KINN Capsule: Our home away from home in Singapore

As an SG first-timer, excitement was in the air even days before our flight. I was part of the maiden voyage of Cebu Pacific for the resumption of its Iloilo to/from Singapore flights.

Together with my fellow Iloilo Bloggers Inc travel buddies, it was time for another adventure outside the country.

Good thing immigration at ILO is just a breeze so it was a great start for our SG adventure.

After a little more than 3-hour flight (enjoyed my 1A seat), we touched down at Changi Airport, proving that the airport is among the very best in the world.

Passengers were welcome by Changi staff upon arrival.

Ready to recharge, we took a Grab ride and checked in at KINN Capsule.

At the sight of our hostel, I think I’ve fully recharged! Housed in an art deco building in the heritage area of Boat Quay, I loved KINNs simple aesthetic look inside out. Plus checking on Google maps, the location is very convenient as proven by our travels all the way.

I’m no stranger to hostels and capsule hotels but KINN leveled up this my hosteling experience. Its rooms and capsule are very clean, almost immaculate and perfect for us weary travelers.

The room was cool - both literally and figurative. You can choose between a side-entry or a front entry capsule pods.

Each pod is provided with pillows, comforter, toiletries and slip-ons (as regular footwears are not allowed inside).

Amenities inside the pods also include personal lighting, power outlets, foldable table, mirror and a roller curtain for privacy.

Personal lockers room (with ironing facilities) and dedicated toilet and bath for men and women are located outside the rooms.

I love the pantry having a 24/7 supply of hot and cold water plus unli coffee, tea and biscuits whenever we like. There’s also a microwave oven a space to store our personal foodstuff.

A complimentary light breakfast at the lobby starts the day and I love its selection of savory and sweet pastries like croissants, quiche, pain au chocolat and more - perfect and delicious way to start the day.

KINN Hospitality Concepts also do a great job with the community as its collaboration with local artisans for its merch and activities such as walking tours, physical fitness activities and more.

We also had a sneak peek at the newly launched KINN Habitat just a block away and it gave us another reason to be back in Singapore!

A safe and convenient location, an aesthetically designed hostel, comfortable capsule pods and a dynamic team makes Kinn Capsule and its kins creates a perfect accommodation choice in the Lion City.

is an ideal place to stay

The area around the town of Bingawan, the edge of the central portion of the province is where it ends and the town of Tapaz, Capiz province begins and is very much another unsung corner of Iloilo with warm, friendly, welcoming people.
