What to expect from the newly reopened Conrad Singapore Orchard
After months of extensive refurbishments, Conrad Singapore Orchard will finally open in full for guest stays starting 28 December 2023.
Conrad is officially opening its second property in Singapore after Conrad Centennial Singapore. Formerly Regent Singapore, the address at 1 Cuscaden Road is now taken over by Conrad Singapore Orchard.
Located in the prestigious Orchard Road district, the rooms in the Hilton-owned hotel have been closed for renovations since the rebranding announcement in October 2022.
On the other hand, the hotel’s 10 F&B offerings, including notable names like the Michelin-starred Chinese restaurant Summer Palace, Italian restaurant Basilico and Manhattan Bar, continued to operate from January 2023 after light refurbishments. Other facilities like meeting spaces were also made available to guests.
Currently, Summer Palace is temporarily closed for renovations and is slated to “reopen in time for the New Year Celebrations” in Q1 2024.
