generalLocated in the lively Chinatown area and close to the historical Singapore River. sg 03/09
lobbyThe interior of the hotel unlike the exterior is well unkempt well appointed finishing. The reception area is finished in marble with light wood. Carpets are in blue with a generous seating/waiting area. The Heritage Bar in the rear offers a little pit stop before coming or going.
exteriorTypical of a building the 80s, the 24 storey building is tiled in tan color with a distinctive series of invert U shape roof line like the open palm of the hand with the fingers in profile. This is in keeping with the Chinese belief of geomancy (Feng Shui), whereby the open hand is a symbol to ward away evil.
