Fullerton Hotel



The grey Aberdeen granite Fullerton Building is located near the mouth of the Singapore River, in the Downtown Core of Central Area, Singapore. The building has Neo-classical architectural features which include fluted Doric colonnades on their heavy base, and the lofty portico over the main entrance with trophy designs and the Royal Coat of Arms, crafted by Italian Cavalieri Rodolfo Nolli.

The Fullerton building is now a five-star boutique hotel - Fullerton Hotel. The Fullerton Hotel Singapore has 400 rooms and suites which either overlook the atrium courtyard, or face downtown Singapore's skyline, the Singapore River promenade or the Marina Bay. The Fullerton Hotel Singapore has won major travel awards such as the Condé Nast Traveler Gold List award and the hotel received an architectural heritage award from the Urban Redevelopment Authority Singapore for its successful restoration of the former Fullerton Building.
