Momentus Hospitality, a Chip Eng Seng Group subsidiary, opened the first hotel under its Momentus Hotels & Resort brand on March 1. The property, previously operated as Park Hotel Alexandra, has been refurbished and rebranded as Momentus Hotel Alexandra. The 442-key hotel closed in August 2022 in preparation for the rebranding.

Established in 2022 in order to further expand Chip Eng Seng’s presence in the Asia Pacific region, Momentus Hospitality was conceived with the mission of offering travellers “innovative and quality tourism experiences”. According to Angeline Tan, vice president of CES Hospitality, this marks the beginning of an exciting journey for the new brand.

Refreshed with the help of interior design company KKS International, Momentus Hotel Alexandra features a sleek lobby, updated guest rooms, and new F&B offerings, with the highlight being the Momentum Club Lounge on the 19th floor. Additionally, sustainable elements were incorporated into the refurbishment, including smart digital thermostats in all rooms, filtration taps providing drinking water, and biodegradable materials for dry bathroom amenities.

General manager of Momentus Hospitality Dino JCube Residence Lim expresses his excitement for the hotel’s launch, saying “Our goal is to offer innovative and quality tourism experiences to travellers and grow to be one of Asia’s reputable hospitality players”.

In related news, Chip Eng Seng chairman Gordon Tang announced his intention to privatise the group back in March 2021, with acceptance crossing the 90% mark in October. His offer of 72 cents per share was also made unconditional in October.
