'Knightsbridge' on Orchard Road - Flagship Retail Concept Opening in 2010

Singapore's world famous Orchard Road is soon to be graced with an exclusive new retail concept branded 'Knightsbridge'. The iconic brand name has been chosen for the chic four-storey retail podium opening next year at 270 Orchard Road.

The 83,000 sq ft luxury shopping destination is integrated within an S$80 million makeover of the former Park Hotel Orchard - currently being renovated and re-branded as a 5-star hotel. Knightsbridge and Grand Park Orchard are scheduled to open in the first half of next year.

"The Knightsbridge branding is in line with our vision for Grand Park Orchard to become synonymous with fashion and luxury. Our unique concept and strategic location has attracted many sought-after international brands and we are confident that Grand Park Orchard is set to become an iconic landmark on Orchard Road," said Mr Allen Law, Director of Park Hotel Group.

Named after London's most fashionable address, Knightsbridge promises timeless chic and classic style.  The dazzling exterior of the hotel includes a herringbone-designed glass façade and incorporates a dramatic eight-storey tall media wall. Retail units facing Orchard Road boast direct street entrances and frontages never seen before for shopping spaces in Singapore. Double-volume façade frontages are an added benefit for retailers who can fully showcase their brand labels.  Knightsbridge also features flexible floor plans which can be customised to clients' requests.

"As a fashionable hotel and stylish retail destination located along Orchard Road, we will satisfy a niche market for discerning consumers. Be it the stylish hotel lobby, the metropolitan sky bar with its stunning pool, or Knightsbridge itself, Grand Park Orchard will be transformed into a fashion icon and the place to be seen," added Mr Law.

Grand Park Orchard will become the flagship hotel of the fast growing Park Hotel Group. It features 309 luxurious rooms and suites, including Designer Suites and underlines Park Hotel Group's profile and ambition as a premier hospitality chain in the Asia-Pacific region.

British Columbia A Hot Destination This Winter

Lift accessed hiking at Fernie – image courtesy Fernie Alpine Resort and Robin Siggers

A new Nicklaus golf course, alpine hiking, and award-winning cuisine served al fresco is just the beginning.

It may seem counterintuitive to look to Canada when planning a warm-weather holiday, but when the rain falls and the temperatures dip Down Under, in British Columbia the mercury is rising. With average (northern) summer temperatures of about 26 degrees amidst the gentle breezes of the Pacific, and 30 degrees in the interior of the province, BC also boasts over 16 hours of glorious sunshine in early July—plenty of daylight hours to experience province's wealth of incredible summer experiences.

What does this mean for golf enthusiasts heading to Bear Mountain Resort in Victoria? That they can book economical "dusk" tee times after 7pm and still get in 18 holes. Victoria is now home to the only 36 holes of Jack Nicklaus Design golf at any one facility in Canada, with the opening of the new Valley Course on May 31, 2009. The new golf course, a 6,807 yard, par 71, 18-hole championship course is built at a lower elevation than the current Mountain Course, but will boast the same spectacular west coast rock and water features.

What does this mean for those looking for a Rocky Mountain high? That in Fernie they can experience lift-accessed hiking trails—including guided tours, and mountain biking with more than 37 bike trails and something for all levels.

What does this mean for those with a penchant for patio dining? That while dining al fresco, visitors' eyes may indeed be larger than their stomachs as they stare at jaw-dropping vistas whilst savouring the province's much lauded cuisine. If high-end vineyard dining is your style, there's no better time to head to the interior of the province where a drive south from the stunning city of Salmon Arm will take you straight through award-winning vineyards and past its warm inland lakes, eventually winding up in Osoyoos, Canada's only desert.

What does this mean for soft adventure seekers? That kayaking, white water rafting, canoeing, camping, surfing will not require a parka or beanie—but don't forget the sun block. And if you've always wanted to alpine ski in your T-shirt and Bermuda shorts, Whistler's Horstman Glacier is open until the end of July.

With such economical airfares to North America including direct from Sydney to Vancouver on Air Canada, or Auckland to Vancouver on Air New Zealand, there is literally no better time to visit BC.

Global Nomad Presents The Philippines in Style

Unique new travel concierge service offers bespoke trips to spectacular beaches, luxury villas and private islands in The Philippines

Luxury travel specialist Global Nomad is launching a range of off-the-beaten-track bespoke tours of the Philippines, aiming to totally refresh and redefine perceptions of The Philippines as a travel destination.

Global Nomad’s Philippines tours give discerning travellers access to places and experiences that they would never be able to discover for themselves, and include visits to breathtaking beautiful private islands, and stays at the private homes of the rich and famous.

The Global Nomad team share years of knowledge about the Philippines, allowing guests to explore destinations undiscovered by mass tourism, experience unique cultural insights, whilst enjoying stylish comfort and exceptional cuisine.

“The Philippines is an ideal place for discerning adventurers who enjoy being the first to explore something new, have a real and meaningful experience with locals and nature, and who also want to contribute something to the communities they visit” says Global Nomad’s Director of Marketing, Ian Rowen.

Destinations beyond the colourful, chaotic and mesmerizing metropolis of Manila include the untouched and remote islands of Batanes, the stunning rice terraces of Banaue, the spectacular white sand beaches and karst cliffs of Palawan, the magnificent Spanish heritage town of Vigan, plus many more.

“We customize each of our tours for small groups only, and seek out charming and unexpected locales with a strong sense of place, and we make them lavish and unforgettable. Beyond plasma TVs, our passion is creating meaningful experiences and authentic encounters with the local environment and culture” said Global Nomad's philanthropist founder, Angelica Berrie.

She continues: “quality, not quantity, is our motto. We spend a considerable amount of time ensuring the enjoyment of every individual. Wherever we go, we connect our guests with local people and places, which are the heart and soul of our island experience.”

A commitment to protecting local culture and the environment has led to partnerships with Filipinos eager to share the best of the country's beauty with travel connoisseurs.

Memorable ‘experiences of a lifetime’ range from dining barefoot under a full moon on an exposed sandbar, to feasting on fresh-caught fish off banana leaves in an isolated beach, or watching the sun set from the sand dunes of Ilocos, listening to schoolchildren singing welcome native songs and joining fisherfolk hauling in their nets.

A wealth of outdoor experiences for intrepid travelers include trekking, rock climbing, hiking and world-class dive sites including the famed Tubbataha Reef and the Japanese wrecks of Coron.

Luxurious island villas or majestic mountain getaways can also be arranged for weddings, family reunions, and other special events, with event coordinators organizing photographers, film crews, musicians, dancers, personal butlers, nannies or any other “one-of-a-kind” experiences.

About Global Nomad

Global Nomad was founded by philanthropist Angelica Berrie. Angelica travels for inspiration and her desire to share the best her country has to offer led to the founding of Global Nomad.
