This luxurious hotel, opened in 1887, is one of the cities’ most renowned features and is named after Sir Stamford Raffles, the founder of modern Singapore.

Exciting new dining concepts helmed by celebrity chefs will be offered along with refreshed recreational facilities and the holistic sanctuary of a new spa. Signature highlights such as the Singapore Sling at Long Bar and the traditional English Afternoon Tea experience will continue to delight guests. The North Indian curries at Tiffin Room, our Steakhouse, a reimagined Writers Bar and enchanting Lobby Lounge will also be part of the dining experience. Step into our storied hallways and take a historical tour with our team of resident historians to learn all about Raffles’ glorious heydays.
