Nice place to go see, and get away from the usual frenzy that can be found in downtown Singapore. Great gardens, beautiful building, worth a visit.

Even if you not want to shop, this is one place at the heart of downtown Singapore where you can enjoy a peaceful morning or afternoon tea, amidst lush greenery. Enjoy local food fare or snacks at Ah Teng's bakery or dim sum at a restaurant on the second floor. It is seldom very crowded.

While not an absolute must, a visit of the venerable Raffles Hotel and its grounds is an enjoyable undertaking The shopping arcade is interesting to browse through, whereas the hotel gift shop has a great selection of Raffles and Singapore souvenirs. The restaurant in the atrium garden is an outdoor delight. Located in the center of the city, the Raffles... More

Loved it, did a Singapore Sling in the Long Bar, a must do! An amazing hotel to look around with a great gift shop.

Another one on the list is to have a Singapore Sling at the Raffles Hotel Long Bar. Great choice of cocktails but frankly you have to have a Singapore Sling because this is where it came from. Raffles is steeped in history and the Long Bar is full of atmosphere. Don't forget to check it out.

This isn't worth a special trip .... but sooner or later you'll walk past. It's worthwhile having a wander even if you don't have a Singapore Sling.

This building is really amazing, it bring you to another age. When you visit it you can believe travelling to the past. Head to the bar and have a Singapore Sling. Avoid afternoon tea

OK it is highly overpriced $26 + tax and service fee for a Singapore Sling but at least I can say I have been there and done it. At least you get the peanuts for free and as it is the only place exempt from their litter law can throw the shells on the floor. Very overpriced but so what,

Go to Singapore and not go to the Long Bar ........never! Its pricey, but hey you only live once and the memory will always be there. A step back in time and pace - fantastic! You won't regret it.
