All these are good answers; you\u2019ll experience them at Citadines Connect Rochester Singapore. The Rest &amp; Recharge package is a two-night stay where you\u2019ll recharge your batteries through interesting experiences. I\u2019m sorely in need of rest, so I checked in over the weekend to check out the hotel and the package.<\/p>\n<h3>A hotel inspired by nature<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_273963\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-273963\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-273963 size-medium lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/citadines-connect-rochester-singapore-lobby-sufyan-900x643.jpg\" alt=\"Reception area | Citadines Connect Rochester Singapore\" width=\"900\" height=\"643\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/citadines-connect-rochester-singapore-lobby-sufyan-900x643.jpg 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/citadines-connect-rochester-singapore-lobby-sufyan-768x549.jpg 768w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/citadines-connect-rochester-singapore-lobby-sufyan.jpg 1400w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/643;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-273963\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photography: Sufyan Saad<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Citadines Connect Rochester Singapore is a 10-minute stroll from Buona Vista MRT station. The hotel isn\u2019t immediately noticeable as it\u2019s located within Rochester Common, an integrated development. However, it\u2019s easily accessible via the lift.<\/p>\n<p>The first thing I noticed was the expansive reception area. There\u2019s a lot of natural light coming through thanks to the floor-to-ceiling windows, which I appreciated. I spotted a giant teddy bear sitting on the sofa; I reckon it was placed there to welcome visitors, particularly children. There\u2019s a refreshment area where you can grab snacks, <a href=\"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/singapore\/order-kopi-singapore\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">coffee<\/a> (though unavailable when I was there), and refreshing cold lemon water. After a quick check-in, I headed off to my room.<\/p>\n<p>I wasn\u2019t kidding when I said the hotel\u2019s inspired by nature. Behind the check-in area, there\u2019s an entire wall covered with greenery. Large leaf murals greet you when you emerge from the lift to go to your room. Even the carpets feature leaf motifs!<\/p>\n<h3>A standard room with sustainability in mind<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_273964\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-273964\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-273964 size-medium lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/citadines-connect-rochester-singapore-room-view-sufyan-900x643.jpg\" alt=\"The view | Citadines Connect Rochester Singapore\" width=\"900\" height=\"643\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/citadines-connect-rochester-singapore-room-view-sufyan-900x643.jpg 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/citadines-connect-rochester-singapore-room-view-sufyan-768x549.jpg 768w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/citadines-connect-rochester-singapore-room-view-sufyan.jpg 1400w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/643;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-273964\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A room with a view. Photography: Sufyan Saad<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>For my stay, I checked into the Deluxe Room. I wasn\u2019t immediately amazed by the room until I saw the view, which overlooks (mostly) lush greenery and clear skies. There\u2019s an open wardrobe, which makes it easy to stash away your luggage and hang up your clothes. The room has a smart TV, allowing you to mirror cast from your phone or laptop.<\/p>\n<p>In a bid for <a href=\"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/singapore\/sustainable-living-singapore\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sustainability<\/a>, the hotel implemented several measures. You won\u2019t find any bottled water in the room \u2013 only a kettle and a glass jug, which you can fill up at water refilling stations along the room corridor. There\u2019s only a standing shower in the bathroom to minimise water wastage. I like that the toiletries are eco-friendly and smell good. It\u2019s also a smart room: if it detects zero presence in the room after 20 minutes, everything is automatically switched off.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_273965\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-273965\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-273965 size-medium lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/citadines-connect-rochester-singapore-welcome-pack-sufyan-900x643.jpg\" alt=\"Unknotify Welcome Pack | Citadines Connect Rochester Singapore\" width=\"900\" height=\"643\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/citadines-connect-rochester-singapore-welcome-pack-sufyan-900x643.jpg 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/citadines-connect-rochester-singapore-welcome-pack-sufyan-768x549.jpg 768w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/citadines-connect-rochester-singapore-welcome-pack-sufyan.jpg 1400w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/643;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-273965\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The welcome pack \u2013 a welcome relief!

