Not in ALL – Accor Live Limitless
This property carries the ibis budget name but is not enrolled in ALL – Accor Live Limitless. A stay here earns no points and confers no elite benefits, so it is left out of this site's program counts, editor's picks and ranked guides. Everything below still applies -- it is simply not a loyalty stay.

ibis budget Singapore Ruby sits in Eastern Geylang at 10 Lorong 20 Geylang, about a 10-minute walk from Aljunied MRT Station and roughly a 4-minute drive from the Bugis shopping district. The 168-room economy hotel -- rebranded from the former Fragrance Hotel - Ruby -- offers compact 11-12 sqm rooms with free WiFi, air-conditioning and free on-site parking, in a neighborhood known for round-the-clock local food. Its own Accor listing shows a 4.3/5 guest rating from 67 reviews, and an independent blog trip report from January 2026 calls it reliable, clean, budget accommodation, while flagging Geylang's red-light-district reputation and limited workspace as things to know before booking. The hotel does not participate in the ALL - Accor Live Limitless loyalty programme.
