Raffles Hotel Singapore

Singapore, Singapore  · 

Overview

Raffles first opened in 1887 and its whitewashed façade, shaded verandas and palm-lined courtyards have made it one of Asia's most recognisable hotels. A careful restoration completed in 2019 refreshed every suite while keeping the old charm.

The hotel sits on Beach Road in the civic district, close to the Marina Bay waterfront, museums and the Esplanade.
