The Garcha Hotels is a luxury hotel group founded in 2015 by Harpreet Bedi and Satinder Garcha, two Indian entrepreneurs. The group consists of a chain of boutique hotels, many of which are located in Singapore.[1][2][3]
The Garcha Hotel's group has operated since 2015 and was created by Harpreet Bedi and Satinder Garcha, two former Silicon Valley entrepreneurs. Bedi is an intellectual propertylawyer while Garcha is the founder of People.com Consulting Inc. Both turned to property and hospitality.[4] Garcha, one of Singapore's most richest businessmen and a polo patron,[5][6] has invested $250 million in the past few years buying heritage properties and converting them into hotels in Singapore and plans for Santiago (old City Hotel),[7] as 'Garcha Hotels' in 2020.[8] In October 2012, Garcha purchased for 75 million dollars the Murray Terrace, a row of 14 pre-war shophouses in Singapore. Then, he created the Six Senses Maxwell out of a building dating back to 1929 and restored in 2009. It was previously operated as an office building mainly by the advertising agency Leo Burnett.[9][2]

The Duxton Club including the Duxton House and the Duxton Terrace, opened in September 2018 near Singapore's Chinatown and the central business district of Tanjong Pagar.[1] The hotel is housed in two prewar colonial heritage buildings with decorations by designer Anouska Hempel.[23] Architect and designer Jacques Garcia oversaw the transformation of the Duxton Terrace.[9]
