As the long-anticipated September 2023 launch date draws nearer, a palpable sense of excitement builds for the COMO Metropolitan Singapore, the group’s inaugural foray into its home country’s hospitality market. Nestled in the pulsating heart of Singapore on Bideford Road, just a stone’s throw from Orchard Road, this sparkling new edifice redefines the city’s wellness & hospitality scene.

A crowning centrepiece in the COMO Orchard, an opulent 19-floor tower dedicated to immersive experiences, the hotel elucidates the group’s seamless amalgamation of hospitality, fashion, wellness, and cuisine. With the spirit of COMO suffusing every element of the hotel, COMO Metropolitan Singapore is set to transform Singapore’s landscape into a vibrant tapestry of luxury lifestyle experiences.

Stretching across 11 floors, the hotel brims with bespoke offerings. A resplendent roster of 156 rooms, each a veritable haven of tranquillity, boasts city views. A battalion of design virtuosos, including Italian architect Paola Navone, Japanese interior design consultant Koichiro Ikebuchi, American-Thai designer Preeti Sriratana, and Norwegian digital artist Thomas Hilland, have cast their creative spells to fashion an aesthetic that marries city living with wellness.