Photography: Sufyan Saad<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The package also includes a couple of activities, the first being a flower printing workshop guided by Youmin Yap, founder of Xiu Nature Connections. You\u2019re given a small piece of paper, some fresh blooms, a wooden hammer, and a couple of paper towels. Place the <a href=\"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/singapore\/best-florists-singapore-flower-delivery-workshops\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">flowers<\/a> on the paper, cover them with a paper towel, and knock knock! There\u2019s no hard and fast rule to this activity.<\/p>\n<p>I didn\u2019t devise any game plan for this; instead, I just went with the flow. I was more taken in by the hammering. Initially, it felt like I was letting go of my stress and frustrations. The constant knocking was therapeutic, in a way. I became more enthusiastic about producing a lovely flower print piece as I progressed. The end result turned out pretty well. Colour me impressed! \u201cWow! It looks like Van Gogh!\u201d someone commented. *pats myself on the back*<\/p>\n<h3>Rest #2: Reconnecting with nature<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_273969\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-273969\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-273969 size-medium lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/citadines-connect-rochester-singapore-forest-bathing-one-north-park-chen-mao-mao-900x643.png\" alt=\"Forest bathing at One-North Park: Fusionopolis North\" width=\"900\" height=\"643\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/citadines-connect-rochester-singapore-forest-bathing-one-north-park-chen-mao-mao-900x643.png 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/citadines-connect-rochester-singapore-forest-bathing-one-north-park-chen-mao-mao-768x549.png 768w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/citadines-connect-rochester-singapore-forest-bathing-one-north-park-chen-mao-mao.png 1400w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/643;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-273969\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Forest bathing at One-North Park: Fusionopolis North. Photography: Chen Mao Mao<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Have you heard of <a href=\"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/singapore\/forest-bathing-experience-singapore\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">forest bathing<\/a>? It\u2019s a wellness practice that dates back to the 1980s in Japan (trust them to come up with this sort of thing, eh). That\u2019s the second activity under the Rest &amp; Recharge package, also guided by Youmin. When I heard that I\u2019d be taking part in this experience, I quickly read my colleague\u2019s experience to have an idea of what I was getting myself into.<\/p>\n<p>On a typical Sunday, I\u2019d be in bed till around noon, catching up on sleep. But on this particular weekend, I was already up and about by 8am, all because of the forest bathing. \u201cThis better be worth waking up early,\u201d I thought.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_273966\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-273966\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-273966 size-medium lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/citadines-connect-rochester-singapore-forest-bathing-activities-chen-mao-mao-sufyan-900x643.png\" alt=\"Forest bathing at One-North Park: Fusionopolis North\" width=\"900\" height=\"643\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/citadines-connect-rochester-singapore-forest-bathing-activities-chen-mao-mao-sufyan-900x643.png 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/citadines-connect-rochester-singapore-forest-bathing-activities-chen-mao-mao-sufyan-768x549.png 768w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/citadines-connect-rochester-singapore-forest-bathing-activities-chen-mao-mao-sufyan.png 1400w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/643;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-273966\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A sharing session occurred after each activity (left), and a tea ceremony took place after the whole experience (right). Photography: Chen Mao Mao (left) and Sufyan Saad (right)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The activity was conducted at One-North Park: Fusionopolis North (yes, it\u2019s a mouthful), a 15-minute walk from the hotel. Youmin shared her natural insect repellent, which I liberally sprayed all over. That\u2019s the only thing I smelled throughout the excursion. Youmin led us to a spot when we arrived, and the two-hour forest bathing activity swiftly commenced. Four exercises took place, which required us to slow down and experience nature through our senses.<\/p>\n<p>Full disclosure: I\u2019m not a nature kind of person. I can appreciate it, but I\u2019m not for immersing myself in it. That said, I genuinely enjoyed my forest bathing experience. I felt calm, grounded, and centred afterwards. And shockingly, not wholly annoyed at the bugs. Without the package and Youmin\u2019s guidance, I wouldn\u2019t have bothered participating in a forest bath. Would I do it again? Depending on the location, maybe.<\/p>\n<h3>The other type of rest you\u2019ll get<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_273967\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-273967\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-273967 size-medium lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/citadines-connect-rochester-singapore-swimming-pool-sufyan-900x643.jpg\" alt=\"Swimming pool | Citadines Connect Rochester Singapore\" width=\"900\" height=\"643\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/citadines-connect-rochester-singapore-swimming-pool-sufyan-900x643.jpg 900w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/citadines-connect-rochester-singapore-swimming-pool-sufyan-768x549.jpg 768w, https:\/\/static.thehoneycombers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/05\/citadines-connect-rochester-singapore-swimming-pool-sufyan.jpg 1400w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/643;\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-273967\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Let&#8217;s go swimming, swimming, swimming\u2026 Photography: Sufyan Saad<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Besides creative and spiritual rest, there\u2019s another type of rest you\u2019ll experience here \u2013 I\u2019m talking about physical rest, of course! The bed was comfortable, and I had a good sleep. I was told I didn\u2019t snore, which I consider a good thing.<\/p>\n<p>The other physical rest that I got was at the <a href=\"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/singapore\/best-swimming-pools-singapore-hotels\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">pool<\/a>. Did you know that exercise counts as rest too? I managed to squeeze in a good few laps after forest bathing. There\u2019s nothing much to rave about the pool, but it\u2019s definitely needed \u2013 especially after a long day. If you prefer to go for a workout, there\u2019s a 24-hour <a href=\"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/singapore\/best-gyms-in-singapore-workouts-fitness-training\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">gym<\/a> nearby. I had a quick peep, and everything looked so shiny.<\/p>\n<h3>Rest you didn\u2019t ask for, but it\u2019s what you need<\/h3>\n<p>I checked out of Citadines Connect Rochester Singapore feeling fully relaxed and ready to take on the world again, all thanks to the Rest &amp; Recharge experience. Would I consider another stay at the hotel? Truthfully, there are a couple of caveats you should know. The walk from the train station is mostly unsheltered, and given our <a href=\"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/singapore\/stay-cool-hot-weather-singapore\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">weather<\/a>, that\u2019s not cool. Also, the hotel has no restaurants, so you\u2019ll have to venture out (<a href=\"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/singapore\/rochester-park-guide-restaurants\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rochester Park<\/a>\u2019s the nearest) to grab a bite.<\/p>\n<p>That said, I\u2019d still consider going back for another stay. It\u2019s a good break from the city, and you\u2019ll feel rejuvenated after your visit. So yes, rest is best.<\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverasr.com\/en\/offers\/rest-recharge-at-citadines-connect-rochester-singapore\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Rest &amp; Recharge at Citadines Connect Rochester Singapore<\/a>, offer ends 30 June 2023, $530 nett for a two-night stay (Fri-Sun), 1 Rochester Park, Singapore 139212<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is \u2018rest\u2019 to you?
