Hotel Indigo Bangkok Wireless wowed us with its excellent concept of reflecting the history, culture and character of its neighborhood for its cool interiors. Now Singapore’s getting its very own Hotel Indigo, which will be opening in the Katong area along East Coast Road.
Hotel Indigo Singapore Katong took over one of Singapore’s heritage buildings—the Joo Chiat Police Station—which was built in 1938. The 131-room hotel features design elements inspired by the culture of the Straits-born Chinese Peranakans and keeps the vintage charm of the Katong district across its 30 sq. meter guest rooms. The spa-inspired bathrooms in each guest room is stocked with aromatherapeutic toiletries from Biology Smart Skincare.
But if you’re looking to stay active during your stay, you can work out at the 24-hour fitness center that’s decked out with Technogym equipment, or take a dip in the infinity pool which overlooks Katong’s cultural enclave.
The all-dining restaurant, Baba Chews Bar and Eatery, offers a range of both modern and traditional cuisine from the Straits of Malacca, Western favorites and local delights like the mouth-waterming ayam buah kelak (chicken brasied in a thick, spicy tamarind gravy with buah keluak nus) and foie gras tau kwa pau. If you’re in need of a caffeine fix, they also offer coffee made from roasted beans from local specialty roaster, Common Man Coffee Coasters, and tea from TWG.
