The Standard, Singapore, which opened in late 2024, is a fresh, “quirky tropical oasis” located right near Orchard Road. Built from the ground up on the site of a former serviced residence, this 143-room boutique hotel beautifully mirrors Singapore’s reputation as a “City in a Garden” with its lush, vertical rainforest design.
The hotel’s stunning, award-winning interiors were crafted by the renowned local studio Ministry of Design (MOD) alongside the brand’s in-house team. They managed to perfectly blend a laid-back, mid-century party pad vibe with plenty of local, botanical-inspired elements.
One of the coolest features is right at the front desk. Instead of a boring check-in area, MOD created an oversized glass reception counter that doubles as a living terrarium, packed with psychedelic flora and fairytale-like creatures designed by artist Eric Tobua. It’s a playful nod to the original Hollywood Standard, which famously featured a live modeling glass tank behind the desk.
Inside the rooms, you’ll spot vibrant yellow-tiled bathrooms and a unique timber-ribbed ceiling canopy over the beds—a design signature shared with its famous sister property in New York.

Expert reviews
“Tucked off buzzy Orchard Road, the Standard, Singapore, gives midcentury modern a tropical twist by setting the scene with bold colors, retro-inspired decor, and lush greenery. Art pops everywhere, from Eric Tobua’s surreal reception-desk diorama to Samuel Xun’s larger-than-life floral courtyard sculpture.”

Very good price and value ( particularly if avoided Fri and Sat)
Location near to Orchard Rd so great for shopping. New and shiny addition to the Singapore Hotel scene. Very good restaurant , different and interesting options.
Felt the room was smaller than we expected (compared to the Standard in Bangkok) . Also the bar scene was non existent

Nice stay and location with a relaxing pool.
Very beautiful hotel. I really liked that they have a Bluetooth speaker to listen to your own music. View was nice looking down to the pool. Their restaurant was also great for lunch. Good WiFi.
There could be one more trash bin in the room. But that’s just a very small detail.

Better than expected, given the location.
Singapore hotels were a bit busy in the two trips there (Feb 3-6, 10-13) because of the Singapore Airshow, so I had to pick "The Standard" in lieu of my usual hotels. The place seemed a little out of the way, but the shuttle service was mostly reliable, so that worked out ok.

High quality leafy sactuary
Super luxurious leafy sanctuary for us at the end of our SE Asia trip. Our room overlooking the pool, with huge windows, the pool and service was exceptional. The two restaurants very high quality. Amazing quiet green spaces to enjoy outside.

Exceptionally beautiful hotel in stunning grounds.
Exceptionally well-designed. Beautiful poolside where there was always enough space. Stunning grounds and plants.
Hardly any complaints, but being hit with a £300 laundry bill at the end of my stay caused a little bit of pain. If I had known it would be that much, I would have washed everything in the sink! When I first checked in, the hotel desk guy seemed very flustered and unsure of what he was doing. I waited about half an hour before I was able to check in. He did not communicate well.

Lovely, well designed hotel
The well designed, light room with nice bathroom & comfortable bed plus leafy breakfast area downstairs felt exactly right. Nice variety of food choices. Attentive and friendly staff. Beautiful pool.
The room is gorgeous but for two people both travelling with suitcases, it is difficult to make ´living out of your suitcase ´ work.

I was extremely sick on one of the days and the duty manager personally came to my room to check I was ok
Very modern, lots of green space and great pool and rooms.
The price of food but that’s typical of Singapore I suppose, it was extremely expensive to eat anything at the hotel

Singapore is very expensive but the City works.
Location was excellent. The shuttle service was brilliant and very convenient to take us to the Metro station.
I had erroneously booked an extra day and requested management for a refund which they did not consider my request for a refund.

Great place
Definitely a cool vibe and feels more like a European Hotel. The staff was amazing apart from the people at the check in. They were not really the best at welcoming you.
The staff at the lobby during check in was borderline rude but everyone else was amazing.

Excellent stay!
Very nice vibe, the hotel looks very nice and staff is very helpful and friendly
The only thing we missed was a clothing closet in the room. For longer stays, it’s inconvenient to have to keep opening your suitcase to find your clothes.

- Nice location, quite area and far from Orchard road. - Great staff, they are professional, helpful, and friendly. - The room is nice, not too small and cosy. The bed and pillows were comfy. We slept very well. A special thanks to Louis at the reception, Mimi from the café and the housekeeper who cleaned our room. Sorry, I forgot his name. - Shuttle Bus service to Orchard centre is a plus.
Public transport such as buses and trains are a bit far, they are east 10 to 15 minutes walk from the hotel.

I was genuinely amazed and in absolute bliss at this hotel. Everything is done to the highest standard for comfortable living and for enjoying every detail. The staff are very welcoming, attentive, and exceptionally beautiful, the beautifully designed green garden feels like a tropical forest with playful lighting and a waterfall, a staircase to the second floor, an excellent bar, a delicious breakfast, and a pleasant pool area. It was the first time in my life that I experienced such enjoyment from staying at a hotel. Everything is perfect, everything is selected with taste and elegance. I highly recommend this hotel as a must-visit.

Super funky modern hotel nearby shopping with shuttle to center and gorgeous pool and garden area.
Super Funky modern space and lovely rooms. Nice bedding and pillows! Pool was good size with a swim up bar! Walking distance to the shopping street. Had a shuttle bus to the centre ICON mall and transit esp helpful if you have bags to carry. Friendly staff (but some inexperienced/need training—unsure of how to help (I came down to ask for ice and young woman at the desk said “I have no idea how to get ice” so I said can you ask someone else? after a minute and she did but it was odd)
Just some staff lacking training—as above and also in restaurant. Everything else was fantastic.
