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

If you were thinking of basic rooms with just a bed and bathroom, then you’re in for a sweet surprise. You can book a stay in one of their studio rooms (from $192/night), which has floor-to-ceiling windows that look out to Kent Ridge Park.

Otherwise, spring for a 1-bedroom apartment (from $328/night) or studio loft ($256/night). The apartment sleeps a maximum of 2, but there’s plenty of room for the gang to stop by for a birthday celebration. As for the lofts, you get a cosy nook for sleeping in, separate from the living area. Both come with a fully-equipped kitchenette if you want to whip up a meal.

There’s no need to stay cooped up in your room while you’re here. Stay fit and active by working out at the gym and rooftop infinity pool. If you must do work while on vacation, do so in the quiet of the shared working space that’s open 24 hours.

Our country is known for many eye-catching buildings, from the futuristic Marina One to Raffles Hotel’s colonial-style facade. If you want the best of both worlds, 21 Carpenter is a new boutique hotel that takes over a former remittance house.

The hotel is part of Marriott’s portfolio of Design Hotels and has 2 categories of rooms: Heritage Rooms, which preserve the elements from the original architecture of the building, and Urban Rooms, the new building extension located on levels 5-8. Guests can also look forward to an open-air rooftop pool, a garden terrace, and Kee’s, a bistro and bar helmed by a Michelin-starred chef.

Rooftop pools aren’t exactly a rarity these days, but the one at COMO Metropolitan Singapore has a unique view of Orchard Road. You can wade around as you watch shoppers commute in search of their next purchase from your 19th-floor vantage point.

Opened in September 2023, the hotel occupies the upper floors of the COMO building on Bideford Road. Its location is great for shopaholics, as it’s just a walking distance from the malls along Orchard Road. You’ll also find a spa, gym, and atas eats like COTE Singapore and Cedric Grolet Singapore within the same building.

Those who take their cocktails seriously would probably be familiar with Regent Singapore. After all, it was home to Manhattan, one of Singapore’s most famous speakeasy bars. Well, as of December 2023, it has since been rebranded to Conrad Singapore Orchard.
And it’s not just a simple swap of signboards mind you, all 445 rooms and suites have been refurbished with new nature-themed interiors. The hotel still retains its iconic 12-storey high atrium, keeping the natural skylit lobby and bubble lifts, as well as its 10 F&B establishments, including Manhattan, Basilico, and Summer Palace.

When you think of themed hotels, you might think of Ji Hotel Orchard with its MUJI store aesthetics or the industrial-inspired designs at the Warehouse Hotel. From October 2023, Pullman Singapore Hill Street has been added to the list.
Inspired by the golden era of travel by luxury trains, this new hotel near City Hall has lobbies lined with vintage luggage and suitcases. Guests will also be greeted by friendly staff dressed as porters.

The rail-inspired decor carries over into the rooms, with fittings like a wardrobe that resemble passenger seating on an old-timey train. There’s even a well-placed mirror inside that adds to the illusion of it being a train car.

A stone’s throw away from Farrer Park MRT and City Square Mall is Owen House by Habyt. If you’re into vintage aesthetics, you’ll find geometric-shaped furniture and decor there that allude to the 1920s. There are also communal lounges on levels 2 and 4 if you’d like to socialise with other guests.

There are a total of 106 rooms, with 9 different categories to choose from. Of which, one is a family room with a balcony for families who want an extra airy room. Book directly at least 1 week in advance and you’ll get to enjoy up to 10% off daily rates.
The hotel’s most prominent art installation has to be the 6m-tall KAWS sculpture outside the lobby.

With tons of things to do in Chinatown, you can consider this spot for your next staycation. Opened in September 2023, Mondrian Singapore Duxton is one of the chicest new hotels in town. Heck, they’ve even got a 6m-tall KAWS sculpture greeting you outside the lobby.
Besides an Italian restaurant, the hotel is also home to Jungle Ballroom, a cocktail bar accessible via 2 secret entrances – a velvet curtain and a secret garden tunnel. The hotel is also located in the Duxton area – so you can easily find F&B options at the many restaurants and bars nearby.
Find a poolside bar on the rooftop with cabanas and plenty of art pieces lining the interiors.

For those who want a new profile photo for the ‘Gram, strike a pose against the artsy hotel interiors or lounge around by the rooftop swimming pool with panoramic views of Chinatown.
The hotel’s designers insisted on every room having a ceiling fan and access to a balcony.

Artyzen Singapore – part of a Hong Kong-based hotel chain, opened along Orchard Road in November 2023 for all who are in need of a little rejuvenation. At 20 storeys high, the hotel offers 134 standard rooms, as well as 8 suites for those looking for a more extravagant stay.

