Step Into the Frame: A World of Global Art and Cinema
At The Vagabond Club, art is the heartbeat of the house. Our lobby serves as a vibrant dialogue of styles, featuring an eclectic collection curated by Peter Millard—a mix of global originals, prints, and reproductions that turn every shared space into an ever-evolving gallery. Even the simple act of moving between floors is transformed into a cinematic moment; our lift features "Evolution (Megaplex)," a looping video installation by the renowned Marco Brambilla that turns a routine ride into a high-art journey. The storytelling becomes deeply personal once you step into your room. Each of our 41 sanctuaries features unique photographs captured by our owner, Satinder Garcha, during his travels across the globe. These intimate snapshots offer a window into a personal global journey, ensuring that every room tells a different story. Here, art isn't just decoration—it’s an invitation to see the world through a different lens.

A Masterpiece by Jacques Garcia
Parisian Opulence Meets Vintage Singaporean Glamour
Marking his Asian design debut, Jacques Garcia transforms The Vagabond Club into a cinematic sanctuary. His signature style—a bold fusion of deep red velvets, dark woods, and gold accents—creates an atmosphere that is both sensual and timeless. Every corner of this heritage property is an invitation to romance, from the evocative lighting to the lush, textured fabrics. Garcia’s vision turns the hotel into an enchanting hideaway, where French decadence and local soul create a stay that feels like stepping into a curated world of style and spirit.
