The current Fort Canning Hotel has been fully renovated and rebranded into the Mett Hotel Singapore, with plans to introduce another new hotel sometime in the future too. Mr Phillip Kneupfer, the former General Manager of Mandarin Oriental Singapore, spearheaded this project; you might remember him going viral a few years ago for sending letters to nearby hotels when Mandarin Oriental took a breather for renovations.

To call Mett Hotel Singapore “accessible” would be an understatement. It’s located a mere 5 minutes away from Orchard Road, 10 minutes from Marina Bay and a short stroll to Clarke Quay.

Nightly rates at the new hotel in Singapore start from $400, and they even have dog-friendly rooms, 2 padel courts, 5 dining spots, and even a vintage sidecar service.

4. Mandai Rainforest Resort by Banyan Tree


New hotel in Singapore with direct access to 5 Mandai Wildlife Reserve parks


Mandai Rainforest Resort

If spending just a day at Mandai Wildlife Reserve isn’t enough for you, you can stay overnight at Mandai Rainforest Resort by Banyan Tree. The 4.6 ha nature resort consists of 338 rooms (from $409/night) and 24 luxury pod-shaped treehouses (from $1,381/night).

Rainforest room features

Each treehouse clocks in at a roomy 678 sqft, and is equipped with a king-sized bed, minibar, coffee-making station, and an atas bathroom. The beds directly face the Upper Seletar Reservoir, so you’ll start your day with million-dollar sunrise views. And just when you think it can’t get any better, each treehouse guest has access to a beautiful oval-shaped infinity sky pool.

Mandai Rainforest Resort facilities

As with any luxury resort, you can expect a range of facilities such as restaurants, a rooftop swimming pool, and a fully-equipped gym. Since the resort is all about blending in with nature, don’t be surprised if you spot the occasional monkey casually strolling by – a reminder of how the resort’s designed to fit into nature, not the other way around.

What not many luxury resorts can boast about, however, is being a stone’s throw away from 5 nature and wildlife parks, namely the Bird Paradise, Singapore Zoo, River Wonders, Night Safari, and Rainforest Wild ASIA.

10. Citadines Science Park


Studio lofts from $172.70/night


The Science Park would seem like the last place anyone would go to for a staycation. After all, it’s a tech hub nearer to MNC HQs like Grab and Razer than the best Singapore attractions. But that doesn’t mean you should be sleeping on Citadines Science Park.

The apartment sleeps a maximum of 2, but there’s plenty of room for the gang to stop by for a birthday celebration.

Handwritten Singapore Waterloo is nestled in Waterloo Street, surrounded by rich heritage sites like Kwan Im Thong Hood Cho Temple.

The beautiful thing about Singapore is that you’ll find religious sites from different faiths coexisting side by side. Just a minute’s walk away is the Sri Krishnan Temple, one of the most beautiful Hindu temples in the city. When the hotel opens in Q4 2025, it’s the perfect time to live like a tourist for a day in your own country, surrounded by the sights and sounds of cultures that form Singapore.

While there’s no official information about its room rates yet, we can perform an educated guess based on another hotel under the same Handwritten Collection brand. Their hotel at Faber Park has rooms starting around $200/night, so it’s safe to assume that this new spot will be priced similarly, if not around the same ballpark.
