Raffles at Galaxy Macau
Macau · Raffles · Grand Luxury
Raffles at Galaxy Macau opened in 2023 as the largest all-suite Raffles in the world, about 450 suites in two towers joined at every floor by a 15-metre glass airbridge that hovers over the Grand Resort Deck. Hirsch Bedner Associates furnished each suite as the private cabinet of an imaginary Italian Renaissance merchant, with artefacts gathered from Europe and China, a fantasy of the collector at the scale of a Cotai casino resort.

History
Raffles at Galaxy Macau is the Raffles brand’s Macau outpost at Galaxy Macau, presented by the brand as an all-suite “towering spectacle” on Cotai. The official site says it embraces around 450 contemporary suites and describes the interiors as designed by Hirsch Bedner Associates, with a residence-like concept inspired by a wealthy Italian Renaissance merchant. The property opened in 2023 as part of Galaxy Macau’s luxury expansion and emphasizes private butler service, artful interiors, and direct connection to the resort complex. It is notable as the largest all-suites Raffles property in the world and for its views toward Cotai and Old Taipa Village.
The setting
Raffles at Galaxy Macau commands the east promenade of Galaxy Macau on Estrada da Baia da Nossa Senhora da Esperança in Cotai, an all-suite tower inspired by classical Italian palazzo architecture and distinguished by a fifteen-metre glass airbridge connecting its two wings. Opened as part of Galaxy's Phase 3 expansion in 2021, the hotel overlooks the Grand Resort Deck and the rooftops of Old Taipa Village beyond. The Venetian Macao Casino is nine minutes on foot and the historic Taipa Houses are thirteen minutes on foot, while the surrounding Galaxy Promenade offers over two hundred luxury boutiques within the integrated resort — one of the highest concentrations of landmark hotels in Asia.
