Named after the founding father of the nation of Singapore, Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles, the flagship hotel of the Raffles group<\/a> is an institution of luxury in the country. Located in the marina area of the city, the hotel is a short 20-minute drive from the Singapore Changi Airport and is surrounded by some of the most important landmarks of the country, such as the Sultan Mosque, the National Museum of Singapore, and the Sri Thendauthapani Temple among others.<\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n \r\n<\/section>\n\n\n

Housed within an 1887 property \u2013 one of the most historic and significant building in the city-state \u2013 the Raffles Singapore\u2019s recent 2-year renovation brought the establishment up to date with the demands of the 21st century-guest, while also retaining much of its Old-World charm that makes it such a unique address.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once a favored destination for the likes of Rudyard Kipling, Elizabeth Taylor, and other Hollywood stars, the Raffles Singapore continues to emanate the kind of atmosphere and service that makes it an experience through time altogether. From its Colonial fa\u00e7ade to its grand three-story lobby filled with vintage pieces and antiquities (and an 8,214-piece crystal chandelier) the hotel definitely earns its status as a National Monument. However, when it comes to the 115 suites of the hotel, the mood is a sensible mix of vintage and contemporary style, with modern four-poster beds, parquet floorings with gorgeously embroidered rugs, and a stunning marble bathroom with a freestanding bathtubs and dual vanity sinks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Raffles Singapore is also home to no less than 9 restaurants and bars, including the beautiful Butcher\u2019s Block, the elegant La Dame de Pic, and the OSTERIA BBR by Alain Ducasse. On the wellness front, the hotel boasts a seven treatment-room spa located in the Raffles Arcade, with an extensive menu of treatments with products from Ormond Jayne.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
