Hotel living on a daily basis
What is it about staying at hotels that makes us feel like we’re on top of the world?
Whether it’s the room service, valet parking or the exclusive amenities you love best, many would probably agree that hotel stays allow us to feel pampered. With a plethora of personalized offerings to choose from, hotels give us easy escapes without having to venture far from our urban realities. Hotels are so well-loved in today’s modern world that they have become the benchmark of luxury residences everywhere.
If you dream of living in a hotel full-time, perhaps it’s time to consider moving into a hotel-inspired condominium. Here are some examples of international residences that offer hotel conveniences for everyday living.
The Towers of Waldorf Astoria
The Waldorf Astoria Residences of New York features Art Deco elements which have long been associated with the original hotel that stood in its place.
Boasting of a rich history and historic architecture, the original Waldorf Astoria had two buildings built in the late 19th century. It was actually borne out of the rivalry between two wealthy cousins competing to own the most opulent hotel in New York. When the cousins patched things up between them, they teamed together and eventually built the hotel in its current Park Avenue location.
Catering to numerous American legends such as Frank Sinatra and Ella Fitzgerald, it became the unofficial “palace of New York” in the 1950s.
Finding inspiration in the hotel’s iconic architecture, the French interior designer Jean-Louis Deniot took it upon himself to create the residential wing of the current structure. The 1,400 guest rooms were turned into 375 private residences, while 124 floor plan variations were implemented in these posh residences.
Many of the new homes feature private terraces that provide unhindered views of the world-famous New York skyline. Fine details such as customized wood cabinetry, heated floors and rain shower rooms maintain hotel standards for the residents of the building. The interiors of each home remain consistent with the Art Deco style of the building with their distinct geometric patterns, vintage light fixtures and stucco patterns.
Amenities in the residential wing remain consistent with the brand’s luxurious image. A gorgeous 25-meter swimming pool overlooking Park Avenue can be used by the residents. Homeowners can also access private saunas, steam rooms, private fitness studios and gender- specific wellness lounges. A private dining area and kitchen can provide the perfect entertainment venue for guests. In addition, the Monte Carlo Gaming Room and the Stage & Screen Theater can provide exclusive leisure for residents looking to unwind.
Maison 77 Clarendon
With its limited 16 suite offerings, the Maison 77 Clarendon is set to provide luxury living for a select few in Toronto.
A low-rise luxury residence is set to rise in the prestigious South Forest Hill neighborhood of Toronto, Canada.
Maison 77 Clarendon gives a new meaning to high-end living with its floor-to-ceiling windows, high ceilings and spacious private dwellings. With each purchase of a unit, residents can avail themselves of two parking spots, two private storage lockers, and exclusive access to the building’s amenities.
The condominium will provide a mailroom, cocktail bar, catering kitchen, massage treatment rooms, and private dining rooms to its residents among other features. Pets are also welcome in the building, with a pet grooming room to pamper fur babies. The luxury experience is completed by a 24-hour concierge and porter service which are complemented by valet parking for the tenants.
Designed by the firm of Architect Richard Wengle, a Canadian designer notable for its excellence in designing classical elements, the condominium will offer a limited number of 16 suites. It is set to be completed in 2024.
