Staying High: water tower repurposed into one-of-its-kind accommodation

Up-in-the-sky, 15 meter above ground: the upcoming Chateau d'O Suite and Pool, Koch Pich, Phnom Penh. Latest addition to maadest, a collection of eccentric rooms by MAADS.

For a birdseye buff, this is prime location: the Koh Norea Bridge in close background, the majestic Phnom Penh Four Rivers -- at their highest level now that monsoon season is still active -- , the green treetops of Treellion Park and Aquation Office Park, and even the aquamarine expanse of Dib Club pool in the distance...

And here, 15 meter high above ground, workers are busy completing the reconversion of a disused cast iron water tower into the Chateau d'O Suite and Pool: a unique staycation structure that will soon add to the collection of eccentric rooms under the brand name maadest.

While the water tank itself is being turned into a designer swimming pool surrounded by a lounge deck and a wraparound balcony, the 'lower' level (still up in the sky!) will accommodate a spacious suite with king-size bed, en-suite bathroom, separate toilet, lounging area and desk.
