Here's What You're Paying For. CanningHill Piers has just completed. It's the tallest residential tower on this stretch of the river, linked directly to Fort Canning MRT, with a hotel, mall and serviced residence downstairs. This guide covers exactly what you'll pay and whether the premium is worth it. By James Ong · CEA Reg No. R008385F · PropNex Realty | Published Apr 2026 | Tenant Guide **Direct Answer:** CanningHill Piers rents run from about $4,500 to $5,800 a month for a 1-bedroom up to $25,000 to $45,000 for a Sky Suite, and river-facing units in the 48-storey tower fetch 20% to 25% more than road-facing units in the 24-storey tower. It's a 1.1 million sqft integrated development with a Moxy Hotel, a Somerset Serviced Residence, a CapitaLand-managed retail podium and a covered link to Fort Canning MRT, a genuinely significant address. The trade-offs to understand before signing are Clarke Quay's nightlife noise and a tenant mix that's still settling in the first months. 1BR Rent $4.5 to 5.8K /month 2BR Rent $6.5 to 9K /month Sky Suite $25 to 45K /month River Premium 20 to 25% vs road-facing Units 696 2 towers Status TOPped 2026 ## What You're Actually Renting What's actually in the building\+ Read →− Collapse CanningHill Piers isn't just a condo with a gym and pool. It's a 1.1 million sqft integrated development with 696 homes in two towers (48 and 24 storeys), CanningHill Square (a two-storey dining and retail podium run by CapitaLand), a 21-storey Moxy Hotel by Marriott and a 20-storey Somerset Serviced Residence by Ascott, linked by a sky bridge at Level 24\. Facilities are spread over Level 3 (outdoor pool, children's play area, jogging track, BBQ pavilions), Level 24 (infinity lounge pool, sky gym, meditation room, spa pool) and Level 45 (sky hammocks, sky deck and views to Marina Bay), the most premium set of facilities on this stretch of river. A covered walkway from B1 reaches Fort Canning MRT (DT20) in about 3 minutes. On the Downtown Line, Chinatown is one stop, Downtown (for the CBD) three and Bayfront four. ## The Rental Numbers | Unit Type | Size | Monthly Rent | | --------------------- | --------------------- | ------------------ | | 1BR / 1+Study | 409 to 549 sqft | $4,500 to $5,800 | | 2BR | \~700 to 900 sqft | $6,500 to $9,000 | | 3BR | \~1,100 to 1,250 sqft | $9,000 to $13,000 | | 4BR / Premium | \~1,500 to 1,700 sqft | $13,000 to $18,000 | | Sky Suite / Penthouse | 2,874 sqft+ | $25,000 to $45,000 | Indicative estimates based on $6.20 psf/mth CCR average (Q1 2026), unit sizes, and integration premium. Sources: EdgeProp, ERA. April 2026. River-facing units in the 48-storey tower fetch 20% to 25% more than road-facing units in the 24-storey tower. For a 2-bedroom, a river-facing CanningHill Piers unit rents for about $9,000 a month, against about $7,500 at Rivière, $8,000 at River Green, $8,500 at Union Square and $8,000 at The Robertson Opus. It's the highest on this stretch, reflecting the integrated-development premium. ## Three Tenant Profiles Which profile fits you\+ Read →− Collapse CBD expat professionals in finance, law, consulting or tech, working at Raffles Place, Marina Bay or Shenton Way on a relocation package or a high income, fit best in a river-facing 1 or 2-bedroom in the 48-storey tower at $5,500 to $9,000 a month, about 10 minutes from Raffles Place and a 5-minute walk from Clarke Quay and Robertson Quay nightlife. The Singapore-based dual-income couple, combined income $15,000 to $25,000+/month wanting security and amenities without a suburban tradeoff, fits a furnished 2-bedroom in either tower at $6,500 to $8,500/month, with two MRT lines and a supermarket in the building. An expat family with one child, a senior executive needing an international school (ISS, Overseas Family School) and a housing allowance of typically $12,000 to $18,000 a month, fits a river-facing 3-bedroom at $10,000 to $13,000 a month. River Valley Primary is within 1km for Singapore citizens, though at this budget it's worth comparing with landed homes in D9 and D10. ## Before You Sign What To Check Before You Commit Because the project has only just completed, every unit is brand new, with pristine finishes and fresh warranties, but the mall is still settling its tenants and some facilities may still be opening. Ask the landlord for the DLP defect inspection report and whether it's been submitted, because outstanding repairs could mean workers in the unit during your lease. Clarke Quay at night is real: bars and live music run late from Thursday to Saturday, and river-facing units below floor 25 get the most noise, so ask for a weekend evening viewing before committing. Confirm whether the unit is furnished; which tower and floor (the 48-storey tower for river views at a premium, the 24-storey tower for Fort Canning views and more quiet); river or road facing (a 20% to 25% rent difference); what's included (air-con servicing, utilities); whether a diplomatic clause is available if you're on assignment; and the MCST rules on podium access, noise and guests that apply in an integrated development. ## What You Can Negotiate Where Landlords Still Have Room To Move Because CanningHill Piers is new to the rental market, landlords are still finding their level, so there's more room to negotiate than in an established building. Ask for 1 to 2 weeks rent-free to settle in, which is standard for newly completed units; a furniture package part-funded by the landlord if the unit is unfurnished, since landlords often prefer that to an empty unit; flexibility on lease length (landlords prefer 24 months but will take 12+12 or 18 months from good tenants); and a clause promising notice and an allowance if defect repairs disrupt your stay. ## The Honest Lifestyle Picture The Upside Is Real - An unobstructed Singapore River view above Level 30 in the 48-storey tower is genuinely one of Singapore's best residential experiences - Fort Canning Park 10 minutes on foot, Robertson Quay, Clarke Quay and Boat Quay within 15 minutes - Raffles Place 8 minutes by MRT The Trade-Off Is Equally Real - Clarke Quay on a Friday night isn't quiet, so the floor matters more here than almost anywhere else in Singapore - Families or light sleepers are better served by the Fort Canning-facing 24-storey tower - Or a quieter alternative like Great World City and River Green on the TEL, 15 minutes east ## Frequently Asked Questions How much does a 2-bedroom at CanningHill Piers cost to rent?\+ Read →− Hide Roughly $6,500 to $9,000 per month, with river-facing units in the 48-storey tower commanding the top of that range, a 20 to 25% premium over road-facing units in the 24-storey tower. Is CanningHill Piers noisy at night?\+ Read →− Hide River-facing units, especially on lower floors below level 25, pick up ambient sound from Clarke Quay's bars and live music, particularly Thursday through Saturday nights. Higher-floor river-facing units and the Fort Canning-facing 24-storey tower are quieter. What should I check before signing a lease on a just-TOPped unit here?\+ Read →− Hide Ask whether the DLP defects inspection has been completed and submitted, since outstanding defect rectification could disrupt access during your tenancy. Also confirm furnished status, tower and floor, river- versus road-facing, and whether a diplomatic clause is available. Can I negotiate the rent at CanningHill Piers?\+ Read →− Hide Yes. Landlords are still finding their level because the project has only just completed, so tenants have more room than in an established building. Ask for a rent-free settling-in period, a contribution to furniture and flexibility on lease length. How does CanningHill Piers compare to other Singapore River rentals?\+ Read →− Hide It commands the highest rents on this stretch: about $9,000 a month for a river-facing 2-bedroom, against about $7,500 at Rivière and $8,000 at River Green and The Robertson Opus, reflecting the premium for a hotel, mall and direct MRT access.
