Office space on Orchard Road, Singapore

Orchard Road became Singapore's main shopping street in the 1970s, and most offices here sit on top of the malls. Ngee Ann City opened in 1993 with two office towers above the Takashimaya department store, and ION Orchard followed in 2009 above Orchard station. For a renter the practical point is simple: lunch, banks, gyms and shops are in the same building or the next one.

Away from the main stretch the buildings are older and quieter. Triple One Somerset, by Somerset station, was built in 1977 as the Public Utilities Board headquarters and has been refurbished since. Macdonald House sits by Dhoby Ghaut, where three MRT lines meet.

The centres we price include Wisma Atria, The Centrepoint, 160 Orchard Road, Shaw House and United Square up in Novena, among others. Tell us what your team needs and we can line up a few for the same afternoon.

Orchard station (NS22) is on the North South line and the Thomson-East Coast line, which arrived in November 2022, and its entrances open into the malls along the main stretch. Somerset station (NS23) is one stop east, for Triple One Somerset and the middle of the street, and Dhoby Ghaut, one stop further on, changes to the North East and Circle lines. Novena (NS20) is two stops north. Changi Airport takes about 45 minutes by train, with one change at Tanah Merah.

It suits a team that commutes from the north and the east. Two MRT lines meet at Orchard station, and two more are one stop away at Dhoby Ghaut.

Orchard Road is a shopping street first. The pavements fill up at weekends, taxis queue at the mall doors and traffic on the main stretch is slow at peak hour. The side streets and the Novena end are calmer. Most teams take the address and work a few floors above the crowds.

Orchard Road sits between the CBD and the city fringe, with City Hall and Raffles Place to the south and Bugis to the east. Below are the monthly per person figures for a private office for four, drawn from our own listings.

Government data puts Central Region office rents up 0.8 per cent in the second quarter of 2026, the latest figures available, reversing a small dip in the first quarter. Core CBD Grade A vacancy tightened to a record low of 2.6 per cent in the third quarter, and Grade A rents rose 2.0 per cent, their fastest rise since 2022.
