For more than a century, Raffles Hotels & Resorts have hosted legendary guests and historic moments across the world. Since the opening of Raffles Singapore in 1887, all Raffles Hotels & Resorts properties have spoiled each and every guest entering its doors.

Each Raffles property boasts treasured suites drawing inspiration from its surroundings or from some other historic moment, immersing guests in a different era altogether. Whether at the original Raffles hotel in Singapore or its newest property in London, these special suites transport guests to an entirely different world.
