Design Hotels, Asia
If you crave aesthetics that are just beyond bland, ordinary and normal, these hotels around Asia might just be the design fix you need.
Designed by Norman Forster, Capella Singapore is famous for being the site of the historic Trump-Kim summit in 2018. Madonna and Lady Gaga have both stayed here.
So Sofitel Singapore was designed by the legendary Karl Lagerfeld, so the staff (many of whom are students on internships) wear uniforms by Chanel.
With its floral theme and a see-through bathroom from which you can watch TV, Crowne Plaza Singapore was a revolutionary pioneer in the local hospitality scene when it first opened in 2008. The hotel was designed by WOHA. And the room has many clever features.

Also designed by WOHA, the standout in the hotel is the kitchen-concept lounge on the top floor for club guests. The cabanas by the swimming is a fave spot for Instagram.
While the rooms are quietly elegant, the F&B outlets are just ravishing. Think lots of fresh flower and beautiful porcelain.
