Spacious clean room with a small kitchenette and added bonus of a washer dryer. For an extended stay it had all we needed. It is unconventionally located in a refurbished secondary school but this added to its charm. There are restaurants, shops and a supermarket just downstairs but room is quiet. Staff are friendly and helpful.

My partner and I stayed two weeks in a second floor studio room which had washing and cooking facilities. The washing was invaluable, as it is so hot in Singapore, clothes only get a single use. The cooking facilities were basic, but it's cheaper to eat out at a hawker than buying groceries at the nearby cold storage. We did cook a couple of times, but nothing elaborate. The bed was a little hard for my liking, but the pillows were very comfy. Be aware that the soundproofing of the rooms is not great. We were lucky the first week, all was quiet, but the second week our neighbours turned their TV up very loud. We could also hear the music from something nearby in the mornings on the weekend. We suspected this was a local exercise class. The bathroom was fine and the rainfall shower had good pressure. The downside was that it would spray everywhere, soaking the floor. The room should really come with a squeegee mop or similar to deal with wet floors in the 3-4 days between room service. As everything got wet so often, there was a dehumidifier supplied in the room which we had to keep running 24/7. This increased the noise levels throughout the room, so if you are a light sleeper, it could be difficult. The location is about 15 minutes walk from an MRT station with some slight hills. There is a shuttle bus that runs between Orchard and New Bahru, but it only runs from midday until 8pm. Overall Alma House is a decent place to stay if you are okay with the walking and the noise.

Overall, the accommodation was excellent - clean and included laundry and a kitchenette. Service was terrific with the front desk being on WhatsApp 24/7 and super responsive to my needs. The only thing I would have an issue with is that the design of the showers is one of those "modern" and impractical takes whereby every drop of shower water ends up all over the bathroom floor which makes brushing teeth or going to the toilet a wet and uncomfortable experience. Also, the nearest bus stop or metro is about a 15-20 minute walk away and it would have been nice to have picked a location that was closer to those modes of transit but that one is on me.

Spacious apartment

The apartment was modern and spacious. We had two double bedrooms, and also the option of a sofa bed. It was great having a washing machine in the room. Each room has a kettle, microwave and two ring hob ( but no oven or toaster). It had all the basic equipment you might need except dishcloth and tea towels. Staff were really helpful with any issues and easily/ quickly contactable through WhatsApp. The area is pretty close to a lot of things- just a couple of stops on the mrt or bus to get anywhere. Underneath the flat is a supermarket with most things you could need as well as a number of restaurants etc. we were there for a fortnight and found plenty to do in Singapore.

Very pleasant

While Alma house is only located a 12 minute walk from the MRT FORT canning station the humidity has an impact. There are pleny of eating places around including a grocery store on the groung floor open from 8:30 to 22:00 The MRT is a fantastic way to get around Singapore. Accommodation is good, airconditioning is great and the staff are very helpful. Ironing boards an irons are always available and delivered to your room on request. In the room you will find a small fridge, washing machine (suggest you bring your own WM pods) and a microwave in addition to the standard kettle. No tea or coffe is provided but its eash to purchase supplies from yhe grocery store. The price for the room is reasonable, on Singapore prices. Id be gappy to stay there again. Thete is no gym or pool on site.

Location is great. Walkable to the MRT and buses. We even walked to Orchard Rd from here. Having a washing machine was great. Appreciated the divide between our bed and the living space/fold out couch. Dining options immediately downstairs was good, although a little on the expensive side. Having access to the small grocery store made breakfast an easy option. I would stay here again.

Staying here for a week was a great decision. Not only is the property comfortable and spacious, it’s walking distant to some amazing areas around Singapore. The only downside was the lack of sound proofing. You can hear every conversation and footstep in the hallway and all the movements in the room next door. That being said, I still really enjoyed my time here. The access to all of the cafes, restaurants and boutique stores on the property is a major plus. Coffee from PPP every day was a highlight and there’s a supermarket just downstairs which is super handy

Alma House is such a unique place to stay — a beautifully converted former school, complete with a doorbell that still sounds like the old school bells! The location is fantastic, with great cafes, restaurants and shops, plus a Cold Storage super market right downstairs for convenience. The staff were friendly and responsive via WhatsApp, which made everything easy. The in-room laundry in the Studio was a lifesaver on hot days, and while rooms are only cleaned on Tuesdays and Fridays, we were able to request fresh towels without any hassle. River Valley has a lovely local feel — tucked away just enough for peace and quiet, but still within a 15-minute walk to Orchard Road. Just a heads-up: it’s not super close to an MRT station, so if public transport is your main mode of travel, you’ll need to factor that in.
