InterContinental Singapore, located in the cultural district of Bugis, has launched its brand new guest rooms after a multi-million dollar renovation project by award-winning interior design firm FBEYE International, showcasing the city’s rich heritage and offering contemporary comforts for business travellers.

The refreshed heritage-inspired design is spread across all 338 guest rooms in the main tower, with plush beddings and custom furnishings. The light-filled interior displays a harmonious blend of textures and colours, with silk-threaded wall coverings and gold trimmings on the ceiling. Thanks to a comprehensive suite of modern amenities and innovative features, such as warm ambient lighting, the new guest rooms showcase practicality and modernity with a sense of place.

The comprehensive renovation project also includes the hotel’s European dining restaurant and lobby lounge. Owing to the clever use of lighting, Ash & Elm transforms from a chic breakfast buffet to a stylish dining destination by night. The thoughtful use of natural materials, such as the butcher-block worktops, exotic marble, mosaic tiles as well as the timber walls, introduce an organic feel to the space.

The Lobby Lounge is an elegant space that radiates an ambience of old-world charm. Lofty white-washed colonial pillars stand juxtaposed with customised period-pieces of furniture, offset with injections of contemporary elements, such as upholstered lounge chairs in stylish hue of duck egg blue and a rich palette of rusts and greens on the carpet. The relaxing lounge also offers the exclusive InterContinental Singapore Heritage Tea, making it an ideal venue for a business meet-up. www.intercontinental.singaporehoteltour.net
