The Barracks Hotel Sentosa is a Singapore hotel steeped in calm, romance and a touch of history. Read more about it below, plus discover exclusive Singapore National Day offers you can enjoy right now!
History meets hideaway at this Singapore hotel
Set on the leafy western edge of Sentosa island, this 40-room heritage hideaway is housed in a former British artillery outpost. Today, it’s been lovingly restored for the sophisticated modern traveller, complete with polished brass accents, shaded verandas and a quiet elegance that transports you to another era.
Just 15 minutes from Singapore’s CBD, it’s a thoughtful blend of old-world charm and contemporary comfort. Little wonder that The Barracks Hotel was recently nominated for Best Hotel for a Romantic Staycation in the Expat Living Singapore Readers’ Choice Awards!
Check-in here signals the start of a slower pace. Choose from breezy upper-level rooms with private balconies or poolside suites with direct access to a tranquil lap pool. Instead of a conventional lobby, The Barracks Hotel offers a private reception area for a more discreet and personalised welcome. There’s also The Living Room, an exclusive lounge where breakfast is served daily, along with complimentary cocktails and canapés from 4pm to 7.30pm.
More than just a turndown
To mark its fifth anniversary, the hotel has unveiled a refreshed multi-sensory turndown experience that brings together scent and signature style. Guests can now enjoy the British perfumer Miller Harris Tea Tonique collection – featuring luxurious shower essentials, a hand wash and hand lotion set and bath salts upon request – alongside room fragrances created by local artisan, Pryce Tea.
During check-in, guests can select from two custom scent profiles. Graceful Camellia is a blend of Assam black tea, iris and peony; and Starlit Serenity, a soothing mix of French lavender and juniper. These fragrances are gently diffused during turndown, with a scented medallion suspended above the bed for the ultimate wind-down. Also, don’t miss The Barracks Martini Tonique! This signature cocktail created with Pryce Tea is inspired by the scent of Miller Harris Tea Tonique; it’s served at The Living Room.
History tour and nature trails on your doorstep
And the sense of history at The Barracks Hotel goes far beyond its walls. Explore the surrounding area with a self-guided audio tour narrated by military veterans. For nature lovers, there’s a 90-minute Immersive Rainforest Tour along the Mount Imbiah Nature Trail (additional charges apply).
While The Barracks Hotel offers an intimate, peaceful escape, it’s also part of a four-hotel precinct by Far East Hospitality. This means guests can dip into thoughtfully curated lifestyle programming at neighbouring properties during their Singapore stay. These include accessible wellness sessions at Oasia Resort Sentosa, panoramic rooftop views at The Outpost Hotel, or family activities at Village Hotel Sentosa. From sunrise yoga and aqua zumba to outdoor movie nights by the pool, it’s an all-inclusive stay with the freedom to do as much – or as little – as you like.
