Marina Bay Sands (MBS) is arguably the most famous landmark in Singapore. (Don't tell the Merlion.)
Featuring three towers with a connecting, boat-shaped rooftop that houses one of Singapore's hottest bars (Ku Dé Ta) and one of the world's most photographed pools (57 stories high), MBS is not your average luxury hotel.
Nor is it a place for those who like their hotels small and quaint. The integrated resort has 2,561 rooms, broken down into nine different sizes and styles.
On the ground floor down there's a shopping center, Singapore’s biggest theater and moderate and expensive restaurants, including several celeb-helmed eateries.
For local food, there's a food court in the lower basement, which also has gondolas, a mini-ice rink and that Sands must-have, a casino.
