Hotel operator Pan Pacific Hotels Group is set to open Parkroyal on Pickering, a hotel and spa in Singapore, based on a hotel-in-a-garden concept, at the end of 2012.
The hotel is located at the gateway to Singapore's Central Business District and landmarks such as Chinatown and China Square Central.
Designed by Singapore-based architectural firm WOHA, Parkroyal was built with a strong focus on integrating environmental elements throughout the property.
The 16-storey resort features five landscaped gardens and 15,000sq m (161,458sq ft) of greenery comprising shade trees, tall palm flowering plants, leafy shrubs and overhanging creepers, bringing greenery directly to the rooms.
St Gregory's all-day spa will offer signature treatments such as the Well Being Massage, Traditional Thai Massage and Herbal Compress.
Other facilities include a dedicated wellness floor with a fitness centre, a terrace pool and jogging track.
There are two main dining areas; LIME a 24-hour open kitchen concept restaurant serving international specialities and Asian flavours and the Orchid Club Lounge on the rooftop.
The hotel was conferred the Green Mark Platinum Award by the Building & Construction Authority in Singapore.
The Green Mark scheme recognises buildings which have adopted sustainable features and practices to promote energy and water efficiency as well as environmental conservation. The Green Mark Platinum is the highest rating for green buildings in Singapore.
Pan Pacific Hotels Group owns and manages more then 30 hotels, resorts and serviced suites with over 10,000 rooms. The Group comprises two brands: Pan Pacific and Parkroyal.
