Nothing gets Singaporeans going like a hotel buffet. After all, eating is our national hobby.
The only problem? The cost. Aside from atas Michelin-starred restaurants, buffets are pretty much the most lavish and expensive way to eat out. Sure, there's the occasional credit card promotion and 1-for-1 hotel buffet offer, but more often than not, you're gonna have to pay full price for a full spread.
Let's clear something up: Paying the full buffet price doesn't mean the buffet isn't worth your money. It just means that you've got to be prudent about which buffets offer the best bang for your buck. Here's our guide to the best hotel buffets in Singapore in 2024.
1. 9 best hotel international buffets (2024 prices)
Check out the list below to get up to speed with the latest buffet prices before your next big gathering with your foodie friends or family.
Generally, weekend prices are higher than weekday ones, and dinner costs more than lunch (just like wedding banquet prices!). Here are the adult prices for lunch and dinner buffets on weekdays and weekends:

While most of these restaurants define weekdays as Monday to Friday and weekends as Saturday and Sunday, there are several exceptions: Colony, Edge, The Line, Oscar's, Rise.
Kinda confusing, we know, but we've broken it down for you in this article. To get the deets or to find out the child pricing, just use the hyperlinks above to jump to their respective sections below!
Also, disclaimer: We referred to published prices to compile this list, expanding below on the caveats (e.g. valid only on certain days, timings, etc) we could find. However, we are only human.
To be extra sure, please give the hotel/restaurant a call to confirm the prices and validity before heading down-just in case we missed anything, or if any terms and conditions have been amended since the time of writing.
2. Carousel buffet at Royal Plaza on Scotts ($71++ to $98++)

Located in Orchard at the Royal Plaza on Scotts, Carousel's halal-certified international buffet dishes up seafood, Japanese salmon and tuna sashimi, oysters, mud crabs, tiger prawns, snow crab, Korean dishes, tapas, local dishes, and more.
Is your mouth watering yet? You might want to book your table at Carousel sooner rather than later — from Feb 13, 2024 (after Chinese New Year) Carousel will be increasing their prices for adult diners.
During the Chinese New Year period, Carousel will also charge different prices for their special Lunar New Year buffet. Here's how the prices are looking now and how they're going to change in the next few weeks.
Current buffet prices at Carousel:
| Weekdays | Weekend | |||
| Carousel buffet | Adult | Child | Adult | Child |
| Lunch (12pm – 2pm) | $71++ | $38++ | $78++ | $41++ |
| Dinner (6.30pm – 9.30pm) | $88++ | $48++ | $98++ | $52++ |
Buffet prices at Carousel during CNY (Feb 9 to 12, 2024):
| 9 Feb 2024 | 10-11 Feb 2024 | 12 Feb 2024 | ||||

3. Colony buffet at Ritz-Carlton Hotel ($74++ to $998++)
Ritz-Carlton Hotel's Colony restaurant is best known for their afternoon high tea sets. The international buffet dinner was commonly lauded as one of the best luxury buffets in town, and commanded long queues in the past.
On Sundays, Colony hosts their Vintage Champagne Brunch, a lavish affair with unlimited champagne that starts at $228++ and can go up to $998++ for adults. Yup, that's 1 grand per pax on a Sunday brunch!
But before you write Colony off as 100 per cent unattainable with your current pay check, check out their weekday lunch spread instead. For those of us whose pockets don't quite go as deep, their weekday lunch buffet costs a much friendlier $74++. Expect fresh seafood, sashimi, sushi, local Singaporean fare, grill and rotisserie cuts, dim sum, tandoor selections, and an assortment of desserts to end on a sweet note.
The dinner buffet menu is pretty similar, although you get a few more dishes in the spread such as freshly shucked oysters. On Fridays and Saturdays, dinners at Colony get a seafood spin with dishes like grilled Boston lobster, Spanish black mussel, and grilled octopus leg.
| Colony buffet prices | ||

4. Edge buffet at Pan Pacific Hotel ($68++ to $138++)
[embed]https://www.instagram.com/p/C2CqVs1y2kJ/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link[/embed]
Located on Level 3 of Pan Pacific Hotel, Edge's sprawling international buffet holds up to 316 guests at once. The buffet menu is pretty extensive as well, with all the usuals: seafood, sashimi, local dishes, Cantonese roast dishes, plant-based salads, hummus and kebabs, cheeses, hams, sausages, and desserts.
Plus, from what we see, Edge's buffet menu is perhaps one of the most vegetarian-friendly menus around town, with mains like roasted cauliflower, eggplant stew, carrot soup, and vegetarian curries and biryani.
If you've done a staycation at Pan Pacific Hotel over the past two years and became a member of Pan Pacific Privileges, you get to enjoy 10 per cent off (Premium members) and 15 per cent off (Prestige members) off your bill.
Edge is a great buffet option for families. Not only is the restaurant child-friendly, but it's also wheelchair accessible and offers free parking-very useful for those families dining with seniors.

