The Fullerton Bay Hotel - Singapore

Last July 8, the Fullerton Bay Hotel Singapore finally opened its doors. The new hotel is part of an ambitious project reshaping the Marina Bay area of Singapore - the Fullerton Heritage, a dining and hospitality complex consisting of the venerable Fullerton Hotel Singapore, The Fullerton Waterboat House, One Fullerton, Clifford Pier, and the upcoming Customs House.

Guests enter the Fullerton Bay Hotel through a 56-foot wide lobby at the historic Clifford Pier, one of Singapore's key heritage sites - a landing area for many of Singapore's early settlers.
The newly opened six-storey The Fullerton Bay Hotel in Singapore is one of the most beautiful hotels I have visited around the nearby region. Prominently positioned in the heart of Singapore’s Central Business District and the arts and cultural precinct, The Fullerton Bay Hotel Singapore was officially opened on the 8th July 2010.


The luxury design hotel which caters to well-heeled travelers and jet-setters is the latest addition to the sparkling Marina Bay. Sitting on the prime waterfront location, the hotel offers breathtaking architecture alongside the stunning views of the Marina Bay and the Singapore skyline.


While I was in Singapore recently, I had the privilege to tour the hotel and its surroundings. The entrance to The Fullerton Bay Hotel is through the arrival lobby at the historic Clifford Pier, an important heritage. Two female door attendants dressed in smart white uniform, provided soft greeting while opening the doors. This is great hospitality and indeed a great change.
Walked pass the arrival lobby of Clifford Pier, which eventually leads to the Landing Point. This elegant indoor promenade paved in bespoke marble mosaics is The Fullerton Bay Hotel’s lounge du jour. It is designed by Asia’s highly sought-after design wunderkind Andre Fu. Further down the Landing Point is the reception lobby of the hotel.
The hotel has 100 guestrooms, five individually-themed suites and a luxurious Presidential Suite, all individually themed to reflect the wealth of cultures in Singapore’s cosmopolitan population, including Chinese, Malay, Indian, Peranakan and Colonial. All the rooms are created by LCL Architects, the Hong Kong-based designers. We toured several beautifully decorated rooms in a variety of layouts.
The suites are located on the upper three storey’s of the hotel. We hop into the The Cavenagh Suite. With its tagline “Dive Into Pleasure”, this suite with elegant ambience is laden with luxurious decorations of paintings, crystal and fine porcelain. The suite is decorated with soothing colors of gold and cream.
