The Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS) has awarded a site at Changi Airport for lease to L.C. Development Ltd for the development and management of an airport hotel. The airport hotel, which occupies a site of approximately 7,700 square metres next to the upcoming Terminal 3, is expected to be ready when the terminal opens in 2008.
Mr Wong Woon Liong, Director-General of Civil Aviation said, “The new airport hotel will enhance the convenience of air travellers by offering them hotel accommodation they could check into shortly after clearing immigration and customs at Changi Airport. As a fullservice hotel, it will offer a wide range of facilities and services that will cater to the different needs of our travellers. We are confident that the new airport hotel will complement the existing transit hotels at Terminals 1 and 2 to meet the popular demand for hotel accommodation at Changi Airport, especially for travellers with short layovers in Singapore.”
L.C. Development Ltd has appointed the InterContinental Hotels Group to manage this airport hotel under its Crowne Plaza hotel brand.
