I,ve never really taken a lot of notice of the layout at SIN, but just wondering if there are some bars or somewhere to kill a few hours in the airport, after you have cleared immigration and collected your baggage. I don't want to head straight across to the budget terminal and kill the hours there until i depart as it is a fairly boring place. Any suggestions?
Also, i will be spending a couple of days in Singapore on the way home and staying at the Orchard Hotel. Is a taxi the quickest and easiest way to get from the airport to the Orchard?

The Taxi ride to hotel is easiest, maybe not the quickest and not the cheapest. However as you will have luggage and the MRT (train) station nearest to your hotel is a fair walk, for ease and door to door service take a cab, cost around $18 sing. Orchard hotel is a good location and you have across the road, Muddy Murphys, Harrys Bar, The famous Orchard Towers (4 floors of wh@res) and a must try restaurant called Esmiradas tel# 67353476 food and wine is amazing and well priced skewers and garlic bread a must!!!
Regarding bars in terminal 1 there is a Bill Bentley pub upstairs, but considering your time scale i think going to changi village for a beer and food is a great idea. When i lived in SG i stayed at Tampines so i'd frequent CV quite often, great food and friendly locals. Don't spend 2 hours in budget terminal as its boring as fcuk!!!
