We stayed at Raffles for only one night on a stopover through Singapore and it really lived up to expectations and hype. Upon arrival, we were checked in seamlessly, there was champagne waiting for us in our room, and although we didn't see our Butler again the service at the hotel from every staff member we encountered was exceptional.

Have been looking forward to staying at Raffles for a long time and it didn't disappoint! The suite was very spacious and was very comfortable. We only saw the butler on arrival but knew she was there if required. The pool was lovely and we enjoyed a few hours relaxation. Had a sling in the Long Bar and ate in... More

What an amazing place! Right in the hustle and bustle of Singapore is this marvellous hotel which feels like something special from a by-gone era. We were lucky enough to check in on Christmas day and were greeted with a choir singing carols in the main lobby around a massive Christmas tree which was beautifully decorated. The ambience was unforgettable,... More

I have stayed at the Raffles many times and despite so many new choices in Singapore I always come back. It is such a beautiful place, it is like stepping back in time - but with all the modern amenities. The staff is amazing, there are several very good choices for lunch, dinner and afternoon tea. And the pool is... More

We stayed at the Raffles earlier this year on our way back to Australia from a skiing trip in Austria. It was the perfect place to stay in Singapore and we loved the history, charm and beauty of this renowned hotel. It was a haven from the humidity and bustle of the Singapore and the ideal place to unwind for... More

I stayed here in summer and it was a great retreat from the humidity of Singapore. From the outside, it looks more like a than a hotel and it makes you feel the same way. On entry you are catered to every need by staff. The breakfast buffet was amazing though the pricing for the food was slightly too high... More

I first encountered Raffles 40 odd years ago as a young bride, it left a lasting impression. Having had a memorable stay at the superb Raffles Dubai last year was looking forward to this experience. One feels the staff genuinely care about looking after you here and like their jobs. The service, I believe is what sets this Hotel apart.... More

Booked our stay through American Express Fine Hotels & Resorts last Christmas 2012. Our flight from New York via Singapore Airlines arrived early morning on Christmas Eve. We were gladly accommodated to check in as early as 10:00 am. The hotel has provided excellent service. This is a must stay when you visit Singapore. Loved the Singapore sling!

For that feel of grandeur, opulance and exquisite service, everyone should stay at Raffles once in their lives. We felt like we were the only guests in the hotel, had an elegant suite and walked the verandas of this grande dame and enjoyed every moment. Dining in the Tiffin Room and Billiard Room were taste treats with wonderful service. We... More
