Praise
Every suite – there are no standard rooms at Raffles – exudes classic charm, featuring teakwood floors, vintage furnishings and elegant four-poster beds.
Wanderlust, April 2025Raffles is a shimmering Singaporean icon for sybarites who like the opulence dial cranked right up.
Harper's Bazaar, June 2024More than twice the age of the independent state of Singapore, Raffles hold a unique position: it's not just a national monument, but a global treasure.
Tatler, January 2024To stay at Raffles Singapore is to immerse oneself into the golden age of travel. Whether being welcomed by the hotel’s liveried Sikh doormen, strolling along the polished teak verandas overlooking tropical gardens, whiling the day away in one of the 115 atmospheric suites or exploring the plentiful dining options, a stay is sure to inspire lifelong memories of luxury and tradition.
50 Best, November 2023Though celebrating its 125th birthday in 2012, the hotel is still a magnet for A-listers (Elizabeth Taylor, Diane von Furstenberg, and Barry Diller have all stayed here). And the bar still mixes a mean Singapore Sling.
Travel + Leisure, August 2018If you have the budget for just one indulgence, make it a stay at Raffles Singapore... It's a 126-year-old colonial masterpiece that was subject to a massive restoration project completed in 1991.
The Telegraph, April 2017The British statesman, historian and zoologist who founded modern Singapore in the 19th century would surely appreciate the mother-of-pearl inlaid tables and the prints taken from his The History Of Java on the walls of his namesake two-bedroom suite.
