This time I came to Singapore for a Trip and stayed at the Raffles Hotel, which I had always wanted to stay in. It is a national treasure-level hotel with a history of more than 130 years. As soon as I entered the hotel, I saw a large green garden, white buildings and typical British colonial corridors. The Sikh doorman in British uniform opened the door to greet me. When I walked into the lobby, I saw a huge crystal chandelier and marble floor.
The guest rooms are arranged in a three-story townhouse, surrounded by a tropical garden in the center. I stayed in the Plam Court Suite 716sqt, which consists of a living room, guest room, bathroom and 2 terraces. There were historical books in the room. The butler sent fruits and handwritten cards as welcome gifts, and introduced the history and stories of the entire hotel, telling me that it is open 24 hours a day. The room is spacious and uses intelligent integrated services. The room card is electronic induction, wrapped in cowhide, and engraved with the hotel logo.
The living room and bedroom are each equipped with a TV and iPad. The iPad can control the lights, TV and telephone in the room, and can also view the restaurants and service items in the hotel. The bathroom products come from the old British salon fragrance ORMONDEJAYNE. The light wood fragrance is in line with the temperament of the hotel, and there are luxurious details everywhere. The hotel also gave 2 glasses of local specialty wine "Singapore Sling". The long bar of Raffles is the birthplace of this wine. When leaving the bar, stepping on the peanut shells on the ground, it retains the original tradition.
There are many restaurants and boutiques in the hotel. You can buy Rolex and McLaren 12 watches without leaving the house. For lunch, I chose the Italian restaurant Osteria BBR. The caviar scrambled eggs and ham platter with champagne was very satisfying. The outdoor swimming pool in the hotel is very private. It is also a good choice to exercise and relax in the sun and beautiful scenery after dinner.
