The lobby features a marble curved staircase and a cone-shaped, gold installation that hangs from the ceiling above a sculpture by Rafael Barrios, entitled Turbulence. This is just one piece of the Conrad’s 3400 art collection.

Marina Bay Sands
This would have to be one of the most well-known hotels in the world with its Moshe Safdie-designed, ship-shaped SkyPark sitting high on the top of the three 55-storey hotel towers. Only hotel guests get to enjoy the best views from the amazing rooftop infinity pool (on the 57th floor), the largest of its kind, but visitors can catch the view after forking out $S20 to sip cocktails on the Observation Deck.
Built for a cool $S8 billion, it has a casino, more than 20 restaurants, a food court and a shopping mall if you’re looking for some retail therapy. The rooms and suites – and there are more than 2500 of them – have views of Marina Bay, the South China Sea or the Singapore skyline.
On entering, the 23 storey-high hotel atrium is impressive with check-in counters (near Tower 1) on one end and the Ce La Vi Skypark access counter (near Tower 3) on the other. Tower 1 contains the reception booth for the Italian restaurant LAVO and the rooftop bar in Sands SkyPark, and the Asian-inspired hotel bar and lounge Renku.
The casino spreads over three levels and the Shoppes has more than 270 retail stores. There is a fitness club and spa especially for guests. The range of dining options seems endless. As well as the food court in the basement, there are nine celebrity chef restaurants – Bread Street Kitchen by Gordon Ramsay, Bistro and Oyster Bar by Daniel Boulud, Long Chim by David Thompson, Osteria & Pizzeria Mozza by Nancy Silverton, Spago by Wolfgang Park, as well as the two-Michelin starred Waku Ghin by Tetsuya Wakuda and the one-Michelin starred CUT by Wolfgang Puck.
Guests enjoy expansive views of either Gardens by the Bay, the harbour or the city from their rooms, which have floor-to-ceiling windows and 42” interactive flat-screen TVs. If you’re travelling with family, it’s best to book a family room, which accommodates up to four. These rooms don’t have great views because they’re on the second and third floors but they have a king-size bed and two twins and are quite spacioius.
Getting around from here is easy with the Bayfront MRT station (on the Circle and Downtown lines) connecting the hotel, shopping precinct, the expo and convention centre and Gardens by the Bay. The historic riverside district is only two stops away (or a leisurely – and sight-filled – walk) from Raffles Place MRT and Orchard Rd is just four more stops after that or a 15-20-minute taxi or Grab ride.
