Set amidst the dynamic, sophisticated neighbourhood of Robertson Quay along the Singapore River, known for its dining options and arts houses, InterContinental Hotel has officially opened, the result of a careful curation by world- class designers, architects and culinary purveyors.
The hotel presents a stylish but laid back, relaxed feel in the leafy, upscale neighbourhood, offering 225 luxurious studios and suites, including an expansive Penthouse, which has unparalleled views of both the Singapore River and vibrant city via floor-to-ceiling windows.
The residential-inspired property combines elements from Robertson Quay's industrial and intriguing past with sleek contemporary finishes using rich Italian marble, slate, brushed copper and bronzes.
The light- filled room interiors have been designed to magnify the familiar comforts of home.
On offer as well is the exclusive 24-hour Club InterContinental lounge, where club guests get to enjoy access to tailored and personalised services, including a dedicated team to personalise their stay, private in room or lounge check-in and impressive Club rooms.
Quayside Lounge, which is set amongst lush tropical surroundings on level four, offers sophisticated afternoon tea and curated evening cocktails.
Established as part of a holistic dining and lifestyle destination, the hotel boasts a wide range of restaurant and bar concepts.
Flagship restaurant Publico, representing the central core of Italian culture, is a multi- concept dining destination comprising a variety of Italian experiences under one roof – a neighbourhood deli and bar and a ristorante with adjoining terrazzo by the river.
Other highlights throughout the hotel include New York institution Wolfgang's Steakhouse by Wolfgang Zwiener, and a bar and dining concept from the team behind Izy Sushi.
Room rates at the hotel start from SGD285++ as part of an opening offer for stays between 12 October and 30 November 2017. For more information or reservations, go to intercontinental.com/robertson-quay
