Tranquil Residence In The Heart of City
Parc Emily is in the heart of city within short walking distance to 4 MRT stations, Rochor, Little India, Bencoolen, Dhoby Ghaut. Despite being in a bustling area, you don't get sound of busy traffic, as it's up an exclusive lane, Mount Emily Road. It's right next to Mount Emily Park, a nice spot for walk or run. Condo comes with large pool, functional gym and tennis court. Most neighbours are expats from different parts of the world. Friendly professionals. Tenants include singles, couples and family. Only drawback is lack of supermarket to do grocery shopping after Cold Storage relocated, so 1 star deducted. I've lived here for 15 years, and tried looking for another place to move to but have not found one more convenient and conducive. It's truly a lovely place I call home. -

Parc Emily
Near to Mount Emily Park at the tail end of Mount Emily. One can reach CTE, PIE and MCE fairly quickly and is at the juncture of Little India and Orchard -

Don't judge by exterior look
Location wise best. Rest is up to individual taste. Poor management. Noisy neighbour partying. Sorry not my cup of coffee. -

Huge Potential - Hip and trendy area
Parc Emily is a true gem. Under 300 units - not a mass condo, with full (gorgeous pool) facilities. And its right smack in town. With 2 new MRTs nearby (Bencoolen + Rochor upcoming), its walking distance to 4 MRT stations. The whole area is undergoing major transformation with snazzy restaurants, designer furniture stores and new malls. Walking distance to the Art district - but Parc Emily is the gem in the area simply cos the other developments tend to be small, without much facilities. A full facility condo in town under 2000psf?! Its a no brainer. -

Location + facilities
200m away from future DTL Little India MRT interchange (which is 1 stop from Dhoby Ghaut MRT interchange), next to Mount Emily Park; which is right next to gate of Istana (good fengshui). Full condo facilities (such as tennis court, 50m lap pool, spacious gym, pool side bbq), ample parking space for residents and guests, so dont need to worry if you are throwing a party. Stone throw from Tekka wet market where you can find fresh and cheap food, plus great food at the hawker center and little india area. Once LTA finish the construction of DTL in 2015, expect to see many development such as hotels and restaurants along Mckenzie Road. -

Location good but otherwise....
I second the Review given earlier that location is good but there is a lot lacking in the unit ,ie not much ventilation,no sound insulation ,mold ,small rooms- wasted space. -

Actually, there are no charges for facilities
Just to correct the below review, there aren't actually any charges for facilities at Parc Emily. At the Annual General Meeting there was a vote to introduce fees but the council have not implemented them. I have lived at Parc Emily for more than 18 months and would highly recommend it. Our apartment faces the retaining wall so is very quiet and having lived over in the Orchard area before it is great to be away from traffic and building noise. Not that many people know about Parc Emily but those who do realize that it is a hidden gem. When we were looking for an apartment we must have looked at about 20 to 30 other places in the River Valley and Orchard areas and Parc Emily had by far the most interesting layouts of apartments and sense of space and tranquility -

Charges for facilities a drawback
I have been living in parc emily for the past year and really enjoy it. For me it's very quiet, even in a busy area. I have heard that they have introduced charges for using the facilities now including the bbq and gym. It is now 10 dollars to use the bbq and I hear that it is going to double this year, which will make it more expensive to use than the ones in east coast park. I'm not sure how much it costs to use the gym, but I am thinking more seriously about getting a private gym membership now, as the equipment in the parc emily gym could be improved. Don't get me wrong, I love living here, but I feel that implementing small charges at first can only lead to higher charges down the line, which will just result in unused facilities. Also agree with other poster on the quality of furnishings, and that they are more for short/medium term use, not long term. One of my neighbouring units had renovations in December and the condo is 4 yrs old now. Thanks Sam -

Lovely Lovely condo...
I read with surprise at some reviewer slamming Parc Emily. I've many friends that live at Parc Emily and I visit them often. Having visited many condominiums of expat friends in the past, I must say Parc Emily is one of THE nicest in terms of environment, facilities, greenery, huge pool, exclusivity etc.... In fact, the fittings both inside and outside surrounding the condo facilities area are of very high quality! I recommend this place for anyone who is looking for a place to stay that has character, vibrancy and proximity to all the MRTs (Little India, Dhoby Ghaut, Bugis, Rochor..) -
