The area
Address
Neighbourhood: Marina Bay
More of a mini city than a neighbourhood in the traditional sense, the iconic Marina Bay aims to dazzle and entertain visitors of all kinds. This is the Singapore found in glossy brochures, featuring a world-class hotel, casino, shops, restaurants, bars, and other attractions all geared towards pure entertainment. The SkyPark at Marina Bay Sands provides a stunning view of the city, a must-see photo opportunity for visitors and locals alike. The ArtScience Museum always has a top-quality exhibition, and Gardens by the Bay is a fascinating manifestation of the government’s vision of Singapore as a “city in a garden”. Enticing Marina Bay is well worth a visit.

- LMCM111Perth, Australia686 contributionsStunning!Amazing views. We booked tickets for 6.15 and stayed till the sun went down. Not overly crowded, after 5pm you have to buy time tickets and we bought ours online in advance - thankfully because we noticed when we got there there was a sign saying all tickets for rest of day sold out.Visited September 2023Travelled as a coupleWritten 14 September 2023

- Genevieve FrydmanBrussels, Belgium10 contributionsSunset in the Sky - a must visit and indulgence while in SingaporeSome colleagues and I booked tickets to the 6pm Sunset in the Sky experience offered at the Marina Bay Hotel. What an incredible evening ! Faith and her team (Emily, Syarah, Christy and and Naida) ensured we felt like true superstars. From the check in process downstairs to the private escort service up to the rooftop and everything afterwards was truly nothing shy of magical. The team took the time to get to know me and my colleagues, asking where we were from, recommending places for us to visit and providing us with some insights into the history of the city. A glass of champagne and a series of homemade truffle chocolates are included in the ticket price as well as a photoshoot to secure the memories of the day ! We also had dinner on the rooftop - some of the best karaage chicken I’ve ever had anywhere in the world and truly great value for money. If you’re in Singapore for even 24 hours, this has to be on your list ! Make sure you specifically ask for this team and let them know we sent you. You won’t regret it !Written 1 October 2023
- Pebbles111322 contributionsSuperb viewsAs someone who's afraid of heights I wasn't going to attempt this viewing platform but my friends convinced me to go up and I'm really glad I did ! You buy the tickets at the self service machines in the lobby ( make sure you keep the receipt too) and the process takes you up the lift, stopping beforehand for photos if required ( payable not free). I felt really safe at the top and the views were fabulous. Loads of photo opportunities. Would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Singapore.Visited September 2023Travelled with friendsWritten 9 October 2023
- CrissiAustralia6 contributionsAmazing experience at the SkyPark Observation DeckWe celebrated two birthdays during the Sunset in the Sky at a private area on the Observation Deck with our group of friends. With chocolates and champagne. And the bar open for orders. It was fantastic! The view was amazing! We had a wonderful evening with a true VIP service from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. Faith, Emily, Syarah and Christy made sure we were well looked after, they provided us with the best service. They even decorated our tables with balloons, handed out flowers and sang a very special happy birthday. The photos they took were perfect and we were given a personalised photobook. If you’re coming to Singapore this is a must.Visited October 2023Travelled with friendsWritten 10 October 2023

- Keith KAlton, United Kingdom239 contributionsStunning viewsThe views from the Sands Skypark Observation Deck are truly amazing, all of Singapore, the Gardens by the Bay and the Singapore Strait are laid out beneath you. Purchasing your ticket in advance is a must as they are timed to avoid overcrowding on both the Observation Deck and express lifts. Access is by Lift in Marina Bay Sands Hotel tower 3 and is well signposted within the complex.Visited September 2023Travelled soloWritten 14 October 2023
- TravelTrips12Sydney, Australia368 contributionsGreat! But can improveThe price for this attraction has gone up significantly since my last visit before COVID. On offer is the same views. However, it can get quite crowded up there, and more importantly, it's very hot with very little shade. Most of the guests sat on the floor in refuge from the sun with the very limited shade offered by the building. Would be better if there were more fans or shade for guests. We didn't stay as long because it was simply too hot.Visited September 2023Travelled with friendsWritten 15 October 2023
- Steven RKingaroy, Australia1,956 contributionsFantastic ViewsThe best views in Singapore. Advised to book prior to arrival for convenience and a better price.

Coming from Melbourne Australia where we have the Eureka Sky Deck the Marina Bay Sands Observation Deck was a let down. Yes you see the beautiful city but in comparison it wasn’t really worth the time and money spent. It’s quite pricey to get up there and once you are up it was super crowded. I would however recommend this to people who are visiting from a country where there is no viewing deck.

Recently visited the Skypark as one of the things you have to do while in Singapore. We visited in the early evening, just before it got dark. Admission on the ground level of MBS was very easy, and the lift to the top only took a couple of minutes. When we reached the top, that's where it all started to unravel. The skypark was rammed, with only a limited amount of tables and chairs, which meant us loitering aroung already seated people ready to pounce if anyone left. We eventually claimed a spot, but the view was nothing more than average, which was really the case wherever you sat.
The cost of admission is 26$, for which you also get a voucher for 26$ to spend at the bar. Bargain we thought until you see the bar menu. Prices, even for a beer, use up most of the 26$, but it still seems a better deal then paying 23$ for the observation deck alone. The disappointment was really the view. You are confined to a small area which doesn't give a good view of either the marina nor Gardens by the Bay.
After paying an exoberant 25$ for a second beer, we left very disappointed.

