SINGAPORE is an ever-thriving tourist and business hub, home to some of the best luxury experiences in Asia.

But amidst all the activity are some pretty swanky hotels where the well-heeled stay and socialize. Here, we point you in the direction of some of our favorites in Singapore:

The St. Regis Singapore

St. Regis is the height of luxury in Singapore, a spectacularly decadent space for the elite.
Situated smack in the heart of Singapore’s luxury shopping district, the hotel is the most well-connected you’ll be in the city, within easy walking distance is Orchard Road, the Singapore Botanic Gardens and Dempsey Hill.

The hotel features 299 luxurious guestrooms and suites, fitted out with plush custom furniture of a timeless design. Each room is a portrait of opulence, set out to astound even the most jaded of travelers.

The Presidential Suite is the most lavish of them, and looks like something out of a Victorian painting. Each expansive suite is fitted with hand-cut crystal chandeliers, a walk-in wardrobe, a Jacuzzi, a baby grand piano, a marble steam chamber, and an adjoining private gym.

The hotel’s bespoke Butler Service is both detailed and unobtrusive, and includes services like unpacking of luggage, shoe-shining, garment-pressing, and delivery of freshly brewed coffee. Anything at all that guests might need, a butler is but a ring away.

Come dinner time, St. Regis Singapore’s signature restaurant Yan Ting is the ideal fix for guests and fellow gourmands on the hunt for fine Cantonese cuisine. Tuck into favourites like double-boiled sea whelk soup with black garlic, or the popular stir-fried Waygu beef. Read our full review…

The Ritz-Carlton, Millenia Singapore

Ritz Carlton SingaporeFor a glitzy getaway, The Ritz-Carlton offers some of the best views from anywhere in Singapore. Rooms and suites feature wide glass windows that offer panoramic views of the city beyond; at night, the twinkling lights of the Marina Bay against the inky midnight blue of the sky is breathtaking.

The Premier Suites are modern and clean, perfect for a night’s stay. Meanwhile, The Ritz Suite is a bit more upscale, and features an entertainment room with Sonos sound system, a walk-in closet, and a Jacuzzi tub. The suite can fit up to 10, and is perfect for an intimate party.

The Ritz-Carlton is particularly enticing for business travelers with a full-service business center on-site catering to every need. Whether it’s copies you want made, parcels you need delivered, or meeting spaces you want arranged, efficient staff will get it sorted out.

Location wise, The Ritz-Carlton is in the vicinity of some of Singapore’s biggest attractions including Esplanade – Theatres by the Bay, where some of the world’s best West End and Broadway productions are showcased. The Singapore Flyer is also nearby, a giant Ferris wheel that is beautifully lit at night.

W Singapore Sentosa Cove

W SingaporeIn Singapore, a bustling concrete jungle, it’s rare to be able to sneak into a tropical setting for a relaxing weekend. But to get away from the heart of the action, put up in the resort island of Sentosa where W Singapore is undoubtedly the best hotel option.

Rooms here are tropic-inspired, complemented by ocean views and mood-lighting, all which bring out W’s trademark sophisticated-yet-laidback vibe. The Wow Suite is the stylish luxury resort suite for the modern traveler – neon-hued and impeccably embellished with loud furniture. The Extreme Wow Suite is similar, but as its name suggests, even more decadent.

It’s not a stay at W without a colorful cocktail at Woo Bar, the brand’s stylish lounge bar. A chic setting, bespoke drinks crafted with herbs from the garden, and acclaimed DJs at the console make for a memorable night. If out in a group, the Night Shots are a fun choice, served in decorative bird cages.

If going on holiday with kids, W Singapore is nearby some of the island’s best family-friendly attractions including Universal Studios, the S.E.A. Aquarium, Adventure Cove Waterpark, the Mega Adventure Park, and cable car rides.

Naumi Hotel

Naumi HotelNaumi is a contemporary retreat oozing with style, ideal for the modern traveler who prefers to stray from the giant chains. The hotel is located in the heart of the Central Business District, the fascinating Mint Museum, and the Raffles City shopping center.

Rooms are adorned with funky flourishes and are themed around international icons like Andy Warhol and Coco Chanel. The Warhol room is filled with interesting shapes and dramatic colors, while the Chanel suite is more minimalist featuring black and white panels, and wall art of the iconic Camellia. There’s also a Privacy level, where additional keycard access is required.

Come night time, dine at Table by Rang Mahal, an Indian restaurant that replaces garish décor with a set-up that’s modern and minimalist. After dinner, head to Naumi Bar & Lounge, a sleek rooftop bar Cloud 9 where guests can sip single malts within view of the Esplanade.
