Oakwood has announced a new opening in Bangalore, expanding the group's India portfolio to include five properties, with three more slated to join by 2016.
Located on top of the Forum Value Mall in Whitefield, Oakwood Residence Prestige Whitefield Bangalore overlooks the Varthur Lake and is just over an hour’s drive from Bengaluru International Airport.
Since the 1980s, the district's eponymous Whitfield Main Road has become a major hub for the country's technology industry with notable companies such as Dell, IBM and Intel having set up shop in the area. It has also experienced a boom in residential construction since the 1990s, which has resulted in several highly regarded international schools opening along the road.
Oakwood residence lounge
The property offers 143 studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom apartments for both long and short stays. Each private residence offers a home entertainment system, modern kitchen, washer and dryer, wifi and rain shower.
There is an all-day-dining restaurant that serves multi-cuisine offerings. Residents also have access to the fully equipped Fitness Centre by Oakwood, an outdoor swimming pool, and a private children’s play area. Business travellers can also make use of the meeting facilities and secretarial services at the Genesis Business Services.
Oakleaf Restaurant & Bar
Oakwood now boasts a collection of 26 serviced-apartment operations in the Asia-Pacific region with properties in destinations such as Guangzhou (see here) and Hong Kong (see here).
