For those of you who have already had the privilege of staying with onefinestay \u2013 whether in London, Paris, New York or Los Angeles \u2013 you\u2019ll know that they are all about providing you with the creature comforts of a hotel \u2013 like pristine sheets, towels, toiletries, and a personal welcome \u2013 within the setting of a private home.<\/p>\n<p>A key feature of their service is the iPhone that awaits guests upon arrival. You\u2019re free to use it for unlimited local calls, data, and the ability to reach the company\u2019s 24\/7 guest services team at the touch of a button should you need to during your stay.<\/p>\n<p>The iPhone is the perfect tool for today\u2019s independent traveller (after all, many of us would be lost even in our home city without Maps), and the one you\u2019re lent during your onefinestay also comes pre-loaded with the company\u2019s unique app. Formulated to make it simple to navigate the home\u2019s features as well as explore the neighbourhood while you\u2019re in town, the onefinestay app is brilliantly designed to help you settle in seamlessly when visiting a city.<\/p>\n<p>The people at onefinestay have visited each home and taken time to get to know how everything works \u2013 so you don\u2019t have to. The app\u2019s home handbook is loaded with all of the nous and know-how they\u2019ve collected, an invaluable resource for working an unfamiliar washing machine or adjusting the heating.<\/p>\n<p>When you\u2019ve made yourself at home, the app encourages a spot of neighbourhood exploration prompted by recommendations from the home\u2019s owner as well as other onefinestay hosts in the area.\u00a0 Whilst you won&#8217;t meet your host, reading through their personal take on the highlights of the city can often make you feel that they\u2019re an old friend. Sorting through everything from well-regarded restaurants to secret parks, you can \u2018favourite\u2019 the ones you want to visit to create your own experience.<\/p>\n<p>While the recommendations might entice you far from home, you\u2019ll never be lost \u2013 the app knows where you\u2019re staying and helps your find your way back. The necessities are covered too, with details and directions for the closest amenities at hand to ensure that not a moment of your trip is wasted on researching the basics.<\/p>\n<p>With a piece of technology, a website or an app for everything these days, those personal touches that often make travel special and memorable appear under threat. At onefinestay though, you\u2019ll receive a personal welcome on arrival and have the assurance that you can reach their local team by phone at any time of the day or night. And guess what? You can use the app for that.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>onefinestay is pioneering handmade hospitality by offering a unique new category of upscale accommodation, giving discerning guests the chance to stay in the finest homes with an attentive service.
