Astro Flyer Posted March 22, 2017 #2 Share Posted March 22, 2017 we are going on the sapphire princess in Jan 2018 out of Singapore. I'm looking for accommodation close to where she docks, but I can't find where she docks. Can anyone out there help?Thanks in advance :cool: Searching the Cruise Critic port information I found some information on this webpage which says it's the new Marina Bay Cruise Centre. http://www.cruisecritic.com/ports/newport.cfm?ID=146 Where You're Docked Since 2012, Singapore has had two separate cruise terminals. Previously, most ships docked at the Singapore Cruise Centre, which is part of the large Harbourfront Centre and VivoCity, about a 10- to 15-minute taxi drive from downtown. With the arrival of the larger mega-ships to Asia, Singapore has also constructed a new facility, Marina Bay Cruise Centre, which is located at the southernmost tip of the country. Star Cruises uses Singapore Cruise Centre, as does Holland America and some other lines operating smaller ships. Cruise lines with mega-ships, such as Celebrity, Cunard, Princess and Royal Caribbean, have moved their port calls and occasional turnarounds to the new Marina Bay facility.

caribill Posted March 22, 2017 #3 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Searching the Cruise Critic port information I found some information on this webpage which says it's the new Marina Bay Cruise Centre. Agree. But the close by hotel is the Marina Bay Sands, one of the most expensive hotels in the city. Deluxe Room from $280.89/day 39 square meters Premier Room from $302.01/day 47 square meters The Club Room from $393.53/day 62 square meters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newport dave Posted March 22, 2017 #5 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Taxis are relatively cheap in Singapore, so you don't need be really close to where the ship docks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gwendy Posted March 23, 2017 #6 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Last year our hotel was near Lavender station, quite a distance, cab fare was 30 Singapore dollars. Very cheap for two people. Check on google there is a site that will estimate taxi fares for many cities, Singapore is one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
