SINGAPORE'S Grand Dame, The Raffles Hotel, will introduce more suites and additional suite categories as it aims to attract a new segment of travellers.
The iconic hotel, which is currently undergoing restoration, will see the total number of suites go up from 103 to 115 when it re-opens in the second half of 2018. This is thanks to the reconfiguration of existing suites as well as freed-up space from boardrooms being converted into rooms.
