The contemporary Australian hospitality brand’s first property outside of Australia offers a social space for travellers to forge connections with like-minded guests and the local area
Singapore, 3 November 2022 – Vibe Hotel Singapore Orchard, the first Vibe Hotel to open outside of Australia, has officially opened today. Managed by Far East Hospitality, a home-grown leading operator of hotels and serviced residences, Vibe Singapore is more than a hotel with character; it is a social space for guests to connect with work, like-minded guests and travellers, and the local area.
Vibe Singapore houses 256 rooms across five room categories (Superior, Deluxe, Premier, Family, Suites) with room size starting from 23 sqm. Located in the residential enclave of Orchard Road, within easy access to Singapore's longest shopping belt, Vibe Singapore caters to travellers looking for a hotel with character that provides a welcome retreat amidst contemporary design.
Come Vibe With Us
Vibe Hotel is committed to being firmly rooted in the pillars of “Lifestyle”, “Connection” and “Discovery”. Guests and visitors are warmly welcomed with a hearty contemporary Australian hello the moment they step into the lobby. Light-hearted conversations, the little touches and the attention to detail will have guests feeling like they are right at home.
Vibe Hotel’s knowledgeable and friendly team (also known as ‘Vibe Hosts’) aims to make meaningful, fulfilling connections with guests, going beyond superficial niceties. The Vibe Hosts also pride themselves on being passionate about the unique local things surrounding the hotel and Singapore. Those casual chats with the team might unearth hidden gems not even locals know!
Purposefully-designed social spaces
Guests are invited to discover the property’s purposefully-designed spaces that provide convenient touchpoints to foster meaningful connections.
Upon entering the hotel, guests are welcomed at the Lobby Bar, the centre stage of Vibe Singapore where they can socialise freely with fellow guests. Located at the heart of the hotel where guests connect, this island bar transitions from a lush cafe setting offering barista-made coffee in the day, to a watering hole at night serving up an assortment of classic cocktails, craft beers and an impressive selection of wines from around the world available by the glass.
Located in the lobby of Vibe Singapore is ROOS, the latest concept by lifestyle group Caerus Holding, an all-day dining destination for hotel guests and diners. Named after the Australian slang for “Kangaroos”, ROOS offers a laid-back dining experience away from the bustle of Orchard Road, with a wide selection of menu offerings ranging from Aussie-inspired brekkie items, all-day grills, handmade pasta, and a selection of Asian food fare brimming with local favourites. In collaboration with Penfolds, one of Australia’s leading winemakers, diners in search of premium wines are welcome to step inside the Penfolds Lounge, a walk-in cellar with an impressive floor-to-ceiling display of wines.
The hotel’s outdoor Swimming Pool serves as a space for guests to enjoy an outdoor barbecue with friends and family in typical Australian fashion, while keeping up with the latest on Aussie sports on the big screen at the Pool Bar. Guests looking to unwind can also enjoy a relaxing day by the pool with a good read and a cocktail in hand.
Guests will be able to work up a sweat anytime at the 24-hour Gym, complete with essential equipment ideal for their daily workout routines. Guests can also pick up a quick snack from the Vibe Pantry, Vibe Singapore’s 24-hour self-service counter offering the convenience of takeaway treats at a supplement fee.
Complete immersion in the Singaporean lifestyle
The relationship between Singapore and Australia is a very close-knit one. As the first Vibe property to open outside of Australia, Vibe Singapore offers the best of both worlds – enabling local guests to experience a taste of Australia served up by the hotel’s friendly staff members, while allowing overseas visitors a trusted and familiar friend who can tell them what’s good to see, do or eat whilst in Singapore.
A huge focus is placed on facilitating community and cultural immersion through Vibe Discovery, featuring Discover Hidden Gems, Private Home Dining and Vibe Recommends — a series of carefully curated activities and in-house programmes by Vibe Singapore centred on unique and authentic hyperlocal experiences
Under Discover Hidden Gems, a Vibe Guide takes guests on an eye-opening and mouth-watering food tour, giving them a peek (and taste) of hidden gems around Singapore. A photographer by profession but foodie by nature, the Vibe Guide will make guests feel immediately at home, much like a familiar friend showing them delicious secrets around the neighbourhood. Guests can also pick up a couple of food photography tips along the way.
Private Home Dining welcomes guests deep into the heartlands with the flavours of various home-made dishes across different cuisines prepared by private home dining chefs, reflective of the quintessential Singaporean way of life. Discover Hidden Gems and Private Home Dining experiences are available for Vibe guests to book at a nominal fee.
Finally, Vibe Recommends acts as a comprehensive digital local guide to the endless possibilities of what to do and where to go in Singapore, including curated round-the-clock itineraries and exclusive perks for guests of Vibe Singapore.
Enjoy Good Vibes
