Independent Report
generalAs part of its master plan for the redevelopment of Chinatown, Singapore has recommended the construction of a number of boutique hotels; the Royal Peacock is not meant to function like a typical hotel.
sg 03/09
lobbyThe small lobby is simply style in black; the single reception counter has a gold backdrop. Seating area are limited to 1 gold colour sofa and 2 Rosewood chair. Apart from the colour scheme, it has the typical one unit of the shop yesteryear with timber ceiling, shutters and louvered doors. Rooms are accessed through the door on the right side of the lobby and the left door will lead the guest to the lounge area and the restaurant.
exteriorThe hotel occupies a row of ten beautifully restored shop-houses (the business was conducted downstairs and the family resided upstairs). To preserve its authentic ambience, each shop-house has been artistically restored to its original condition, from the architecture and design to the timber ceilings.
restaurantThe renovated Aunty Tong's cafe sits on one end of the hotel, has dark rosewood square table with colour chair pad, and serves local and western dishes from 7am to 12 midnight.
roomsDeluxe rooms, 17-30 sqm in size, are embraced by the warm golden walls that shimmer with accents of claret and metallic gold, highlighted by curtains of saris in vibrant colors of red, gold and orange that exudes an inviting feel. All rooms equipped with complimentary coffee and tea amenities and wireless broadband connection.
locationLocated in the quaint Chinatown district of Keong Siak and surrounded by coffee shops and building that date back to pre-World War II. The area bustles with local nightlife and is walking distance to heart of Chinatown, which is a tourist attraction in itself.
