1. Muslim-friendly In-room Facilities

Fairmont has two towers, the North and South towers. Do take note of which view you will be getting before booking! Our Fairmont Premier Room comes with a perfect view of MBS, Esplanade, Merlion, and City Hall all in one. You’re welcome.

Surprise! That's the Qibla direction :^)

With the spacious room, we had ample space to make prayers. We took our time to unwind afterward with the panoramic view of the garden city on our personal balcony.

 

2. Segregrated Male and Female Spas

Enough lounging around the room, we’re getting down to check out the various amenities in and around the hotel. First stop, Willow Stream Spa!

Willow Spa consists of the spa itself, a hair salon, a nail salon, a gym, and a mini beauty shop. What’s good is there are separate spa areas for men and women so you can relax and let loose. We’re not allowed to take photos due to obvious reasons but even the photos of the facilities can speak for themselves, right?

 

3. Asian Market Cafe, Halal International Asian Buffet

Located at Level 2, this would be a great choice as your last night for dinner. They provide a buffet spread of both International Asian cuisine and local favorites such as Japanese, Chinese, Malay, Indian and more. Time to get digging!

Did you know we were there the day Asian Market Cafe officially launched as a Halal-certified restaurant? Have a closer look at their Halal-friendly services through our interview with Fairmont Singapore during their opening. 

P.S There are also separate prayer rooms right outside Asian Market Cafe. These are frequently used by restaurant patrons as well as shoppers at the adjacent Raffles City mall.

 

4. In-room Halal Breakfast Service

We all know what lazy couch potatoes we are when we wake up during a holiday. Good thing for us, Fairmont Singapore provides Halal breakfast upon request. These are specially prepared in the same kitchen as Asian Market Cafe (AMC), which is Halal-certified. Now here comes the exciting part. Because AMC is not open during breakfast hours, your Halal breakfast meal comes wheeling in via room service! What a treat.

5. Rest & Relax at the Hospitality Lounge

What’s great about Fairmont Singapore is a hospitality lounge for guests who arrive before the check-in time or have already checked out of their room but have time to kill before their flight.
