Making the most of smart design while still maintaining a sophisticated touch, Weave Suites offers an inclusive serviced apartment experience that provides you with all the infrastructural essentials as well as a sense of community.

Soothing greys and light woody hues are punctuated with dashes of vibrant oranges and teals, making this one of the most photogenic serviced apartments in the city.
Choose from one of five suite layouts, which can accommodate one to two occupants depending on the design. All suites come furnished with smart storage solutions, an en-suite bathroom with rain showers and Dyson and Rituals amenities, as well as a compact workspace. Regular housekeeping is part of the package, as is high-speed Wi-Fi and television streaming. Some of the bigger suites offer built-in kitchenettes, and there is also a communal cooking space on the lower floors.
