The Singapore Edition, the first in the city-state and Southeast Asia soft opened on Nov 9. The hotel will be managed by Marriott, the largest hotel chain in the world, with a portfolio of 31 brands. Edition, its luxury lifestyle brand, was conceived in partnership with American hotelier and real estate mogul Ian Schrager.
The 204-room hotel spans across six floors. The 154-unit luxury residences Boulevard 88 soars 28 storeys above the hotel block. The architect for the project is Moshe Safdie of Safdie Architects and Singapore-based DP Architects. Safdie is also the architect for two other local landmarks: Marina Bay Sands and Jewel Changi Airport.
Schrager masterminded the interiors of the Singapore Edition hotel in collaboration with Hong Kong-based interior design firm Cap Atelier. The Singapore Edition is a redevelopment of the former Boulevard Hotel by a consortium comprising Singapore tycoon Kwek Leng Beng’s Hong Leong Holdings, Singapore-listed property group City Developments (CDL) and Schrager’s Lea Investments.
