Great, Westin sold its landmark Singapore hotels to Swissotel, who sold part of that to Fairmont. Then it's returning now via Asia Square.

haha, that's why when i first read the news, i thought the hotel was too small for westin to make a comeback. It was anticipated that they would come back bigger than they left.
But they probably had no choice but to sell the landmark hotel when they were short of funds. I'm hoping one day, some local investor would buy back Raffles Hotel too. Because now Fairmont Raffles who took over is just building many Raffles Hotels around the world. There's Raffles Hotels everywhere. 2 in Cambodia, a few in China and Middle East. It's just not the original Raffles Hotel we know anymore. |

Recently, more hotels are being built by their own company than by franchise. St Regis and W is part of Starwood too but it is not owned by Starwood. That goes the same for a few hotels in the Accor Group. Asia Square is gonna be a landmark in the Marina Bay Area. |
