The Crowne Plaza Changi Airport in Singapore has been recognized as the best airport hotel in the world for the 11th consecutive year. The prestigious title was awarded at the Skytrax’s 2026 World Airport Awards, distinguished as the “Oscars of the airport industry.” These awards are based on extensive customer satisfaction surveys conducted across over 550 airports globally.
Offering a five-star experience, the Crowne Plaza Changi Airport goes beyond the typical airport hotel concept by immersing guests in the world of aviation. The hotel features aviation-themed family suites designed in collaboration with Kiztopia, providing children with a unique and interactive experience.
In addition to its thematic offerings, the hotel boasts a variety of curated experiences under the Crowne Plaza Social feature, ranging from hands-on cooking classes to cocktail sessions. Guests can also indulge in wellness-focused routines called Daily Rituals, aimed at rejuvenating travelers before or after their journeys.
Setting new standards, the Crowne Plaza Changi Airport is the first hotel in Singapore to introduce NuCalm sleep technology in every room. This innovative feature utilizes neuroscience techniques to enhance stress relief, sleep quality, focus, and recovery, ensuring guests wake up refreshed and rejuvenated.
Moreover, the hotel’s prime location provides direct access to all terminals at Singapore Changi Airport and the renowned Jewel Changi Airport complex, eliminating the need for shuttle services. General Manager Greg Gublani expressed gratitude for the award, emphasizing the team’s commitment to delivering exceptional hospitality and unique guest experiences.
Singapore Changi Airport itself was also recognized as the best airport globally in 2026, with Incheon International Airport, Tokyo International Airport, Hong Kong International Airport, and Narita International Airport following closely behind in the rankings.
