F1 Weekend 2024 in Singapore: Where to Eat and Stay the MICHELIN Way

Speed, sumptuous accommodations, and satisfying meals await at these MICHELIN restaurants and hotels with a sky-high view of the proceedings at the Formula One 2024 Singapore Grand Prix.

F1 fans, it’s time to buckle up. The Formula One 2024 Singapore Grand Prix will be zooming back onto the streets of Singapore from 20 to 22 September 2024 for one of the world’s most exhilarating night races.

Though most tickets to the adrenaline-fuelled proceedings would’ve probably been snapped up months prior to F1 weekend, the good thing about the Marina Bay street circuit is that it runs through the very heart of the city.

This means that many of the city’s best hotels and restaurants – MICHELIN establishments among them – that already offer unparalleled views of Singapore’s skyline will now serve as an excellent vantage point for race viewing, far from the jostling crowds below. In any case, fans who’ve already secured their tickets will nonetheless appreciate a base that’s suitably close to the action.

Two MICHELIN Stars
MICHELIN Guide Singapore 2024


Contemporary British restaurant Jaan by Kirk Westaway towers over most of its culinary peers of Singapore. Not only for its receiving of two MICHELIN Stars — denoting “excellent cooking that’s worth a detour” — since the 2021 edition of the Guide, but also, in a more literal way, thanks to its lofty standing 70 storeys above the streets of Marina Bay. In other words, it’s almost perfectly positioned for any F1 enthusiasts who wish to catch the races while supping at Westaway’s produce- and terroir-driven high table to reimagined British classics.

Jaan by Kirk Westaway is located at Swissôtel The Stamford, Equinox Complex, Level 70, 2 Stamford Road, 178882, Singapore. Book your table here.

Saint Pierre

Two MICHELIN Stars
MICHELIN Guide Singapore 2024


Come for the unrivalled views of Marina Bay from two-MICHELIN-Starred Saint Pierre’s perch on the second floor of One Fullerton and stay for chef-owner Emmanuel Stroobant’s equally peerless command of contemporary French cuisine inflected with Asian touches, as expressed through a prix-fixe menu that leans heavily on the bounties of the ocean. Combine this with an intriguing wine list and excellent service, and you’ve got the recipe for an F1 weekend experience that’s equal parts exhilarating and epicurean.

Saint Pierre is located at One Fullerton, #02-02B, 1 Fullerton Road, 049213, Singapore. Make your booking here.

Summer Pavilion

One MICHELIN Star
MICHELIN Guide Singapore 2024


While MICHELIN-Starred Summer Pavilion may not boast of the same million-dollar view of the racetrack as the other contenders in this list, it provides a taste of old-world Cantonese luxury within the sumptuous confines of a sophisticated dining room. Think hand-painted tableware, hearty double-boiled soups replete with nourishing and luxe ingredients and a selection of rare, specialty teas to wash it all down. The restaurant’s location on the third floor of The Ritz-Carlton Millennia Singapore makes it an ideal spot for any fan seeking a Chinese banquet before — or after — their team has made history on the track.

Summer Pavilion is at The Ritz-Carlton, Millenia, Level 3, 7 Raffles Avenue, 039799, Singapore. Make your booking here.

Vue

Selected
MICHELIN Guide Singapore 2024


This spot features contemporary European bites melding the best of both Western and Eastern gastronomy, serving large format sharing platters, kissed with smoky binchotan (Japanese white charcoal). And of course, a rooftop spritz bar offering up a breathtaking view of the Singapore cityscape, plus the Formula One race cars whizzing by below. As a sky-high viewpoint for this year’s F1 weekend, MICHELIN Selected restaurant Vue has it all — and then some.

Vue is at OUE Bayfront, Level 19, 50 Collyer Quay, 049321, Singapore. Make your booking here.

WHERE TO STAY


With the right level and facing, a room with an attached balcony at the hotels surrounding the street circuit is akin to having your very own sumptuously appointed private skybox. Another plus point — the chance to sip on chilled bubbly that won’t be going at an outrageous price point.
JW Marriott Singapore is situated right at the heart of the action.

JW Marriott Hotel Singapore


F1 fans can hardly go wrong with a stay at JW Marriott Hotel Singapore, as it’s situated right at the heart of the action with a sky garden and accompanying infinity pool overlooking the track. Many of the well-appointed suites and rooms offer that trackside view as well, along with a commanding panorama of the Marina Bay area to boot. Accessibility is excellent, thanks to a connection to Singapore’s train system directly below the hotel.

Cost of Stay: Prices start at S$514 for its lead-in Deluxe Guest Room category. Book your stay here.

Mandarin Oriental Singapore


The five-starred Mandarin Oriental Singapore wears its ethos of regal opulence on its sleeves. Its lobby, amenities and well-appointed rooms ooze with a charmingly restrained elegance, leaving one’s mind clear to focus on the impressive views of the Marina Bay street circuit outside your window. Here’s a tip — spring for a room tier that grants access to The Oriental Club on the 19th floor for the best possible views of the race.

Marina Bay Sands


Just as there is no night race quite as iconic as Singapore’s F1 Grand Prix, there is no hotel more synonymous with unadulterated luxury than the three interconnected towers of Marina Bay Sands. Its resplendently fitted rooms and suites — along with a sky-high bar and rooftop infinity pool — provide some of the ritziest viewing points in the city for all the Formula One action you can handle. Good eats are in no short supply either, thanks to the proximity of such feted establishments as Tetsuya Wakuda’s Waku Ghin and CUT by celebrity chef Wolfgang Puck.

Cost of Stay: Prices available on request. Book your stay here.

PARKROYAL COLLECTION Marina Bay


PARKROYAL COLLECTION Marina Bay serves as a greenery filled sanctuary conveniently located just off the track for race-weary travellers. It earns its “hotel in a garden” branding through and through, starting with sustainability-forward amenities in the gorgeous, woodsy suites, all the way to a magnificent sky-lit atrium filled with over 2,400 types of flora reaching through all 21 of its levels. The result? Good vibes, along with excellent views of the track from most of its rooms.

Cost of Stay: Prices start at S$647 for its lead-in Urban Deluxe King category. Book your stay here.

The Ritz-Carlton Millenia Singapore


Geographically speaking, The Ritz-Carlton Millenia Singapore can’t be beaten in terms of sheer proximity to the races. It's just minutes away by foot from the F1 Pit Building and the nearby grandstands, making it ideal for fans lucky enough to have snagged tickets (and, if the hearsay is true, Formula One teams as well). The fact that the hotel manages to strike a fine balance between contemporary, luxurious and high-tech all at once doesn’t hurt either.

Cost of Stay: Prices start at S$707 for a lead-in Kallang Guest Room. Book your stay here.
