Service apartment company Oakwood launched a free neighborhood mobile app two months ago. The location-based service highlights dining, shopping, wellness, medical and entertainment options in areas surrounding Oakwood properties.
It also gives you practical tips on when the best time to visit the bank is and reveals secret routes and shortcuts to help you navigate the city like a local.
It’s usable even if you aren’t a guest (so long as you aren’t too far from one of their 26 Asian properties). But if you do book a room—their newest location is the Oakwood Premier Guangzhou—you get additional perks like discounts at merchants surrounding the property and free welcome drinks at local bars. Of course, you can also make reservations via the app.
