Stellar Lifestyle, the largest managing agent of retail spaces in Singapore’s rail network and a business arm of SMRT, officially launches the Staytion Lifestyle Centre at Dhoby Ghaut MRT Station. This innovative lifestyle centre revitalises the station’s longstanding retail space, introducing a new blueprint for future retail hubs with a curated tenant mix within MRT stations.
A Curated Retail Experience
Unlike traditional leasing practices, Stellar Lifestyle adopts a curated approach, handpicking tenants to better serve commuters and local communities based on location and commuter needs in that neighbourhood. Strategically situated at a central interchange station, Staytion Lifestyle Centre focuses on beauty and wellness-themed lifestyle centre, offering convenient access to work and leisure services that cater to busy commuters without detours from their regular routes.
Expansion Plans and Successful Models
Stellar Lifestyle plans to extend this curated retail approach to other MRT stations over the coming years, tailoring each location to the unique needs of its community. This strategy has already proven successful with hubs like Timezone at Orchard MRT and Hive 2.0 at Esplanade MRT. Tony Heng, President of Stellar Lifestyle, emphasised, “Our vision for transit retail hubs within MRT stations is to create dynamic, integrated spaces that cater to the diverse and ever-changing needs of commuters. Staytion Lifestyle Centre exemplifies how we are continually redefining retail environments to meet evolving consumer demands and benefit the local community.”
First MRT Beauty and Wellness Lifestyle Centre
Staytion Lifestyle Centre enhances the hectic hybrid work life by providing a one-stop hub for work, health, and fitness needs. Commuters can now manage their essential health and wellness appointments conveniently and enrich their daily routines with the following services:
- Medical Centre: Offers convenient health screenings, including X-ray, ultrasound, and visual & hearing examinations.
- Medical Aesthetics Clinic: Provides aesthetic treatments to refresh your look.
- Holistic Wellness Centre: Offers consultations and treatments for healthy eating and weight loss.

Staytion Lifestyle Centre also repurposes its lounge on weekends for community engagement, such as its partnership with Fleawhere, Singapore’s largest flea market operator. These regular weekend flea markets promote a sustainable pre-loved culture.
