Review

The Ritz-Carlton brand doesn’t necessarily inspire visions of great works of art, but in the case of the Singapore branch, an incredible contemporary collection is what sets the hotel apart from the city’s numerous other luxury options. Many of the thousands of pieces, including sculpture, paintings and large-scale installations, were commissioned for the hotel. There are works that leave a big impression, such as Frank Stella’s oversized sculptures from his Moby Dick series, but there are also smaller gems by the likes of David Hockney, Andy Warhol and Rainer Gross. It’s truly a world-class collection and, if you have time, ask for the audio tour at reception.

The 608 guest rooms were completely overhauled in 2011, giving the property a sleek, contemporary feel. Interiors are spacious and airy, with a bright caramel-and-white color scheme, lots of mirrors and large windows – many of which have stunning views of the marina and beyond. The recent renovation also updated the in-room technology (LCD televisions, Bose sound systems, Nespresso machines). If you stay on the thirty-second-floor Club Level, snacks, drinks and meals are served throughout the day and the views are stunning. The sizeable pool on the ground floor is surrounded by lush gardens and vegetation, drowning out (almost entirely) the sound of the nearby traffic. And high tea in the Chihuly Lounge, presided over by the American glass artist’s Sunset) is a Singapore tradition.

Who Should Stay

Fans of the Ritz-Carlton brand and large properties – as well as art connoisseurs – will be happy here.
