Raffles Hotels and Resorts has launched a global campaign, 'The Butler Did It,' focused on the brand's Butler Service and its contribution to creating exceptional guest experiences. The campaign includes a brand film featuring "actor Waris Ahluwalia, fashion icon Robert Rabensteiner, and model May Siu as guests, with model Tim Easton in the role of the Butler."
The film presents various services offered by the titular Butler, such as "organizing private tours of the Palm Garden Fountain, managing in-room dining requests, booking poolside cabanas, and arranging tickets to events," often in anticipation of guests' needs. This initiative aligns with Raffles' ongoing global expansion, including recent openings in Jaipur, London, Boston, and Bahrain. 'The Butler Did It' campaign aims to highlight the significance of the Butler Service as a key element in delivering the distinctive and sophisticated experiences for which Raffles is known.
