Events in Singapore

Sustainability is embedded in how we operate at Holiday Inn Express Singapore Clarke Quay. As IHG’s first Low Carbon Pioneer in Asia and a GSTC-certified hotel, we are recognised by the 2025 Singapore Hotel Sustainability Award and PUB’s Water Efficient Building Certification.

Discover our key initiatives below.

Built for Sustainability: Slanted Window Design

The hotel is built with sustainability in mind. Our slanted windows reduce direct sunlight and solar heat gain, helping guest rooms stay cooler naturally so air-conditioning does not need to be turned down as low.

100% Natural Ventilation in Key Areas

Our fitness centre, guest rooms, corridors, and car park are designed for 100% natural ventilation, reducing reliance on mechanical cooling and improving indoor air quality.

Filtered Water Taps in Every Room

All guest rooms are fitted with filtered water taps, eliminating the need for single-use plastic bottles and reducing plastic waste.

Skip Housekeeping, Earn 500 IHG One Rewards Points

Guests who opt to skip daily housekeeping earn 500 IHG One Rewards points, saving water, energy, and detergent while reducing waste.
