Philip H TripAdvisor review

We stayed at Raffles Hotel on Praslin 8 years ago so it was nice to return and we enjoyed our 8 day stay. The hotel is in a stunning position, the rooms are built up the hillside with magnificent views. However, the rooms are a bit tired, while the rooms are still nice some refreshment is required (mould is on the tiles beneath both of the bathroom taps). The refurbishments and building works are annoying, a bit of an inconvenience. The pools and beach area are lovely. The food is lovely, but the service at breakfast was very inconsistent. The worst part of our stay was our butler who was absolutely and completely hopeless!! Sorry, but we gave up with Mahmoud who was useless, and we spoke to Laura who was brilliant...thank you Laura. The buggy service was inconsistent. I had 2 superb massages. Servicing of our room was inconsistent, one afternoon we returned at 4.00pm and our room had not been touched so we phoned, someone came immediately, but just made the bed and changed the towels. In our opinion the hotel management needs to have better control of organisation in the hotel, there are too many things that need improvement, standards have dropped which is down to the manager. But we still enjoyed our stay, the Seychelles are stunningly beautiful.

Gornikos Families - TripAdvisor review

We have stayed in Raffles during renovation but it didn’t disturb us at all. Only once while we were on the main pool we heard something but in Villa, restaurants and beach nothing. Villa is spacious and clean, has everything what u need. Our villa was with panoramic view—> incredible:) Beach small but beautiful, u can always find place and there are some water sports to do. All People that working in hotel are great, perfect service especially Mohamed and Niha that were serving us Breakfast which is also great. Buggy is always there and u can easly move. In conclusion perfect staying and I would like to come back soon:)

olgaros TripAdvisor review

I was with my husband at Raffles Hotel in The Seychelles at the beginning of October. Unfortunately, the travel agency “One Luxury” didn’t warn us that renovations were being carried throughout the hotel. The last few days there was so much noise even on the beach, that it was impossible to relax and switch of. Sushi bar moved into a gym and from that moment, there was practically no gym anymore. The garden located on the hotel grounds was quite neglected and very unkempt, which is certainly not in keeping with the standard of this hotel and the price of staying in it. Breakfast and dinner were very modest, the choice was small and absolutely not up to the standard of such a hotel. The garden of villa 112 were we lived was also neglected and had a very unattractive appearance. But we were really lucky with our butler Simon - he was simply the best and tried to do everything to solve all the problems. He is a Best Butler ever! I also want to highlight the individual restaurant stuff, such as Neha - a girl from India and Cecile from the Philippines. Neha is not only very pretty and has a striking appearance like a photo model, but also very courteous, attentive and simply great! Cecile is very experienced, attractive and very professional. All in all it was okay, but the quality offered did not correspond to the price demanded.

Dear Olga, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience at Raffles Seychelles. We sincerely apologize for the inconveniences you faced during your stay, particularly regarding the renovations and the impact they had on your relaxation. We understand how disruptive noise can be, especially in a serene environment like ours. We appreciate your feedback regarding the dining options and the state of the gardens. Rest assured, we are committed to maintaining high standards throughout our property, and your observations will be taken into account as we work towards enhancing our services and facilities. It is heartening to hear about your positive interactions with Simon, Neha, and Cecile. We will certainly share your kind words with them, as they exemplify the level of service we strive to provide. Thank you once again for your insights. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future under improved circumstances. Best regards, Raffles Seychelles
