Singapore Raffles Hotel

Singapore Raffles Hotel | Urbane Nomads

Overview

Few hotels can look back on more than a century of legendary service to so many distinguished guests and fewer still have preserved their past with a more loving attention to detail.

Works well as a base for a luxury trip to Singapore.

Accommodation

Courtyard Suites

The Courtyard Suites are among situated close to the lush flora of the hotel, lending these suites an unmatched ambience of tranquility

Palm Court Suites

The Palm Court Suites borders one side of the Hotel’s main building. Simplicity and serenity is implicit in the Palm Court, with ample walkways of crushed pebbles and rows of tall palm trees lining the sides of the garden. The Palm Court's large expanse of greenery sets the sublime mood for all of the Hotel's facilities and its use is restricted to the Hotel residents.

Personality Suites

12 of the 103 suites at Raffles Hotel have been named after personalities who were associated with the Hotel in its early heyday. These suites are distinguished by the special memorabilia displayed within each one, acquired when the Hotel was closed for restoration from March 1989 to September 1991.

Ranging from Charlie Chaplin (whose stay is also commemorated at the Hanoi Sofitel Metropole), Ava Gardner, Noel Coward( isn't there a suite named after him in Bangkok's Oriental) to Pablo Neruda, the range of personalities who have graced the Raffles Hotel makes this hotel the most pedigreed and interesting in town.

Grand Hotel Suites

The five suites in the Main Building are known as the Grand Hotel Suites. They are distinguished by their premier location in the Hotel, their spaciousness and elegant appointments, and the quality of the antiques and artwork displayed.

Presidential Suites

The two largest suites in the Main Building are known as the Presidential Suites. They are distinguished by their premier location in the Hotel, their spaciousness and elegant appointments, and the quality of the antiques and artwork displayed.
