PB hotel design editorial

The white-painted colonial barracks that line Sentosa Island's former British military compound were built in the early twentieth century to house troops stationed at one of the Empire's most strategically prized outposts. Converted and opened in 2019, The Barracks Hotel Sentosa preserves the two-storey verandah buildings with careful restraint — terracotta-tiled pitched roofs, cross-braced timber balustrades, and colonnaded ground-floor arcades remain intact, the broad lawns fronting the facade kept clear in a way that honours the parade-ground geometry of the original garrison. The interiors, designed around a colonial explorer aesthetic, layer dark-stained timber panelling with brass fittings, studded leather campaign trunks, and director's chairs in the public spaces — a vocabulary that sits somewhere between a gentleman's club and a well-appointed expedition outfitter. Guest rooms carry exposed beam ceilings, walnut-toned wall cladding, and deep-soaking stone tubs visible through open bathroom thresholds, the overall atmosphere evoking a well-travelled officer's private quarters rather than a resort hotel room. Vintage travel photography framed in gilt borders and open wardrobes with carved timber grilles extend the narrative further. The pool courtyard, edged with black river pebbles and tropical plantings of heliconia and palm, runs alongside the original barracks wing, the juxtaposition of immaculate white Heritage architecture against lush equatorial greenery giving the property its most distinctive quality — a resort that carries the weight of history without being overwhelmed by it.

"We had a relaxing three nights at The Barracks on Sentosa. Amazing service, wonderful breakfast and very tasty canapes with drinks every afternoon. What more can you ask for."

"We spent a perfect 48 hours at The Barracks Hotel Sentosa to celebrate our wedding anniversary, and it was nothing short of magical. From our Friday arrival to our reluctant Sunday departure, the service was world-class. The experience started on a high note with Mr. Gopal at security. Even though he isn’t a direct hotel employee, he was an absolute gentleman—kind, funny, and genuinely welcoming. He set the tone for our entire stay, and the hotel should truly recognize him for the incredible first impression he provides. Emily was another standout; her infectious smile and genuine kindness made her a wonderful ambassador for the brand. Special thanks also to JJ, Gabbie, Zoey, and Jeffrey, who worked tirelessly to make our stay feel like a dream. To the many other staff members whose names we didn’t catch: thank you for going above and beyond to make our anniversary unforgettable. We cannot recommend The Barracks Hotel enough. We arrived as guests and left as friends, feeling truly celebrated!"

"I should start by mentioning I've stayed at Capella and Sofitel in Sentosa recently so this is my 3rd hotel in Sentosa. Amazing facility. A very luxurious boutique hotel in the middle of Sentosa. Only hotel guests are allowed on the premises, so with 40 suites, it's very quiet and exclusive, away from the noise of families with kids that can dominate other hotels in Sentosa due to the proximity of Resorts World. We had a duplex suite which was a large suite with a separate sitting room downstairs and a suite upstairs accessed via stairs in the courtyard. There are only 4 of these in the property. There are 2 identical 30-metre pools with spa jet nooks. The bedding is extremely comfortable and the bathrooms are as luxurious as you'd expect. The air-conditioning works well. The evening canapés and free-flowing alcohol are amazing and a welcome retreat from the heat and humidity. Breakfast is not a buffet but the offerings on the menu are substantial with Asian and Western options. Staff are extremely attentive and remember your drinks preferences and address you personally. My only complaint (and this could be my fault for not finding it!) is that there isn't a power point in the bathroom for the hairdryer, which I get is a safety issue as hotels in the UK no longer have power points next to sinks. However, there's not an alternative place to blow-dry your hair in front of a mirror as power points elsewhere in the room don't have mirrors close by. Would I choose Capella over this? Maybe, if I wanted my own bungalow and a buffet breakfast with a bar and restaurants on-site. However, The Barracks is much closer to Imbiah Station for the Sentosa Express so you can get to Resorts World or VivoCity without relying on the hotel shuttle, which you'd have to do at Capella."

"Although the room was situated at level 2, it was quiet. Room temperature was just nice, and the bed and pillows were comfy. The evening wine and canapé and breakfast at The Living Room were delicious and well presented. Staff were attentive and prompt in service. Special thanks to Vivien who reached out in advanced, with the relevant information prior to our stay. Checking in and out was a breeze. Thanks to Vivien and team for the warm hospitality and extra effort to decorate the room for our marriage anniversary stay. And not forgetting the lovely cake that was given to us during the evening canapé time. Thank you for the memorable stay!"
