The Meritus Mandarin Singapore has changed its name to Mandarin Orchard Singapore. The hotel continues to be owned by Overseas Union Enterprise Ltd and managed by Meritus Hotels & Resorts.

Established in 1971, the hotel occupies a prime position right in the heart of Orchard, one of Singapore’s premier shopping and entertainment enclaves. Through its 39-year history, the hotel has witnessed Orchard Road develop from a rural backwater, to become a must-visit destination in Singapore.

“The name change comes at a timely juncture in the hotel’s history,” said Ms. Katherine Wong, General Manager, Mandarin Orchard Singapore. “With the hotel having just completed its multi-million dollar major refurbishment programme, as well as having been awarded its IS 9001:2008 certification, the name change serves as the icing on the cake to complete the repackaged product.”
