ROSEWOOD DEBUTS IN HONG KONG AND BANGKOK
CHANGI AIR P OR T ’S JEWEL OPENING IS UPON US THE WAIT IS ALMOST OVER – Changi Airport’s much vaunted mixed-use
development, Jewel, is due to open to the public this month, giving visitors more than 280 new retail and dining outlets to choose from when they fly to the
10
Lion City. Encompassing some 134,000 sqm, the development has a number of key attractions, including Southeast Asia’s largest Nike store, an IMAX cinema, a Yotel short-stay hotel and a 40-metre-high Rain Vortex – the tallest indoor waterfall in the world.
Much of the new facility will be open from April 17 onwards, though
unfortunately travellers will still need to wait until mid-2019 for the opening of the development’s rainforest-style Canopy Park, which features elevated walkways suspended 25 metres above the ground.

LAST MONTH saw Rosewood Hotels and Resorts make two notable debuts in Asia- Pacific with the opening of the Rosewood Hong Kong and the Rosewood Bangkok – the company’s first properties in each city. At the Hong Kong hotel, guests can look forward to generously sized rooms (starting size is 53 sqm), 80 per cent of which offer views of the city’s harbour and famed skyline on Hong Kong Island. In the Thai capital, meanwhile, guests will
find themselves in the heart of the city’s Lumpini business and retail district with a choice of regular guestrooms, suites, or its large “House” accommodations, the latter all offering private terraces and outdoor plunge pools.
