Heritage Collection’s Reinvention and Future Innovations

Blog

Quick answer: The pandemic redefined hospitality, and Heritage Collection answered by fully reinventing its guest experience across Singapore and New York. The pillars: a tech takeover (mobile self check-in via the Heritage Collection mobile app, mobile keys, and a dedicated digital concierge — no reception queues), hybrid aparthotel living (rooms furnished like home, built for bleisure and work-from-anywhere travelers), and sustainability as standard, woven into every stay rather than bolted on. The result is a hotel of the future set inside Singapore’s restored heritage shophouses.

The recent pandemic has undoubtedly been a game-changer for the hospitality industry, prompting a fundamental redefinition of how we operate. At Heritage Collection, 2023 marked a pivotal year as we fully reinvented our guest experience across both our Singapore and New York properties.

📲 Tech Takeover

At Heritage Collection, we’ve transformed the guest journey to prioritize your convenience and time. From our mobile self check-in systems to our dedicated digital concierge teams, guests can now check in at their own pace, entirely removing the worry of missing out on valuable itineraries due to waiting in line for physical check-in. In the coming year, our commitment to innovation only deepens; we are poised to further leverage cutting-edge technology to continuously elevate and refine every aspect of our guest experiences.

🌐 Hybrid Experiences

As an aparthotel, we go beyond typical hotel rooms. Our rooms and apartments are retrofitted with furnishings comparable to that of your own home. In Singapore, our bleisure travellers love the fact that they can continue their remote work practices, bringing the concept of work from anywhere to another level.

There are new ways to travel in this post-pandemic, contemporary world, and Heritage Collection is all about new experiences.

🌿 Sustainability as Standard

The pandemic has significantly accelerated the hospitality industry’s commitment to sustainability, with guests increasingly seeking out eco-friendly options. At Heritage Collection, environmental consciousness is not just an afterthought; it’s seamlessly woven into every aspect of your Heritage Collection experience.
