A five star hotel occupying the upper floors of Asia Square Tower Two, The Westin Singapore sits in the Central Business District with Marina Bay on the doorstep. Rooms and suites start on level thirty two, so the outlook is over the city and the water rather than the street. It works for business and for a city break alike. Breakfast is available rather than built into every rate. Check in is from three in the afternoon and check out is at midday, and pets are not accommodated.

Rooms run from forty to fifty square metres, with floor-to-ceiling windows and a marble bathroom holding a separate bathtub and shower. The Westin Heavenly Bed is standard, a Nespresso machine and minibar sit to one side, and room service runs around the clock. Club categories and the Junior Suite add access to the Westin Club Lounge on level thirty five. Connecting rooms can be arranged in several categories, and cots and rollaway beds are available on request.

Swimming and the gym aside, the Run Concierge maps routes around Marina Bay and Gardens by the Bay, and fitness classes run at the studio. The Westin Club Lounge serves breakfast, all day refreshments and evening cocktails on level thirty five. Two ballrooms handle events, and the concierge desk books reservations and transport. A rooftop terrace and sun deck sit beside the pool, and baggage storage and currency exchange are handled at the front desk.

An outdoor infinity pool runs along level thirty five, with sun loungers, a sun deck and pool towels laid out beside it. Heavenly Spa by Westin handles treatments, with a whirlpool, sauna, steam room and a relaxation lounge alongside the signature menu. The WestinWORKOUT Fitness Studio opens around the clock, and a Run Concierge sets out curated routes around the bay. Fitness classes run at the studio and changing rooms sit beside both the gym and the spa.

Seasonal Tastes on level thirty two is the signature buffet, built around a live interactive kitchen with international and local plates and fresh seafood. Cook and Brew on level thirty three is the gastro pub, with modern takes on bar classics. Lobby Lounge pours through the day and serves a Seafood Afternoon Tea, and Daily Treats is the deli. Room service runs around the clock from the Sleep Well menu, and the Lobby Lounge keeps a happy hour.

Lau Pa Sat and the Shenton Way MRT are a short walk, and Marina Bay Sands, Gardens by the Bay and Chinatown are all close. Changi Airport is twenty one kilometres away, about thirty minutes by MRT. Singapore stays warm and humid through the year, so the pool and the air conditioning both earn their keep. The Central Business District wraps the hotel, so shops, offices and restaurants are all within a few streets.
