At One Farrer, we believe that sustainability is an ongoing journey shaped by the choices we make and the actions we take. On 4 June 2026, we were pleased to welcome students from the Nanyang Institute of Management to One Farrer Hotel for an engaging Sustainability Tour. The visit provided an excellent opportunity for approximately 20 students and two accompanying lecturers to gain first-hand exposure to the sustainable practices implemented throughout our hotel.

As the students prepare to embark on their new module, Sustainability in Hospitality, the tour offered valuable real-world insights into how environmental stewardship can be integrated into daily hotel operations. Through the sharing of our sustainability initiatives and practices, students were able to explore how responsible approaches can be incorporated across different aspects of hospitality, while gaining a deeper understanding of the role the industry can play in building a more sustainable future.

We are grateful to the Nanyang Institute of Management for joining us and for creating meaningful opportunities for knowledge-sharing and discussion. At One Farrer, we remain committed to supporting sustainability education and inspiring the next generation of hospitality professionals to embrace responsible practices and make a positive difference in the industry.

Visitors stepped into The Farm at One Farrer Hotel and discovered the possibilities of growing commonly used fruits, vegetables and herbs in a high-rise urban setting in Singapore. The experience offered insights into how sustainable practices and thoughtful design could transform compact spaces into thriving green environments, supporting a greener and more self-sufficient city.

During the tour, participants were guided by our friendly team member, who shared useful tips and practical knowledge on maintaining an urban garden, while highlighting how urban farming can contribute to more sustainable living in Singapore.

On 23 April 2026, students from Invictus International School visited the Community Garden at One Farrer Hotel to learn about urban farming and sustainable food production. The visit provided students with valuable insights into the importance of environmental conservation, biodiversity, and responsible growing practices. As part of One Farrer Hotel’s commitment to community engagement and sustainability, the programme aimed to inspire the next generation to embrace environmentally conscious habits and play an active role in creating a more sustainable future.

The “Save Our Planet” towel reuse sticker displayed in all guest bathrooms at One Farrer Hotel serves as a simple yet impactful reminder of the hotel’s commitment to environmental sustainability. By encouraging guests to reuse towels during their stay, the initiative helps reduce unnecessary water consumption, energy usage, and detergent waste associated with daily laundering.

Guests are empowered to participate in this conservation effort through a clear choice: towels hung on the rack indicate they will be reused, while towels left on the floor will be replaced. Through this collaborative approach, One Farrer Hotel promotes responsible travel practices, raises awareness of water conservation, and supports its broader sustainability goals of reducing environmental impact while creating a greener future for generations to come.

The Signify Smart Room System at One Farrer Hotel enhances the guest experience by integrating intelligent in-room controls that improve comfort, convenience, and energy efficiency. Through automated lighting and occupancy-based controls, the system adjusts room settings according to guest presence and creates a seamless and personalized environment. Guests enjoy greater control over their room ambiance while benefiting from a modern hospitality experience that combines technology with comfort.

Beyond enhancing guest satisfaction, the Signify Smart Room System plays a significant role in supporting One Farrer Hotel’s sustainability objectives. By automatically managing lighting and energy consumption in unoccupied rooms, the system helps reduce electricity usage and minimize carbon emissions without compromising guest comfort. The adoption of smart building technology reflects the hotel’s commitment to responsible operations,

demonstrating how innovation can contribute to both operational efficiency and environmental stewardship in the hospitality industry.
