| The
Scarlet,
Singapore's first luxury boutique hotel, made her debut in December 2004 after
a S$45 million acquisition and refurbishment. Vivacious and uninhibited, the interiors
of this 80-room hotel pulsate with an eclectic tension, offering all who enter
an adventure for the senses. Nestled
amidst the vibrant Club Street community of creative agencies, specialty shops,
boutique spas, trendy restaurants and cafes, wine bars, antiques shops and art
galleries, The Scarlet provides a completely different
5-star experience. Historic Erskine Road leads you to a row of 1868 Early Shop
Houses and an original 1924 Art Deco building, whose architectural detailing have
been expertly retained and lovingly restored. Inside,
a variety of textures and colours are matched almost in willful contradiction,
to provide a mood which is dramatic, daring and bold. Ambient lighting evokes
a dramatic mood with the creation of contrast between light and dark areas. This
sums up the total experience of The Scarlet - unexpected yet welcoming. |
