Knightsbridge and Grand Park Orchard are scheduled to open in the first half of next year.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Knightsbridge branding is in line with our vision for Grand Park Orchard to become synonymous with fashion and luxury. Our unique concept and strategic location has attracted many sought-after international brands and we are confident that Grand Park Orchard is set to become an iconic landmark on Orchard Road,&#8221; said Mr Allen Law, Director of Park Hotel Group.<\/p>\n<p>Named after London&#8217;s most fashionable address, Knightsbridge promises timeless chic and classic style.\u00a0 The dazzling exterior of the hotel includes a herringbone-designed glass fa\u00e7ade and incorporates a dramatic eight-storey tall media wall. Retail units facing Orchard Road boast direct street entrances and frontages never seen before for shopping spaces in Singapore. Double-volume fa\u00e7ade frontages are an added benefit for retailers who can fully showcase their brand labels.\u00a0 Knightsbridge also features flexible floor plans which can be customised to clients&#8217; requests.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;As a fashionable hotel and stylish retail destination located along Orchard Road, we will satisfy a niche market for discerning consumers. Be it the stylish hotel lobby, the metropolitan sky bar with its stunning pool, or Knightsbridge itself, Grand Park Orchard will be transformed into a fashion icon and the place to be seen,&#8221; added Mr Law. <\/p>\n<p>Grand Park Orchard will become the flagship hotel of the fast growing Park Hotel Group.
