Cameron Hotel

A 2006 photo of the Cameron Hotel, thanks to Peter Chan.  It was popular with RAF personnel in transit to the UK after their engagement was over.  Cameron Hotel is located at Guan Soon Avenue, off Upper Changi Road.  Jeffery Abdullah adds, that this hotel is located very near to Simei Housing Estate. If you take the MRT, the station that you need to alight will be SIMEI MRT Stn and then its a walking distance cutting through the footpath next to the new condominiums and private houses.
