Sedona Hotels and Suites
Hotel Group

The name Sedona was derived from the pure white Dendrobium Sedona orchid, which was bred for the first time in 1984 at the Singapore Botanic Gardens. Under the careful nurturing of its breeders, it finally bloomed in 1994 and was unveiled at the launch ceremony of Sedona Hotels. A thing of beauty, the Dendrobium Sedona perfectly optimises the level of warm, gracious and personable hospitality the Sedona brand strives to offer.
