The opening of the new Ibis Styles Singapore on MacPherson enlivens the MacPherson district with 298 vibrantly decorated guest rooms and a distinctive façade which showcases the hotel’s elevated pool garden, evoking a tropical resort vibe to the design-led hotel.
Located at the crossroads of MacPherson and Aljunied road, the hotel is part of a mixed use development and sits atop Macpherson Mall, with rooms occupying levels 4 to 9. The mall is set to open in June 2016 with a myriad of shops and food and beverage options, offering guests an added measure of convenience and amenities.
The development is owned by LVND Investments Pte Ltd, a consortium comprising Lian Huat Group, Nobel Design Holdings, Expand Group and Steel Industries. It acquired the site in June 2013, and carried out extensive works to completely transform the building’s interiors and exterior, adding in more guest rooms, a 25m swimming pool and a fully-equipped gymnasium.
Mr. Patrick Kho, Group Managing Director of Lian Huat Group, says, “Ibis Styles Singapore on MacPherson is a landmark development for the area and is a much-anticipated boon to the business and residential community, who now have a modern and stylish place to accommodate their visiting colleagues.”
