NoMad Singapore, the first NoMad hotel in Asia Pacific, has opened reservations ahead of its anticipated debut in late 2026. Located on Orchard Road, the property is positioned to tap into the growing demand for experience-driven luxury stays, with a focus on design, dining, and cultural programming.

The hotel is a joint venture with UOL Group, reimagining the former Faber House with a 14-storey waterfall and a vertical garden façade. The design, by Singapore's WOHA and Los Angeles-based Kevin Klein Design, blends Art Deco elements with Peranakan traditions, creating an aesthetic that reflects both the brand's New York roots and local influences.

Rooms, dining, and amenities

NoMad Singapore will offer 173 guestrooms, including 25 suites, across a 10,225-square-metre space. Guests will be welcomed on the fifth level, where the Lù bar extends onto a terrace and pool. The property will also feature the NoMad Grill, a New York-inspired chophouse, and The Tropicana Club, a craft cocktail bar inspired by Havana's golden age. At street level, Sticky Fingers will serve gourmet soft-serve sundaes.

The hotel's location on Orchard Road provides easy access to retail and lifestyle destinations, as well as Singapore's cultural heritage sites. This positions the property to appeal to both leisure and business travelers seeking a base in the city-state.

Art and community initiatives

A collection of over 1,860 artworks, primarily by Singapore-based artists, will be displayed throughout the hotel. NoMad Singapore is partnering with ART:DIS to support artists with disabilities, continuing UOL's commitment to inclusive art initiatives. This aligns with broader trends in the hospitality industry, where hotels are increasingly integrating local art and social impact into their guest experience.

Kristen Millar, Chief Brand Officer of NoMad, expressed excitement about introducing the brand to new guests in Singapore, highlighting the city's unique ability to blend global influences into something original. The opening will expand Hilton's luxury portfolio and strengthen its presence in the luxury lifestyle segment.

NoMad's entry into Singapore comes as the city-state continues to attract high-end hotel brands. The property will compete with other luxury offerings on Orchard Road, such as the nearby Vista House, which debuted during the F1 weekend. The addition of NoMad is expected to further elevate the destination's appeal for discerning travelers.

For travel advisors and agents, the opening of NoMad Singapore adds a new option for clients seeking a design-forward, culturally immersive stay in one of Asia's key gateways. The hotel's booking system is now open, allowing early reservations for the anticipated late 2026 opening.

As the hospitality sector continues to recover and evolve, properties like NoMad Singapore are setting new benchmarks for luxury travel. The blend of local heritage, contemporary design, and world-class amenities is likely to resonate with travelers looking for authentic experiences.

NoMad's expansion into Asia Pacific is a strategic move for the brand, which has established a reputation for its New York and London properties. With Singapore as its first outpost in the region, the brand is well-positioned to capture the growing demand for experiential luxury in Asia.
