Luxury lifestyle brand NoMad is making its way to Singapore, marking the brand’s first global expansion under Hilton’s ownership. 

Hilton announced Monday that it has reached an agreement with UOL Group to open a NoMad hotel in the city-state. This is NoMad’s first hotel in Asia, following the London property in Covent Garden, which opened in 2021.

Set to open in early 2027, the 173-bedroom NoMad hotel will be developed in partnership with UOL Group, a leading Singapore-listed property and hospitality group, bringing the brand’s refined yet eclectic approach to luxury hospitality, with a focus on sophisticated design, world-class dining, and immersive cultural programming. 

Strategically placed along Orchard Road, guests will have access to Singapore’s prime shopping and entertainment destinations while still being able to embrace the city’s vibrant cultural landscape. Not only is it close to the luxury retail district, but it’s also moments away from local heritage sites such as Arab Street, Bugis, and Chinatown, offering an authentic connection to the country’s rich culture and history.

“This signing adds a new and significant dimension to Hilton’s phenomenal growth story in Asia Pacific, as we gain a critical foothold in the luxury lifestyle space,” said President of Asia Pacific for Hilton Alan Watts. “With demand for high-end, experience-driven stays surging across the region, the luxury gateway of Singapore offers the perfect backdrop to debut NoMad’s uniquely local luxury hospitality — and will be the first of many cities in Asia to welcome the brand.”

NoMad hotels offer a unique balance between grand and intimate, classic yet contemporary, as it blends luxury with lifestyle. This is reflected through its captivating interior design and cultural influences, like the bespoke local artworks featured in each guest room. Each immersive luxury experience is localized for the destination, featuring personalized services, unforgettable designs, and culinary experiences. 

“NoMad is built on the concept of a hotel as a welcoming home filled with stories, where every detail — from its interiors and rich visual appeal to its thoughtfully curated dining experiences — comes to life. The signing of our first hotel in Singapore marks an exciting introduction of our brand to Asia Pacific,” said The Sydell Group Founder & CEO Andrew Zobler. “This debut is just the beginning as we seek out the best destinations to introduce NoMad, with several deals in advanced discussions in destinations in North America, Europe, and beyond.”

Singapore is expanding its luxury hotel portfolio with the opening of several exciting new properties, including Raffles Sentosa, the first all-villa property on Sentosa Island, and The Standard Singapore, which opened late last year. With the signing of the NoMad hotel, Hilton is taking a step toward their plan of growing its luxury presence to 150 hotels in the Asia Pacific region. Over the next two years, the hotel group is set to open Waldorf Astoria properties in Kuala Lumpur, Sydney, Shanghai, Tokyo, Xi’an, and Hanoi. 

NoMad hotels is also part of the Hilton Honors, the award-winning guest loyalty program for Hilton’s 24 distinct hotel brands. Members who book directly through their preferred channels will have access to instant benefits, including a flexible payment slider that allows members to choose any combination of Points and money to book a stay, exclusive member discounts, and free standard Wi-Fi. You can learn more about it here.

For updates on bookings and opening dates, stay tuned on Hilton’s Facebook, X (Formerly Twitter), and Instagram pages.

Spring and summer call for outdoor adventures, and what better way to do that than to go on a wildlife exploration?

Nestled in the heart of the city’s lush greenery, Mandai Wildlife Reserve is a must-visit destination for nature lovers and wildlife enthusiasts. This nature hotspot features five zoological and adventure parks, namely the Singapore Zoo, River of Wonders, Night Safari, Bird Paradise, and Rainforest Wild ASIA — all of which offer an immersive experience where visitors can encounter exotic animals, explore and learn more about diverse ecosystems, and connect with nature like never before. 

Whether you’re looking for a family-friendly weekend out, a thrilling nighttime adventure, or a tranquil escape into wildlife conservation, Mandai Wildlife Reserve has much to offer, and we’re here to tell you all about what you can expect on your visit. 

From the must-see attractions to dining options and ticket details, here’s everything you need to know for an unforgettable visit to Singapore’s premier wildlife destination. 

Best Time to Go

Singapore is a great destination to visit all year round due to its tropical climate, but if we were to recommend the best season to go, it would be around March to May when the city-state enjoys good weather with an average temperature of 27 °C. Although it’s still warm, the rain is less, thus the humidity is lower, making it the ideal weather for galivanting through Mandai’s parks. 

Springtime is also considered a low tourism season, so you can enjoy the attractions with fewer crowds. This is ideal for those looking to enjoy the scenic views without throngs of visitors getting in the way or to enjoy a peaceful stroll through the reserve.  

Getting There

Mandai Wildlife Reserve can easily be reached via public and private transport. Several MRT and Bus lines can take you straight there. 

There’s a shuttle service (S$2.50) available at Khatib MRT Station (NS14), arriving daily every 15 minutes during operating hours and 20 minutes between 11 PM and 12 AM.

Alternatively, you can hop on the Mandai City Express bus, which has pick-up points all over the city. One-way trips are at S$8 while round-trip tickets can be purchased for S$16. You can learn more about the stations, bus schedules, and pick-up points here.

If you plan on driving to Mandai, there are designated car parks in the area. Those visiting Birds Paradise and Rainforest Wild ASIA should head over to Carpark 1 on the west side of the reserve, while Carpark 2 is best suited for the East attractions such as Singapore Zoo, River of Wonders, Night Safari, Mandai Boardwalk, and Mandai Rainforest Resort. Here’s a map for your reference:

Before You Go

For any trip, it’s important to plan ahead. Knowing which attractions you want to experience allows you to make the most out of your visit. Here are some of our pro-tips to make your upcoming nature adventure a success!

• Build an itinerary – It helps to be fully detailed, but you also don’t have to plan everything by the minute. Just knowing the activities you want to pursue first, as well as which time during the day would be best for a snack break, can help you maximize your time inside the park. We highly recommend downloading the Mandai App, which can help curate your personalized itinerary. You can set up reminders for shows and attractions, do mobile food ordering, as well as access any information you might need while inside the parks. Mandai also has suggested itineraries and experience checklists for each of the parks, which you can view and use here.
• Wear comfortable clothing – The park is best explored at a leisurely walking pace, so make sure you have your most comfortable footwear on. It can also get pretty warm as you’ll be spending most of your time under the sun, so we suggest wearing light, breathable clothing.
• Stay hydrated – There are water refill stations around the park, so don’t forget to bring your water bottles.
• Weatherproof – The occasional showers do come down, so be prepared for any kind of weather. Foldable umbrellas and raincoats can be a good idea to bring, and it’s also helpful to check the weather forecast on the day of your visit to be prepared.  
• Wear insect repellent and sun protection – Although the park takes preventive measures for its guests, you can avoid insect bites by making sure to put on insect repellents and protect yourself from harmful rays by applying sunscreen.

Destination Highlights: A Cluster of Excitement

WEAVE will soon become the home to world-renowned brands and new-to-Singapore dining concepts that will surely make for a one-of-a-kind experience.
