Hotel Parkroyal on Pickering, Singapore
If you’ve ever wanted to sleep inside a futuristic jungle, the Parkroyal on Pickering is your spot. Designed by the famous local architecture firm WOHA, this place completely redefines the concept of a “hotel in a garden” by essentially rolling out a massive vertical park right on its facade.
Opened in 2013, the building stands out instantly with its crazy, undulating concrete layers. The designers actually modeled these contours after natural rock formations and Asian paddy fields, giving the whole structure a unique, fluid look that contrasts perfectly with the surrounding city skyboxes.
The coolest part? It features over 15,000 square meters of lush greenery, waterfalls, and planter terraces. That’s actually double the land area of the site itself! It’s basically a self-sustaining eco-wonderland, powered by solar energy and a smart rainwater harvesting system to keep all those plants happy.
To top it off, the fifth floor features an amazing infinity pool flanked by colorful, birdcage-shaped cabanas. It’s a wildly popular architectural icon that proves modern luxury doesn’t have to cost the Earth.
Expert reviews
“The stunning architecture at this hotel integrates environmental principles both inside and out; its lush sky gardens can be seen from the street. Floor-to-ceiling glass windows are used throughout to decrease the need for artificial lighting.”
Featured as Fodor’s Choice in Singapore.
“Dramatic, cascading gardens, bird-cage cabanas right on the infinity pool, and a striking design evocative of terraced paddy fields: this outstanding hotel is the work of local architecture firm Woha, which designed everything down to the wastepaper baskets.”
“This “hotel-in-a-garden” is a stylish place to stay, with four floors boasting balconies covered in lush greenery. It offers excellent views of the city skyline from the outdoor infinity pool, and facilities include a spa, gym, restaurant, and members lounge. The location makes it a handy base for exploring Singapore.”

One of the best hotels I've ever stayed in. True 5 star. Every single experience was top notch. Staff were amazing, facilities were well kept, rooms were gorgeous, they even upgraded us to a suite for our honeymoon. Thanks again Park Royal team. We will be back!

Beautiful, cozy, and clean room with great amenities. The bathtub in the room was very nice too, and all interactions with staff (check-in, room service) were very pleasant :)
Our room was given to us slightly over an hour after check-in time. The staff were apologetic and handled it well, which I appreciated very much, and we were given complimentary drinks at the bar. Nevertheless it would have been nice to not wait that long.

A lovely stay
The staff was very helpful and friendly. They even helped us print some documents. The location is great. The room was always very clean and the bed was big.
The menu for breakfast could maybe add something new every day, just to rotate a bit the selections.

Location, room, staff especially Brent was very caring and supportive.
A small suggestion, as Singapore is a global destination tourist from all over the globe is visiting. So I would recommend the hotel to hav3 heath faucets in the bathroom.

Can’t wait for the next time
All the front desk employees are so nice and polite, One night I had noise from construction work near the hotel. The reception manager Ethan on the next day moved me to an upgraded room and gave me $200 in compensation for using the hotel facilities. Beyond that, he was very helpful, caring, and saw that it was important to him that I was satisfied with my stay at the hotel. The hotel itself is very clean! An amazing and beautifully maintained gym, a pleasant and modern pool, and the general atmosphere at the hotel is simply perfect. The spa staff is very professional, especially a therapist named Jasmin who gave me a very high-level professional massage.

Fantastic spot to base yourself in Singapore.
The look of the building. The garden path across the front the building. The products in the bathroom. The location was close to the underground station and China town.

Good location, comfy beds, loved the lush gardens across the property.
The lighting in the room wasn't great - it felt quite dark a lot of the time. Some more direct lighting in the bathroom area would have been handy.

Tropical paradise
The staff were warm and knowledgeable. They offered me a late checkout which was kind. The gardens are stunning.
I loved everything but I think the pool bar menu could have some smaller snacks rather than just huge meals and maybe some more snack street food/local cuisine would be fun.

It was in a great location. Everywhere was “beautiful” with the gardens kept well.

Something outdated in the room and rusty "cages" in the pool at 5th floor. Nothing too crazy but that's it.

Beautifully designed and comfortable hotel
A beautifully built hotel created with a focus on combining hotel luxury with sustainability. Located on the edge of China Town within easy walk of the quays and food markets. Close to the metro as well. Amazing facilities, good buffet breakfast with a wide selection of food options and great service. Rooms are of a good size and furnishings comfortable and modern.
We had some issues initially with having the bed set up for our kids which resulted in a room change late at night. Other than this issue I cannot fault the staff, the rooms, the facilities or the hotel in general. Drink prices are at the high end (not unexpected though).

This was truly special. A fantastic way to start our honeymoon. The staff even brought us a cake to celebrate.
Beautiful property with great staff
Nothing but we didn’t include breakfast so can’t comment on the food.

Magnificently designed hotel with excellent rooms. Pool area beautiful but pool drink prices obscene .
Beautiful hotel.
Location a little sterile. Cost of drinks by the pool just outrageous ($AUD 18 for a can of tiger beer).

Stylish and well-located hotel with a unique concept
A beautifully designed hotel with a strong focus on greenery and sustainability, creating a fresh and modern atmosphere. The location is excellent – right next to Chinatown with plenty of dining options, and very close to the metro for easy access around the city. The rooms are spacious and thoughtfully designed. While there were some minor cleanliness details that could be improved, the overall comfort and design make for a very pleasant stay. Breakfast offers a good variety in a lively setting, though the quality could be slightly more refined. The hotel can be busy at times, especially in the evenings. Overall, a stylish and well-located hotel that offers a unique concept and a comfortable stay.

Beautiful Sustainable Hotel
Parkroyal Pickering is a sustainable luxury hotel, convenient location with a very relaxing vibe. The staff go out of their way to help and please but never in a pushy way. Would recommend including the breakfast, one of the best on offer. The room was quiet, the bed was really comfortable and shades darkened the room at night
There is nothing to dislike about this unique hotel

Absolutely amazing, would choose this hotel any time again
Absolutely amazing! Facilities - everything well though through for your comfort
If I reaaaally need to look for something, breakfast is a bit crowded during the rush hours.

Peaceful. Restful. Valued.
The hotel is excellent. We were given an upgrade and the room was frankly amazing. Brent who looked after out bags couldn't have been more helpful. The staff who came and set up our daughter's bed were awesome too. We spent a relaxing afternoon at the beautiful infinity pool followed by a delicious dinner at the restaurant. We all slept great and were sad to leave. Great place to stay as a stopover or longer. We will definitely be back
