Accor Opens Ibis Hotel on Balestier Road in Singapore

Accor has opened its second ibis hotel in Singapore.

The ibis Singapore Novena, located on Balestier Road, features 241 compact rooms equipped with a 32-inch LCD TV, complimentary broadband and Wi-Fi Internet access, in-room safe and a large bay window. It also operates an in-house launderette and a fitness centre.

Ms. Shamila Rolfe, General Manager, ibis Singapore Novena, said, “The Singapore Tourism Board expects 12 to 13 million visitors to arrive in Singapore in 20111 resulting in a strong demand for centrally located, quality yet affordable accommodations. ibis Singapore Novena, is ideally positioned to meet this demand and as evidenced through our current bookings; we expect the hotel to become a favourite among visitors from neighbouring countries such as Malaysia, Philippines and Indonesia as well of course as longer haul markets.”

The hotel is located around 10 to 15 minutes by foot from the Novena MRT station, and is also within walking distance of some excellent dining options, including the Whampoa Makkan Centre - which is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner (all day, every day) and is one of the best places to enjoy local cuisine - and what could well be the Best Chicken Rice in Singapore.

To celebrate its opening, the hotel is offering a special rate of Sin$ 128++ until 30 December 2011.
