1. The St. Regis Singapore


The St. Regis Singapore, a long-standing luxury landmark along Tanglin Road since 2008, has undergone a timely refresh to keep pace with the wave of new hotels opening in Orchard. While it now boasts redesigned rooms, updated F&B venues, and refreshed ballrooms, the hotel retains its defining old New York and European design influences, setting it apart from the average city hotel in the shopping district. The revamped rooms trade a once red-and-gold colour scheme for muted shades of blue and turquoise, combining old world regality with a touch of modern sophistication. Subtle floral motifs nod to its proximity to the Botanic Gardens, weaving the locale into the design.
Guests can unwind at the new Tea Room, where afternoon tea comes with free-flowing scones, tea, and live harp music, or indulge at The Astor Grill, a steak and seafood restaurant reimagined with botanical-inspired touches and a glasshouse-like feel. The Astor Bar is also set to reveal its own transformation, offering another elegant space for guests. Blending tradition with modernity, the St. Regis continues to deliver timeless charm alongside refreshed luxury.
Time Out tip: Breakfast is well worth waking up for – if only for the glorious truffle flan and the Avruga caviar-topped Boston lobster omelette.
