“Out of this World!”

Raffles Hotel Singapore

Aug 4, 2008
3/3 found this review helpful

This is simply the best hotel that I have ever stayed at. My wife and I stayed here for 1 night of our honeymoon. We had stayed elsewhere in Singapore for 2 nights then came here the night before flying to Bali. I just wish we had done 2 nights. We stayed in the Charlie Chaplin suite (personality suite) and the room just took our breath away! Stylish, high-tech and colonial all mixed together. Our butler (Bong) arranged a big surprise for us in our room upon returning from a night out. This consisted of rose petal strewn floors, a bubble bath already ran and topped up with hot water until our arrival back at the room, strawberries dipped in chocolate etc. It was a fantastic....and unnecessary extra which just personified the general customer service of the place! When you see the prices initially you will gasp, but trust me it is worth it! It is not often that you will ever be treated like this! I cannot wait to go back to Singapore.....and Raffles particularly!

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!

“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.
