The F1 Singapore Grand Prix race has many advantages as a street circuit, one of which is the close proximity of luxury hotels to the track. Here are the best Singapore hotels to stay at for an optimum 2024 F1 Singapore Grand Prix experience.
F1 race chasers and fans are revving for the annual Singapore Grand Prix race every September. Whether you’ve snagged the best tickets to the race grounds or value-for-money walkabout passes, having a strategic base (aka a luxury hotel) near the Marina Bay venue is one of the best ways to maximise your time around the tracks.
As a bonus, some hotels offer a stunning bird’s eye view of the F1 Singapore Grand Prix race circuit, allowing a comfortable VIP experience.
Here are the best hotels to stay at for the F1 Singapore Grand Prix race:
Conrad Centennial Singapore
Although Conrad Centennial Singapore only has selected rooms facing the F1 circuit, there are perks to staying at the 2018-refurbished hotel. The brand, under the Hilton group, is also the proud Global Hotel Partner of the McLaren Formula 1 team.
Guests can get a chance to glimpse their favourite McLaren racers as the hotel is known to provide them with accommodation for the race period.
Furthermore, Oscar’s will offer 24-hour dining from September 18 to 23 this year. This all-day service helps the McLaren F1 team stay on European time in Singapore and provides favourites like Nasi Goreng and Wagyu Burger for race fans and night owls.
JW Marriott Hotel Singapore South Beach
The Philippe Starck and Foster + Partners-designed hotel is a 634-key five-star property that provides a stylish stay for guests. Its rooms with the Marina Bay View overlook turn seven of the Marina Bay Street Circuit.
Eligible guests can also witness the exciting race at the Executive Lounge, which offers afternoon tea and evening cocktails.
Mandarin Oriental, Singapore
A year has passed since the reopening of the luxurious Mandarin Oriental, Singapore, a favourite stay among F1 fans. Selected categories of the 468 rooms & 59 suites within the five-star property offer an unobstructed view of turns 16 to 19 of the F1 Singapore Grand Prix circuit. But a little birdie told us that the best view is in fact from the HAUS 65 club lounge due to its high vantage point.
The acclaimed MO Bar will host Race Night with Patron packages from 20 to 22 September featuring free-flow beverages and delectable food from 7pm to 10pm each night.
Guests can dine and witness the race live at the same time via a Race Night Brunch at Dolce Vita. Held on 21 and 22 September, savour a curated spread of authentic Italian cuisine with a contemporary spin.
Marina Bay Sands
For picturesque and panoramic views, the iconic Marina Bay Sands is your best bet. Undoubtedly offering one of the best skyline views in town, guests can unwind post-race at the hotel’s world-renowned rooftop infinity pool and marvel at the night lights.
Marina Bay Sands is also home to various destination nightlife venues like MARQUEE and CE LA VIÉ, which host high-octane after-parties with well-known international DJ headliners at the helm.
Pan Pacific Singapore
With its circuit-side location, guests can witness the exhilarating race of turn 6 at Pan Pacific Singapore.
Watch the competition in comfort via the hotel’s exclusive 2024 “Singapore Night Race Track-facing Room” promotion. Hungry but don’t want to miss the action? Grab a bite and a couple of drinks at the Pacific Club Lounge, which boasts a 360-degree view of Marina Bay including an excellent view of the circuit.
Parkroyal Collection Marina Bay
The sustainability-focused Parkroyal Collection Marina Bay has clear views of turns 7 and 8 at Memorial Corner with its north-facing rooms. Other selected rooms have sight on turn 14 where the cars dash into the Marina Bay section.
For a seamless experience, settle on the 2024 Singapore Night Race Track View package, which guarantees a circuit view. Better yet, opt for the Lifestyle Premier Room with a private balcony to hear the roaring supercars live.
The Ritz-Carlton, Millenia Singapore
Live the luxe life at The Ritz-Carlton, Millenia Singapore. Located inside Marina Bay Circuit, the hotel is also the closest to the F1 Paddock at just a 10-minute walk away. Rooms are also one of the city’s biggest, averaging 550-650 square feet.
If you’re not marvelling at the property’s impressive 4,200-piece contemporary art collection, head over to the spacious Ritz-Carlton club lounge for breathtaking views of Marina Bay. Guests can catch the lighting speed action at turn 16 here.
Swissôtel The Stamford Singapore
One of the highest properties close to the circuit is Swissôtel The Stamford Singapore. The best sections to catch the race from the hotel are before turn 7 and after turn 9, if you’re staying in one of the Harbour View rooms.
Otherwise, head up to Level 65 lounge if you’re granted access with your reservation. You can also have dinner and enjoy the race concurrently at the 70th-floor Skai bar and restaurant.
