we would think that 4 - 6 days would be enough. as singapore is a small city , there isn't a need to stay in singapore for a long period of time. it is also not cheap to stay in singapore for a long time as the standard hotels in singapore is ranged about $300-$500 per night. some tourists don't stay that long as they usually tour around our neighbouring countries as well. a long stay in singapore is not necessary unless people are here to work.

I would say about three to  a week . You can visit Sentosa, Changi Chapel to learn about World War 2, restaurants near Singapore River to take dinner and see the Merlion, go to the famous chinese temple in Bugis, go to Little India and Arab for Indian and Malays architecture and culture repectively, walk around Orchard Road for shopping, etc. The one week time span really allows you to understand the culture of singapore better.

Hi

1-2 weeks as that would be an average time for tourist to explore attractions in Singapore.
They could slowly take their time in Singapore to visit various attraction as there would be enough time for them to visit
However, tourist would not be recommended to Singapore for more than 2 weeks if they do not have a visa.Otherwise, they have to pay an extra fee.
In conclusion, tourist should not stay too long in Singapore if not they would have a bad impression in Singapore when they have to pay extra money for various reasons..

According to TripAdvisor's Question - and - answers ( Q n A )  , tourist across the globe would spend at most 3 to 5 nights here in Singapore . The reason  would be that the tourist who comes to Singapore has many other countries to visit in South  East Asia , some stated that there is so much that they can do within the 5 nights . While , some stated that if they would have stayed much shorter , it would be a rush for them to enjoy and visit most of the attraction sites in Singapore . Some also stated that if they would stay for a long time , they would get bored as some stated , not much things attracts their attention other than Singapore's rich culture , delicious food and many more . To sum up my answer , the tourist would stay in Singapore for at most 3 - 5 nights . Thank you

Singapore has many attractions and can easily take at least a week for you to explore most of them.

There is so much in Singapore that everyone can afford, especially food, and eventhough many of Singapore's attractions are expensive and they're not that much ,however, they are attractive and exciting . So what the tourists loose on the swings, they gain on the roundabouts. These makes the tourist to have the urge to tour and know more about Singapore. It takes roughly around 1 day to enjoy 1 or 2 attractions in Singapore.

Therefore, 1 week would be enough for tourists to tour Singapore as it is a small country which result in not many attractions is available.

According to the research that has been searched from the internet and compiled together, these are the several pointers I would like to point out.

Firstly, is about the duration of stay that tourists visit Singapore for a holiday in which tourists are given 30 days social visit visa irrespective to the number of days they intend to stay endorsed by the Immigration and Checkpoint Authority of Singapore. Since this is a multiple entry visa which provides tourists with the convenience and accessibility to enter and exit Singapore within 30 days time frame using the same visa and can be obtained again and multiple times once you have completed the 30 days period.

Moreover, the majority of tourists do not require a visa to visit Singapore during their stay. But then, in some cases, it is compulsory for them to obtain a visa application beforehand and needs to be approved by the local authorities for clearance and approval to enter the country. To further elaborate on this point, almost 80% of citizens of the world's countries are able to travel to Singapore for a period of 30 days or 90 days without a visa, depending on their nationality.

However, Singapore has shortened from 90 or 30 days to just 3 days due to the average length of stay (ALOS) for tourists as it has been deteriorated rapidly since its peak of 4. 4 days in 2014 which cause Singapore hoteliers have lesser faith to hope for with the influx of tourists. According to a report by UOB Kay Hian, the overall ALOS for all tourists is shrinking at 6.7%. It was mainly due to the declining ALOS of Chinese tourists, which declined to 24% to around 3 days resulting in the loss in profits.

Multiple pieces of evidence can be found in Singapore Business Review which states that "this might well be explained by the increased in Chinese land travel to Singapore from Malaysia, propelling overall Chinese arrival growth," Chang noted. The brokerage firm pointed out that the proportion of Chinese land travel to Singapore has increased from a low of 15.7% in 2014 to a year-to-date high of 25.2% in 7M16. In addition, the majority of Chinese tourists have tighter budget constraints. Chinese per capita expenditure on hotels fell by 5% YoY to $211 in 1Q16. This is 40% lower compared to the peak of $352 in 2014. The report said this could help explain the increase in cross-border travels, with neighbouring countries such as Johor Bahru are likely engaged with tour groups who have more restricted spending plans. "Our channel checks suggest these visitors came in tour groups are usually budget-conscious towards their accommodation. Singapore hospitality REITs also largely do not accommodate to such tour groups as they operate in the mid- and upper-tier segments," UOB said.

On the other hand, what I have found on the Internet is the time duration that tourists usually stay on a business trip. The duration of your business trip depends on your country's visa relationship with Singapore such that only top-tier countries can enjoy the maximum duration for their business visit, up to 90 days. Alternatively, a multiple entry business visas require making breaks during their 9-week stay.

However, if you are eligible for entry, you will receive a Visit Pass which will indicate the period of stay granted but while in Singapore, with a visit pass, you are not permitted to engage in any business, professional or paid employment activities within the country.

Hence, I can conclude that the time frame for tourists to stay in Singapore is subjective to suit every individual as tourists must fulfil the criteria that are required for entry such as the purpose of visit, likewise the required documentation presented in its favourable conditions for approval of applications to take place.

From 5 days to 2 weeks. Because anything less than 1 week would not allow tourists to see sights such as the Parliament House.
Another factor that prevents long stays is because Singapore's hotel rates is one of the most expensive in the world. As such , a long stay would be financially unfeasible. Furthermore the staying for more than 30 days will result in a fine.
