Hotel YAN is Singapore’s first industrial-chic boutique hotel, nestled on Tyrwhitt Road between Little India and Kampong Glam. Designed with raw concrete, exposed steel, and minimalist décor, it features compact yet stylish rooms, free minibar, in-room amenities, and easy access to hawker food and MRT connections—ideal for design-savvy travelers and city explorers.
Step into Hotel YAN and you’ll be immersed in Jaipur-inspired industrial chic. The lobby’s high ceilings, washed concrete walls, and exposed steel pipes reflect the area’s former life as a warehouse and metal district. Details like the luggage stand made of bare modular pipes and engraved messages on concrete reception counters strike a casual yet thoughtful design balance. The name “YAN,” meaning “swallow,” symbolizes both the bird motif throughout the décor and the hotel’s values of freedom and hope.
Hotel YAN offers around 69 specially designed rooms that prioritize compact comfort and clever design. From 8 sqm Single Loft rooms to larger Deluxe and Balcony rooms up to 18 sqm, each space features thoughtful amenities: high-speed Wi-Fi, LED TVs, Sealy mattresses, electric safes, daily replenished free minibars, bidets, rain showers, and useful extras such as travel-size toiletries. The décor remains consistent with the industrial theme—fuss-free, unpretentious, and purposeful.
Strategically placed along the eclectic Jalan Besar–Tyrwhitt stretch, Hotel YAN immerses you in a neighborhood alive with traditional hardware stores, hip cafés, and hawker culture. It’s a short walk—around 8 minutes—to Lavender and Bendemeer MRT stations, and 10 minutes to Farrer Park MRT. With easy access to Orchard, Bugis, and the CBD, it’s a convenient base for both leisure and business travelers.
Despite its boutique size, Hotel YAN doesn’t skimp on practicality: free Wi-Fi throughout, in-room minibars, laundry services, elevators, daily housekeeping, accessible lifts and grab bars, and 24-hour reception ensure a seamless stay. Additional conveniences include luggage storage, dry cleaning, and thoughtful touches to keep things easy and efficient.
Guest reviews consistently praise Hotel YAN for its location, cleanliness, and clever ambience:
“Loft room well laid out. Quiet and dark inside. Rainfall shower, safe could fit my laptop. Plenty of powerpoints, good toiletries…”
“Located across the road from hawkers and a beer garden… great value for money.”
“Room size was fine for a couple. Friendly staff, and they have a cat! Free minibar—rare these days.”
Feedback underscores the hotel’s appeal: compact yet thoughtfully designed rooms, warm service, and a neighborhood rich in food and culture.
