Far East Hospitality Set to Join Global Hotel Alliance in Early 2027

Global Hotel Alliance (GHA) has signed Far East Hospitality, a Singapore-based hotel operator, to its network. The deal adds 26 hotels and serviced residences across Singapore, Malaysia and Japan.

Together, the properties offer 6,212 rooms.

According to Loyalty Lobby and Hospitality Net, the properties will join GHA Discovery, the group's loyalty program. Boutique Hotel News and the other outlets say the move is planned for early 2027.

Loyalty Lobby also noted that the operator may have more hotels than the 26 in this deal, mentioning a figure of 86. The notes do not explain the difference, so the exact scope is not fully clear.

What to watch next

The properties are due to join in early 2027, so watch for official GHA Discovery announcements on start dates and which hotels take part. Confirm program details with GHA or the hotel before you book.
