SE Asia’s First Park Regis to Open in Singapore

Australian based StayWell Hospitality Group (SWHG), one of Asia Pacific’s largest independently owned hotel management companies, has marked its entry into Southeast Asia with the launch of its flagship upscale Park Regis property in Singapore.

Set to officially open its doors to the public on 16 November 2010, the 203-room Park Regis Singapore marks a significant milestone in SWHG’s strategy to expand the brand in key destinations across the region. The group currently manages more than 10 Park Regis hotels primarily in Australia and has new properties under development in Dubai and Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, scheduled to open early next year.

“Park Regis hotels deliver a distinctive blend of old world English charm combined with modern Australian hospitality. We see enormous growth potential for this brand in Southeast Asia and are confident that the debut of our new hotel in Singapore will help pave the way for more properties to come in future,” said Simon Wan, CEO, SWHG.

Park Regis Singapore is located in the main banking and corporate district of Raffles Place, alongside the Singapore River with views of the bustling nightlife of Clarke Quay. The hotel has a range of features including a 25-metre outdoor lap pool, a spacious gymnasium as well as two meeting and conference rooms. The hotel also offers several dining options, including Suite 23, an all-day dining restaurant serving global cuisine in a contemporary setting; ‘Scape Lounge, a chic setting perfect for pre-dinner drinks, SiLuEt, an al fresco rooftop bar for chilling out in the evening and Splash! Pool Side Café, an ideal venue to unwind and relax by the pool.

Business travellers can enjoy a full suite of secretarial services at the hotel’s business centre. In addition, all rooms include Interactive TV (IPTV), Interactive Phone (IP) and Wi-Fi broadband internet access.

“Our focus at Park Regis Singapore is to enhance guest experiences so the hotel is positioned to deliver some of the highest levels of comfort and quality. Situated within walking distance from the business and entertainment districts, the hotel is the ideal location for corporate and leisure travellers coming to Singapore,” said Jason Dowd, General Manager, Park Regis Singapore.

The interior of Park Regis Singapore is designed by Australian firm Woodhead, which is behind some of the country’s key developments. These include the interior design of Changi International Airport terminals 1 and 3 as well as the Singapore National Library. Designed as a city resort, the hotel features tropical trees overhanging the pool deck which overlooks Clarke Quay giving guests the experience of staying in a friendly intimate resort located in the heart of the city.
