Somerset Road is a major road in the Orchard shopping belt of Singapore. It runs in a single direction from east to west, beginning at the intersection with Killiney Road and Penang Road, and ending at the T-junction with Grange Road.

Somerset Road was named after William Somerset Maugham, the English novelist who spent time in the Malay peninsula, including some years in Singapore, in the 1930's. Located between Somerset Road and Orchard Road is the Somerset MRT Station (NS23) served by the North-South Line.
