Raffles with new hotels in China and the Maldives

Raffles with new hotels in China and the Maldives

Raffles Shenzhen and Raffles Maldives Meradhoo elevate the brand’s legacy, delivering unrivaled luxury and bespoke hospitality in two of the world’s most desirable destinations.

Known globally for its heritage of refined service and timeless sophistication, Raffles Hotels & Resorts has added two exceptional properties to its growing collection: Raffles Shenzhen in China’s dynamic tech capital, and Raffles Maldives Meradhoo, an exclusive sanctuary in the Indian Ocean.

Raffles Shenzhen

redefines urban luxury, soaring above the city from the upper stories of a 72-level skyscraper within the distinguished One Shenzhen Bay enclave. During our recent stay, we experienced expansive accommodations—168 guestrooms and a curated selection of serviced residences—each offering sweeping vistas over Shenzhen Bay and out toward Hong Kong. The property impresses with its Michelin-starred dining, state-of-the-art wellness facilities, and the iconic Raffles Butler service, which continues to set the gold standard for intuitive, discreet attention.

Set at the untouched southern edge of the Maldives archipelago,

Raffles Maldives Meradhoo

 delivers a private island escape that feels worlds away from everyday life. Surrounded by dazzling turquoise waters and vibrant coral reefs, this resort features 21 beachfront villas and 16 overwater sanctuaries, each designed for absolute seclusion and comfort. Arriving via a seamless domestic flight and private speedboat transfer, guests are welcomed by signature Raffles Butlers, dedicated Marine Butlers for curated underwater adventures, and personal chefs crafting bespoke culinary journeys. Families benefit from tailored Children’s Butlers, ensuring every detail is anticipated.
