KUALA LUMPUR: Richmond Asia Group has appointed Frasers Hospitality as the hotel management company for the hotel suites at Richmond Mayor, an upcoming integrated mixed-use development in the thriving neighbourhood of Johor Baru.
Nestled in Mount Austin, one of Johor Baru’s rapidly growing neighbourhoods, Richmond Mayor comprises hotel suites, premium lifestyle mall, office and serviced suites, as well as serviced residences.
Designed to meet the evolving needs of modern urban living, the integrated mixed-use development aims to become a key destination for a diverse spectrum of buyers – from property investors and homeowners to business owners and companies as well as travellers and hotel guests.
Encapsulated in the development is the distinguished semicircular arched glass facade incorporated as part of Richmond Mayor’s architectural embellishment and an open-air plaza, inspired by the European allure, inviting the community to soak in the serene experience amidst the vibrant neighbourhood of Mount Austin.
On top of the premier lifestyle mall which features an exquisite selection of retailers and tenants including supermarket and eateries, a strategic curation of wellness-focused services forms a holistic health and wellness ecosystem within this integrated development.
These elements give Richmond Mayor a distinctive edge, not only as an ideal base for business pursuits, but also a preferred destination for leisure and cosmopolitan living – presenting pivotal opportunities and appeal across a broad range of buyer segments.
“Richmond Mayor blends sophisticated architecture with meaningful conveniences – from premium lifestyle mall to holistic wellness services.
“Every element is curated to offer a refined, well-balanced urban experience. It is this combination that makes Richmond Mayor an ideal place to live, work, and invest – the rhythm of everyday life,” said Richmond Asia Group chief executive officer Aaron Yap.
Richmond Mayor further elevates its value proposition by partnering with Frasers Hospitality as the appointed hotel management company for the development. This strategic collaboration brings world-class hospitality expertise to Richmond Mayor, ensuring that residents and guests alike are able to experience the global standard of service and comfort throughout their stay. Frasers Hospitality, a strategic business unit of Frasers Property, has built a 27-year track record as a leader in the lodging segment, managing more than 100 properties across over 20 countries in Asia Pacific, Europe, the Middle East and Africa.
With decades of experience in hospitality management, Frasers Hospitality manages an award-winning brand portfolio which includes Capri by Fraser, Fraser Suites, Fraser Residence, Fraser Place and Modena by Fraser.
Under Frasers Hospitality’s design-led brand, Capri by Fraser, the hotel suites will feature 275 stylish studios, one- and two-bedroom apartments complemented by a range of facilities including an all-day dining restaurant, resident’s lounge, swimming pool, gym and meeting spaces.
Opening in 2030, the property is designed to cater to business travellers and families seeking a stay in Mount Austin, one of Johor Baru’s most dynamic districts.
“Working with Frasers Hospitality as the hotel management for Richmond Mayor will certainly position this residence as a compelling investment choice and ideal accommodation for investors and residents.
“I am confident that our development shall be in excellent hands with Frasers Hospitality, offering their global hospitality service to the residents and guests at our residence,” said Yap. The signing of the Hotel Management Agreement (HMA) with Frasers Hospitality signifies the group’s continued commitment in hospitality-led investment strategy.
Following the recent hotel management partnership with Barcelo Hotels and Resorts for Richmond Estelar, a 199-exclusive hotel suites development in Kuala Lumpur’s “Golden Triangle”, the group continues to reinforce its vision of delivering more than just property developments, but high-yield, lifestyle-driven assets with strong long-term value.
With Frasers Hospitality’s strong track record in delivering modern, lifestyle-driven hotel experiences across Asia and beyond, Richmond Mayor is set to redefine sophisticated urban living – blending the comfort of home with the finesse of hotel-style living.
The inaugural phase of the development, Tower A, will mark the debut of Richmond Mayor. Encompassing a hotel, office and serviced suites, Tower A sets the tone for a distinguished mixed-use address in Mount Austin. This milestone reflects Richmond Asia Group’s vision to deliver enduring value through thoughtfully designed, high-quality developments.
