Expansion continues
Scheduled to open in the first quarter of 2027, the 13-storey upscale property aligns with Minor Hotels‘ expansion strategy to strengthen its footprint in major global destinations.
To develop the 200-key hotel, Minor Hotels has partnered with Singapore’s Kajima Development and Abu Dhabi-based Alwathba Investment.
With a prime address at 24 Peck Seah Street in the Tanjong Pagar district, the hotel is within minutes’ walk to the Central Business District and Chinatown.
The property is also less than 200 metres from the Tanjong Pagar MRT Station and 350 metres from the Maxwell MRT Station. This will provide easy access to Singapore’s Downtown Core, Marina Bay and other districts.
“Avani Singapore represents a strategic market entry for Minor Hotels, and we are honoured to have our partners Kajima and Alwathba alongside us as we venture into Singapore’s hospitality sector,” commented Dillip Rajakarier, Group CEO of Minor International and CEO of Minor Hotels.
“Their industry expertise and market knowledge will ensure the delivery of an exceptional hotel experience, creating a vibrant base for business and leisure travellers.”
