The interiors of the Festive Hotel are vibrant and colourful
Hard Rock Hotel
The 270,000 sqft Hard Rock hotel has a rock and roll attitude and
personality. With 360 guest rooms, 26 meeting rooms and one of
Asia's largest ballroom with seating 7300 visitors, the Hotel is a
breathtaking experience located adjacent to the RWS ballroom and
convention centre. In this hotel, the tropical character of the resort’s
architecture combines with dramatic light features that suit the
glamorous, entertainment-based Hard Rock brand.
The RWS Ballroom and Convention Centre below the Hard Rock adjoin
the Festive Grand Theatre and share pre-function space. The 65,000
sqft ballroom seats 7300 visitors and 5500 for banquets. Its gridded
ceiling with custom-designed star light fixtures, organizes the space,
even when subdivided. The associated 30,000 sqft meeting complex
has a bright and airy interior open to private terraces and gardens.
Equarius Hotel and WaterPark
The West Zone of the Resorts World Sentosa, beyond the Marine Life
Park, is a landscaped development, quieter and smaller in scale than
the central zone. The West Zone will be a more exclusive setting for
visitors to Sentosa looking to escape the hustle and bustle of daily life
and enjoy the landscape or the beach. Here one finds the Equarius
Hotel, the exclusive ESPA Spa and Spa Village, and the luxury Spa Villas
guest quarters. The Equarius hotel, with 360 keys, is located at the edge
of the Marine Life Park and very much part of the landscape experience.
The adjacent Equarius Water Park merges with the rising terrain of
an existing park with its beautiful trails and heritage trees. Located
between the main hotel building and the rising slope of the hillside
are two tree house suites, elevated on stilts and featuring rustic wood
construction. The rustic architectural character of the Equarius property
thus reinforces the experience of its tropical forest setting.
