The 30-storey, 324-room hotel’s modern facade is a testament to the city’s dynamic evolution and is a perfect place to start exploring the cultural richness of the Telok Ayer precinct.
For a start, the hotel offers an exclusive local precinct tour as a perk for guests staying in the Master Series rooms, which comprise the Grand Premier and Premier rooms.
This walking tour, which is conducted by the Clan Keepers – the hotel’s team of in-house advisors for the Master Series room guests – allows guests to get a glimpse of the city and discover the area’s best-kept secrets.
They will visit nearby heritage sites such as the Thian Hock Keng Temple and Sri Mariamman Temple as well as cultural spots like the bustling Maxwell Food Centre.

A celebration of local artistry
At the heart of The Clan Hotel’s unique charm is The Clan Collective, an initiative that fosters collaborations with home-grown artisans, infusing the guest experience with a touch of Singaporean craftsmanship.
A standout partnership is with Chong Han San, an award-winning tailor whose expertise brings a bespoke elegance to the hotel.
His uniform designs for the staff marry oriental aesthetics with contemporary functionality – an accurate representation of the hotel’s ethos and its commitment to excellence.

A heritage-inspired approach to luxury
At The Clan Hotel, opulence is not about being lavish. It is more about creating an atmosphere that resonates with the “Rooted in Kinship” concept.
For one, the hotel’s design intricately weaves together historical elements with contemporary amenities, creating an immersive experience that honours Singapore's rich heritage.
A modern take on the chinoiserie theme is employed throughout the hotel with touches of nostalgia evoked through details, textures and patterns. Decorative items on the shelves and in the rooms further strengthen the hotel’s aesthetics.
