3 Singapore hotel rooms right out of Star Trek
Set phasers to stun and explore. These sci-fi styled rooms are right here on terra firma. Beam me there now, Scotty!

Stop rubbing your eyes, it's not a spaceship. It's the check-in counter at Klapsons.If James Tiberius Kirk had these options, he would forget about those pesky Romulans and order Scotty to beam him directly to these home-away-from-the-Holodeck rooms. You sure ain't on the Enterprise anymore, Jimmy.
The New Majestic Hotel30 rooms. 30 different designs. Whip out that protective eyewear or you'll get a little color-crazy with all the psychedelic themes. The rooms at New Majestic take a page right out of a mesh of design manuals, employing Singapore's emerging artists and creatives to come up with their own concepts -- no holds barred!

Themed suites at Hotel ReGold paint, gold lounges, gold everywhere you see. No, it's not a nasty retro flashback, just one big Hotel Re suite room that's unapologetically over-the-top. The entire Enterprise crew might not be all that comfy here, but we're sure some of the non-human members of the Federation would settle in right away. Waterbeds and open bathrooms -- Kirk would have a field day with one of his green-skinned lovelies.

KlapsonsA handcrafted five-meter stainless steel sphere suspended above the floor. Trekkers call it alien technology -- the folks at Klapsons call it the reception and check-in counter. We think it's almost space-worthy, with the white interiors and lighting. Just throw in the command chair and it's blast-off for sci-fi geeks. The rooms are Trek-worthy as well -- plenty of glass, revolving doors and cylindrical showers to put a smile on crusty Scotty, not to mention the latest that modern science has to offer (high speed WiFi, wireless phones and Nespresso coffee machines -- they didn't have one of those on the Enterprise bridge.)
