Standard Signs 143-Room Hotel in Singapore

Standard Hotels & Resorts has signed a deal with Invictus Developments, a real estate investment company owned by the family of Indonesian businessman Bachtiar Karim, to open a hotel in Singapore.

Scheduled to welcome the first guests in 2023, The Standard, Singapore will be the brand's third hotel in Southeast Asia following The Standard, Hua Hin which is slated to open in November 2021, and The Standard, Bangkok Mahanakhon which will open in 2022.

“Singapore has emerged into an incredibly important and innovative hub in Asia and we couldn’t be more excited about this development,” said Standard International Chief Executive Officer, Amar Lalvani. “New hotel licenses in the city are rare and highly coveted and we feel very fortunate to partner with Invictus Developments to bring this project to life. Although the global travel dynamics remain challenging at the moment, we continue to build landmark projects around the world in anticipation of a brighter future.”

Located on Orange Grove Road, across from the Shangri-La, Singapore, The Standard, Singapore will feature 143 rooms, a choice of F&B options, as well as an infinity-edge pool and pool bar set within a lush botanical courtyard.

“We are delighted to bring The Standard into Singapore. They are known for pushing boundaries and challenging norms which reflect our values. Their unconventional and offbeat approach will bring a differentiated experience to the current offerings in the vicinity,” said Chayadi Karim, principal of Invictus Developments. With this new hotel in Singapore, and its forthcoming hotels in Bangkok, Hua Hin and Melbourne, The Standard is set to make a profound mark in the region.”

More details of the interior design and facilities are expected to be revealed in the coming weeks.
