The Regent Singapore – Museum Quality Library


Traditional caping, worn by young Bugis girls as a modesty piece.

Have you ever dreamed of spending a night in a museum? I mean, without Ben Stiller and the gang. The Regent Singapore is a pretty good substitute. The pieces that you see in the lobby are, in many cases, museum-quality artifacts.

I stumbled on a book called Treasures of the Regent Singapore in the hotel club lounge. This terrific book fills in the holes and gives details on the hotel’s collection, from textiles to jewelry to weapons.

Delicate craftsmanship revealed in these earrings.

The items on display call for a leisurely examination.

What about you? Ever staying in a museum? How about a hotel that feels like one?
