Get lost in the allure of InterContinental® Singapore, where modern luxuries spoil you silly. Plus, they have a special offer for you! By Bayar Jain
A five-star hotel set in the heart of a historic precinct, InterContinental® Singapore ticks all the right boxes for a luxurious stay immersed in arts and culture.
A Luxurious Welcome
Location
Rooted in Bugis and Bras Basah, the hotel is located at a close proximity to established historical enclaves, including Arab Street and Kampong Glam. The biggest advantage, however, is the easy connectivity to Singapore Changi Airport, which is located merely 20 minutes away. Hop on a Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) train and disembark at Bugis train station, which is situated just steps away. The Marina Bay and the Central Business District, too, are close-by. Replete with conveniences at the doorstep, the adjoining Bugis Junction shopping mall—which spans over 200 retail and dining outlets—offers a prelude to what the exciting destination has to offer.
Meet-and-greet services
An airport limousine serves as the ideal segue to a luxurious stay at InterContinental® Singapore. Guests staying in the Executive, Royal, Ambassador, and Presidential Suites are welcomed by a hotel ambassador at the airport, who assists guests with luggage and other airport procedures. The vehicle further steps up the luxury with thoughtful details. The car comes equipped with chilled water bottles, wet towels, and complimentary wireless connectivity and newspapers. Guests can also browse hotel information on a tablet while on-the-go, and even make dining arrangements with a personal chauffeur.
