The Ritz-Carlton Residences

The Ritz-Carlton Residences is the residential component of King Power Mahanakhon, the 314-metre tower in Bangkok's central business district. Designed by architect Ole Scheeren and developed by PACE Development, the building went up between 2011 and 2016. Within the 77-storey tower the residences occupy floors 23 to 73 and number 209 homes serviced by Ritz-Carlton. The Ritz-Carlton Residences condominium in Silom, Bangkok is a long-completed freehold building; the hotel, observation deck and shops in the same tower have belonged to the King Power group since 2018.

Location

The address is 114 Narathiwat Ratchanakarin Road in Silom subdistrict, Bang Rak. The road links Silom Road and Sathorn Road, the city's two main business avenues. Bangkok has no beach, so the real asset of this address is transport. The tower is joined by a covered walkway to BTS Chong Nonsi station on the Silom Line, about 150 m away by map and three stops from the Siam interchange. BTS Saint Louis and a BRT rapid-bus stop are roughly 400 m away, and the MRT stations Si Lom and Sam Yan are about a kilometre off. At the foot of the tower is the MahaNakhon CUBE dining pavilion; the lower floors hold King Power retail and the 155-room hotel The Standard, and the roof carries the Mahanakhon SkyWalk observation deck.

Facilities

Owners have a private entrance and lobby, separate from the hotel, and most shared amenities are on the 7th floor and in the residents' club lounge on the 54th.

• outdoor swimming pool with a garden, sun deck and cabanas;
• fitness centre, yoga and Pilates studio, sauna;
• residents' lounge and bar, private dining rooms;
• 16-seat screening room, games room, library and children's area;
• 24-hour concierge and valet parking, doormen, housekeeping and in-residence dining;
• security and CCTV.

Apartments

There are no studios here: the homes have two to five bedrooms, in single-level and duplex layouts, and range from roughly 120–125 to 844 sq m. The project is split into two zones — The Residences on floors 23 to 54 and the Sky Residences on floors 57 to 73, which add higher ceilings, terraces and the glass “skyboxes” that give the tower its pixelated outline. Interiors are by London's David Collins Studio. The city panorama changes with floor and aspect, so it is worth checking unit by unit.

Who it suits

The Ritz-Carlton Residences is chosen by buyers who want a large apartment in central Bangkok with hotel-grade service: as a family home or a city base. Next to the offices of Silom and Sathorn and linked to the BTS, it also works for long-term letting to executives and expatriates. As in any Thai condominium, up to 49% of the total unit area can be registered in foreign freehold ownership (the foreign quota), with the rest held under the Thai quota or through a company.
