• Fully furnished luxury suites
• Only 298 residences
• An automated concierge parking system
• Floor-to-ceiling double-glazed windows

Orion Residence Project Overview

Get Latest Investment Package

*Buyers should still confirm the latest CCC, vacant-possession, key-collection and unit-viewing status before signing.

The project offers a complete range from compact 491 sq ft studios to 1,329 sq ft three-bedroom dual-key residences. The final developer selection, however, is now concentrated in several studio and two-bedroom layouts.

Important: Final Units Are for Investment Only

Remaining units for investments only. No own stay.

This should be clearly disclosed to buyers before collecting a booking.

It means that the final developer stock should not currently be marketed as a normal own-stay purchase unless the developer provides updated written clarification.

Interested buyers should request full details regarding:

• The applicable investment programme
• Whether participation in a management arrangement is compulsory
• Owner usage entitlement
• Rental-management terms
• Revenue-sharing structure, if applicable
• Management and operating charges
• Furnishing ownership
• Maintenance responsibilities
• Lock-in period
• Exit or resale conditions
• Whether vacant possession is delivered directly to the purchaser
• Applicable taxes and withholding arrangements

No rental return or investment performance should be presented as guaranteed unless it is expressly guaranteed in a legally binding agreement.

Orion Residence Final Unit Types

Type A4 – 491 sq ft

• Studio unit
• 1 bathroom
• Compact open-plan layout
• Fully furnished specification, subject to confirmation
• Northeast orientation
• Facing Ritz-Carlton
• Selected units on Levels 23, 24, 28 and 31

Current gross price

From approximately RM1,700,300

Best suited for:

• Overseas investors
• Buyers seeking the lowest developer entry price
• Investors targeting individual professionals or couples
• Buyers who prioritise a central Bukit Bintang address
• Buyers who prefer a five-star hotel-facing unit

Type A4 currently provides the lowest gross developer price within the remaining selection.

Its main attraction is not the size alone. It is the combination of a compact investment layout, Ritz-Carlton-facing orientation, full furnishing and a central Bukit Bintang position.

However, buyers should compare the current developer price against completed subsale and rental listings within Orion Residence before deciding.

Type A1 – 495 sq ft

• Studio unit
• 1 bathroom
• Southwest-facing
• View towards Merdeka 118
• Selected high-floor units
• Fully furnished specification, subject to confirmation

Current gross price

From approximately RM1,811,300

Best suited for:

• Investors who prefer a high-floor compact unit
• Buyers attracted to the Merdeka 118 skyline
• Corporate-rental investors
• Overseas buyers seeking a recognisable Kuala Lumpur view

The currently marked Type A1 selections are located on higher floors, including Levels 31 and 34.

The Merdeka 118 orientation may provide a more recognisable skyline story for international marketing, although views should always be checked from the actual unit.

Type A2 – 495 sq ft

• Studio unit
• 1 bathroom
• Southwest-facing
• View towards Merdeka 118
• Selected units from Levels 28 to 37

Current gross price

From approximately RM1,763,900

Best suited for:

• Buyers comparing compact high-floor units
• Investors seeking a Merdeka 118-facing residence
• Buyers who want more floor-level choices than Type A1
• Investors prioritising view and location over internal size

Type A2 currently offers more final developer choices than Type A1.

Because Type A1 and A2 are both 495 sq ft and face the same general landmark, buyers should compare:

• Floor level
• Exact view angle
• Internal layout
• Distance from lift lobby
• Price difference
• Applicable investment package

Type B1 – 680 sq ft

• 2 bedrooms
• 2 bathrooms
• Southeast orientation
• Facing TRX
• One marked unit on Level 24

Current gross price

Approximately RM2,341,500

Best suited for:

• Investors targeting couples
• Two professional tenants
• Business travellers
• Buyers seeking a proper two-bedroom configuration
• Investors attracted to the TRX growth corridor

The 680 sq ft Type B1 provides two bedrooms and two bathrooms while maintaining a relatively compact total size.

