The hotel

Raffes Singapore has come to be known as one of the country’s most iconic landmarks. Retaining its striking architecture, unbeatable hospitality and excellent facilities — along with its elegant touches and colonial charm — the magic will start the minute you step through its palm-fringed doors. Meander around the hotel’s lushly landscaped gardens, relax with a treatment in the Raffles Spa - site of the utmost tranquility - or head to the Arcade to while away the hours browsing through speciality boutiques and the Raffles Gift Shop for souvenirs and gourmet gifts. If you need to cool off head to the rooftop swimming pool and a lovely place to relax. The hotel’s Long Bar is renowned for its world-famous Singapore Slings while the new Writers Bar will present bespoke craft cocktails, wines and spirits. Discover the best mooncakes in Singapore at Raffles Singapore, head to Tiffin Room for authentic North Indian cuisine or a quintessential Afternoon Tea in the heart of the restored lobby and allow yourself to be transported back to the hotel's golden days by the early 20th century décor and ambience.

Raffles Hotel is the epitome of unobtrusive but perfect service whereby if something is needed two staff members suddenly appear. From your arrival, when you are greeted by name without ever having been to the hotel before, until your departure when you are smoothly ushered into your waiting car everything works like clockwork. The suites are amazing, choice and service at breakfast seamless and the Long Bar the epitome of how a bar should operate. When linked to the immaculate maintenance of the hotel and gardens and the heritage which hovers in the air it is a stay never to be forgotten. Read less

Staying at Raffles is not just a hotel stay, it is an experience and a destination in itself. My husband & I had a desire to stay at this hotel for 34 years, since we saw it after its first major renovation in 1991. We are now both retired so this was our retirement treat. We received an upgrade to a suite so we were thrilled. The staff were extra special, from the doormen in their immaculate uniforms to the reception staff to our delightful butlers. Vikram the doorman greeted us by name - still not sure how he did that. Fitrah & Emma were our butlers & the most delightful women. We told Fitrah about our bucket list wish to stay at the hotel, getting engaged in Singapore & our recent wedding anniversary. She arranged balloons & a celebratory treat. This was indeed a surprise. This was going the extra mile. We did the history tour with Nazir who obviously had a great love of the hotel & her rich history. This not something you would do every time you went to Singapore, certainly not for the average person because it is ridiculously expensive. But if you have a special celebration, it is well worth treating yourself. I'd recommend a minimum of 2 nights. Read less