Like the other buffet restaurants on this list, Edge is welcoming the Lunar New Year with special festive menus. They’ve broken down the CNY period into two periods: Pre-CNY (Jan 22 to Feb 8, 2024) and CNY (Feb 9 to 25, 2024). Here’s a summary of their prices:

5. Peppermint buffet at ParkRoyal Collection Marina Bay ($72++ to $118++)
[embed]https://www.instagram.com/p/C2AKr0sLplp/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link[/embed]
Peppermint is a swanky buffet spot with pretty Instagram-worthy capsule seats nestled in Collection Marina Bay. Like its predecessor AquaMarine, Peppermint is also halal-certified.
At Peppermint, expect an international buffet with usuals such as seafoods, sashimi, bread, roast meats and seafood, but also special chef creations like Chef Tor's Fish Cheek Curry. Don't forget to do some exploring and step out onto their terrace, which is home to their Urban Farm. There, Peppermint grows over 60 varieties of herbs, edible flowers and vegetables that they use in their food and drinks.
This Chinese New Year, Peppermint is bringing you Cantonese-style Braised Black Angus Beef Short Ribs and Taro, Steamed Herbal Chicken with Red Dates and Ginseng, Lychee Velvet Gateaux, and more in their Jubilant Abundance Feast. Buffet pricing depends on when you're dining:
| Peppermint Jubilant Abundance buffet prices (Now till 25 Feb 2024) | Adult | Child |

6. The Line buffet at Shangri-La Hotel ($78++ to $118++)
[embed]https://www.instagram.com/p/C1_Gs0uIu5s/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link[/embed]
The holy grail of all international buffets in Singapore is The Line at Shangri-La Hotel. Pre-covid, you’d have to book your spot a month or so in advance to secure yourself a slot.
Then, you could brag about it to your colleagues while you wait for the entire month: "I'm going to The Line soon leh, what should I wear? What should I eat?" Of course, there is only one correct answer: "You're going to an international buffet, wear loose clothes and eat everything lah!"
Good news for these buffet show-offers, even after taking a hit during the peak of the Covid-19 pandemic, The Line's buffet menu still features the Snow Crab, and salmon and tuna sashimi that they intend to spam eat. However, things like lobsters and scallops are only available on the Sunday Brunch and Seafood Extravaganza (Thursday night) menus, and we sadly don't see oysters on any menu.
An important thing to note about The Line is that their lunch and dinner buffets only run from Thursday to Sunday. From Monday to Wednesday, you can only dine from their a-la-carte menu. Here are The Line's buffet prices:
| The Line buffet prices (Adults) | ||
| Lunch (12.30pm – 2.30pm) | Dinner (6pm – 9.30pm) | |
| Thursday | $78++ | $118++ |
| Friday | $78++ | $98++ |
| Saturday | $78++ | $98++ |
| Sunday | $118++ | $98++ |
Children six to 11 years old pay 50% of the adult price. Children below six years old dine for free with every one paying adult.
For Chinese New Year 2024, The Line is presenting a grand feast: their Hearty Spring Reunion Buffet. On top of succulent Chinese-roasted meats, look forward to Braised Pork Knuckle, Prosperity Yu Sheng with Smoked Salmon, Peking Duck Pizza, and more! Here’s a look at The Line’s CNY buffet pricing from Feb 1 to 24, 2024:
| The Line CNY 2024 buffet | Price (Adult) | Price (Child 6-11 years old) |
| Festive Lunch (1-3, 5-8, 12-17, 19-24 Feb 2024) | $78++ | $39++ |
| Festive Dinner (2-7, 12 & 13, 16-21, 23 & 24 Feb 2024) | $98++ | $49++ |
| Seafood Extravaganza Night (1, 8, 15 & 22 Feb 2024) | $118++ | $59++ |
| Sunday Brunch (4, 11 & 18 Feb 2024) | $118++ | $59++ |
| Lunar New Year Eve and Day 1 Lunch (9 & 10 Feb 2024) | $118++ | $59++ |
| Lunar New Year Day 2 Lunch (11 Feb 2024) | $108++ | $54++ |
| Lunar New Year Eve (9 Feb 2024) | $118++ | $59++ |
| Lunar New Year Day 1 & 2 Dinner (10 & 11 Feb 2024) | $198++ (Includes alcohol) | $74++ |
7. Landmark 1-for-1 buffet at Village Hotel Bugis ($75.50++ to $92.50++)
[embed]https://www.instagram.com/p/C2CnGX7Bvlq/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link[/embed]
Need a hotel setting and an international buffet menu to impress your date… but on a budget? At Village Hotel Bugis, Landmark's 1-for-1 buffet from $75.50++ ($90.52 nett) for two pax is your best bet.
Wait, what is Village Hotel Bugis even? It's that grey-ish looking building that you always pass by en route to Haji Lane, with escalators leading up to a dingy shopping arcade full of vintage tailor and Chinese cheongsam shops.
Yup, your date won't be the most impressed with the walk there… so maybe you'd want to take a Grab or any other ride-hailing service directly to the hotel's drop off point.
Landmark buffet offers three menus, namely Menu A, B, and C, and they're all halal-certified and all applicable for the permanent 1-1 buffet deals Landmark has. The only downside is that the spreads aren't quite as extensive as the others on this list. But then again, neither are their prices as high, so we can't really complain.
| Landmark buffet prices | ||
| Adults | Children (3-7 years old) | |
| 1-1 Lunch (Mon – Sun) | $75.50++ | $15++ |
| 1-1 Weekday dinner (Mon – Thu) | $84.50++ | |
| 1-1 Weekend dinner (Fri – Sun, PH & eve of PH) | $92.50++ | |
Lunch: 12pm – 2.30pm. Dinner: 6.30pm – 10pm.
8. Oscar’s buffet at Conrad Centennial Singapore ($68++ to $188++)
[embed]https://www.instagram.com/p/C1idb00RQTC/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link[/embed]
If you crave the variety of buffets but also can’t live without freshly cooked food, Oscar's at Conrad Centennial Singapore may be the solution. Their buffet comes with both a sumptuous buffet spread as well as live stations, such as a noodle bar and Asian and Western stations.
That doesn’t mean they skimp on the free-flow buffet items; you can expect the usual international buffet culprits such as lobsters and oysters on ice, sashimi, salads, and dishes from Asia and the West.
Oscar’s offers three buffet dining options: weekday lunch (12pm – 2.30pm), daily dinner (6pm – 10.30pm), and weekend brunch (12.30pm – 3.30pm). Here are their buffet prices from now till Feb 25, with the exclusion of Feb 9-12 when their CNY special menu applies:
| Oscar’s buffet prices | ||
| Adults | Children (6 – 12 years old) | |
| Weekday lunch (Mon – Fri) | $68++ | $34++ |
| Mon – Tue dinner | $88++ | $44++ |
| Wed – Sun dinner | $98++ | $49++ |
| Weekend brunch | $108++ (soft drinks and juices only) / $188++ (with alcohol) | – |
From Feb 9-12, 2024, Oscar's is celebrating the Lunar New Year with a special spread-indulge in seafood on ice (oysters and lobsters included!), charcoal barbecued meats, and more. Highlights include Lamb Navarin, Beef Stroganoff, Miso Glazed Seabass with Sake Clam Kombu Broth & Shimeji Mushroom, and Spicy Sambal Lobster.
If you're a sweet tooth like me, let me assure you Oscar's has come up with a sumptuous dessert spread for CNY 2024 too, including Sakura Rice Mousse, Jasmine Brulee, Homemade Green Smith Apple Crumble, Deep-fried 'Nian Gao', a live waffle station, chocolate fountain, and ice cream station. Yup, I may have to start with dessert first for this buffet.
| Oscar’s CNY buffet pricing | Price per person (Soft drinks and juices package / Alcoholic beverages package) |
|---|---|
| 9 February Dinner | $128++ / $208++ |
| 10 & 11 February Brunch & Dinner | $108++ / $188++ |