Its TRX-facing position may appeal to investors targeting professionals working within the financial district, but actual rental demand, competition and achieved rates should be studied carefully.

Type B4 – 708 sq ft

• 2 bedrooms
• 2 bathrooms
• Northwest orientation
• Facing Pavilion and KLCC
• One marked unit on Level 22

Current gross price

Approximately RM2,329,200

Best suited for:

• Investors who prioritise recognisable skyline views
• Buyers attracted to Pavilion and KLCC
• Corporate-leasing investors
• Buyers who prefer a slightly larger two-bedroom unit

Interestingly, the remaining Type B4 is larger than Type B1 but has a slightly lower gross price in the June chart.

The difference could relate to floor, facing, release package or pricing strategy. Buyers should therefore compare both units rather than assuming that the smaller layout must be cheaper.

Type C1 – 838 sq ft

• 2 bedrooms
• 2 bathrooms
• North-facing
• View towards JW Marriott and KLCC
• Selected units on Levels 11 and 15

Current gross price

From approximately RM2,619,800

Best suited for:

• Investors targeting premium couples or small households
• Buyers seeking a more comfortable two-bedroom layout
• Corporate tenants
• Investors attracted to hotel and KLCC views
• Buyers who value a lower price per square foot than the studios

Type C1 offers a more conventional residential arrangement than the compact Type A studios.

It may appeal to tenants who intend to stay for a longer period and require proper bedrooms, two bathrooms and more usable living space.

Type C5 – 886 sq ft

• 2 bedrooms
• 2 bathrooms
• Northeast-facing
• View towards Westin and Ritz-Carlton
• Largest concentration of remaining units
• Available across several floors

Current gross price

From approximately RM2,780,500

Best suited for:

• Investors seeking the widest current floor selection
• Buyers targeting premium longer-stay tenants
• Corporate-rental investors
• Couples requiring more space
• Buyers attracted to the five-star hotel district

Type C5 forms the largest part of the current final selection, with approximately 13 units marked available in the June chart.

The available floors appear to include Levels 12 to 25, although not every level has a unit remaining.

Because several Type C5 units remain, buyers have a better opportunity to compare floor, price and actual view within the same layout.

Why Consider Orion Residence?

1. Freehold Property in Bukit Bintang

Orion Residence occupies freehold land within one of Kuala Lumpur’s most recognised city-centre districts.

The combination of freehold tenure, a Bukit Bintang address and limited total units may appeal to investors who intend to hold a centrally located asset over the longer term.

Freehold status alone, however, does not guarantee capital appreciation. Entry price, holding costs, rental demand and future resale competition remain important.

2. Only 298 Residences

With only 298 units in one tower, Orion Residence has a smaller residential population than many newer city-centre serviced apartment developments.

This may support a more private environment and reduce the number of directly competing units within the same building.

However, the low unit count should be viewed together with the relatively compact 0.56-acre site and the vertical nature of the development.

3. Surrounded by Luxury Hotels and Shopping

Orion Residence sits within the established Bukit Bintang luxury corridor.

Nearby destinations include:

• Pavilion Kuala Lumpur
• The Starhill
• Fahrenheit 88
• Lot 10
• JW Marriott
• The Ritz-Carlton
• The Westin
• The Exchange TRX
• Bukit Bintang MRT
• Bintang Walk
• Jalan Bukit Bintang dining and retail

The official project website also identifies KLCC, Pavilion, TRX, Lot 10, Sungei Wang Plaza and Fahrenheit 88 among its surrounding landmarks and malls.

Exact walking distances depend on the building entrance, route, weather and pedestrian crossings, so buyers should personally test the journey.

4. Fully Furnished Luxury Specification

The development was marketed with a fully furnished interior specification incorporating established international brands.

