The spa treatments were indulgent, but fabulous. It was a treat to swim in the pool, looking up towards nearby skyscrapers, compared with the lovely "bungalow" feeling of Raffles.
This time we took the Historical Tour of Raffles, lead by one of their Resident Historians, Nazir Yusof. He was exceptionally knowledgable and brought Raffle's past and present, to life. Thank you Nazir.
Thank you Raffles.

This hotel was a last-minute booking, and it exceeded my expectations. From the stunning architecture and rich history of the building to the outstanding service, everything was spot on.
The room was clean, comfortable, and had everything I needed. Most importantly, the location was perfect for stepping out to nearby meetings.
I even managed to steal a few moments between work to enjoy a refreshing mocktail on the beautiful outdoor terrace.
I’d happily return on my next visit.
