Far East Hospitality to launch 3 S'pore hotels

FAR East Hospitality Management will launch three Singapore hotels over the next three months. These are the Village Hotel Katong in the Marine Parade/East Coast area, Amoy at Far East Square in the Chinatown/CBD area, and a relaunch of the Rendezvous Grand Hotel in the Bras Basah area which Far East Hospitality Trust (FEHT) acquired recently from Straits Trading Company.

Far East Hospitality is the hospitality management arm of mainboard-listed Far East Orchard Limited (FEOrchard). The parent group, unlisted Far East Organization, owns about 52 per cent of units in FEHT.

First off in the three hotel launches is the 229-room Village Hotel Katong, which has emerged as a modern Peranakan-themed hotel following an approximately $30 million makeover of the old Paramount Hotel.