Published project information identified:

• Miele or Gaggenau hood and hob
• Miele microwave oven
• Bosch refrigerator
• Washing machine and dryer
• Kohler bathroom fittings
• Carrier centralised VRF air-conditioning
• Curtain fit-out
• Double-glazed floor-to-ceiling windows

The exact items supplied with each final unit should be verified against the written furnishing schedule attached to the sale documentation.

For an investor, full furnishing may reduce the amount of additional work required before the unit can be offered for rental, although decorative items, linen, kitchenware and operating equipment may still be required.

5. Automated Concierge Parking

Instead of requiring residents to drive through multiple parking levels, Orion Residence uses an automated concierge parking system.

Residents drive into an entry cabin, after which the system manages the parking and retrieval process.

This is an unusual feature in Kuala Lumpur and helps maximise the use of a compact city-centre site.

Buyers should nevertheless understand:

• Expected retrieval time
• Vehicle size and weight restrictions
• Visitor parking arrangements
• Breakdown procedures
• Maintenance responsibilities
• Operating charges
• Access during power or system interruptions

6. Distinctive City Views

Depending on the chosen stack, the remaining units face:

• TRX
• Merdeka 118
• Pavilion and KLCC
• JW Marriott and KLCC
• The Westin
• The Ritz-Carlton

The sales chart assigns the landmark-facing description according to stack and orientation.

Views should never be assumed to remain permanently unobstructed. Buyers should check neighbouring land, future development potential and the actual angle from the selected floor.

Ground Floor – The Galactic

The official website lists these facilities across the ground floor and Levels 9, 10, 43, 44 and 46.

Access, operating hours, charges and the opening status of commercial dining components should be confirmed with the management.

Location and Connectivity

Orion Residence is positioned between Jalan Gading and Jalan Palmer within Bukit Bintang.

The location provides access towards:

• Jalan Bukit Bintang
• Jalan Imbi
• Jalan Raja Chulan
• Jalan Tun Razak
• TRX
• KLCC
• Jalan Sultan Ismail
• Smart Tunnel and wider city road connections

Public Transportation

Nearby rail options within the wider area include:

• Bukit Bintang MRT Station
• Conlay MRT Station
• TRX MRT Interchange
• Bukit Bintang Monorail Station
• Raja Chulan Monorail Station

Orion should be described as within walking distance of city rail connectivity, rather than as a direct or zero-metre transit-oriented development.

The official project location information highlights access to the MRT Kajang Line, MRT Putrajaya Line, KL Monorail and other Klang Valley rail lines.

Is Orion Residence Suitable for Own Stay?

The development itself contains layouts that could physically accommodate owner-occupiers.

However, the latest internal developer chart specifically states that the remaining units are:

For investments only. No own stay.

Therefore, the current final stock should not be recommended for own stay until the developer clarifies or removes this restriction in writing.

A buyer seeking a personal residence in Bukit Bintang should compare other completed developments or Orion Residence subsale units that are not subject to the same final-stock arrangement.

Is Orion Residence Suitable for Investment?

Orion Residence may interest investors seeking:

• A freehold Kuala Lumpur city-centre asset
• A Bukit Bintang address
• A fully furnished unit
• Proximity to luxury shopping and hotels
• Access to TRX and KLCC
• A boutique building with only 298 units
• Corporate or premium urban tenant profiles
• Recognisable landmark views
• Professional rental management

Potential tenant profiles may include:

• Expatriate professionals
• Senior corporate executives
• Couples working in the city centre
• International business travellers
• Longer-stay luxury visitors
• Tenants working around TRX, Bukit Bintang or KLCC

However, buyers should not rely solely on projected room rates or rental-return illustrations.

A proper assessment should include:

• Actual purchase price after the current package
• Maintenance and sinking-fund charges
• Rental-management fees
• Revenue-sharing arrangement
• Furnishing replacement reserve
• Utility charges
• Assessment and quit rent
• Insurance
• Vacancy allowance
• Booking-platform charges, where applicable
• Income tax
• Financing costs
• Resale restrictions

The current programme and whether a particular operator is compulsory should be confirmed directly from the latest written documents.

