A timeless symbol of colonial Singapore, Raffles has been updated and refreshed for the modern age. Its gracious legacy is reflected in the spacious, elegant lobby, Amrita Spa and the 24-hour pool, bar and health club. Its 103 high-ceilinged suites bring modern amenities and luxurious decoration to the splendour of a by-gone age, whilst the signature Presidential Suites offer spacious living spaces opening onto cool balconies.
Raffles is blessed with 16 distinctive restaurants and bars, including the famous Long Bar, the birthplace of the Singapore Sling. Our favourite, the Raffles Courtyard, serves Asian seafood cuisine in a wonderful alfresco setting flanked by soaring white arches and tropical palms.
