7. How to get the cheapest hotel brunch in Singapore

Step 1: Check the hotel’s own page or our 1-for-1 buffet guide for the current bank card promo. Hotel-tied programmes change every few weeks, so always verify before booking.

Step 2: Pay with a dining cashback card on top of the discount. Citi Cash Back (6%, S$80/mo combined cap), HSBC Live+ (5%) or Maybank Family & Friends (8% weekends).

Step 3: Birthday month? Call ahead — many hotels offer complimentary cake or waive one cover, though policies vary.

Step 4: Book via the hotel site/app for loyalty points (Marriott Bonvoy, Hilton Honors, IHG, Accor Plus).

Worked example

Colony Sunday Champagne Brunch at $230++ per adult. With the HSBC cardmember 10% discount = $207++ per adult (~$249 nett after service charge + GST). Stack HSBC Live+ 5% dining cashback = approximately $237 effective — a $13 saving on top of the discount.
