hi, it is actually pretty inconveniently situated. i have walked before... from orchard mrt to york hotel. it was very far. tat time i was in slippers, and i'm already tired. imagine those guest with heels, and they had to wear heels and walk up slope. yes, it is sloppy.. at 1st i'm thinking of catering a bus to fetch the guest to n fro there, but the road was simply too narrow for a bus to passby (paragon there). therefore we drop york hotel. york hotel actually had better perks then other hotel. it was my 1st choice, but i drop it becoz of location.
