Well-known for its Peranakan culture down at Joo Chiat Road, we were very astonished by the beauty of Santa Grand Hotel East Coast‘s rich heritage shophouse inspired architecture. Preserving a copious history and culture, this Peranakan-themed boutique hotel aims to bring Singapore’s unique traditional with its local hospitality to all of its visitors.
Upon arrival on their razzle-dazzle lobby, our eyes were immediately drawn to the glitzy modern decor amidst certain typical traditional pieces of furniture seen in local Peranakan homes positioned in their lobby. Situated on a 2 storey conservation frontage Santa Grand Hotel East Coast is backed by a 5 storey building offering a variety of four distinct themes to bring their guests a refreshing experience in each stay.
Business Area
Family Room
Head up to their rooms and be greeted by patent wall motifs, ornate decorated windows as well as glittery sequins pillows – evidently from the style of local Peranakans. So get comfy with their Family Room that comes with one King-sized bed and one Single-sized bed fit for families. Apart from snuggling in bed, cruise the streets of Joo Chiat and taste the aplenty flavors of authentic Peranakan food such as 328 Katong Laska famous among the travellers and locals or duck out at the Chilli Padi the Nonya Family Restaurant for some real authentic Nonya cuisine. Expect from best available rate to go from $250/night.
Skylight family room
Cosy and capacious, this airy family room with consonant wall motifs of black and white in the third level (which explains the high ceiling) can easily accommodate a family of 3 or 4 as well. It also brilliantly captures the rich Peranakan vibe with a direct view of the spacious room upon entrance. You may enjoy a fab bubble tub time in these family rooms after the brood is done with exploring the myriad of recreations and entertainments nearby along East Coast Park. Oh, Skylight aperture – we absolutely adore the idea of cuddling under the twilight, away from chores or work, to catch up on some pillow talk.
Swimming Pool & Jacuzzi
If you are just looking to get away from it all – the open-rooftop Swimming Pool & Jacuzzi at the sixth level, a unique sight in boutique hotels which features an awesome bird’s eye view of the low-lying housing along Joo Chiat Road stretching all the way to Marina Parade area. Urban shopping malls such as Parkway Parade and i12 Katong malls are easily accessible by walking or buses. The pool is fantastic for cooling off the tropical heat and while the kids are in for a frolic good time, you could have your enjoyment of sun-basking under the sheltered pool-lounges, or to catch up on some readings. Just for you to know that pool towels are obtainable from 7am-9pm in the same level.
