WFH is an acronym that we are all too familiar with by now – since as early as February this year, we’ve transitioned from office life to working from home. With the line between work and life blurred, many of us long for a change of pace and work environment.
Thank goodness we can opt for a different WFH – “work from hotel”, a daytime hotel “workation” that lets you make the most of the comfy, luxurious surroundings to maximise productivity. If you’re pining for a change of scenery away from your usual WFH setup, here are 10 work from hotel deals in Singapore.
