Hilton has unveiled plans to launch its largest hotel in Asia Pacific with the opening of the 1,080-room Hilton Singapore Orchard in January 2022.

Located in the heart of Singapore’s downtown Orchard Road, the hotel will represent Hilton’s flagship presence in the country following an extensive refurbishment. A conversion from the current Mandarin Orchard Singapore, Hilton Singapore Orchard is owned by OUE Commercial REIT and will be managed by Hilton.

With 1,080 refurbished rooms and suites spread across two towers, Hilton Singapore Orchard will be one of the largest hotels in Singapore providing access to a variety of room and suite categories and catering to different travel segments, from leisure to business travellers and corporates to large groups.

Amenities and services within the hotel will include two 24-hour fully-equipped fitness centres, an outdoor pool, a newly established Executive Lounge and a direct connection to a four-storey luxury shopping gallery with a host of local and international fashion brands and signature cafes and restaurants.

Set to become a dining destination on its own, Hilton Singapore Orchard will further elevate the city’s culinary scene with five curated dining concepts including the award-winning Chatterbox, two Michelin-starred Shisen Hanten and three new food and beverage offerings featuring an all-day dining venue, a specialty restaurant and a lobby lounge and bar.

With 16 extensively renovated and versatile event spaces spanning more than 2,400m2, the hotel will accommodate meetings and events ranging from conventions and exhibitions to weddings and social celebrations. Offering one of the largest event spaces in the city, Hilton Singapore Orchard will feature two uniquely designed and pillarless ballrooms fitted with state-of-the-art LED walls, lighting and sound technologies that can cater up to 1,000 guests and a dedicated pre-function area. For smaller meetings, planners can choose from 12 function rooms.

“As a hub and key city destination for business and leisure travellers, we are optimistic about the growth potential of Singapore’s hospitality scene as recovery begins and travel resumes over the long-term,” explains Paul Hutton, Vice President of Operations in South East Asia, Hilton. “We are delighted to start a new year with the launch of a significant addition to our regional portfolio through the opening of Hilton Singapore Orchard, which will represent a true landmark Hilton hotel in an important gateway city for South East Asia.”

Cedric Nubul, General Manager, Hilton Singapore Orchard said, “Hilton Singapore Orchard will be one of the most anticipated hotels to open in 2022 and an exciting addition to the vibrant scene in Orchard Road. With 1,080 well-appointed accommodation options, one of the largest event spaces in the area, five curated dining concepts and a central location right in the heart of Singapore’s retail and dining haven, the hotel is set to be a destination of choice for business and leisure travellers, as well as those residing here.”
