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.

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.

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.

The term “Grand Hotel” is a very special one indeed It conjures up images of elegance and grace, gleaming brass and soothing service. A Grand Hotel is noted for its charm, its history and, of course its legends.

Whatever its architectural style, a Grand Hotel has the aura so characteristic of all things beautiful. At the same time, it has its own unique character; a Grand Hotel must be true to its surroundings and have its own eccentricities.

The remaining five Grand Hotel Suites, take their inspiration from the romance of travel in a bygone age. One is named after a once grand Singapore hotel – Raffles’ greatest rival – Hotel de L’Europe. The others are conferred place names now consigned to history books – Cathay, Temasek, Golden Chersonese and Straits Settlements.

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.

Tiffin Room

Tiffin, properly defined as a light mid-day meal, has long been a Raffles tradition. Although tiffin curry has been served here since 1899, the Hotel’s main dining room has only officially been named the Tiffin Room since 1976. A restaurant run by the Sarkies from the 1890s at Raffles Place was known as the Raffles Tiffin Rooms. For most of this century a mild chicken curry was one of the few Asian mainstays on the hotel’s daily menu as the partaking of Sunday tiffin curry was an essential aspect of colonial life.

Writers Bar

Located in the Lobby of the hotel, this bar is a tribute to the writers who have stayed at the hotel or have written about it.
