SUMMARY
The Singapore Airlines SilverKris (Business Class) Lounge in Terminal 3 of the Changi Airport is an excellent business class lounge in Singapore Airlines home port.
The lounge is a huge area with multiple hot and cold food options with an Asian focus but also western style food. A brilliant way to refresh before a long flight.

SUMMARY
The Singapore Airlines SilverKris (Business Class) Lounge is an okay way to spend some time before a flight and especially good for a shower before your flight for hydration. It has an okay food and drink selection range. It’s not that big, and it feels a little outdated and, like most of the Business Lounges in this area of the Melbourne Airport, has no views or direct sunlight.
If you can it is better to access Singapore Airlines’ Star Alliance partner lounge the Air New Zealand Koru (Business Class) Lounge instead which I found to be a gem.

SUMMARY
A very nice modern and large Business Class Lounge that allows some limited views of the tarmac from the underside of the airplanes. Very pleasant staff and a good range of food (loved the ANZAC biscuits).
I found this better than the Singapore Airlines SilverKris (Business Class) Melbourne Lounge that I visited later and where most travellers on Singapore Airlines would visit.
