About Peninsula Shopping Complex

Peninsula Shopping Complex is a strata-titled shopping centre at 3 Coleman Street in the Civic District (District 6), forming the retail podium beneath a hotel tower. NLB Infopedia dates the Peninsula Hotel and Shopping Centre to 1971. The land is held on a 999-year lease, which property portals date from 1828.

Generations of Singaporeans know the mall for its specialist trades. Guitar and musical-instrument shops cluster in the basement, camera and photography dealers trade on the lower floors, and sports shops sit higher up, alongside collectibles, thrift and band T-shirt stores. The hotel above reopened in 2025 as Wyndham Singapore Hotel after a major refurbishment.

Interesting facts

  • The site was once Coleman House, the 1829 home of G. D. Coleman, Singapore's first Superintendent of Public Works and the architect who gave Coleman Street its name.

  • Coleman House later became a run of hotels, including the Hotel de la Paix, and the writer Joseph Conrad is recorded among its visitors. It was demolished in 1965.

  • An underpass beneath Coleman Street links the mall to Peninsula Plaza, and an internal passage connects to the neighbouring Excelsior Shopping Centre.

  • The 2023 collective sale tender often associated with "Peninsula Excelsior" covered only the Excelsior building at 5 Coleman Street, not this complex.
