Hotel
1. Raffles Singapore
Singapore's grand colonial hotel, opened in 1887 by the Sarkies brothers, now an all-suite property with butler service and the birthplace of the Singapore Sling.
View details — Raffles SingaporeWhere you stay in Singapore shapes your trip, though the MRT makes every central area easy to reach. Marina Bay and the Civic District suit first-time visitors and those wanting landmark hotels: Raffles Singapore, the all-suite colonial classic, The Fullerton Hotel in the former General Post Office, and Marina Bay Sands with its rooftop infinity pool for guests. Naumi, a boutique hotel behind Raffles, offers a more intimate base in the same area.
Chinatown and the river are good for food lovers. PARKROYAL COLLECTION Pickering is known for its sky gardens, Hotel Mono occupies six restored shophouses, and The Warehouse Hotel fills 1895 godowns on the Singapore River near Robertson Quay. Lloyd's Inn offers calm, minimalist rooms near Orchard Road. For neighbourhood character, The Vagabond Club sits between Little India and Kampong Gelam, while Hotel Indigo Katong puts you among the Peranakan food and shophouses of the east coast, close to the airport. Book early for the Formula 1 race weekend and festive periods, when prices rise sharply, and check room sizes at heritage properties, where rooms are often compact.
