The 18 planned projects will give a total key count of 4,356, opening up the potential for even more even more visitors. Over half of these projects are nearing completion, with seven more in the pre-opening stages, a good sign for the projected 12 openings this year.

As would be assumed, the majority of these hotels and resorts are at the upper end of the scale, with 11o f the proposed projects ranking in the 5-star sector, while four hotels have 4-stars and the remaining 3 projects set to be 3-star hotels, showing that the market caters for travelers of all demographics. The recently opened refurbishment of the 5-star Concorde Hotel boasts 407 luxury rooms and suites, while the 4-star Ascott Orchard Singapore, a new-build hotel that opened in February this year, welcomes guests into its 220 new rooms, located within the Orchard Road shopping belt.
