SINGAPORE-The Pan Pacific Hotel Group says it will finish the $283-million ParkRoyal on Pickering Hotel here in 2012. The 363-unit property, designed by locally based WOHA architecture firm, is supposed to include many sustainable design features.

The property is supposed to have numerous green features, such as a rainwater harvesting system, solar cells for landscape lighting, four-story gardens, waterfalls, planter terraces and green walls. The property will also include a day spa, a 984-foot nature trail, a business center, a roof-top bar and a gymnasium.

Donovan Soon, a senior associate at WOHA, said the hotel helps show how Singapore can be a leader in green design. “We can not only conserve greenery in our high-rise city center but multiply it in a manner that is architecturally striking, integrated and sustainable," Soon said in a statement.

Locally based Pan Pacific currently owns and operates three other properties in Singapore--the ParkRoyal on Beach Road, the ParkRoyal on Kitchener Road and the ParkRoyal Serviced Suites Singapore. The company also has brands in Sydney and Melbourne in Australia, and plans to launch two more in China: the ParkRoyal Serviced Suites Green City in 2013 and the ParkRoyal Taihu Resort in Suzhou in 2014.
