Orchard Hotel Singapore is undergoing a major asset enhancement exercise, with the makeover involving the hotel’s 260 deluxe rooms, ballroom, lobby, Orchard Café and Intermezzo Bar.

CDL Hospitality Trusts, said the enhancements are part of efforts to increase competitiveness and position the property in Singapore’s recovering hotel sector.

To minimise disruption, during the restaurant closure, breakfast will be served at La Terrasse on level two. Other dining outlets remain open as usual.

In December 2017, the hotel’s Hua Ting Chinese Restaurant unveiled a major refurbishment boasting brightly lit interiors and more private rooms, with the largest being the Chairman’s Room, featuring a 20-seat table.
