There’s nothing quite like escaping to a tropical resort to recharge – but who says you need to hop on a plane to Bali or Thailand? Sometimes, the perfect retreat is much closer than you think.
Nestled in the heart of Tanjong Pagar’s bustling streets, Oasia Hotel Downtown, Singapore by Far East Hospitality is a verdant hidden getaway where you can unwind and rejuvenate without the hassle of packing your passport.
There’s no missing the stunning skyscraper, featuring 30-metre-tall sky terraces made from burnished red aluminium mesh and elegant architectural details, designed by renowned architecture firm WOHA.
The vertical garden – which the designers intended as a homage to Singapore’s iconic green landscape – is a mosaic of 21 species of creepers and plants, creating a charming biophilic environment that feels like a tropical escape within the city. Step inside, and you’ll find sleek interiors by acclaimed designer Patricia Urquiola, where earthy tones, playful pops and colour, and natural materials like wood and copper create a sanctuary that feels both serene and welcoming.
The striking facade of Oasia Hotel Downtown rises like a lush vertical escape amidst the urban buzz – setting the stage for a refreshing retreat.
WELLNESS IN EVERY DETAIL
The experience here is rooted in three pillars: Refresh, Refuel and Recharge. It begins the moment you step into the hotel’s open-air lobby on Level 12, where cool breezes and expansive greenery to curb the heat greet you at check-in, providing an immediate sense of calm.
Airy cabanas, lounge chairs and cosy meeting spaces invite you to slow down and soak in the tranquility, as you set your own pace for the day.
If you prefer to stay in, Urquiola’s brilliant use of earthy tones, woods and subtle hints of copper are easy on the eyes and mind. Trendsetters and design savants will also appreciate her playful hints of colour and striking shapes, which set Oasia Hotel Downtown apart from other minimalist-designed establishments. The hotel’s plush king-sized beds and towering rain shower are delightful treats that call your name at the end of every day.
Thoughtfully designed Club Rooms blend modern elegance with tranquil comfort for unwinding.
In need of nourishment? Oasia Hotel Downtown may be strategically located amongst a smattering of chic restaurants and cafes, but the easiest way to refuel is at The Marmalade Pantry on Level 1. A full breakfast is served here, alongside an all-day dining menu developed around freshness and purposeful ingredient choices.
For those looking to recharge, the options are endless. Start your morning with yoga or meditation on the Sky Terrace on Level 12, or hit the 24-hour gym to keep up with your daily fitness routine. Alternatively, make time to dive into the cool waters of the two rooftop pools on Level 27, which offer breathtaking city views, flanked by cobalt-blue lounge chairs. Guests staying in Club Rooms and Suites enjoy exclusive access to a serene infinity pool on Level 21 – a perfect spot for a moment of quiet reflection.
