Wyndham Hotel Group s Ramada and Days Inn brands
are to enter Singapore with the development of two hotels: the
391-room Ramada Singapore at Zhongshan Park and the 405-room Days
Hotel Singapore at Zhongshan Park.
Both new-build properties will be developed by
HH Properties Pte. Ltd., a joint venture between niche property
development group, Hiap Hoe Limited, and SuperBowl Holdings
Limited, an owner and manager of leisure and commercial
properties. Construction will begin early this year and the hotels
are expected to open in 2014.
To be managed by Wyndham Hotel Group, the
properties will be built on Balestier Road, just opposite Sun Yat
Sen Nanyang Memorial Hall, a national monument that pays tribute
to the father of the 1911 Chinese Revolution. The Balestier Road
area, rich in history, is home to countless shop houses dating
back to the 1840s. With a land area of approximately 17,600 square
meters, the hotels will flank Zhongshan Park, creating a unique
integrated development with a strong heritage connection and old
world charm.
“Singapore is one of the most important business
and leisure destinations in the Asia Pacific region and we are
thrilled to introduce our Ramada and Days Inn brands to the
market,” said Tom Monahan, Wyndham Hotel Group executive vice
president of international development. “We are excited to work
with HH Properties as we expand our global footprint.”
The
17-story Ramada Singapore at Zhongshan Park will include a full
service restaurant, fitness center, swimming pool, business center
and more than 600 square-meters of meeting space.
The
14-story Days Hotel Singapore at Zhongshan Park will feature
amenities including a full service restaurant and fitness center.
This will be the first Days Inn property to be managed by Wyndham
Hotel Group. The company has a managed portfolio of nearly 30
hotels.
“We have spent a considerable amount of time
planning the project and are now looking forward to seeing it take
shape,” said Teo Ho Beng, managing director of the Hiap Hoe Group.
“We selected Wyndham Hotel Group to manage the hotels based on the
company’s strong brands and track record and are really excited
about the opportunity to work with the Hotel Group.”
