It’s no secret that Singaporeans love staycations. Whether it’s to escape our neighbourhoods for a whimsical getaway or treat ourselves to some “me-time”, staycations are how we wanderlusting folk feel alive. But aside from nua-ing in bed, staycays can be an enriching time to try new things like creating your own perfume and dabbling in mixology.
Enter M Social Hotel’s Staycation Experiences. The hotel has prepared three experiences for guests to partake in, so you don’t feel like all you did was nothing during your stay. Keep reading to find out what you can get up to over at M Social Hotel:
The SWIRL360 video booth in action
You can channel your inner Keanu-Reeves-dodging-bullets and get it all on video in a bullet-time photo booth at M Social Singapore. This experience was created in collaboration with Dollop Photobooths so you and your plus-one can make a special memory that your smartphone won’t be able to do.
Each booking of the Dollop Automat staycation package includes a private 15-minute session with the self-photography studio and you’ll get to keep four 4R prints of your choice.
Those who want to take home all the photos – including outtakes – taken in monochrome and full colour can get all the shots for $30. The current promotion includes a session on the SWIRL360 video booth (worth $20).
The Dollop Automat package (from $190++/night) includes complimentary breakfast for two and is available for booking till 31st December 2022.
No matter how many bottles of eau de parfum you have in your vanity, nothing is more personal than your own custom scent. M Social Hotel has partnered with the perfumiers at Maison 21G Singapore for a perfume workshop to guide you in the process of creating your personal fragrance.
You’ll also leave the one-hour-long class with a bottle of your perfume to bring home, or as a gift to a loved one as a romantic gesture.
This Bottled Up Happiness (from $230++/night) package includes complimentary breakfast for two.
It’s easy to make your own gin and tonic, but if you’re thirsting for a more complex cocktail, M Social Hotel is offering a cocktail masterclass in the comfort of the hotel. Their in-house mixologist will teach you all the ways of shaking and garnishing a proper drink.
You’ll also get familiar with different syrups, tinctures, and bitters that your taste buds are familiar with but never knew their names. If you want more drinks, you can add on $25++ for a second set for two.
This Mix and Stay (from $210++/night) package includes a M Social Cocktail Shaker and complimentary breakfast for two.
A staycation is a perfect excuse to get some much needed R&R, but you’ll also have plenty of time to go out of your comfort zone with M Social Hotel’s Staycation Experiences. You don’t even have to step out of the hotel to mix your own cocktail or dodge bullets like Keanu Reeves.
When you’re done with the activities, you can retire back to your rooms. Choose from up to five types of accommodation; those who want a snug room with high ceilings can opt for the Alcove Cosy Room, while others who are obsessed with cute private terraces can stay in the Loft Terrace Room. There’s also free WiFi provided throughout the hotel so you can immortalise your staycay on your Instagram Stories with no lag.
