Opened in 1887, this flagship Raffles landmark has won more than 70 awards since its re-opening in 1991, after a two-year multi-million dollar restoration that returned the hotel to its original colonial splendour. It is as loved today for its inimitable style and unsurpassed service as it ever was.
The essence of the Raffles experience lies in its 103 suites, set over four wings in fragrant gardens linked by breezy verandahs. Here, residents are pampered in an atmosphere of intimate privacy beneath 14-foot ceilings.
The hotel is home to 18 highly recommended restaurants and bars including the two-storey Long Bar, home of the Singapore Sling, quaffed by Rudyard Kipling and Charlie Chaplin in their time. In the evening, a band plays. One of the few original rooms, the Bar & Billiard Room serves lavish buffet lunches, dinners and Sunday brunch. Afternoon tea at the Tiffin Room is, of course, a social institution.
Also among the fabulous facilities on offer are the Jubilee Hall - a 19th century playhouse that stages dramas, musicals, dances and films, the Raffles Hotel Museum, a culinary academy, and an arcade of 40 speciality shops. The softly lit guests-only spa houses a 24-hour gym.