You won’t have to leave the hotel thanks to plenty of amenities within reach. This includes a bar, garden-themed spa, gym, outdoor pool, and a romantic rooftop restaurant alongside 2 other eateries.
HomeTeamNS’s Bukit Batok Villa is a popular staycation spot due to its affordability, especially for HomeTeamNS members. For the Easties, it might be cross-country to get there but hey, you now have the addition of the East Villas at Bedok Reservoir.
Choose from 2-storey villas such as the Superior Deluxe Reservoir (from $560.28) and Premium Reservoir (from $611.21), with each villa boasting a rooftop terrace for chill BBQs. You can also rent console games, board games, and mahjong sets to play with friends.
Guests also get complimentary access to the HomeTeamNS clubhouse’s infinity pool and gym. Plus, there are plenty of other things to do at the HomeTeamNS clubhouse.

The last time I slept in a bunk bed, it was on an island in the East and didn’t look a fraction as luxurious as the ones in The Serangoon House. Sporting British colonial-era furnishings, this hotel has bunk beds in each of its rooms.

For breakfast, head down to Together and Co, the hotel’s restaurant which offers an international buffet spread – there are even noodle and egg stations that prepare meals to your liking a la minute.
Those who love boutique luxury hotels would probably be familiar with EDITION Hotels, which has properties in cities like Barcelona, Milan, Tokyo, and West Hollywood. Well, the brand has made an entry to our shores with The Singapore Edition, where you’ll find 204 guestrooms and suites of minimal design but packed with hella luxurious furnishings.
Every EDITION hotel has the same spiral staircase, Singapore’s branch is no exception.

We’re talking, 65-inch flatscreens, Bang and Olufsen speakers, oak-planked floors, hand-sewn throw pillows, and adjustable louvres that draw back automatically like the ones you see in every chaebol’s house in K-dramas.

The Singapore EDITION also boasts a spa on their 2nd floor with all the facilities you would expect plus thermal pools, and an ice fountain – a machine that dispenses ice for chromotherapy.

For food, head to FYSH, a seafood-focused restaurant helmed by an award-winning Australian chef. We’d recommend completing date night at The Roof, a poolside semi-al fresco bar, or the Punch Room, a swanky cocktail bar splashed in a shade of electric blue.
The attic-styled Hideaway Rooms on the top floor offer guests more privacy.

Housed within the walls of a refurbished heritage building in the Keong Saik neighbourhood lies KINN Studios. Beginning their operations in late October 2023, this concept by KINN Hospitality has rooms with MUJI-style interiors inside their 4-storey space.
We’ve heard of hole-in-the-wall diners, but a concierge is a first.

Offering a conducive environment for guests to unwind, KINN provides experiences focused on tranquillity and mental wellness. An example is its collaboration with Safe Space to offer 10% off standard sessions with a therapist for guests, plus free counseling with Safe Space trainees.
Club-level rooms and suites offer direct access to the hotel’s pool.

Pan Pacific Orchard, which opened in June 2023 right in the heart of town, has not just 1, but 3 sky gardens. The hotel is also known for its uniquely “stacked” rooms facing picturesque sky terraces, each with a different theme.

Grab dinner at Mosella, a Mediterranean and Peruvian fusion restaurant, or enjoy a cocktail at Florette, a bar on their garden terrace.

If you think the architecture looks familiar, you’d be right on the money as the hotel was built in collaboration with WOHA Architects, the Singapore-based firm behind PARKROYAL COLLECTION Pickering. Besides its pretty facade, the hotel also focuses on sustainability with a food composting compactor, rainwater harvesting system, and recyclable water system.

Another hotel that opened in October 2023, Hotel Faber Park is located along Telok Blangah Road for guests seeking to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
Aside from 194 rooms, there’s also a restaurant, bar, and rooftop pool for hotel guests to enjoy. Foodies can look forward to the weekend buffet featuring a DIY laksa and rojak station at The White Tiffin Fusion, a Peranakan restaurant that recently opened on the ground floor of the hotel.

The hotel is located a few bus stops down from VivoCity, so if you’ve got plans at Sentosa like ZoukOut or Halloween Horror Nights, you won’t have to catch the last train home if you’re having a staycation here.
Boutique hotels make the most of their limited real estate – and ST Signature Bugis Middle certainly has with its eye-catching hand-painted exteriors. The property might be a co-living space, but each of the 38 rooms has its own bathroom – so you don’t have to worry about dorm-style living.
Cabin M, Executive Ensuite from $154/night

Extroverts can socialise at their 2 outdoor communal decks and a Cook Lab, where guests can prepare simple meals. PAssion Card members can enjoy up to 48% off room rates when they use the promo code <STXPA48> from now till 31st July 2025.

Amara Singapore has been standing along the bustling streets of Tanjong Pagar since May 1986. But glancing through their posh entryway today, the inside looks nothing short of sparkling new, with a cosy, modern look.
The hotel and its 389 rejuvenated rooms are sure to impress boo on your next anniversary getaway. Step into a gorgeous lobby with a wine bar and aesthetics inspired by ski resorts. Then, unwind in one of their no-expenses spared rooms washed in woody pinkish hues.

