton Singapore

For those who were wondering where the former Riverview Hotel disappeared to, here lies the answer.

It has been transformed and re-branded to Four Points by Sheraton Singapore, Riverview – a modern heaven targeted at independent business travelers seeking a practical accommodation that cater to their work travel needs.

Nonetheless, I certainly think it can not only serve the needs of business travelers but also both local & foreign young crowds who seeks a stylish staycation away from the hustle & bustle of the city. Why so? Well, let me share more below!

1) Location

One of the feature I really adore about this hotel is its well-sitauted centralized position.

To be more exact, this 21-storey hotel sits along the iconic Singapore River and is a stone’s throw from the wining and dining enclaves of Robertson Quay, Clark Quay and Boat Quay. What this means is there is no boring nights with this hotel as you are going to be spoilt with a myriad of night spots to choose from!

What about the afternoon? If you are the kind that are not into using the hotel’s amenities. Rest assured as it is near to Great World City. This was where J & I did our lunch, shopping and even a cinema to catch the latest movie that afternoon!

2) Room (Premium)

Four Points features four room types catering to every traveller’s needs – Deluxe, Premium, Suites and Executive Suites. Nonetheless, we are reviewing the Premium Suite for this staycation.

The Premium room has more than adequate space not just to work conducively but also rest comfortably.

Soft, fluffy King-sized bed that the both of us did not get enough off even after having a good 8 hours of sleep. In my opinion, it might be a tinge too big for a single business traveller!

Simple, contemporary decors within the room with soothing shades of grey as the main theme of the room reflects a clean and sleek feel within the living space.





If I have to pick the main selling point of this room, it would definitely be this huge, eye-catching window that oversees a picturesque view of the city landscape lined with the iconic Singapore River!





This sofa at the ledge of the window is definitely a conducive environment to snap pictures as you can see! >< More importantly, also one for working!!

In fact, we spent quite a big bulk of that afternoon working here! I was busy clearing blogposts at one corner while J was busy clearing his interminable work mails on the other corner. When we are both tired, all we have to do is just to look at the window beside us.

Immediate rejuvenation! Work never seems to tire us out within this room!





Baths and showers are housed in tasteful marble-accented surrounds and come complete with toilet amenities!





One other thing I like about this room is it NEVER runs out of place for Selfies!

Look at how pretty the wall is in the toilet! In fact, one of J’s OOTD was taken within this toilet when some of his followers thought it was some fanciful studio!








Guess what? They have a Bathtub in the room too!!!

I was so grateful for this as I had a warm, bubble bath with my glass of champagne that evening which calmed every tensed nerve I had from the bump and grind of the stressful week!





Other features include a complimentary set of coffee and tea making facilities.

Nonetheless, the mini refrigerator is empty! Don’t be astounded as they purposely kept it free of hotel products so guests have the option to stock up on their own beverage or food if they so desire. All in the good spirit of independence!

Free bottled water is topped up daily & a large flat-screen TV is provided for relaxing entertainment! Would have been good we could watch TV from the Bathtub. Nonetheless, we wouldn’t have exchanged this pretty wall for that! Bet J feels that way else he would not have had his OOTD! Lol!


3) Facilities & Amenities

The view from the room is not the only noteworthy one. At least not till you have visited the fifth floor!

A beautiful free-form swimming pool is located on this storey and are open only to hotel guests.





Nice little pavilions lined the swimming pool for hotel guests to laze and sun tanned their afternoon away.





Two 24-hour well-outfitted fitness centers are also located on this level! Not extremely large ones but definitely well equipped to burn some calories.





From this point onwards, ‘Foodies out there! here is where you might want to tune in!’

4) FOOD

Four Points has two stellar wining & dining options for in- house business travellers and walk-in guests – The Best Brew, a newly innovated lobby bar and Four Points Eatery, an all-day dining restaurant with local and international a la carte and buffet offerings.

**Both of them have cool, covered al fresco spots right next to the spectacular Singapore River for those who prefer wining and dining outdoors.

Best Brew Bar

For those who is too lazy to travel to the nearby nightspots even with the FREE shuttle service to Clarke Quay MRT station near Chinatown and Orchard Road offered by the hotel, here’s the deal: The Best Brew

This social hangout hub located at the lobby is designed for guests to fire up their laptops in the open atmosphere of the bar, chill with friends, colleagues and business associates over a wide selection of local and international beers, tipples, cocktails and premium bites.

Live band entertainment is available almost every evening of the week which create the perfect chill out vibes for a break away!





If you are into fresh beers, one not to be missed in the Best Brew is their freshly-tapped Exclusive Bespoke craft beer: Tall Tale Pale Ale. I did not specifically drink it as I am not into beers but quoting from J’s IG post (‘It is so smooth just like lotion down the throat!’).

Aren’t spinning a tale literally here but I was just wondering if it was just as ‘moisturizing’ as well! Lol!

Time just whizzed by unknowingly in this bar…

Four Point Eatery

Breakfast Buffet:

I guess what we love best is their eggs! You can customize and order your eggs at the station 🙂 We skipped our breakfast because we were going to have our brunch buffet that day!

Nonetheless, it was quite a good spread of a breakfast! As I am writing this, I kind of regretted skipping their breakfast 🙁








Brunch Buffet:

Seafood Brunch on Sundays 12pm – 3pm
Price: $52/adult, $26/child
Price is inclusive of free flow of prosecco/ moscato and soft drinks.

For less than $60, you get to enjoy a good spread of seafood on top of the free flow of moscato! From prawns to crayfish! Since it is called Brunch Buffet, expect egg benedicts too. I helped myself to 3!

Soup lovers can find different soups there too – from cream based to chinese herbal soup!

















Thank you Four Points by Sheraton for hosting us!
