Tucked away in the heart of the serene Changi Village is a remarkable testament to innovation and sustainability: The Bus Collective. It’s not just a resort hotel; it’s an exquisite blend of luxury and eco-consciousness, all set within the confines of repurposed retired public buses. This visionary project, brought to life through a partnership between WTS Travel and its collaborators, promises a truly unique and unforgettable experience in Southeast Asia.
As the sun dips below the horizon, a fleet of transformed buses stands tall, each one meticulously designed to offer a unique blend of comfort and luxury. But The Bus Collective is more than just a place to rest; it’s a sanctuary where history and tranquillity converge in a way that has never been seen before.
The grand opening event was nothing short of spectacular, graced by the presence of Minister Dr. Maliki Osman, who officiated the event. As part of the East Coast Plan’s Green and Vibrant pillars, this project embodies the essence of repurposing for sustainable actions. The Bus Collective is set to enhance the leisure ecosystem in Changi Village and create promising employment opportunities.
The Bus Collective stands as a testament to the boundless potential of innovative design thinking in driving positive change. Each guest room, born from the rebirth of retired buses, not only rejuvenates these vehicles but also sets a precedent for integrating eco-conscious practices within the construction and hospitality sectors. This distinctive approach showcases the harmonious convergence of creativity, environmentalism, and tourism, enriching the community and forging unforgettable experiences for both locals and tourists.
The Bus Collective redefines luxury hospitality by seamlessly integrating elegant comfort with environmental consciousness. Luxury isn’t just an afterthought; it’s the very essence of their hospitality. Guest rooms exude a blend of comfort and sophistication, boasting features like composite lamination, marble tops, invigorating rain showers, sumptuous beds, and lavish bathtubs. The service staff are adept at providing tailored experiences, ensuring that guests’ preferences are met with the utmost care.
Strategically positioned, The Bus Collective complements the vibrant Changi Village ecosystem, offering guests effortless access to attractions such as the Changi East Boardwalk and Changi Chapel & Museum. It also features an Experiences Centre that organizes mindfulness experiences and tours that delve into the history and geography of Changi Village.Premium Travel Experience
To support their launch, WTS has introduced a fleet of 20 new travel coaches, ensuring guests have a comfortable journey when traveling locally to attractions or overland to and from Malaysia. Inbound tours and Sit-In-Coach tours have become increasingly popular, and these new coaches provide a premium, comfortable travel experience.
The Bus Collective is dedicated to engaging with the community through the creation of employment and partnership opportunities. They aim to recruit and nurture a team of dedicated hospitality professionals, ensuring each guest receives the highest level of service. Through their engagement initiative, The Bus Collective seeks to strengthen the neighborhood, especially small businesses, by collaborating with them on guest experiences. Guests can savor the rich culinary heritage of the area at nearby restaurants they’ve identified, and they are working with tour operators to offer insightful journeys through Changi’s history and natural beauty.
The Bus Collective represents a significant milestone in the revitalization of Changi Village’s tourism landscape. As Singapore strides towards becoming a sustainable urban destination, The Bus Collective leads the way by exemplifying how eco-conscious elegance and comfort can harmoniously coexist. It’s a destination that not only offers a luxurious stay but also promotes community-centric collaboration, setting the standard for a new era in hospitality.
