SINGAPORE—W Hotels Worldwide announced the opening of the first W Hotel in Singapore with the debut of W Singapore – Sentosa Cove and The Residences at W Singapore – Sentosa Cove. Owned and developed by an affiliate of City Developments Limited, the hotel is designed by London-based architects WATG and design firm Rockwell Group. Adjacent to the 228 W-branded residences, the hotel features 240 guestrooms and suites, two signature restaurants, a destination bar, the W Lounge experience, WET pool deck and bar, Away Spa, and more than 1,500 meters of modern meeting and event space.
“Singapore is a dynamic city and global hub for the world’s jetsetters,” said Vincent Gillet, global brand leader, W Hotels Worldwide and Le Méridien, in an announcement. “W Singapore will bring a new hotel experience to Sentosa through cutting-edge design, buzzing nightlife and restaurants, and innovative happenings that showcase what’s new and next for both locals and guests alike.”
The opening of W Singapore – Sentosa Cove marks the W brand’s 43rd hotel worldwide, and the seventh W Hotel in Asia Pacific.
The design of W Singapore has been inspired by modern interpretations of Sentosa’s landscape. For instance, upon arrival, guests are welcomed by a waterfall with projections of graphic patterns on the water, while the outdoor terrace features glowing grass lights, rock-shaped daybeds, and an over-scaled rock garden. Patterns evoking Singapore’s national flower, the Vanda Miss Joaquim Orchid, can be found throughout W Singapore. In the hotel’s W Lounge, a DJ console carved out of natural stone creates a centerpiece.
W Singapore features an Away Spa, the W brand’s signature spa concept. Guests of the spa are greeted by rainforest-inspired decor and natural sculptural pieces. Away at W Singapore offers nine Away guestrooms and suites, located on the spa level of the hotel and each featuring a private plunge pool. The hotel also features GYM fitness center and WET pool deck, featuring a 1,300 square meter outdoor pool with 24 underwater speakers.
All guestrooms and suites at W Singapore feature a signature W Bed, Munchie Box stocked with exclusive amenities, 40” LED HD TV, surround sound system, high-speed Wi-Fi, and MP3 player plug-and-play device.
W Singapore features more than 1,500 square meters of meeting and event space, including an 732-square-meter Great Room, seven meeting rooms, and an outdoor space outfitted with adaptable conference furniture and audio/visual equipment.
