The recently opened Vibe Hotel Orchard Road, located in the residential enclave of Orchard Road, within easy access to Singapore's busiest and longest shopping belt, is the perfect place of retreat in town, catered for travellers looking for a hotel with a character that provides a welcome retreat amidst contemporary design.
We checked into our room on the 10th floor. The Deluxe Room, fitted with a bathtub and dressed in tufted fabric and muted colours, invites travellers to kick back and relax in a thoughtfully designed room to soothe the senses. We love the comfortable king-sized bed, the huge 55-inch LED TV with cable channels, and the multiple universal outlets around the room for easy access. The open-concept wardrobe further adds to the expansiveness of the room's experience, combining functionality and style.
Work up a sweat anytime at their 24-hour gym with essential equipment ideal for your daily workout routine. In addition, the outdoor swimming pool is open from 6am to 10pm.
Exclusive access to Vibe Pantry for all-day refreshments is only available for their corporate members. However, we had the opportunity to check the pantry out, which has cupboards and countertops filled with cola and energy drinks, as well as packets of nuts, granola and chips snacks to munch on throughout the day.
Located in the lobby of Vibe Hotel, their all-day dining restaurant ROOS offers a laid-back dining experience away from the bustle of Orchard Road with a wide selection of menu offerings ranging from Aussie-inspired brekkie items, all-day grills, handmade pasta, and a selection of Asian food fare brimming with local favourites. The interior was gorgeous. There is ample natural light pouring through the tall floor-to-ceiling glass windows, with a cascading waterfall view, as well as intimate and cosy pod seatings.
During our stay, we enjoyed our dinner at ROOS. The lush cafe setting transforms into a watering hole at night. The island bar serves up an assortment of classic cocktails, craft beers and an impressive selection of curated wines from around the world available by the glass. We ordered the Crispy Honey Prawn Dumpling with mentaiko sauce, cream of wild mushroom, Kurobuta Pork Chop, Truffle Gnocchi, Kombu Butter Tagliatelle, and Singapore Laksa to share.
A complimentary breakfast at ROOS is also included for the next morning from 7am to 10.30am (last order 10am). It comes in a set of a choice of mains, with pastries, yoghurt and drink for each person. We opted for the Chef's Brekkie and the Chicken Congee set.
