"Though celebrating its 125th birthday in 2012, the hotel is still a magnet for A-listers (Elizabeth Taylor, Diane von Furstenberg, and Barry Diller have all stayed here)."

Rough Guide
"The modern extension is a mixed bag, but the Raffles remains refreshingly low-rise and still has colonial-era charm in spades."

"The new management has refurbished all rooms to their former glory, plus much of the hotel's public spaces have been renovated, including the airy atrium lobby."

Fodor's
"Once appropriately called the Glass Hotel, the Concorde has a glass canopy that curves down from the ninth story over the entrance, facing southeast for good fortune."
Lonely Planet
"The atrium lobby, with its glass-panel elevators and line drawings, is beginning to look dated, but this is still a decent hotel."
Star Service
"Rack rates here are a joke, but discounts are almost always available, providing arrivals, primarily young Asian travelers, with reasonable value. "
