Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide has announced it plans to open The Westin Singapore Marina Bay in 2013.
Occupying the 32nd to 46th floor of Asia Square Tower 2, the new Westin will feature the highest hotel lobby in the city state.
"We are delighted to re-introduce the Westin Brand to Singapore with the opening of this sophisticated and elegant urban retreat. The opening of The Westin Singapore Marina Bay underscores the importance of Singapore to the Westin brand and builds on our strong history in both urban and resort locations throughout Asia," explained Chuck Abbott, Regional Vice President for Southeast Asia at Starwood Hotels & Resorts.
The hotel boasts 305 rooms, a The Heavenly Spa by Westin and a 480m2 Banquet Hall. The Westin Singapore Marina Bay will also feature the WestinWORKOUT® gym, a business center with a large feature wall composed of sawdust elements captured in resin as well as an infinity pool on the 35th floor.
“It is our pleasure to welcome the iconic Westin brand into Asia Square's Tower 2, the first commercial development to house a five-star business hotel in Singapore. The hotel forms the corner stone that brings to life Asia Square's "Work, Play, Live, Grow" proposition. This partnership with Westin will complete Asia Square's strategy to create a highly supportive environment to give businesses that competitive edge,” said James Davis, Managing Director of MGPA.
