Raffles Hotel
A national monument, named after Singapore's founding father, Thomas Stamford Raffles, Raffles Hotel is a high point on the sightseeing trail (see Key Attractions). Still one of the world's most opulent, luxurious and award-winning hotels, it was restored in 1991 with an arcade added, containing shops and restaurants. Residents relive the past in one of its 103 high-ceilinged suites, many with their own veranda and parlour. Royalty, celebrities and writers all stayed here and homage is paid to them at every turn, particularly in the hotel museum. But it is also abundant in modern luxuries, like the Amrita Spa, swimming pool, business centre, nine meeting and function areas, florist, hotel arcade, boardrooms and its Jubilee Hall theatre. There are many options for drinking and dining, from the famous Long Bar, serving up Singapore Slings since the 1920s, and the adjacent Long Bar Steakhouse, to the contemporary New York-style Seah Street Deli and Oriental cuisine at Doc Cheng's.

Hotel 1929
As Chinatown's first HIP boutique hotel, Hotel 1929 has managed to combine designer cool with affordability in an unpretentious part of town. The winner of a host of prestigious awards and rave reviews, it comprises five colonial-era shop-houses that were conjoined to create this 32-room hotel. The result is funky, fresh and finely detailed. Each room is small but individually styled, with retro-style furniture, flat-screen TV, broadband Internet access and a designer shower. Guests can enjoy a rooftop bathtub - and the owner's private collection of designer chairs - or Jacuzzi on the second floor. The lobby area has free Wi-Fi Internet access. Added to that, Chinatown is rapidly becoming gentrified, with good nightspots in addition to its fabulous shopping. Room rate includes breakfast. Also check out their sister hotel New Majestic Hotel (www.newmajestichotel.com) with equally quirky designer kitsch.