The view from the observation deck is magnificent, however the Sands hotel takes full advantage of thier location.
1. Entry fee is very expensive $$25 - $$30 per person, for riding up an overcrowded elevator to the 57th floor of the building.
2. The high fee does not allow the visitors access to the entire roof, with it's tropical gardend, restaurants, and bars. Only to a small, overcrowded, area of that roof area.
3. Too many people are crowding the side of the building, hardly allowing for one to get close to the edge to take photoes.
Major disapointment. I'd recomend to stay away from this attraction despite the beautiful views it offers.

In simple terms there is nothing there except a view.
There is no real refreshment stalls and one tacky souvenir shop.
There is NO access to the swimming pool, which is actually what the MBS is famous for, it is only for hotel guests, even hotel guests visitors can not access it.
Save your money and go on the Singapore Flyer (wheel) which is nearby. You will get a much better view of the city, albeit another $10 or $15 more.
So do not waste your money at the Skypark.
Incidentally, we live in Singapore and have stayed at the hotel, the pool is not all it is cracked up to be anyway, my wife has also visited the skypark and said it was a waste of money.
We take all visitors on the Flyer, this is the best way to get a view of Singapore and pick out places of interest to visit later.
Thank you.

There is a choice to make. For access to the observation deck you pay the $26 each or wave your SingaporeAir boarding passes and get 15% off each ticket. This entitles you to access to a large open deck on the 56th floor. Alternatively you can buy a pass at the ground floor for the ce la vi restaurant which entitles you to access the 57th floor restaurant and a wider, possibly more comfortable experience. This does not open till midday so we opted to go just for the observation deck. Despite some criticisms on this forum we found the view excellent, there were no queues when we arrived at 11 am and we had as much of a panorama as we wished for with views over the city, harbour, bay gardens and out to sea. Sure there were no seats or shade but there are toilets and access to drinks available to buy. You can see the infinity pool in the distance but not close up. We may have been lucky with the weather and the sparse numbers of visitors but we felt it was a well worthwhile experience.

Although a little on the expensive side this place really is worth visiting. The views from it are amazing! If you ASK there is another floor you can access (via the lift) When you get to the top you exit the lift and turn left. When you get outside everyone turns right. If you look LEFT there is a narrow passageway, that gives access to another area where there is a bar and seating. You also get a view of the infinity pool. Don’t get too excited, you can only use the pool if you are staying in the hotel. (it’s not obvious so not many find it. Turn RIGHT and you get to another bar area with seating and awesome views. Just sit down BEFORE you look at the bars price list. But because of where you are you simply must have a Singapore Sling to sip whilst soaking up the view. Once you have visited the bar you cannot reypturn to the observation deck, it’s the ground floor only. The entrance fee includes five photographs and a video (download the next day) Clever system, they take your picture as you go in and you are then superimposed on five different photographs of the building.

A very cheap way (vs paying to stay at Marina Bay Sands Hotel) of experiencing incredible views over Singapore and appreciating what an architectural achievement this building is.
Best time to arrive is 30minutes before sunset as light changes so you can enjoy both light/dark views but be prepared for a queue downstairs at that time even if you have prebooked tickets. We went on a Saturday and wait was just 15minutes.
Highly recommended.

The Skypark is now one of the most recognisable features of any city worldwide. The views over the city are spectacular and in particular you get a sense of the scale of the Gardens on the Bay and the incredibly busy shipping lanes off the coast of Singapore. The restaurant/bar at the Skypark (Lavo) has excellent views and whilst a little expensive is part of the experience of visiting Skypark

The view of Singapore on top was spectacular. We went up late afternoon after a hard rain and waited until dark. You can see the difference in the surroundings during daylight and night time. The observation deck was full of tourists (some are quite drunk & loud) but okey. Cost to go up is $S32 and that includes professional photo that you can download for free. Line was a little long but fast moving. The port of Singapore looks amazing on top. The show at the Gardens by the Bay was a delight. The only negative thing I can say was, the Skypark where the beautiful garden and pool are only accessible to hotel guests.

It has to be done, visit this iconic building, travel to the top and see Singapore from above.
Like everything in the city, it's expensive, the ticket is just to the viewing platform and you can't sit down. If you get past those two facts you don't over expect and you won't be disappointed.
It seems quite a slick operation and we didn't really queue to get up or down and were pleased that we did it.

Hi, thinking of booking tickets online a couple of weeks in advance as we will be there in sept at time of car race so expect it to be busy. But am worried that you have to pick a nominated time ie 1pm, 3pm - what happens if you turn up early or later, do they still regard these as booked tickets and allow you to skip the booking queue? Hard to stick to a schedule when sightseeing. I know it is timed bookings after 5 but am interested in earlier.
Written 22 August 2023
in my case I had reserved (the day before) the tickets for a time slot BEFORE 5pm but eventually the etickets reported 11am-5pm as validity. I wanted to go there at 15 but apparently any time would have been fine between 11am and 5pm. But yes, maybe if there are car races they might be stricter with the time slots. And about being late or early, it will also depend HOW late/early you're going to be; surely 10 minutes won't be a problem. Just make sure you are around the Skypark and not on the other side of the Marina.

I think you are asking does it need booked in advance, like a lot of things in Singapore you do need to buy the tickets electronically to get a bar code. We did book the tickets onthe day though, seem to remember you booked for a time range which might have been more to do with COVID regulations, they do shut for lightning as well for safety reasons

Are the Gardens by the Bay by/ under/on the hotel .?

I booked via TripAdvisor and have received my confirmation. The attachment has a link called GET TICKET, when this opens it says in red THIS IS NOT YOUR ENTRY TICKET. How do I obtain this?
In addition I bought as a gift for my parents on my personal credit card, the ID which they present will differ from my card details, is this likely to be an issue?
