The hotel is located on Ann Siang Hill, one of Singapore's historic enclaves in Chinatown, and within the central business district. Opened in December 2004, the establishment occupies a row of preserved shop houses dating back to 1868, and an original 1924 art deco building, all joined together and converted into a boutique residence. Interiors are mainly black, gold and scarlet red, giving the whole place a Victoria's Secret boudoir feel. It has 84 rooms in total, and dining options include a bar with a grey mirror clad ceiling, which serves premium wines, champagnes and exotic cocktails. The Mediterranean-style, open terrace bar and restaurant located on the roof, offers refreshing salads, fresh shellfish platters and an array of grilled and barbequed meats and seafood.
