AMD announces its first Gaming Suite at the Parkroyal Collection Pickering hotel
Note: This article was first published on 26 October 2022.
Yesterday, AMD announced the launch of its first-ever Gaming Suite experience at the Parkroyal Collection Pickering hotel located near Raffles Place MRT station. Equipped with top-of-the-line ASUS, Microsoft, and Secretlab gaming gear, the suite will be available for booking from now till 31 Dec, and interested parties can choose from two different experiences, detailed as follows.
The first is the standard AMD Gaming Suite, which offers a fully-themed Urban Suite in the hotel. The room itself is immensely spacious (it is still a suite, after all) and features two Xbox gaming consoles, two ROG Zephyrus G14 gaming notebooks (hooked up to 27-inch monitors), and a full range of ASUS headphones, mice, speakers, and other accessories.
Alternatively, guests can also choose the AMD Gaming Pack option, which is admittedly more like an upgrade than a dedicated suite experience. Specifically, AMD describes it as a "modular add-on" for bookings of the Urban Deluxe Rooms in the hotel, and selecting this option will set you up with an ASUS gaming notebook, an accompanying 27-inch monitor, a full range of gaming accessories, and a single Xbox console topped off with access to the entire Xbox Game Pass library.
Outside of gaming gear and Secretlab chairs, the Gaming Suite also offers ample supplies of Monster Energy so you can really get some "quality gaming" done during your stay. Additionally, you'll be treated to a complimentary gaming-themed snack platter upon entry to the suite, accompanied by 20% discounts on food and beverages at Lime Restaurant and a 15% discount on spa treatments at St Gregory.
As for pricing and availability, the AMD Gaming Suite will set you back around S$650++ per night, while the AMD Gaming Pack costs S$450++ per night (though the actual pricing for most days is a lot higher - we've checked). Bookings for the former can be made through the Pan Pacific hotel booking page, while those interested in the latter can do so via Trip.com (be sure to select suitable dates to see the AMD Gaming Experience option). Do also note that you'll need to make your booking three days or more in advance. Last but not least, these special rooms are only available till the end of the year, so plan ahead and have a blast of a time!
(Update) If you're curious to know what are the exact ROG products that are available in these suites, they are:
Monitor: ROG Strix XG276Q

Mouse: ROG Gladius III
