Singapore or Hong Kong with 3 under 5?

Hi,

I'm wanting to plan a family holiday towards the end of this year with all 3 kids and i'm weighing up between Singapore and Hong Kong which one would be better suited for young children. Hong Kong does seem to grab me with Disneyland as i'd know the kids would love it but Singapore seems to have a few more things to do like Sentosa and the zoo. I'd also be looking at having a 2bedroom or interconnecting rooms for the stay but im not sure which hotels to start researching?
Has anyone been to either locations and can recommend which one would be better suited plus recommend somewhere to stay?
Thank you!!

husband has now thrown Fiji into the mix he said its probably better to keep the flight shorter and he gets a discount with some hotels on the island. Anyone stayed at The Sheraton Fiji, Sofitel or the Westin Denaru?

I've been to Singapore and loved it. It was clean and safe feeling to me.

My parents did Hong Kong and didn't like it. My mum said it was really dirty and she didn't feel comfortable. I've had other friends though who love it. Mainly for the shopping though.

For Singapore, any where along orchard rd is great, and I'm pretty sure you can stay on sentosa if you want too.

What type of style holiday are you after? Ie. shopping, relax, adventure?

There might be some other places I can think of :)

I think it'll be a holiday more for the kids and for us to be as a family.. I somehow dont think it'll be very relaxing as the kids are very energetic! Kids club also would be nice if it went from around the age of 3 Im not sure if any places accommodate that or if they go from 4 or 5yrs old?

We have been to Singapore several times and loved it. Never with chn though. The zoo is fantastic. It's clean and easy to navigate.

Another option might be Malaysia then?

You can do an elephant sanctuary day where you get to look after the elephants and wash them and groom them etc.
There is also the theme parks in KL too.

Langkawi I plan on going back to once dd is older because the resort we stayed at had an amazing lagoon pool with water slide and a kids club. Plus it was super relaxing for adults.

We did Hong Kong just before Christmas 2011 and Singapore in September 2010. Both were great, but very different holidays.

Singapore we stayed on Sentosa Island. I can't remember the name of the hotel - started with "F" I think - but it had family rooms with bed areas for the kids which were great - it was brand new when we went and part of the casino complex area. There are a couple of stand alone hotels on Sentosa that might be worth investigating though. Huge plus for Singapore is that it is exceptionally clean, easy as to get around on public transport and as you say, tons to do with the kids. We combined a stay on Sentosa with a week at Club Med on Bintan Island, which is part of Indonesia but you get to it by fast ferry from Singapore. Totally geared towards families so the kids had a ball, ergo we did too. Down side is that Singapore is exxy - food, stuff to do etc

Hong Kong was also fantastic and a heap to do with the kids - Disneyland, Oceanpark, teddy bear factory, cable car and other stuff I just can't remember at the moment. Again, very easy to get around on public transport, cheaper for food and activities than Singapore and a kazillion choices for hotels. Down side is that it is seriously filthy and busy, but I quite liked the feel of it and always felt safe.
