COMO Hotels and Resort’s global portfolio continues to grow with its first hotel in Singapore located in the group’s new immersive experience building…
The COMO Group has announced that the newest addition to its global portfolio and the first hotel in its home country, COMO Metropolitan Singapore, will launch in September 2023 with a soft opening. The property will be located within COMO Orchard, the brand’s newest immersive experience development spread over 19 floors in the heart of the city.
It is the most complete iteration yet of the vision that brings together the brand’s fashion, wellness and cuisine into one inspiring location. The property will host COMO Metropolitan Singapore’s 11 floors of luxury accommodations, a rooftop pool bar for guests, as well as floors for dining, a wellness centre and fashion retail. The result is an inspiring and curated gathering place for innovators and creatives.

Opening in successive phases starting in September, the 156-key hotel boasting city-wide views, is the first of the spaces sheltered in the property to launch. For this project, the group has collaborated with several award-winning talents including Italian architect Paola Navone, Otto Studio, Japanese interior design-consultant Koichiro Ikebuchi, Atelier Ikebuchi, American-Thai interior designer Preeti Sriratana, Modellus Novus and Norwegian digital artist Thomas Hilland.
The brand’s wellness centre, COMO Shambhala, has been leading preventative health in the hospitality industry for over 25 years throughout 16 global COMO properties. The newest addition to the portfolio shelters over 800 square metres of wellness facility dedicated to holistic wellbeing, offering luxury spa treatments, addressing both core movement, with yoga, Pilates, Gyro, gym and functional fitness and nutrition, including gut health and body composition diagnostics. Classes, workshops, one-day Wellness Packages and multi-day Wellness Paths allow guests to choose their wellness journey, or have one curated for them.

In addition, COMO Orchard will host three dining establishments throughout the building. Debuting its first-ever international location is the beloved Michelin-starred New York and Miami Korean steakhouse, COTE by restaurateur Simon Kim, offering signature cocktails and an impressive wine selection. For visitors in search of a nutrient-packed meal, COMO Cuisine will be serving all-day dining classics featuring Singaporean favourites, as well as healthy fare from the celebrated COMO Shambhala Cuisine. Also making his Asia debut is internationally acclaimed French pastry chef Cédric Grolet, who will serve his signature, extraordinary confections in his pastry shop on the first floor.
With two floors dedicated to fashion retail curated by multi-label boutique Club 21, visitors will find dynamic, seasonal collections and pop-up partnerships. Personal shoppers will be available to help navigate the space and purchases will be delivered directly from the Club 21 floors to guests’ hotel wardrobes.
The way these different innovators and luxury lifestyle experiences intersect is seamlessly integrated in the flow of the building’s spatial design, the introduction of fuss-free technology and signature service. The result is a global first – an inspiring gathering place to suit all moods, from morning to late, for customers with a passion for the COMO vision of what modern luxury can really mean.
