About NOVA

One Raffles Place puts you at the centre of Singapore's financial district, and the lift ride to level 63 means the after-work crowd arrives already dressed for it — smart casual holds all week, from the 6pm opening through to 1am most nights. Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays are the ones that stretch to 3am, when the music shifts from lounge and chill house into tech house, techno, trance and hip hop and the terrace turns into a dance floor. VIP booths, bottle service and table service are all available for groups who want to hold ground, though the $$ band keeps it more approachable than the address suggests. The room skews 25 to 45 — young professionals, a steady mix of locals and visitors from Europe and across Asia — and a 4.5 rating across more than 500 reviews suggests the view does most of the persuading.
