Raffles Boston is a state of mind—an iconic legacy in motion, reimagined for a new era. Since the Raffles Brand founding in Singapore in 1887, Raffles has set the standard for gracious hospitality, cultural curiosity, and legendary service. In Boston, that legacy comes to life as the brand’s North American flagship, blending timeless elegance with contemporary hotel craft in the heart of one of the world’s most storied cities.
At Raffles Boston, our people are the soul of everything we do. We are custodians of culture, champions of community, and passionate stewards of meaningful guest experiences. Guided by respect, integrity, belonging, and excellence, we create an environment where every interaction is thoughtful and every moment leaves a lasting impression. Here, guests arrive as visitors, leave as friends, and return as family.
The cornerstone of the Raffles experience, the Raffles Butler encompasses a spectrum of responsibilities from pre-arrival, arrival, in-stay, departure and post-stay arrangements for guests. Reporting to the Butler Manager/Head Butler/Director of Front Office, the role ensures that the highest level of hospitality and brand standards are delivered. As the primary curator of the guest journey, the Raffles Butler will act as the epicenter of the department, ensuring presence at all times, providing a seamless guest experience to all residents. Mainly responsible for meet and greet, arrival escort, hotel and room orientation and touching tables – integrating diverse operational functions into a cohesive experience. The role also involves porterage and delivery/pickup of guest luggage and the safekeeping and storage of guest belongings. A well-rounded and skillful individual, he or she possesses general understanding in front office, housekeeping and food & beverage, spa, concierge and other touch points in the hotel.
With a purpose to preserve the guest experience, the butler is responsible for personalizing interactions in person, by phones or chat with the aim to guide and assist clients throughout the guest journey, while also being intuitive to guest’s needs and wants. An ambassador of the hotel, he or she will take the lead in ensuring all guests are met on arrival with a constant follow up during the stay until after check-out. Far more than a service provider, the Butler is an intuitive diplomat who possesses the emotional intelligence to interpret unspoken needs and the confidence to own the guest experience entirely. As the custodian of guest resolution, they approach challenges with a spirit of recovery, in a quest for magic, and transforming moments of friction into lasting trust and a dedicated guardianship of the Raffles promise.
