Hiap Hoe Group Selects Wyndham to Brand and Manage Two New Build
Hotels in Singapore - the 391-room Ramada Singapore and
the 405-room Days Hotel Singapore


 
PARSIPPANY, N.J. (Jan. 27, 2010) � Wyndham Hotel Group announced today that its Ramada® and Days Inn® brands will enter Singapore with the development of two hotels: the 391-room Ramada Singapore at Zhongshan Park and the 405-room Days Hotel Singapore at Zhongshan Park. 

Both new-build properties will be developed by HH Properties Pte. Ltd., a joint venture between niche property development group, Hiap Hoe Limited, and SuperBowl Holdings Limited, an owner and manager of leisure and commercial properties.  Construction will begin early this year and the hotels are expected to open in 2014.

To be managed by Wyndham Hotel Group, the properties will be built at Balestier Road, just opposite Sun Yat Sen Nanyang Memorial Hall, a national monument that pays tribute to the father of the 1911 Chinese Revolution.  The Balestier Road area, rich in history, is home to countless shophouses dating back to the 1840s.  With a land area of approximately 17,600 square meters, the hotels will flank Zhongshan Park, creating a unique integrated development with a strong heritage connection and old world charm.
