Keong Hong’s first hotel development in the island will be located in the vicinity of the Katong/Joo Chiat heritage precinct, an area lined with traditional shophouses with diverse retail and food and beverage offerings.

The future mixed-use development will have a gross floor area of 25,000 square metres and will comprise a 131-room Hotel Indigo Singapore, a 451-room Holiday Inn Express, food and beverage outlets and retail shops.