Like many of the more luxurious hotels out there, the spacious bedrooms come with a pillow menu and Club Room guests have access to evening tipples daily. Plus, if you are particular about hotel amenities like us, you may be pleased to hear that boujee Appelles Apothecary & Lab toiletries are provided in all rooms. And they smell like a literal dream.
P.S. There’s also the option to sign up for walking tours such as Triad Trails during your visit.
The Mandarin Oriental is one of Singapore’s OG hotels, having been built in the 1960s. And now that it’s back after a 6-month closure, it’s been refurbished with all-new rooms and suites.

It reopened in September 2023, so you can once again catch NDP fireworks from this bayside hotel from $621/night. Expect to find suites and rooms outfitted with new furnishings that are an ode to our local culture – think Batik patterns and lush botanical prints inspired by our “city in a garden”.

As for cuisine options, take your pick from Japanese, Cantonese, Italian, and American Steakhouse. The international buffet at their 5th restaurant, embu, even does weekend brunches with free-flow champagne and wine.
From Hollywood celebs and Formula 1 drivers to travel vloggers, anyone who’s anyone has stayed at the Marina Bay Sands. So it comes as no surprise that the hotel has introduced a new category of super luxurious suites – the new Paiza Collection.
Image credit: Marina Bay Sands
These brand-new suites come with 24/7 personal butler service, dining experiences, and access to private elevators. Those with specific needs also get to request personalised amenities like show kitchens, golf simulators, gym equipment, a spa, a grand piano, and even a private bar.

And did you even stay at MBS if you didn’t snap a photo at the world’s largest rooftop infinity pool? Guests of the Paiza Royal Experience Suites even get a professional photoshoot at the pool thrown in for free, as well as a free chauffeur service from Changi Airport. Well, all you have to do is pay $2,799/night.

Formerly known as Riverside Hotel Robertson Quay, The Robertson House now offers 5-star stays near the Singapore River at affordable rates. Rooms now feature decor inspired by the area’s British Colonial days, with monochrome-themed fittings in their bathrooms.
Rooms feature black and white murals of Clarke Quay back in the day.

We did say that prices for stays here won’t set you back quite as much, and at $200/night, we think it’s a bargain.
And while Robertson Quay is home to plenty of dining and drinking options you don’t even have to leave the hotel as it’s home to Chandu, a hidden speakeasy, and Entrepôt, a restaurant serving up Anglo-Asian cuisine.
Image credit: The Standard
A famed boutique hotel brand from Los Angeles will touch down in Singapore in 2024. The Standard hotel brand is known for its stylish architecture that attracts even the likes of A-list celebrities Leonardo DiCaprio and Jennifer Lopez.
The building will feature 143 rooms and an infinity pool with a view of the city. The hotel is expected to have a touch of greenery on its sleek exterior to fit in with Singapore’s garden city image.
Expect The Standard to have insta-worthy amenities just like their Bangkok hotel.

Located at Orange Grove Road across from Shangri-La Singapore, The Standard will be a 5-minute drive from a myriad of things to do in Orchard.

Raffles Hotel Singapore is probably one of the first that comes to mind when you think of luxury hotels in Singapore. But soon, we’ll have another outpost surrounded by nature. Raffles Sentosa Resort & Spa is set to have its soft opening in 2024. Exuding serious Bali vibes, the resort will be a good substitute for vacations to our favourite faraway beach destinations.
Image credit: Plateau International
This will be the first villa-only resort in Singapore with 62 villas spread over 100,000 sqm, or 17 football fields. Only 1- to 4-bedroom villas will be available, each with its private pool, terrace, and daybed for the ultimate escape from reality. For some extra pampering, guests can also look forward to Raffles Butlers and Raffles Spa.

Located right next to Far East Plaza in the ever-popular Orchard district, the Grand Hyatt Singapore closed for a large-scale reno in September 2023. The hotel is set to open in phases in 2024 and 2025 – but when it finally does, you can look forward to new suites, rooms, and Le Pristine, a new restaurant by Michelin-starred chef-restaurateur Sergio Hernan.

Once it reopens, the former Terrace Wing will be relaunched as the Wellness Wing, with new physical spaces that prioritise health and wellness. Expect to see a 5-storey cascading garden and waterfall feature alongside indoor urban landscaping which brings nature in.

If spending just a day at Mandai Wildlife Reserve isn’t enough for you, you’ll soon be able to stay overnight once Mandai Rainforest Resort opens in the first half of 2025. The nature resort will consist of 338 rooms and occupy the space currently used for the Singapore Zoo’s back-of-house facilities.

The architects have placed a strong emphasis on sustainability for this project, with plans for solar panels and energy-saving air conditioning. The rooms here come in the form of 24 seed pod-shaped treehouses with treetop walkways that connect them to the rest of the resort.
The best part? The resort will be integrated with the 5 of Mandai Nature Reserve’s parks: Bird Paradise, Singapore Zoo, River Wonders, Night Safari, and Rainforest Wild.
So if you need a break from work and feel like treating the fam to a staycay, snazzy new hotels are definitely not in short supply these days. While everyone might be setting their sights on overseas travel, sometimes the best spots to put your feet up and take a breather are right here with these new hotels in Singapore.
