by James Wilkinson

The brilliant Crowne Plaza Changi Airport has been named World’s Best Airport Hotel for the eight time at the 2023 World Airport Awards this week (Mar 13).

Located at Singapore Changi Airport with direct access to all airport terminals and Jewel, Crowne Plaza Changi Airport caters to travellers who will have more reason for a longer stayover, as well as local visitors seeking meeting venues or a relaxing staycation — thanks to the variety of lifestyle offerings available within and around the hotel.

In addition to deluxe rooms offering unrivalled views of Jewel, guests can enjoy room packages including tickets to Jewel’s Canopy Park attractions such as the Discovery Slides, Foggy Bowls, Petal Garden and Topiary Walk.

“We are delighted to be recognised once more as the World’s Best Airport Hotel for the eighth time,” said Crowne Plaza Changi Airport General Manager, Bruno Cristol.

“I would like to thank our team for this remarkable achievement and their tireless dedication championing a better way of business travel.

“A big thank you to everyone who voted for us and Skytrax. Our deepest appreciation to all our guests for your confidence and continuous support.

“We look forward to welcoming you again at Crowne Plaza Changi Airport,” he said.

On Series 2 of Wayfarer’s travel TV show, Crowne Plaza Changi Airport was featured in a key segment where Wayfarer host and Editor-In-Chief, James Wilkinson, takes a tour of the property with Cristol. To view the video, click on the YouTube link above.
