Grand Hyatt Singapore opened in March 1971 as Hyatt Regency, then Hyatt's largest hotel, on the Scotts and Orchard corner. After a two-year close it came back in full in August 2025 with 699 rooms in two wings: Strickland's urban Grand Wing and Grant Associates' Terrace Wing of koi ponds, waterfalls, and shinrin-yoku. It now runs on renewable electricity, with an aquaponics loop that turns kitchen waste into growing medium.

History
Grand Hyatt Singapore opened in March 1971 as Hyatt Regency Singapore, then Hyatt's largest hotel and one of the largest in Southeast Asia. Two hundred rooms, reception, a bar, and the Garden Terrace coffeehouse opened that March; the rest of the house was finished by May, with the official opening on 2 October 1971. It carried the Hyatt Regency name into 1979 and, after renovations from 1990 to 1998, became Grand Hyatt Singapore. A kitchen fire at Mezza9 in 2019 caused no injuries. The hotel closed on 19 September 2022 for a full rebuild and reopened completely on 28 August 2025 with 699 rooms.
The setting
Grand Hyatt Singapore has presided over the intersection of Scotts Road and Orchard Road since 1971 — when it rose as one of Singapore's tallest structures at 10 Scotts Road, the premiere junction of the island's luxury hotel and retail corridor. Scotts Road was developed for grand private bungalows in the late 19th century as the plantation era faded, and the district evolved through the 1970s into Singapore's flagship commercial spine. Singapore Botanic Gardens is 19 minutes by transit, the National Museum 16 minutes away, and Orchard MRT provides immediate city-wide connections. 7 km from Universal Studios Singapore. 8 km from Sentosa.
