The Ritz-Carlton, Millenia Singapore

"Geographically speaking, The Ritz-Carlton Millenia Singapore can’t be beaten in terms of sheer proximity to the races. It's just minutes away by foot from the F1 Pit Building and the nearby grandstands, making it ideal for fans lucky enough to have snagged tickets (and, if the hearsay is true, Formula One teams as well). The fact that the hotel manages to strike a fine balance between contemporary, luxurious and high-tech all at once doesn’t hurt either." - Alvin Lim

"How did it strike you on arrival?The lobby is vast, bright and palatial. There are shiny marble floors and opulent gold accents, but what the eye is drawn to is the dramatic vaulted glass ceiling. It’s like you’re in the Crystal Palace of the 1851 World’s Fair, only instead of the wares of 14,000 exhibitors, you have over 4,000 artworks to eyeball – one of the largest contemporary art collections in Southeast Asia. What’s the crowd like?Luxury lovers, honeymooners, business and brand-loyal travelers. The good stuff: Tell us about your room.My spacious Deluxe Marina room had polished wooden floors and was decorated in polite creams and beiges - nothing to distract from the main event: A fabulous view of the Marina Bay area. The Marina Bay Sands nightly light show was visible from the room. We’re craving some deep, restorative sleep. They got us?It was massive, with cool 300 thread count sheets and a feather topper that could be removed if you like your mattress firm. A treat for the body after a full day out. Please tell us the bathroom won’t let us down.Large, marble, and luxurious in an old-school kind of way. Very plush robes and lovely citrusy Asprey Purple Water products. The standout feature was a bathtub set against a huge hexagonal window, perfect for that Instagram pic. For $4,421 you can get the ultimate champagne experience in it - have the tub filled with Moet & Chandon bubbly, with a bottle of Dom Perignon on the side for you to drink. We all need some good Wi-Fi. What’s the word on that?Fast and free! Anything stand out about other services and features? Whether it’s childcare, gyms, spas, even parking—whatever stuck with you.Extensive gym with a dedicated yoga room and thoughtful touches like fruit and fruit-infused water. There's a pool with an overwater cover for events. The spa offers several signature experiences including one accompanied by a live cello performance. It's also the only La Mer partner spa in Asia-Pacific. What was most memorable—or heartbreaking—about your stay?Memorable: The consistently brilliant service and ending each day with a soak in that tub. Bottom line: worth it?If you're a fan of classic luxury it doesn't get better than this: Staff attending to your every whim, a plush room with the country's most iconic view and the convenience of being connected to one of Singapore's prime tourist areas (there's even a direct linkway to the Millenia Walk mall)." - Audrey Phoon

"The Ritz-Carlton Millenia Singapore presents a striking skyscraper masterpiece envisioned by Pritzker laureate Kevin Roche. Gracefully soaring above seven acres of lush Marina Centre gardens, this architectural gem defines the new business and commercial hub. This hotel ventures into uncharted territory, embodying modernist design elements harmonised by contemporary interiors featuring sleek timber accents and Tibetan-inspired woven rugs, replacing customary European antiques, which are a common sight in other Ritz-Carlton hotels. Traditional hotel art is replaced with captivating works by luminaries such as Frank Stella, David Hockney, and Andy Warhol. Apart from its luxurious rooms, the property generously provides comprehensive business and fitness facilities, and the service embodies the epitome of excellence, as expected from any Ritz-Carlton establishment." - Mikka Wee

The double-boiled sea whelk soup with fish maw, sauteed Dong Xing grouper fillet and braised abalone are just some of the specialities." - Michelin Inspector
