An urban escape at COMO Metropolitan Singapore
First things first: for a getaway sans the travel time, book a room at the chic COMO Metropolitan Singapore. A luxe ambience welcomes you at the guest lobby, which is decked out with artisanal furnishings from Italian brand Giorgetti, alongside botanical art wall by Norwegian digital artist Thomas Hilland. Check into this stay with tech-forward touches, contemporary interiors and – our favourite feature – wall-to-wall windows boasting a picturesque view.
For all the sleep-deprived souls, you can be assured of a good night’s rest at this hotel. Book a suite to enjoy its special SleepHub, specially set up to promote a restful slumber for busy urbanites. Expect a COMO Shambhala eye mask set, COMO Shambhala Sleep Balm, and a serving of soothing chamomile tea. If you’re dreaming of an optimised bedtime routine, you won’t have to lift a finger here.
The crown jewel at this hotel is undeniably the rooftop pool. Make a splash in the azure waters, dip your toes in while admiring the cityscape, or lounge by the pool with a good read. And don’t miss the Sky Bar for all your imbibing needs: sip on premium liquors and handcrafted cocktails, and munch on a curated selection of bites from COMO Cuisine. Take the experience up a notch by popping by during golden hour to marvel at the stunning sunset.
