Accommodation

The exhilarating 302 rooms and suites at Mondrian Singapore Duxton are masterfully crafted by the award-winning visionaries at Studio Carter. Drawing inspiration from Singapore’s rich architectural heritage, they’ve transformed classic arches and shutters into striking modern designs. This fascinating fusion of past and present can also be witnessed through the breathtaking views from the rooms, where the timeless charm of Singapore converges with its cutting-edge skyline.

The Duxton View Twin presents an intimate perspective of the vivid district just beyond your threshold. Within, one finds gentle hints of Singapore’s essence embodied in the curved passageways and locally acquired elements. Each chamber boasts an ensuite washroom with a rainfall shower and a reposeful space, serving as an ideal sanctuary for productive work or to enjoy a delicate concoction. Guests are pampered with the renowned Lavazza coffee along with Monogram tea, as well as aromatherapy brought forth by MALIN+GOETZ bath amenities. High-speed Wi-Fi as well as an HD TV is provided for some in-room entertainment.

Dining

As the sun peeks over the horizon, Bottega di Carna beckons early risers and food enthusiasts alike to relish the quintessential morning pleasure: a lavish breakfast buffet that promises a symphony of flavours and an experience to remember. The window walls and a glass roof provide ample natural light and a view of well-manicured greenery, offering an impeccable ambiance, paired together with a commitment to culinary excellence. This haven of gastronomy has redefined breakfast as not just a meal, but a cherished ritual.

The breakfast at Bottega di Carna features a semi-buffet style with the fresh salad station, fruit and yogurt station, and a bread station with a selection of cheese and cured meats to choose from. Highly recommended is the Chili Crab Omelette from the breakfast ala carte menu, showcasing the signature Singapore spicy chili crab sauce fused with the classic Western parmesan Omelette as well as the Chong You Ban Mian which is the Shanghai scallion noodles with bacon and fried egg.

Immerse yourself in the wild and exhilarating atmosphere of Southeast Asia at Jungle Ballroom – a captivating tropical cocktail bar that draws inspiration from the region’s abundant riches, through the secret garden of Mondrian Singapore Duxton. Unleash your senses as you experience the tantalizing allure and seductive charm of this luscious paradise-like retreat.

Innovative and delicious cocktails await such as The Lost Ruins and the Monkey Cup are highly recommended. The Lost Ruin is Jungle Ballroom’s version of a martini with a touch of bitter and botanical finish, made with Brass Lion pahit gin, secco vermouth, and champagne vinegar, refreshing and delectable to the tastebuds. The bar snacks here are second to none as the spicy cumin lamb ribs will not fail to impress, seasoned with in-house soy sauce and dry rubbed with cumin, cinnamon, star anise, chili flakes, and garlic powder. The tender lamb rib falls apart with the pull of a fork coupled with the spicy robust lamb sauce leaving anyone coming back for more. Another notable bar snack is the smoked beef tartare, seasoned with Kampot peppers, chili, and fried curry leaf oil to give it an Asian twist, it features Peranakan influence as it is held together with a local kueh pie tee shell and topped off with grated parmesan cheese.

Facilities

Ascend to the top floor, and indulge in the elegance and sophistication of 1970s Hollywood, all while taking in the breathtaking panorama of Singapore’s shimmering skyline. The property features a rooftop bar leading out to a massive and stunning infinity pool with cabanas all around to ensure full relaxation. Jacuzzi facilities are provided to relieve muscle tension while you lay back and enjoy a deep soak while admiring the bustling city of Singapore.
