The InterContinental Singapore’s newly refurbished Shophouse rooms and suites reflect the unique Peranakan heritage that is characteristic of the entire hotel, providing the very latest in modern amenities in a contemporary, luxurious setting combined with a warm attentive service style and special touches inspired by the gracious Straits Chinese culture.  Taking their inspiration from the private homes of old Peranakan families who used to live on the upper floors of their businesses in the heart of historic Bugis, the Shophouse rooms and suites feature intimate touches of the rich Peranakan heritage, creating a unique ambience with luxurious furnishings, intricate carvings and artifacts. Modern amenities blend seamlessly into the décor and include a 46-inch LED TV, Bose sound system, iPod/iPhone docking station and high-speed Internet so that guests can stay connected effortlessly to the rest of the world or simply relax in a charming, exclusive enclave, while the hotel’s dedicated, professional team meets every need. *Babas and Nonyas are Peranakan men and women of Chinese and Malay descent. Their heritage dates back to the 17th century when seafarers from China married indigenous Malays and settled along the Straits. Over time, their blend of cultures has created a lifestyle and cuisine which is distinctly their own.
