An oasis of calm amongst bustling, modern city life, the iconic Raffles Hotel Singapore has old-world character in abundance.

Named after the founder of the island state, Raffles brings history into modern times with 115 suites, all tastefully refurbished to contemporary standards. The hotel’s own arcade is home to branded shops as well as the spa, or you could choose to cool off with a dip in the rooftop pool.

Enjoy breakfast in the Tiffin Room, lunch in La Dam de Pic, afternoon tea in the Grand Lobby and then dinner in Yi by Jereme Leung (Asian cuisine) or The Butchers Block (contemporary steakhouse). All before taking refreshment in the traditional Long Bar, Writers Bar or Courtyard, where you can enjoy a Singapore Sling – in the place it was born!

All suites are decorated in elegant style with teak furniture and marble bathrooms and if you are not sure how to work the coffee machine, your butler is just a call away. Courtyard Suites provide easy access to the hotel’s main facilities and include a veranda, whilst Palm Court Suites are larger and overlook the garden.
