One thing that makes the St. Regis Hotel a sanctuary in Singapore's frenetic island state is the bespoke service that each guest receives. The St. Regis Butler (on-call day and night) may seem gratuitous when first welcoming you, but becomes invaluable when it comes to organizing theater tickets in an unfamiliar city. When you do venture out of the St. Regis's cool lobby, take advantage of the Hotel's proximity to the famous Orchard Road to indulge in Singapore's national pastime of shopping. Also close to hand along Holland Road are the iconic Singapore Botanic Gardens. A little further past the Gardens you'll find Dempsey Hill. The colonial neighborhood has been revitalized as a dynamic hub of restaurants, bars, and antique furniture shops. If you find that a little fast paced, stay in and enjoy the complimentary wine tasting at the St. Regis. While you're at it, why not ask your St. Regis Butler to organize for the chef's specialty to be served in the comfort of your suite.
