Description
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 ussurpassed excellence in service and facilities.

In multi-cultural Singapore it is not surprising that the visionary founders of Raffles Hotel were a quartet of exterprising Armenian brothers: Martin Tigran, Aviet and Arshak Sarkies.

Raffles hotel opened in 1887 in a rather sombre-looking old bungalow known as the 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.
