The DNA: Steeped in history and architectural significance, the boutique design hotel breathes a new lease of life into the former Remittance House, Chye Hua Seng Wee Kee, dating back to 1936. 21 Carpenter comprises two distinct wings: The Heritage Wing, and The Urban Wing, a contemporary five-story extension. The property boasts a rooftop infinity pool and lounge offering breathtaking views across the city and Marina Bay, along with a garden terrace on the third level. There is also an independent neo-bistro and bar, with Michelin-starred chef Andrew Walsh at the helm as the Culinary Director.
