Housed in a traditional conservation shop house located in the heart of Chinatown, the New Majestic Hotel features an emphasis on strong design, local culture and the Arts. The new hotel aims to be a beacon of the New Asia genre of hotel where history is blended with modernity, international design with local inspiration a cutting-edge product of their time. From the open concept period-inspired lobby with restored vintage Compton fans to the dramatic pool with glass inserts floating above the restaurant, to the selection of period colonial furniture from Singapore in the 1920s- 1960s, New Majestic Hotel is a stunning and eclectic mix of heritage chic.
Each of the New Majestic's 30 rooms will be different, from the mix of vintage and designer furniture through to the customized baths. Room highlights include suites with private gardens, attic style rooms with loft beds in six-meter high ceilings. There will be a mix of four key types of design rooms: The Mirror Room, where the design highlight is continuous ribbon of mirrors that begin on the walls, climbing up and on the ceiling, and returning to the ground to form a bed head, the Hanging Bed Room, where murals span whole walls, and are artistically integrated with the space of the room. These murals form the bed-head behind a modern re-interpretation of the classic four-poster bed. The Aquarium Room, with the bathroom usually tucked away in a typical hotel room, the Majestic now celebrates bathing through a glass-encased central bathtub feature in the middle of the room. Upon entering this room, the glass bathtub Aquarium is a visual window to the sleeping space, balcony and views beyond. The Loft Room, whether lounging on a designer couch or soaking in the twin vintage tubs, the loft room merges sensuous and relaxing activities in a singular dwelling space. Resting on slender columns, the sleeping chamber floats above in a light filled attic space, celebrating the unique architectural qualities of the classic Singaporean Shophouse.
New Majestic Hotel has collaborated with Asian Art Options to create and integrate an element of local Art into the hotel’s spaces through nine of Singapore’s emerging artists: Safaruddin Abdul Hamid (aka Dyn), Andre Tan, Lee Meiling, Heleston Chew, Tay Bee Aye, Kng Mian Tze, Miguel Chew, Sandra Lee and Justin Lee. All artwork featured is original, site-specific and fully integrated into the spaces, working with the hotel’s unique room types. Each of the wall mural artworks has been designed specifically for the living space of The New Majestic hotel room. From upside-down anamorphic messages which can only be viewed when guests lie on specific parts of the hanging bed, to joyful pop art murals that are a sumptuous mix of Eastern and Western icons, to a giant goldfish mural floating in a room that plays with dimensions by situating the guest inside the tank, and scenes of nostalgia from bygone Singapore, each of the art works in the hotel has been carefully selected to complement the Majestic room experience. As a highlight within the hotel, New Majestic will also feature five room personalized by top creative individuals from unique disciplines. Each of the personalities have been given free-rein over their individual rooms from flooring selection, to color of walls, and personalized interior decoration. These special concept rooms will be a tribute and showcase of Singapore’s creativity and design vision to international media and visitors.
As part of the New Majestic experience, the hotel offers select indulgences to make the travelers’ stay a thoughtful and pampering experience. Each room will have its own personal CD/Radio Bose stereos, plasma/LCD Phillips TVs and wireless broadband. In addition, guests can look forward to unique experiences in bedding and toiletries for a truly personalized stay with the New Majestic Hotel: luxury bed scapes Working with niche luxury brand, Ploh, which focuses on developing exceptional down pillows and bedding for the discerning consumer, New Majestic has customized its bedscape taking its design influence from a bedding item of Asian origin, the bolster, and incorporates this iconic item into the Majestic sleep experience. Adding generously filled down and feather pillows, a plush featherbed, and a lightweight white goose down duvet, all covered in smooth 280 thread-count pure cotton bed linens in plain white, a truly inviting Majestic sleep experience has been created.
The uniforms specially designed for New Majestic by fashion designer Wykidd Song, were created in tribute to the rich history of the building and open concept lobby. Featuring a neutral palette of off-white, khaki and grey, the look is modern tropical set against the white canvas of the lobby as a backdrop. A key element in the designs reflects openness and approachability, and the heritage of the hotel building as well as its surrounding old world Chinatown environment.
