The W Singapore - Sentosa Cove is conceived as the feature hotel of the exclusive Quayside Collection, an exclusive blending of commercial, residential and hospitality components set amidst a peninsula and surrounded by maritime activities and features, all close by yet a comfortable distance away from bustling Singapore. The site design is carefully orchestrated to include a marina promenade and beautiful waterside gardens, all visible from the six-story hotel guest wings.
The architectural languages of W Singapore - Sentosa Cove are inspired by the form and geometry of water and aquatic lives:
The W Hotel
The W hotel anchors the peninsula with a gentle and graceful bend that cradles the pool, pool bar and lush garden at the edge of the land. With the fresh sea breeze blowing, multi tint of the front façade glazing mimics the shimmer of the water. And its streamlined wave-like metal roof reflects the warm tropical sunshine. The curvilinear geometry of the entrance canopy with clear glazing and the vertical fins made of translucent white glass all came from the natural beauty of sea lives.
This six-story hotel consists of 250 rooms (300 modules) which include king rooms, junior suites, executive suites and a presidential suite on the penthouse level with a plunge pool at its balcony edge. It also has a ballroom, meeting rooms, all day dining and specialty restaurant, Spa and Health Club facilities. Features, such as landscape garden, pool, pool bar (the lighthouse) and basement parking are included. The total project area is approximately 23,805 square meters excluding the underground parking.
Waterfront Retail
At the neck of the peninsula is the two-story waterfront retail component consists of 16 retail stalls, 27 F&B stores and below grade parking. The waterfront retail’s arching shell-shape roof canopy is supported by white metal columns, which awakens Singaporeans’ reminiscence of boat sail poles. The shop fronts wear vertical metal sun shading as a secondary skin besides its glazing. The total project area is approximately 5,350 square meters excluding the underground parking.
Luxury Residence
Opposite the commercial parcel is the six story luxury residence consists of 122 units which include penthouses with roof garden, a clubhouse, swimming pools and private basement parking. Our design of the residence is focused on the spectacular waterway views open on both side of the peninsula to maximize the pleasure of waterfront living. The top floor units all enjoy a private terrace with a plunge pool on the edge. The total project area is approximately 37,200 square meters excluding the underground parking.
