Until recently, tourists had to journey for miles or take a cable car to catch a glimpse of Mount Faber, but with the launch of Accor’s first Handwritten Collection hotel in Singapore, guests can now immerse themselves in the beauty and history of Singapore’s second-highest hill and premier attraction, all from the comfort of their hotel room.

Not only is Hotel Faber Park Singapore – Handwritten Collection nestled by the iconic hill, it also tells the story of Captain Charles Edward Faber of Madras Engineers, who built a narrow winding road to the summit for the installation of a signal station.

The design and layout of the rooms and amenities such as the restaurant were also inspired by the foothills of Mount Faber Park, giving guests a piece of Singapore’s history.

Highlighting passion Andrew Langdon, Chief Development Officer of Accor Asia, said hotels under the Handwritten Collection brand each follow a unique theme and story, which is often linked to the owner of the hotel.
