DESTINATION

Destination: Lloyds Inn, Singapore

Words - Mancave London | Joan Chang

Pictures - Lloyds Inn

The Lloyds Inn in Singapore is a masterpiece of light, texture, nature, space, convenience and comfort. Taking a minimalist and almost reductive approach they have recently completed re-vamped their aesthetic, to produce a raw and contemporary new look that seamlessly addresses the need of the modern day traveller.

 

34 guest rooms have been carefully thought through each featuring a touch of greenery and nature within this urban landscape. Raw finishes on the wall and floors run throughout the building, complementing the warm colours of the furniture and lush foliage. The key outdoor feature is a modern garden deck and dipping pool amongst the garden greenery. We chatted with Joan Chang, an owner representative of the Inn to find a little more about why the Lloyds Inn should be choice of stay when next in Singapore.

 

We love the concept of your hotel and that every room is different and so carefully thought through. What was the inspiration behind the re-vamp?

 

It all starts with our guests (travellers) in mind. We wanted to create an experiential hotel alongside nature where a stay would not be just a place for the night, but a unique experience they can enjoy - yet close to the convenience they need (we are located a walk from Orchard Road & great transport links)

 

What are some popular things to do and see near your hotel?

 

We are located in town - so many of Singapore's attractions are near us. Visit the National Museum of Singapore, or catch a short taxi ride to Gardens by the Bay, the Merlion, Singapore River, and visit the newly open National Gallery Singapore.

 

What's your favourite room to stay in?

 

The Big Sky Room is our signature room with an outdoor bathtub opening up to the sky. We get booked out pretty fast though, so do book your stay in advance!

Who are the designers/architects of the new look?

 

FARM, design studio in Singapore

 

Place you recommend to eat or drink in Singapore?

 

For authentic local breakfast, Kiliney Kopitiam or Freshly Baked. For drinks/dinner, Kiliney Post Office (KPO) or Kilo at Pact. All are located within 5 min walking distance of Lloyd's Inn.

What is the best time of year to visit, weather wise?

 

All year round! Singapore's climate doesn't change with seasons. The trees & nature landscape in our hotel changes over time, so each time guests arrive it might be a different landscape they're looking at.

 

If you could describe the hotel in 3 words what would they be?
