If you’re planning a visit to Singapore – whether it’s a long-awaited holiday or just a quick stopover between flights – you need to know about Pan Pacific Orchard. This stunning five-star property is redefining luxury in the heart of Singapore’s famed Orchard Road district.
I’m not much of a city girl, but I fell in love with Singapore the moment I arrived. Lush tropical greenery softens the gleaming skyscrapers, making it feel vibrant yet refreshingly open. This city has a reputation for being futuristic (someone once commented on my video, “Singapore is living in the year 3000”), and nowhere embodies that spirit better than the award-winning Pan Pacific Orchard. From the second my Grab pulled up outside the hotel, I was in awe of its unique design and forward-thinking take on sustainability.

Why Pan Pacific Orchard is the Number 1 Hotel in Singapore
Pan Pacific Orchard isn’t just another luxury hotel. Designed by the renowned WOHA Architects, it won “Best Tall Building (Worldwide)” at the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (CTBUH) Awards of Excellence 2024. Its four themed open-air terraces – Forest, Beach, Garden, and Cloud – give guests a sense of space rarely found in a city hotel.
If, like me, you crave nature escapes – this hotel will give you the refreshing break you need. I stayed in the gorgeous Beach Terrace room which gave me access to the best view in the entire hotel. I highly recommend booking this room which gives you amazing views across the city and swimming pool – it's a magical view both during the day and at night.
The hotel also champions sustainability, holding Singapore’s BCA Green Mark Platinum Certification for eco-friendly initiatives like rainwater harvesting, solar panels and renewable energy-efficient systems.

Sustainability at Pan Pacific Orchard: A Green Luxury Hotel in Singapore
One of the most impressive aspects of Pan Pacific Orchard is its unwavering commitment to sustainability. Rising above Orchard Road, this eco-friendly luxury hotel isn’t just about world-class service and design – it’s also a shining example of how hospitality and environmental responsibility can go hand in hand. The hotel integrates cutting-edge eco-technologies into everyday operations, and I loved that Pan Pacific Orchard also empowers guests to be part of its sustainability mission. Rooms feature in-room filtered water dispensers (no more single-use plastic bottles) and recycling bins to encourage eco-friendly habits.
A Hotel in Harmony with Nature
Designed by the acclaimed WOHA Architects, Pan Pacific Orchard was envisioned as a prototype for high-rise tropical hospitality. Its biophilic design brings nature indoors, creating a lush, living sanctuary that epitomises Singapore’s global reputation as a City in Nature. The property brims with over 12,000 square metres of greenery, spread across four themed terraces – Forest, Beach, Garden, and Cloud – each transporting guests into a unique natural landscape. The hotel’s greenery and water features aren’t just aesthetic – they actively cool the urban environment, improve air quality, and sequester carbon dioxide, reducing the city’s heat island effect.
- Forest Terrace: A 3D vertical forest with tropical plants, a stepping waterfall, and landscaped pond.
- Beach Terrace: A tropical oasis with a lagoon, sandy beachfront, and palms.
- Garden Terrace: A curated urban garden with sculptures and framed passageways.
- Cloud Terrace: A sky-high event space surrounded by reflective pools and silver-hued plants.
Recognised Global Certifications

How to plan a Singapore Layover / Stopover
Many travellers visit Singapore as part of a layover or stopover between long-haul flights. Thanks to Changi Airport, consistently rated the world’s best, you can enjoy everything from butterfly gardens to rooftop pools without leaving the airport.
But if your stopover is 6+ hours, consider leaving the airport to explore. With the airport only 20–30 minutes from the city centre, you can easily spend a night at a hotel like Pan Pacific Orchard to recharge before your next flight.
