Capri by Fraser, China Square, Singapore triumphed at the TDM Travel Trade Excellence Awards 2025 - Asia, earning the City Centre Hotel of the Year - Singapore accolade, which highlighted the comfort, serviced apartment flexibility, and modern design the hotel offers.
The hotel, located in the heart of Chinatown and the Central Business District, caters to corporate guests and lifestyle-driven leisure travellers.

Each studio room also features a fully equipped kitchenette that integrates living and working spaces, whilst its communal hub, The Den, invites guests to connect and unwind without compromising on their privacy.
Additionally, the hotel blends Singapore’s cultural heritage with modern architecture, having local design elements and heritage-inspired motifs in its interiors. The lobby wall also features abacus beads arranged into the Chinese characters “和” (peace) and “祥” (luck), which reflect the hotel’s philosophy of balance and harmony.
Furthermore, the property promotes innovation by integrating advanced technology in its in-room smart controls for personalised comfort. They have a digital concierge, where guests can manage services, explore the neighbourhood, and interact with hotel amenities.
Beyond technology, the hotel reimagines traditional facilities through the Spin & Play laundrette, which transforms a routine chore into a social experience with gaming consoles. There are also collaborative co-working spaces with a conducive environment for business travellers.
To promote sustainability, which is another cornerstone of Capri by Fraser, China Square’s philosophy, the property implements passive and active energy-saving strategies. It has smart HVAC and lighting controls, which earned it the Green Mark Gold Plus Super Low Energy (SLE) certification.
