Raffles Hotel Singapore
General Description
Raffles Hotel, the legendary symbol for all "the fables of the
Exotic East" is a travelers paradise with 103 Suites, 18 distinctive
restaurants and bars and an illustrious history dating back to the 19th
century. Patronized by nobility and royalty for over a century, Raffles
Hotel is more legend than hotel, and is one of the most memorable
experience travel can offer in today's world. Declared a National
Monument in 1987, the hotel has grown from strength to strength. With its
restoration and reopening in 1991, Raffles Hotel today stands as a jewel in
the crown of Singapore's hospitality industry, renowned and loved for
its inimitable style and unsurpassed excellence in service and facilities.
In multicultural Singapore it is not surprising that the visionary founders
of Raffles Hotel were a quartet of enterprising Armenian brothers: Martin,
Tigran, Aviet and Arshak Sarkies. Raffles Hotel opened in 1887 in a rather
sombre-looking old bungalow known as the Beach House. It was named after
Sir Stamford Raffles, the founder of modern Singapore. Tropical suites and
sola topis were as much a part of Raffles Hotel's early style as
bentwood tables and rattan chairs. Over the years the hotel has evolved
into one of the world's most beloved grand hotels and welcomed
innumerable celebrities, writers and royalty. Raffles Hotel is
Singapore's most graceful landmark with a total of 103 suites. The
