Singapore boutique hotels tap buoyant market to offload
Add BT as a preferred source
BOUTIQUE hotel owners are perking up at active property buying in Singapore, as a pandemic crushed the tourism sector but not the will of the well-heeled in scooping up assets.
A few such boutique properties have been put on the market in the last six months, with owners vying for attention from funds and family offices circling for deals to ride their projected tourism recovery in two years or so.
The latest to go to market is the Aqueen Heritage Hotel at 51 Joo Chiat Road with an indicative price of S$55 million, marketing agent Cushman & Wakefield announced on Wednesday. This translates to about S$2,400 per square foot (psf) on the gross floor area (GFA), or about S$786,000 per key.
