Finding the right home isn’t always straightforward for newcomers. Hotels can feel limiting, and long-term rentals are a big commitment. Serviced apartments bridge the gap, offering flexibility and convenience – and Great World Residences (formerly Great World Serviced Apartments) on Kim Seng Walk has long been a trusted name for expats, families, and business travellers in Singapore. Now with a refreshed brand, upgraded apartments, and new community-minded amenities, Great World Residences in River Valley is evolving with the needs of long-term residents.
Discover Great World Serviced Apartments – now Great World Residences
The rebrand isn’t just about a new name. Great World Residences has undergone a full refresh – think updated interiors, enhanced communal spaces, and even new wellness amenities like a pickleball court launching soon. Its new tagline, “Discover your world within ours”, reflects a shift towards a more immersive living experience, balancing personal comfort with a sense of community.
Located in River Valley, the property offers one- to four bedroom apartments designed for professionals, families and even pet owners. With direct access to Great World shopping mall and just a three-minute walk from the MRT, it’s a great option for those who want convenience without sacrificing space.
A fresh take on modern serviced apartments
Beyond the usual serviced apartment perks – housekeeping, fully furnished spaces, and short-term flexibility – Great World Residences in River Valley is designed for long-term comfort. Apartments range from 74 to 204 square metres and come with thoughtful family-friendly touches like high chairs, cots and children’s cutlery on request. The lineup of facilities at this serviced apartment includes a 24-hour gym, swimming pool, jacuzzi, steam room, tennis and basketball courts, and even a lounge with workstations and meeting rooms.
As more expats and professionals look for longer-term stays without the ties of a traditional lease, serviced apartments are adapting to meet these expectations. With modernised interiors, wellness spaces and an emphasis on community, properties like Great World Residences are proving that serviced living isn’t just about temporary stays – it’s about creating a home.
