Have recently spent five nights at Raffles Singapore everything was wonderful and the staff could not do enough from the moment we arrived to the moment we left.
If you have ever thought of staying there go, you won't be disappointed, I even received a gift on my birthday .
had read some reviews that said the place needed updating Think they are missing the point read the history.

“Pampered by experts”

Raffles Hotel Singapore

Jul 31, 2008
3/3 found this review helpful

It was a big mistake, to make this our overnight stay on the way from London to Sydney. You are pampered by experts and it's expensive, but if you are going to be in lovely Singapore you must stay at the exquisite old Raffles Hotel and you must make it at least 2 nights. Unwind properly by the pool before you dash on. Don't go to the airport in the afternoon and arrive in Sydney at 6 am. You'll waste all the good the Raffles did for you!

Raffles Hotel in Singapore is just the best ever, my husband and i stayed there for 4 nights, we were treated like royalty, 24 hour butler, nothing was any trouble for anyone, food exquisite, first class service, accommodation superb, value for money, we have already booked to go back, sheer luxury.

“Fabulous Service”

Raffles Hotel Singapore

5 of 5 stars
Brighton
Jul 21, 2008
4/4 found this review helpful

We stayed at Raffles for two nights on our way home from Bali.

The hotel exceeded our expectations in that we thought it might be slightly tired and full of tourists. Although it obviously is a tourist attraction in Singapore, if you are staying there you do not feel overrun as you have access to areas of the hotels that tourists just visiting to see it do not.

The service was exceptional and all the staff delightful.

The pool is on the roof, and when we were there rarely had more than a handful of people using it.

Although the restaurants in the hotel are expensive, it is worth eating there at least once just for the experience.

“Absolutely fabulous!”

Raffles Hotel Singapore

5 of 5 stars
Singapore, Singapore
Jul 13, 2008
4/4 found this review helpful

We just got home from a one night stay at the Raffles hotel and I felt compelled to write a review since we had such a wonderful time. Unlike most visitors we actually live in Singapore and have visited the hotel bar when friends come to see us. For over a year I've mentioned to my husband how nice it would be to stay the night... and we did. From the moment we were led to our room until the time we checked out it was 5* service all the way. It really does feel like you have checked into a little slice of history... the rooms are amazing with the ultra high ceilings and old fashioned fixtures. There is 24 hr butler service and will get anything you want. I really enjoyed the pool. I found it was a little oasis inside this busy city. The staff is very attentive without being in your face and everyone is so pleasant. I would definitely recommend staying even one night just for the experience.