What I Like About Orion Residence

Prime Bukit Bintang position

The location is surrounded by established retail, hotels, dining, employment and transport—not merely proposed future amenities.

Freehold tenure

Freehold city-centre land is a meaningful point for long-term investors.

Limited residential collection

Only 298 units are contained in the tower.

Fully furnished specification

The published furnishing list includes well-known appliance and sanitary-fitting brands.

Automated parking system

The system creates a distinctive experience and reduces the need to navigate conventional parking floors.

Strong view selection

The final units include views towards TRX, Merdeka 118, KLCC, Pavilion and internationally recognised hotels.

Extensive high-level facilities

Facilities extend to the upper floors and rooftop instead of being limited to the podium.

Points Investors Should Consider Carefully

Final units are not for own stay

This is the most important condition disclosed in the current chart.

High entry price per square foot

The final compact units carry gross prices above RM3,000 per sq ft.

The investment case must therefore be supported by premium rental performance and long-term demand—not merely the Bukit Bintang name.

Automated parking requires due diligence

Buyers should understand retrieval times, vehicle restrictions, charges and backup procedures.

Commercial facilities may have separate operating arrangements

Fine dining, bars, lounges and retail areas may not necessarily be included within the residential maintenance fee.

Rental returns are not guaranteed

Projected occupancy, nightly rates or annual returns can change according to tourism, competition, management quality and economic conditions.

Final units offer selected choices only

Not every layout, floor or view remains available.

Compare against subsale listings

Completed or secondary-market Orion units may be offered at prices different from the remaining developer stock. Buyers should compare the total package, condition, furniture, management eligibility and legal obligations.

Who Should Consider Orion Residence?

Orion Residence’s final units may be suitable for:

• Local and overseas property investors
• Buyers seeking a freehold Bukit Bintang asset
• Investors targeting premium urban tenants
• Buyers who prefer fully furnished property
• Investors seeking proximity to TRX, Pavilion and KLCC
• Buyers attracted to landmark-facing units
• Investors comfortable with professional rental management
• Buyers who understand premium city-centre pricing
• Investors with a medium- to long-term holding period

It may be less suitable for:

• Buyers purchasing for own stay
• First-home buyers
• Buyers seeking a conventional family condominium
• Investors requiring guaranteed returns
• Buyers who prefer self-managing their property
• Buyers sensitive to high maintenance or operating costs
• Buyers seeking large living spaces below RM2 million
• Buyers uncomfortable with automated parking systems

My Honest Review of Orion Residence

Orion Residence is not designed as a mass-market condominium.

Its proposition is built around scarcity, luxury presentation, a central Bukit Bintang address and proximity to some of Kuala Lumpur’s most recognisable landmarks.

The final selection offers several strong investment stories:

• Type A4 provides the lowest entry price with a Ritz-Carlton view.
• Types A1 and A2 face Merdeka 118.
• Type B1 faces TRX.
• Type B4 faces Pavilion and KLCC.
• Type C1 looks towards JW Marriott and KLCC.
• Type C5 faces The Westin and Ritz-Carlton.

However, buyers must assess the numbers carefully.

A gross entry price from approximately RM1.70 million for a compact unit is substantial. The investment needs to be supported by a suitable net purchase price, realistic rental performance, responsible management and controlled operating expenses.

The instruction that the remaining units are for investment only also means the purchase arrangement may differ from a conventional serviced residence.

Before booking, I would ask for:

1. The latest net price
2. Current investment agreement
3. Owner usage entitlement
4. Rental-management fees
5. Revenue-sharing calculation
6. Maintenance and sinking fund
7. Furnishing replacement obligations
8. Exit and resale conditions
9. Historical operating results, where available
10. Written confirmation of all promised benefits

For an investor who understands premium city-centre property and wants a distinctive freehold asset within Bukit Bintang, Orion Residence deserves consideration.

For buyers primarily seeking their own home, the current final developer units are not the appropriate choice unless the developer changes the investment-only condition.
