Ritz-Carlton Millenia Singapore extends Healthcare Hero rate for 2022: Weekend stays below S$350 nett

To recognise the contributions of healthcare workers during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Ritz-Carlton Millenia Singapore has been offering a special Healthcare Hero rate since 2020. This is available to anyone with a medical or healthcare ID, issued in Singapore or overseas. 

The Healthcare Hero rate has once again been extended for 2022, with the latest iteration valid for stays through 29 December 2022. Unfortunately, the starting price has also increased by S$20++ from S$275++ to S$295++, but it’s still a significant discount compared to the regular rates we see at this property. 

Ritz-Carlton Millenia Singapore Healthcare Hero rate

From now till 29 December 2022, healthcare workers can book and stay at the Ritz-Carlton Millenia Singapore at the following discounted rates:

The Healthcare Hero rate:

• is applicable for both weekend and weekday stays, although certain dates (e.g. Chinese New Year, Valentine’s Day) are blocked out
• covers just the room (breakfast costs S$48++ per adult and S$24++ per child aged 12 and below)
• is fully refundable up to two days before arrival

Compared to 2021, rates have increased by S$20++ for non-club rooms and S$50++ for club rooms. However, it’s still a decent deal, given that the cheapest refundable rate I can find for a Deluxe Marina room starts from S$470++ (S$553 nett).

As a reminder, the Ritz-Carlton Millenia Singapore does not participate in Marriott Bonvoy, so there’s no question of earning Bonvoy points or enjoying elite benefits. 

In case you were wondering, all the non-suite rooms at the Ritz-Carlton Millenia are the same size at 51 sqm; they’re just on different floors, with different views and entitlements. 

If you want the full fat experience, go for a Club Room. Ritz-Carlton guards access to its club lounges zealously; even Marriott’s top-tier Ambassador members don’t get free access. 

There’s a reason why: the club lounge at the Ritz is an experience to remember. Think all-day champagne, five culinary presentations daily (breakfast, mid-day snacks, afternoon tea, evening canapes and desserts), and a complimentary limo drop-off to anywhere within the vicinity. Of course there’s also the fawning service you’d expect at the Ritz, jacked up to the next level. 

For the record, the Healthcare Hero rate isn’t the cheapest I’ve ever seen for a Club Room at the Ritz-Carlton Singapore. Just a couple of days ago, Ritz ran a flash sale with Club Rooms pricing at S$645 nett. Trip.com offered a further S$50 coupon which brought the rate down to S$595 nett- an excellent price, if you’re OK with a non-refundable rate.

So it’s worth keeping your eyes open for similar sales as well, should this be something on your bucket list.

Conclusion

Ritz-Carlton Millenia Singapore has extended its Healthcare Hero offer for 2022, with rooms starting from S$295++ (S$347 nett). This is slightly more expensive than the rate offered in 2021, but still a good-sized discount compared to what the public pays. 

If you’re looking for a Club Room in particular, it may be possible to snag a cheaper (albeit non-refundable) rate during one of Ritz’s flash sales.
