BACKGROUND Acquired by Pan Pacific Group, the hotel reopened on December 1, 2020 after a S$45 million (US$32.44 million) refurbishment. The hotel is one of four original John Portman hotels, built in 1987, and was until recently the Marina Mandarin. It is now part of the Parkroyal Collection brand which has a focus on sustainability.
WHERE IS IT? It's located in the Marina Bay area with access to the Marina Square Shopping Centre and links to the Suntec Convention Centre. The airport is 20 minutes by car; an MRT station is a few minutes' walk away. It is close to attractions, including Gardens by the Bay and the Singapore Flyer.
WHAT'S IT LIKE? It's eco-friendly, with no single-use plastics, solar panels on the roof and an eco-digester for food waste. Expect lots of greenery - there's a garden within the hotel, a 13m green wall and songbirds in the huge 21-storey atrium.
