Overview of Mandarin Oriental Residences Fifth Avenue at 685 Fifth Avenue

Mandarin Oriental Residences Fifth Avenue, located at 685 Fifth Avenue, represents the hospitality brand's first standalone residential development in the Americas. The building houses just 69 fully furnished residences, each delivered turnkey with everything from high-end bath products to Mandarin Oriental-branded amenities. Positioned steps from Central Park, the development brings the brand's signature hotel service standards to private residential living.

Each residence features European 5-inch white oak chevron flooring with bronze inlay, cove ceilings with integrated lighting by Tillotson Design Associates, and custom kitchens designed by Molteni with fully integrated Miele appliance suites. Bathrooms showcase 22-karat galvanized champagne gold Dornbracht fixtures, radiant heated French Vanilla marble floors, and oversized soaking tubs surrounded by pillowed marble slabs. Units include either Juliet balconies or private balconies, with many offering views of Fifth Avenue and Central Park. The residences come appointed with curated accessories from luxury brands including Georg Jensen, Riedel, Wedgwood China, and Frette linens.

The building's amenities center around Boulud Privé, an exclusive restaurant by Michelin-starred chef Daniel Boulud that serves as the chef's first private residential dining concept. A residents-only rooftop features a pool overlooking Central Park, while the wellness facilities include a spa with treatment rooms and salons, plus a state-of-the-art fitness center outfitted by Technogym. The service offering mirrors luxury hotel standards, with options for in-residence dining, housekeeping, turn-down service, personal chefs, sommeliers, private butlers, and even personal shopping services through Saks Fifth Avenue.

What distinguishes this development is its hotel-residential hybrid model, where residents enjoy private ownership combined with on-demand luxury services typically reserved for five-star hotel guests. The building operates more like an exclusive private club than a traditional condominium, with Crestron home automation systems and comprehensive concierge services that can arrange everything from pet care to in-residence spa treatments.
