The Singapore Tourism Board (STB) and ARTOTELGroup collaborated to present five exclusive Singapore-themed hotel rooms at ARTOTEL Thamrin-Jakarta. This collaboration aims to establish Singapore as an attractive tourist destination in the minds of Indonesians and encourage them to reimagine their trip to Singapore in the near future.
The five rooms feature wall murals painted by local Indonesian artists, namely Melissa Sunjaya, TUTU, IRSKIY, TUYULOVEME, and SICOVECAS. The wall murals are painted according to the artist’s interpretation of passion tribe which is in Singapore. So, guests staying in Singapore-themed rooms can pose in mural paintings for Instagramable photos, while re-imagining their vacation experience.
“STB’s collaboration with ARTOTELGroup, one of the leading boutique hotel and lifestyle groups in Indonesia, is expected to inspire Indonesians to visit Singapore. While planning a vacation back to Singapore through the Vaccinated Travel Lane (VTL), Indonesian people can enjoy offers and attractive promotions to rekindle their travel dreams through a Singapore-themed stay experience that introduces Singapore’s tourist attractions, food, arts and culture to staying guests.” said Mohamed Firhan Abdul Salam, Area Director of STB Indonesia (Jakarta).
