Accor has expanded its midscale hotel presence in Singapore with the opening of Novotel Singapore Robertson Quay, a 336-room property located beside the Singapore River. The new hotel at 1 Unity Street brings the Novotel brand into one of Singapore’s established riverside districts, with accommodation, dining, meetings and events facilities designed to serve both business and leisure demand.
The opening strengthens Accor’s midscale presence in Singapore while adding a property positioned within reach of several commercial, cultural and convention destinations. Novotel Singapore Robertson Quay is located near Singapore’s Central Business District, Clarke Quay, Fort Canning Park, Orchard Road and Suntec Singapore Convention and Exhibition Centre, connecting the hotel with areas relevant to corporate travel, meetings and city-based stays.
The property forms part of Novotel’s Longevity Everyday vision, which is reflected across its guest spaces and facilities through provisions focused on sleep, dining, movement and connection. For the hotel’s operating proposition, these elements are incorporated into a contemporary property that combines accommodation with food and beverage, fitness, leisure and event facilities.
Accommodation comprises guestrooms and suites ranging from 24 to 48 square metres, with city, river and panoramic views available across different room categories. Executive Rooms provide access to the Executive Lounge, while Executive Suites include separate living areas, bathtubs and kitchenettes. Guestroom amenities also include espresso machines and filtered water dispensers, reducing reliance on single-use plastic water bottles within the hotel’s accommodation offering.
The hotel’s positioning in Robertson Quay also informs its interior design. The guestrooms and public spaces combine contemporary design with references to the neighbourhood’s colonial history, while the surrounding district provides access to riverside dining, heritage architecture, cultural attractions and walking routes along the Singapore River.
Food and beverage facilities add another component to the property’s operating mix. Serai Dining operates as an all-day restaurant, beginning with breakfast and live cooking stations before moving into a dining experience centred on Singaporean and Peranakan flavours. Its menu incorporates local culinary heritage through familiar dishes and preparations built around traditional rempah spice pastes.
Pomelo Pool Bar provides a second food and beverage outlet beside the outdoor swimming pool. The venue serves citrus-inspired drinks alongside poolside dishes throughout the day, creating an additional setting within the property for casual dining and refreshments.
For corporate events and meetings, Novotel Singapore Robertson Quay provides four flexible meeting rooms equipped with natural light and contemporary audiovisual facilities. Robertson 4 is the largest of the meeting rooms, covering 101 square metres with capacity for up to 66 guests. The property also includes an outdoor event area of approximately 180 square metres beside Pomelo Pool Bar, providing space for coffee breaks, receptions and informal networking.
The combination of indoor meeting rooms and outdoor event space gives the property multiple formats for meetings and gatherings within the hotel. Its proximity to the Central Business District and Suntec Singapore Convention and Exhibition Centre further places the property within Singapore’s wider business and events environment.
Beyond accommodation and meetings, the hotel includes facilities intended to support longer daily routines for guests. A 24-hour fitness centre features dedicated spaces for yoga and mindfulness, while the 25-metre outdoor swimming pool provides an additional leisure facility. A Reading Room offers a quieter space within the property, while curated neighbourhood recommendations direct guests toward nearby destinations including the Singapore River, Fort Canning Park and cultural attractions.
The opening also represents an expansion of Accor’s Novotel portfolio within Singapore. Garth Simmons, Chief Operating Officer, Premium, Midscale and Economy Division for Accor in Asia, said the opening strengthens Accor’s midscale presence in the market while introducing a new Novotel experience in Robertson Quay.
For the property’s operations, acting General Manager Liza Tan said the hotel team had created a riverside environment designed around guests recharging, connecting and exploring Singapore, with the property serving business travellers alongside family and weekend stays.
Novotel Singapore Robertson Quay therefore enters the Singapore market with a 336-room accommodation base supported by multiple food and beverage concepts, four meeting rooms, an outdoor event area and fitness and leisure facilities. Its location places the property within reach of key commercial and convention destinations while its facilities extend the offering beyond rooms to meetings, dining and other hotel-based activities.
