Raffles
Hotel Singapore
Raffles
Hotel - the ultimate hotel in Singapore - a must
Somerset
Maugham once called the Raffles Hotel the legendary symbol for "all
the fables of the Exotic East". Other patrons have heaped it with
lavish, if less poetic praise. Indeed more than a hundred years after
it first opened its doors, Raffles Hotel is more legend than hotel and
no visit to Singapore can be considered complete without stopping by at
Raffles.
One of the
world's great hotels, Raffles offers its present-day patrons a totally
unique experience. Embrace history while enjoying the comforts of modern
conveniences. Savour an exceptional tradition of hospitality updated with
the latest and best facilities the world has to offer, and return with
memories of a true classic that will last a lifetime.
Voted the
world's leading independent hotel more than once since its restoration,
the sheer splendour of Raffle's hotel's interiors never fail to impress.
With over
700 exquisite pieces, Raffles has the largest collection of Oriental carpets
in the world. The impressive lobby features three magnificent hand woven
Persian rugs, and carpets are used to their best advantage in suites and
public areas.
Each of the
103 suites at the Raffles Hotel Singapore is a veritable turn of the century
showpiece with its fine carpets, antique furniture and original etchings.
Yet equipped with all the facilities and modern conveniences that business
and leisure travellers would expect from a landmark hotel.
Raffles Hotel
offers ample variety in accommodation. The 86 Suites are charming showpieces
for artifacts and period furniture. The 7 Grand Hotel Suites are a luxurious
indulgence for gusts who want more space. The 10 Personality Suites named
after celebrities who have stayed at Raffles - Charlie Chaplin, Somerset
Maugham and Ava Gardner - to name a few, offer residents a unique opportunity
to be part of history. The business wing with its own special set of rooms
is equipped with every modern convenience for business travellers.
Raffles has
a tradition of fine dining, carefully preserved by its award-winning chefs.
The variety of authentic food is complemented by the gracious ambience
of its specialty restaurants. The focus is on innovation and modern culinary
trends are adapted with customary flair.
The legendary
Long Bar where the world famous Singapore Sling was born and many a merry
musical evening too.
The charming
Bar & Billiard Room is the perfect venue for elegant afternoon tea
or a relaxing game of billiards, and with its fine selection of cigars,
cognacs, malt whiskeys, armagnacs, champagnes, ports and chocolates, it
is a connoisseur's delight.
The Tiffin
Room serves up an array of delectable Indian curries amidst colonial splendour
and is the perfect venue for afternoon high tea.
Editors
Note: One truly should experience a stay at this most amazing
hotel at least once, the memories will cheer you and
stay with you forever.
