Singapore Marriott Completes Refurb; Launches 2 New Room Categories

The Singapore Marriott Hotel, perhaps best known for its iconic green pagoda roof at the corner of Scotts Road and Orchard Road, has completed a Sin$ 35 million refurbishment.

As the most extensive project of its kind in the hotel’s 17-year history, all guest rooms have been overhauled to offer guests more efficient use of space with newly installed bathrooms and ergonomically optimized furniture.

Most notably two new room categories have been introduced: Premier Deluxe Rooms and Studio Rooms.

This latest renovation, undertaken by world renowned design team, Hirsch Bedner Associates (HBA) gives the hotel a new lease of life with décor that is classic yet contemporary using neutral colours and bold accent fabrics.

Rooms have been fitted with state-of-the-art furnishings including two signature 1956 leather Eames Desk Chairs. Bathrooms now come with large walk-in rain showers as well as extended vanity areas and technology upgrades include a 46-inch Samsung Full-HD Smart TV in every room.

The once traditional hotel lobby has been converted into a more welcoming open plan zone, while Marriott Cafe has extended seating and an open kitchen block. A brand new F&B concept, Java+ completes the refurbishment.

“We are extremely pleased with the results of six months of hard work,” said Mr. Thoo Kah Fah, Chief Operating Officer & Executive Director of Tang Holdings who funded the project. “Singapore Marriott Hotel is now fresh and contemporary bringing it in-line with the city’s newest openings. It is a major milestone and we look forward to the next chapter of growth as Singapore’s premier address.”

Since the Singapore Marriott Hotel opened in 1995 a total sum of Sin$ 130 million has been invested in its upkeep.
