As elegant, luxurious, and luxurious as a stay at the W Singapore in Sentosa Cove can be, people are expressing a willingness to splurge in support of inclusion.

It costs more than $ 500 for a night stay, yes.

The five-star luxury resort hotel is being widely praised online after its social media team reposted a picture of local fashion model Andee Chua and her Taiwanese YouTuber boyfriend Hugo Liu enjoying a vacation there.

The post on W Singapore’s Facebook and Instagram accounts on Monday (September 14) has quickly become one of the hotel’s most engaged posts, garnering hundreds of comments, shares, and thousands of likes.

On Reddit, people are also praising the hotel for its role in the representation.

When contacted by AsiaOne, a W Singapore spokesperson clarified that the image that has since gone viral is not an ad, it is a forwarding of user-generated content made by hotel guests.

“We are in the business of welcoming everyone and occasionally feature guests with their permission on our social platforms,” ​​the spokesperson said.

However, it would not be the first post by W Singapore proclaiming its support for the LGBT community. In June, the team made a post in solidarity with the hotel chain’s LGBT pride campaign, though that one had a low profile on social media.
