"A bold, art-infused boutique in the Duxton Hill neighborhood where contemporary gallery-style interiors showcase works like a towering copper KAWS sculpture and Dawn Ng’s time-lapse video. Intimate guest rooms open with floor-to-ceiling windows, while Shophouse Suites offer soaring ceilings and entertaining bars; public highlights include a rooftop T-shaped infinity pool with pink-striped cabanas, the Jungle Ballroom’s inventive Southeast Asian cocktails, and Bottega di Carna by Dario Cecchini for prime cuts. Thoughtful sustainability touches—refillable amenities, recyclable-water cartons, and a closed-loop spirits system—underscore the design-forward experience." - Charlene Fang
"A playful, locally rooted hotel that spotlights Singapore’s creative community rather than colonial tropes, staffed by a diverse team (former Olympians, DJs, part‑time drag performers) and serving as a social hub where locals and visitors mingle at Christina’s café/cocktail bar and destination restaurants like Bottega di Carna by celebrity butcher Dario Cecchini. Guest accommodation includes 302 rooms some featuring augmented‑reality art and arched windows inspired by traditional shophouses." - Jennifer Flowers
"This Duxton Hill opening is the first Mondrian (currently found in the likes of East London, Los Angeles and Doha) in Asia. As you might expect it's a high-rise–but architects have cleverly drawn inspiration from the area's Chinese shophouses and art scene to become more rooted and artsy than you might first imagine. Rooms are flecked with locally commissioned art, there's a rooftop bar and pool–plus a handful of other restaurants, from a steakhouse to a laidback diner."
"Hollywood and Singapore might not be obvious sister cities, but the Mondrian Singapore Duxton’s Art Deco–inspired exterior might look equally at home on Sunset Boulevard. Inside, however, designers Studio Carter have paid plentiful tribute to heritage Singaporean architectural styles, most obviously in the Shophouse Suites, an adaptation of the distinctive local form. The accommodations are stylish and more than a little bit luxurious, while the hotel’s social life is given equal emphasis, if not more — Bottega di Carna is the work of the Italian restaurateur and butcher Dario Cecchini, while the Jungle Ballroom and the rooftop Canyon Club are the hotel’s glamorous nightspots." - Tablet Hotels
"A newly opened luxury boutique hotel that has raised the area’s profile, offering stylish accommodation and in-house dining and drinking options that contribute to a cooler, more cosmopolitan neighbourhood atmosphere." - Gwen Pew
