“As a hub and key city destination for business and leisure travellers, we are optimistic about the growth potential of Singapore’s hospitality scene as recovery begins and travel resumes over the long-term,” said Paul Hutton, Hilton's vice president, operations, Southeast Asia.
“We are delighted to start a brand new year with the launch of a significant addition to our regional portfolio through the opening of Hilton Singapore Orchard, which will represent a true landmark Hilton hotel in an important gateway city for Southeast Asia, and look forward to continue delivering our renowned levels of Hilton hospitality to everyone who passes through the doors of the hotel.”
With 1,080 refurbished rooms and suites across two towers, the hotel will be one of the largest hotels in Singapore, Hilton said in a press release. There will be a variety of room and suite categories, including connecting rooms for families that can be instantly confirmed at the time of reservation.
The rooms and suites are designed with a botanical theme, to pay homage to Singapore as a city in a garden.
Amenities include two 24-hour fitness centres, an outdoor pool and a newly established Executive Lounge. The hotel is also directly connected to Mandarin Gallery.
As for dining, Mandarin Orchard’s current Chatterbox restaurant and two Michelin-starred Shisen Hanten will be retained. Hilton Singapore Orchard will also debut three new F&B offerings featuring an all-day dining, a specialty restaurant and a lobby lounge and bar.
For events, the hotel will feature 16 extensively renovated event spaces spanning more than 2,400 sq m. These event spaces will accommodate meetings, conventions, exhibitions, weddings as well as other social celebrations.
The hotel will also feature two unique pillarless ballrooms fitted with state-of-the-art LED walls, lighting and sound technologies that can cater to around 1,000 guests.
