As Duxon Hill is not far from the Central Business District, this hotel is suitable for business guests too.

Inspired by the traditional shophouse buildings, the new hotel will be opened in a three-story building with a terracotta roof and window shutters in the colonial style. All suites will be located in this building while standard rooms will be located in new tower housing. The restaurant, rooftop bar and swimming pool will be also opened here.
