SINGAPORE: A new hotel will open on the National University of Singapore’s (NUS) Kent Ridge campus in the first half of 2026.
The Ridge, which has 185 rooms, is a “campus hotel” designed for students, visiting academics and professionals, its website said.
The hotel, which is not open to the public or tourists, will be located along Computing Drive, which is near NUS’ School of Computing and the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences.
With three types of rooms, guests will also get high-speed internet, concierge services around the clock and a meeting facility for in-house conferences, the website said.
Guests will also get access to selected National University of Singapore Society facilities, including a pool and fitness centre at Kent Ridge Guild House located nearby.
CNA has asked NUS who the intended operator will be.
In response to CNA queries about the purpose of the hotel, NUS said it serves the university's "increasing number" of overseas academic visitors, research collaborators, executive programme learners and conference delegates, facilitating their academic work and research activities on campus.
"It is not open to the public or tourists," said the university's spokesperson.
The hotel is still under construction and is expected to commence operations in 2026, the spokesperson added. "We will share more information when the campus hotel is officially launched."
