The Staytion Lifestyle Centre situated at Dhoby Ghaut MRT station was launched in July 2024, offering a convenient way for commuters to enjoy pockets of respite and make essential pit-stops during their journey.
It sounded very much like airport lounge to me and was wondering how one at the train station will look like. It is also a much-needed option since I am a writer who works on the go. I need good spaces to let my creative juices flow and put pen to paper.
SAFRA members enjoy complimentary access:
- Lounge use at Dhoby Ghaut for an hour. First 1,000 only.
- 1-day pass for Staytion Spaces located at other MRT stations: Paya Lebar, Marsiling – and Dhoby Ghaut (again) too! First 500 only.
Simply download the SAFRA mobile app, go to ‘eVouchers’ and tap on wallet to access your vouchers. Find out more at safra.sg/promotions/Staytion-spaces
A one-stop lifestyle hub for the busy commuter
I decided to give it a try. I stepped out of the Dhoby Ghaut MRT station turnstiles, and after a short walk within the station, I found myself greeted by an area tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the Dhoby Ghaut MRT. There is an array of essential services such as a lounge as well as a plethora of food and beverage options.
I settled down to do some work at the Staytion Lounge, a comfortable versatile space that is only made better with free-flow refreshments. It was easy to find a charging port, and I quickly connected to the complimentary Wi-Fi. The lounge’s open concept has a calming ambience that is great for people watching or focused on productivity.
It was such an enjoyable experience getting my work done here that I decided on the spot to sign up for the Staytion Spaces Membership (applicable to Lite and Lite+ only), , enjoying 50% off as a SAFRA member. Guess you’ll be seeing me here a lot more often in future!
It was time for lunch, and I checked out the various F&B options.
Saladstop
A contemporary salad pitstop for the health-conscious diner. I picked the Game Changer bowl, which is packed with my choice of protein alongside a generous portion of fresh greens including edamame, cherry tomatoes and mixed seeds. It was a filling and satisfying lunch!
I enjoyed 10% off the total bill as a SAFRA member.
Takagi Ramen
I was happy to see a Takagi Ramen outlet here as I’m a fan of their affordable and generously-portioned bowls of ramen. I made a mental note to come back for its Chilli Crab Ramen soon (which I did a week after)!
SAFRA members enjoy 10% off regular-priced items.
Health and beauty services
Personal health is one of the things that everyone should always stay on top of no matter the cost. Staytion Lifestyle Centre houses various options where you can conveniently get your dose of health screenings and beauty treatments. I decided to treat myself a little better, and booked a Health Screening Package for my next visit to Staytion.
Book an Exclusive Health Screening Package by Alliance Medical Centre at a price of $400 or get yourself a Collagen Stimulating Laser Session at Evoque Medical Aesthetics for only $50 (inclusive of doctor’s consultation and 3D Facial Analysis)
With Staytion Lifestyle Centre’s location in Dhoby Ghaut MRT Station, not only does it make a convenient pitstop in the middle of a workday, it’s also a great recreational spot to visit after work or even on weekends!
