W wows Singapore
A W Welcome!
Wildly wonderful W
Wondrously W
I have been to a few W's and am convinced it stands for 'Wow', 'Wonderful', 'Wacky', 'Whew', 'Wicked' or even 'Weird' but in a nice, walao way!
W is maximalist which is my style as i hate minimalism which is just an excuse for a sad lack of creativity and imagination! One should never leave a wall empty and space devoid of ornamentation!
Never economise when you can extravagantise is my motto!
At RM 1,000 a night it cannot be compared with Tune hotels but each to his own!

SINGAPORE – W Hotels
Worldwide today announced the opening of the first W Hotel in Singapore with the debut of W Singapore -
Sentosa Cove and The Residences at W Singapore – Sentosa Cove. Owned and developed by an
affiliate of City Developments Limited, W Singapore is an urban oasis located on Sentosa, the
city’s most glamorous island only minutes away from downtown Singapore.
Designed by London-based architects WATG and renowned design firm Rockwell
Group, W Singapore has been inspired by the buzzing energy of the city set
against Sentosa’s natural surroundings to create a new scene in this
international capital. Adjacent to the 228 W-branded residences, the hotel
offers a fully integrated lifestyle experience, featuring 240 guest rooms and
suites, two signature restaurants, a destination bar, the W Lounge experience,
WET pool deck and bar, Away Spa, and more than 1,500 meters of modern meeting
and event space.
“The opening of W Singapore – Sentosa Cove heralds a
new era of hospitality for our country,” said Mr. Kwek Leng Beng, Executive
Chairman of City Developments Limited. “Together with Quayside Isle, W Singapore
will add to the vibrancy of Sentosa Cove by providing residents and visitors
with a marina lifestyle haven unlike ever before.”
“Singapore
is a dynamic city and global hub for the world’s jetsetters,” said Vincent
Gillet, Global Brand Leader, W Hotels Worldwide and Le Méridien. “W Singapore
will bring a new hotel experience to Sentosa through cutting-edge design,
buzzing nightlife and restaurants, and innovative happenings that showcase
what’s new and next for both locals and guests alike.”
The
opening of W Singapore – Sentosa Cove marks the W brand’s 43rd hotel
worldwide, and the seventh W Hotel in Asia Pacific. Starwood’s continued
momentum across Asia Pacific reflects the strength of its nine leading brands
and the deep relationships the company has fostered with developers, partners,
and guests in the region over the last 27 years.
“We are
thrilled to announce the opening of W Singapore – Sentosa Cove today,” said
Stephen Ho, President, Asia Pacific, Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc.
“The arrival of a design-led hotel brand like W Hotels to Singapore comes at
the right time as Singapore has emerged as Southeast Asia’s lifestyle and
creative hub. Without a doubt, the hotel’s iconic design infused with the W
brand’s passion for what’s new and next will offer Singapore the ultimate
lifestyle destination.”
Island
Glamour Unleashed on Sentosa Island
Located
minutes away from Singapore’s Central Business District, fashionable shopping
and iconic sights, Sentosa Island is a modern playground for stylish locals and
international jetsetters alike, offering lush rainforests, sandy beaches,
award-winning spas, luxurious residences, and a deep-water yachting marina. W
Singapore and The Residences at W Singapore – Sentosa Cove are situated in the
heart of Sentosa and adjacent to Quayside Isle, a unique specialty retail
complex with waterfront restaurants and shops.
The
design of W Singapore has been inspired by modern interpretations of Sentosa’s
lush, tropical landscape. For instance, upon arrival, guests are welcomed by a
waterfall with projections of vibrant graphic patterns on the water, while the
outdoor terrace features glowing grass lights, rock-shaped daybeds, and an
over-scaled rock garden. Patterns evoking Singapore’s national flower, the
Vanda Miss Joaquim Orchid, can be found throughout W Singapore and serving as
inspiration for guestrooms. In the hotel’s W Lounge, a DJ console carved
out of natural stone creates a centerpiece, overlooking the lawn, which
illuminates in the evening.
Sip
and Mix, Indulge and Escape in Singapore’s New Urban Oasis
Setting
a new gourmet scene in Singapore, SKIRT, the W brand’s first contemporary grill
restaurant, makes its debut with a slick bar for sipping the latest cocktails
and aging cabinets serving the finest meats, sensational seafood, signature
soups and tantalizing desserts. The Kitchen Table all-day dining restaurant
features an interactive experience with various live food stations and tastings
at the whim of the chef. WOOBAR, W Singapore’s destination nightclub, offers
innovative cocktails creations by the W mixologist and sounds by the hotel’s
resident DJ at nightfall. For a chill out moment, WET Bar is a poolside spot to
socialize, sip and nibble under Singapore’s glistening sun.
W
Singapore features an Away® Spa, the W brand’s signature spa concept
that offers an escape for both guests and locals to detox and refuel for what’s
to come. Guests of the spa are greeted by rainforest-inspired decor and natural
sculptural pieces that personify the exotic gardens of Singapore. Away at W
Singapore exclusively features iLA products and highly-customized beds that
offer maximum comfort. For guests seeking the ultimate spa experience, W
Singapore offers nine Away guest rooms and suites, located on the spa level of
the hotel and each featuring a private plunge pool. The hotel also
features GYM state-of-the art fitness center and WET pool deck, featuring a
1,300 square meter outdoor pool with 24 underwater speakers.

sound system, high-speed Wi-Fi, and MP3 player plug-and-play device. All
