Raffles Hotels & Resorts is a collection of luxury hotels and resorts worldwide, each distinguished by its elegance and residential charm. Each hotel is a landmark in its respective city, positioned at the top of its local market and rated among the very best in the world.
Raffles Hotels & Resorts was formed in 1989 to restore, redevelop and manage the world-famous Raffles Hotel. In 1996, the Raffles brand was expanded beyond Raffles Hotel Singapore, and since then, the group has distinguished itself by being a leader in terms of quality and in consistently delivering the Raffles promise to provide the best. Raffles Hotels & Resorts is consistently ranked among the world's top 10 hotel brands in the annual Condé Nast Traveler Business Travel Awards.
Unique with its own distinct personality, each Raffles hotel is a landmark positioned at the top of its respective destination and rated amongst the very best in the world. Its relentless pursuit of service excellence has earned Raffles hotels and resorts many international accolades, such as "Top 100 Hotels of the World", "World's Best Places to Stay" and "Top 25 Hotels in Asia".
Raffles Hotels & Resorts is owned by Fairmont Raffles Hotels International Inc, a leading global hotel company with over 85 hotels worldwide under the Raffles, Fairmont and Swissôtel brands. The Company also owns Fairmont and Raffles branded Residences, Estates and luxury private residence club properties.
The Traveller's Palm The culture of service excellence is embodied in our logo - the Traveller's Palm. The fine detailed drawing of the Traveller's Palm is the work of top British penmaster, David Horridge.
A native of Madagascar, it was introduced to Singapore in the early 1900s and became a favourite in landscaped gardens island-wide, including Raffles Hotel. The leaves of the Traveller's Palm are known to come to rest in an 'east-west' direction and thus have served as an informal compass for travellers making their way home after long journeys. Residents of Raffles hotels and resorts are greeted by our staff, who each wears a Traveller's Palm-design pin. It is an indication to our residents that they have found their way home.
The Raffles Hotels & Resorts Credo "A successful hotel is something beyond its location, its decor or its amenities. A successful hotel is a place where you are cared for so well that you want to come back."
