Fort Canning Park’s heritage as an exclusive and historical landmark is being revived with the opening of a fashionable boutique hotel, Hotel Fort Canning (Hfc) in October 2010.
Nestled between Orchard Road, the Clarke Quay entertainment hub and Central Business District, Hotel Fort Canning features a collection of 86 stylised rooms and suites. It has been designed to offer guests premium services and facilities in a one-of-a-kind location.
Hfc promises to be one of the most prestigious addresses in Singapore providing a highly desired respite from the ‘hustle and bustle’ of city living.
Once used as a base for the British Far East Command during World War II, the property, which has been sensitively restored by award-winning Singapore architectural company, DP Architects, maintains a sense of the old style colonial glamour with many original features including a multi-columned facade.
Each guest in residence at the hotel will enjoy ‘around-the-clock’ concierge services, be it booking tickets to a local concert, sourcing flights or arranging city guides and translation services. Equipped with the latest iPads, savvy staff can be contacted around the clock, by SMS, email or telephone.
Both rooms and suites are complemented by a selection of award-winning furniture from Poltrona Frau amongst others. The bathroom features eco-friendly amenities from award-winning THANN Spa.
