This development will add to Changi Airport’s current hotel offerings, which include YOTELAIR at Jewel Changi Airport and the Crowne Plaza Changi Airport at Terminal 3.  

Both properties are also under the OUE Group’s portfolio. 

CAG CEO Lee Seow Hiang said: “The hotel concept proposed by OUE was the most compelling and promises to be the first zero-energy hotel in Singapore, and possibly the first for an airport hotel in the world.  

“With travel demand continuing to soar and passenger traffic growing beyond pre-Covid levels, the new hotel will elevate the hospitality offerings at Changi Airport. It will serve our visitors well with its differentiated facilities and convenient access to T2.” 

Hotel Indigo Changi Airport will prioritise sustainability, aiming for energy neutrality in operations.  

The hotel plans to incorporate solar panels, hybrid cooling systems, and rainwater harvesting, among others, to minimise environmental impact and enhance guest experience.
