CoWorkSpace sits in the heart of Singapore's CBD at 6 Raffles Quay, #16-01, Singapore 048580, a prime spot that is especially convenient if you are commuting by MRT.

Here is what "near Raffles Place" means in real terms:

~2 minutes' walk from Raffles Place MRT (East West Line), using Exit I.
Very close to a taxi drop-off point, taxi stand E16 (commonly referred to as the Hong Leong taxi stand).
Quick access from Downtown MRT (Downtown Line), with a straightforward walking route via the One Raffles Quay / Hong Leong Building side.

Directions by Taxi, MRT and Car

This is the simplest route if you are coming from another part of the CBD, from a hotel, or from the airport.

Tell the driver: "6 Raffles Quay".
If helpful, add: "Taxi stand E16 (Hong Leong taxi stand), near Raffles Place MRT Exit I."
From the drop-off area, follow building signage to the lobby and take the lifts up to #16-01.

Pro tip: During weekday peak periods, "Hong Leong Building taxi stand" tends to be understood quickly by drivers.

If you are in a rush, that extra reference can save a minute of back-and-forth.
