It's good there are options.
However, the meeting page indicates that Raffles is the main hotel.

Unlikely to be the Raffles hotel itself. I guess the conference is at
the Raffles City convention centre which has 2 hotels: the Fairmont &
the Swisshotel. Rates are lower than the super luxurious Raffles
itself, which is just across the road.
Right, that's where ICANN met a few years ago. The Fairmont and
Swissotel are directly connected to the conference centre. I don't
recall what the
rates
were but they weren't out of line with other Fairmont and Swissotels
where we've met.
I do recommend making the trip across the road to Long's Bar in the
Raffles
hotel for the original Singapore Sling.
