Hotel renovation FAQ
What should I send for a hotel renovation contractor quote?
Send the room count, floor area, floor plan, required guest-room, lobby, public-area, back-of-house and MEP scope, design status, target completion date and whether the hotel must remain open. Known landlord, building and authority requirements should also be listed so the quote can separate assumptions and exclusions.
How much does hotel renovation cost in Singapore?
Guest room refresh: S$15,000-S$40,000 per room depending on size, bathroom and FF&E grade. Lobby and public areas: S$100,000-S$500,000. Full boutique hotel renovation: S$500,000-S$2,000,000 depending on room count, MEP upgrade and facade scope.
Can you renovate while the hotel stays open?
Yes. Hotel renovation is usually phased floor-by-floor or zone-by-zone — sealed work floor, soundproofing and dust control, off-peak material movement so remaining floors keep operating. Work is normally phased into low-occupancy periods rather than run at night. Weekends and public holidays are charged at normal rates - only the start time changes the price: 21:00-24:00 +30%, 00:00-06:00 +50%.
Do you handle fire safety and hotel licence approvals?
Yes. We coordinate SCDF fire safety, URA use, BCA structural and accessibility, NEA/SFA for F&B areas, and renovation compliance tied to the hotel-keeper licence under the Hotels Act.
How is guest-room soundproofing done?
Soundproof partitions (double board with acoustic infill), acoustic doors with bottom seals, floor de-coupling and bathroom pipe lagging bring corridor, neighbour and MEP noise down to hotel standard for guest sleep quality.
Hotel renovation timeline?
Single guest-room floor: 4-8 weeks. Lobby / public areas: 6-12 weeks. Full boutique hotel: 4-9 months depending on room count and MEP / facade scope.
