The St. Regis Singapore offers guests unparalleled service, luxury and the refined traditions of the legendary hotel brand, right in the heart of downtown Singapore.
Since the opening of the first St. Regis Hotel in New York City over a century ago, the prestigious St. Regis — the premium hotel brand of Starwood Hotels & Resorts — has been synonymous worldwide with refinement and timeless elegance, offering an uncompromising level of bespoke and peerless service to discerning guests.
When staying at The St. Regis Singapore, the exclusive tone is set even before check-in at this multi-award-winning five-star-plus hotel.
The St. Regis Singapore views each guest as an esteemed VIP who deserves the ultimate in memorable luxurious experiences. So, arriving at Singapore’s Changi Airport,
I am quickly transported away in one of the hotel’s fleet of customized Bentley cars, exclusively set aside for chauffeuring guests in the height of style.
Like the others, this St. Regis Continental Flying Spur Bentley has been meticulously personalized to reflect The St. Regis standards — even sporting the trademark corporate colours. Inspired by the 1957 four-door Continental Flying Spur, interiors are a classic mix of leather hides and wood veneers, while bespoke comforts include chilled drinks and towels from the rear cabin’s wine cooler, deep pile carpets and an entertainment suite. Our Bentley sweeps into the grand entrance of The St. Regis Singapore, located in Singapore’s leafy diplomatic quarter and within walking distance to Orchard Road. Ushered into the stunning lobby, it is immediately apparent that The St. Regis Singapore is a residential abode of refined sophistication, inspired by heritage and tradition and oozing old-school classical elegance. The lobby-lounge presents several elements that are distinctive St. Regis trademarks familiar elsewhere in the hotel (and in other hotels worldwide): hand-cut crystal chandeliers, centre-piece floral arrangements, hand-picked art pieces and a sweeping staircase.
My white-gloved, personal butler escorts me to my room for a private check-in, my first encounter with the legendary St. Regis Butler Service — part of the impeccable staff service. As an unparalleled symbol of uncompromising and consistent luxury, The St. Regis is the only hotel in Singapore providing full butler service to every guest, whatever room category, believing everyone equally deserves the same high standards. The ever on call, yet unobtrusive butlers provide flawless personalised attention, from the unpacking of luggage to the delivering of freshly brewed coffee, besides anticipating guests’ unique preferences prior to arrival (my butler had prepared a complementary afternoon tea, anticipating that I would be hungry after my flight). The St. Regis’ understated elegance permeates throughout the 299 luxuriously appointed guestrooms and suites.
All are generously proportioned and exquisitely furnished, evoking a sense of opulent modern sophistication, revealing spacious French marble bathrooms with stand-alone bathtubs, crystal chandeliers, customized furniture and soft plush furnishings, besides ultra-modern amenities. The St. Regis’ Suite Society offers guests a sumptuous suite collection that includes the highest in every sense: the magnificent Presidential Suite, resplendent on Level 20, providing a grand living room, dining hall, personal gym and executive office. An extensive balcony provides panoramic views over the Botanical Gardens.
BEYOND EXCEPTIONAL
The St. Regis Singapore boasts some exceptional stand-out features, including one of Southeast Asia’s finest and largest private art collections — offering exclusive access to museum-quality art in opulent residential surrounds. The collection showcases more than 70 original works of art, including sculptures, paintings and prints, hand-picked — and many specially commissioned — to complement the elegance of the hotel’s graceful interiors and fine settings.
Representing both Western and Eastern influences, world-renowned artists include Chen Wen Hsi, Georgette Chen, Fernando Botero and Pablo Picasso. Art pieces adorn not only public spaces, including restaurants and the poolside, but also many of the luxurious accommodations for an enhanced guest experience. Guests can enjoy a complimentary curated 30-minute “The Art of Living” tour of some of these art works, exclusively conducted each evening by The St. Regis butlers. Multiple award-winning Remède Spa is The St. Regis’ first premium branded Remède Spa outside of the US; its unique theme of interactive water elements features a sensorial lounge with aquarium, an outdoor tropical spa garden with a Jacuzzi pool and eucalyptus-scented steam chambers.
Customized revitalizing experiences include world-renowned pedicure treatments by French podiatrist Bastien Gonzalez. Among The St. Regis Singapore dining establishments, the signature Brasserie Les Saveurs offers modern interpretations of classic French gastronomy set in sumptuous European elegance. Whether for epicurean lunches, romantic dinners, The Grand Astor Afternoon Tea, or The St. Regis Sunday Champagne Brunch, dine amongst gorgeous Art Deco glass ceilings, chandeliers, silver service and alcove tables discreetly draped with velvet curtains — the most refined spot for breakfast.
Elsewhere, head to the acclaimed Yan Ting, one of Singapore’s premier Chinese restaurants, or the Astor Bar, named after The St. Regis’ American founder John Jacob Astor IV. Unwind here over live jazz with a Chili Padi Mary, a modern, Southeast Asian adaptation of the original St. Regis signature cocktail, the Bloody Mary. As you would expect from The St. Regis Singapore, even here elegance abounds, with Picasso’s Toros Series of 10 lithographs lining the bar walls.
