Mövenpick Heritage Hotel Sentosa to Open Heritage Wing 1 December 2012

Mövenpick Heritage Hotel Sentosa will be concluding its construction and revamp at the end of this month with the unveiling of its Heritage Wing – an integral part of the historical site, which blends old world charm with contemporary luxury, for guests - on 1 December 2012.

Featuring 62 spacious Heritage Suites – its namesake suite, a cigar lounge and whisky bar, this 70 plus-year-old section of the hotel has been given a fresh face-lift; allowing guests to step back in time amidst modern-day comforts.

With its location steeped in Singapore's rich colonial history, the hotel retained the essence of the original 1940s colonial architectural character when renovations were carried out on the wing.

The Heritage Wing is made up of two British quarters connected by covered link-ways at each of the three storeys, and this same layout can be seen today, with the link-ways serving as corridors along which the Heritage Suites are lined.

Beyond the external architectural elements, the hotel also retained elements like the conservation door and window frames to preserve the historical integrity of the Heritage Wing.

In the Heritage Suite, floor-to-ceiling windows allow soft light to flood the space revealing relaxing ochre shades, modern soft furnishing and wooden surfaces. Drawing on the use of the geographical features specific to each region, guests can look forward to relaxing in tastefully decorated suites that are decked out in natural, tropical elements like slate flooring in the bathrooms and natural wood finishings.

“Mövenpick Heritage Hotel Sentosa will continue to provide the trademark Swiss hospitality that can be experienced at all Mövenpick Hotels & Resorts worldwide, through our superior mix of rooms and suites,” said Andreas Mattmüller, Chief Operating Officer Middle East and Asia, Mövenpick Hotels & Resorts. “The signature onsen suite in Mövenpick Heritage Hotel Sentosa, for example, is targeted at guests who are looking for a unique experience in the tropics. Business travellers, on the other hand, will enjoy the executive and penthouse suites, which offer quiet relaxation in spacious and comfortable settings. We would like all our guests to come away from our hotel feeling exclusive and exceptional.”

The Heritage Wing will open its doors to guests with effect from 1 December 2012.
