After reporting itself as being pleased with the response to a preview event in Singapore last month, Thailand-based real estate developer Country Group Development and Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts have officially announced plans for its luxury hotel and residential project situated along Bangkok’s Chao Phraya River.
The development is planned to offer a world-class waterfront experience and set a new standard in luxury. It will be home to the new Four Seasons Hotel Bangkok at Chao Phraya River and Four Seasons Private Residences Bangkok at Chao Phraya River.
The hotel will feature more than 300 rooms and suites while The Private Residences will consist of more than 350 all-corner luxury units in a 73 storey tower.
The low-density, mixed-use development will span more than 350 meters of waterfront across 35-2-68 Rai, and it is destined to become one of Bangkok’s most exclusive.
Ben Taechaubol, Chief Executive Officer of Country Group Development, said: “Country Group is exceptionally proud to be collaborating with Four Seasons to develop one of Bangkok’s most iconic hotel and private residences, demonstrating our long-term commitment to the people of Thailand. Through our collaboration with Four Seasons, our aim is for Chao Phraya Estate to redefine the waterfront experience in Bangkok and Asia.
“Our contribution to the revival of the Chao Phraya River and skyline of Bangkok reflects our passion and respect for our city’s rich culture and history and our desire to see it be renowned as one of the greatest urban waterways in the world.
“After undertaking extensive relocation efforts and securing one of Bangkok’s last remaining undeveloped large parcels of riverside land in the central business district, our aim is to create a meaningful, luxury experience that is unmatched in the market. In aligning with Four Seasons, a global icon in luxury hospitality and utilizing world-class design teams, we are excited to set a new benchmark for luxury in Bangkok.”
Michael Crawford, President, Asia Pacific, Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts, added: “We’re thrilled to be working with Country Group on the historic development of this unique and exquisite Bangkok landmark located on the banks of the Chao Phraya River.
“Bangkok continues to be a destination of choice for business and leisure travellers and this property will embody our commitment to innovation and exceeding the expectations of our discerning guests.”
Four Seasons Hotel Bangkok at Chao Phraya River and Four Seasons Private Residences Bangkok at Chao Phraya River are due for completion at the end of 2018.The Residential Sales Gallery is set to launch later this month at Soi Charoen Krung, 64 Charoen Krung Road, Bangkok.
Following the Singapore preview DDproperty.com reported prices for units at the Four Seasons Residences in Bangkok will start in the region of THB25 million, but will likely rise once the official opening has taken place.