| 12 February Dinner | $88++ / N/A |
Credit card promotions for up to 15% off at Oscar's:
- UOB: 15% off lunch, brunch and dinner when you pay using a UOB credit card.
9. Rise buffet at Marina Bay Sands ($56++ to $115++)
Rise’s international buffet aims to give you "the world at your table"-their words, not ours. The classy restaurant located at the Marina Bay Sands Tower 1 lobby offers a selection of food from Thai and Vietnamese cuisines, local Singapore delights, and the usual buffet fare of seafood on ice, sashimi, sushi, carved meats, and a spread of Asian and Western desserts.
Their weekday lunch buffet stands out for being one of the most affordable ones on this list, starting from $68++. Who knew, right? And at Marina Bay Sands too! Plus, if you're a Sands Rewards member, you can get 10 per cent off for their lunch and dinner buffet.

12. American Express - Love Dining programme's buffet dining promotions 2024
Unlike its competitors, American Express doesn’t offer 1-for-1 buffets to anyone with a credit card. Instead, you need to sign up for the Amex Platinum Card in order to get decent buffet discounts.
The Platinum card lets you take part in Amex’s dining programme, Love Dining, which gives you up to 50% off at atas restaurants and hotel buffets in Singapore. To get the maximum 50% discount, you need to dine with one friend/date. Otherwise, your discount ranges from only 15% to 35%.
Participating dining establishments for hotel buffets include:
- Asian Market Cafe (Fairmont Singapore)
- Crossroads Buffet (Singapore Marriott Tang Plaza Hotel)
- Ellenborough Market Café (Paradox Singapore – Merchant Court at Clarke Quay)
- CLOVE (Swissôtel The Stamford)
- Brasserie Les Saveurs (The St. Regis Singapore)
13. Other credit cards to consider signing up for
14. Best dining deals that are alternatives to buffets
Aside from the promotional validity dates, many of these promotions are limited to a certain number of diners per day or promotional period. If for whatever reason you’re not able to get a seat, don’t despair — there are other food reward and dining apps to help you save on that buffet feast, including Chope, The Entertainer, Burpple Beyond, and Fave.
