  • Rendezvous Grand Hotels – the premier hotel offering superior accommodation for the upscale discerning travellers
  • Rendezvous Hotels –  targeting upper-midscale mindful travellers
  • Rendezvous Studios –  the compact hotel targeting midscale value-conscious travellers

Rendezvous Grand Hotel Singapores’ 3500 square-foot Straits Ballroom was revamped with custom-designed carpet, elegant wall coverings and lightings with spectacular crown mouldings.

English high tea will also be served from Monday to Friday, 3pm to 5pm for guests to relish a classic in-between meal after a long tiring shopping spree in the heart of Orchard road.
Rendezvous Gallery
The Rendezvous Gallery, a new dining concept at RHS, is a tranquil urban reprieve amidst the hustle and bustle of the Orchard Road and Bras Basah areas, where diners at the new restaurants and cafe would bask in natural sunlight during the day.
Lush marbles and Southeast Asia handmade decorative tiles would lend the Rendezvous Gallery an opulence to further promote Rendezvous Grand Hotel Singapores’ long Asian heritage. Botanical themes would also resonate throughout the Gallery, including the courtyard screens and a full height signature feature wall of Asian theme to let its guests and visitors luxuriate amidst the greenery – where food and heritage meet.
