This is one of those hotels that is truly unique, however with the uniqueness comes a sence that you are actually staying in a bit of a tourist destination. The bar is nice though, but again bit of expensive and very touristy. But i enjoyed it none the less. Hotel is lovely and i could not fault anything. As mentioned... more

Its simple. This is one of the best hotels in the world - you MUST stay in this hotel. I can honestly not complain about a single aspect of this hotel, everything was quite simply perfect! I agree this is an expensive hotel however I am more than happy to pay for the outstanding service and quality of food which... more

Raffles is the oldest hotel in Singapore which is its main attraction. So if you dont mind the small CRT TV's, a useless internet service, a gym which is very small and a small swimming pool, then this is the place to stay.

Nice hotel, nice rooms but overpriced - you obviously pay for the name but probably worth staying there once for the experience more

We stayed at Raffles in June 2006, when attending a conference at the Suntec Centre, which is very close by. We fell in love with it and have been looking for any excuse to return ever since. We finally made it in late February 2008 and nostalgia had not distorted our memories. From the moment you step from the car... more

During January & February we stayed at the Chedi in Muscat, The Observatory in Sydney, Palazzo Versace on Brisbane's Gold Coast, Hamilton Island's beach club, and finally Raffles. Raffles was simply head and shoulders above the others, word's cannot do justice to this great place, I think you have to experience Raffles for yourself, even if it's for one night....... more
