About Raffles
Raffles Singapore opened in 1887 and the Singapore Sling was created at its bar. Accor acquired the brand in 2016, and it sits at the very top of the group's range alongside Fairmont. Accor owns it, and the Singapore hotel is a protected national monument, so its restoration in 2019 was carried out under heritage supervision.
