Discover how Raffles redefines luxury across the world’s most iconic destinations!
For over a century, Raffles has been analogous to luxury and sophistication. From the historic halls of Raffles Singapore to contemporary spaces in Paris, Istanbul, Dubai, Udaipur, etc., Raffles has set a new benchmark in hospitality. Each and every property is as elegant as it gets and offers exceptional service, designed to cater to travellers seeking more than just a place to stay.
Two of Raffles’ latest properties, Raffles Doha and Raffles Seychelles, carry on this legacy while introducing fresh perspectives on luxury. From Doha’s cultural richness or the serene beauty in Seychelles, these places promise a stay that’s both indulgent and unforgettable.
Raffles Doha
Located in the heart of the striking Katara Towers, Raffles Doha feels surreal with the dramatic poise of its skyward arch. The hotel’s grand lobby features the world’s largest hotel kaleidoscope with 974 screens and makes it clear that this is no ordinary place.
Each of the all-suite accommodations comes with personalised butler service, state-of-the-art technology, and thoughtfully curated amenities. The maxi bar, stocked with premium beverages and snacks, is just one of many touches that make your stay feel effortless.
