Ει βούλει καλώς ακούειν, μάθε καλώς λέγειν, μαθών δε καλώς λέγειν, πειρώ καλώς πράττειν, και ούτω καρπώση το καλώς ακούειν. (Επίκτητος)

onefinestay celebrates 200 homes in New York


onefinestay announced the addition of the 200th home in New York to its carefully curated collection of homes, letting guests live like a local while the owner is out of town, with all the comforts and conveniences of a hotel service.
onefinestay redefines the experience of city travel: guests live like a local by staying in a distinctive home, which is paired with amenities including 5* hotel linens, fluffy towels, toiletries, and even an iPhone for the duration of their stay. Meanwhile, members earn a hassle-free income at times when their house or apartment would otherwise stand vacant. Explore onefinestay’s landmark homes in New York so far.
London-born onefinestay expanded to New York in May 2012, and the first home, Sullivan Street, set the tone for those to follow. This Soho townhouse is deemed so significant that it has been declared a New York City landmark - and being the first home to join onefinestay in New York, it's a landmark for the company too.
The 50th home to join the company was Bond Street 2, a former electrical factory in Boerum Hill, Brooklyn. Like every home listed with onefinestay in New York, it is paired with 5* linens, fluffy towels, Kiehl's toiletries and an iPhone stocked with local recommendations for exploring Brooklyn and beyond for the duration of each guest’s stay.
Fewer than six months on from launch, onefinestay celebrated the addition of the 100th New York home, State Street 2, in November 2012. This quintessential brownstone in Brooklyn Heights has been lovingly restored to its former glory by the current owners.
onefinestay’s 150th home was 14th Street, a decadent Park Slope home with all the trappings of Victorian opulence. Its addition marked accelerated growth for onefinestay in New York, with membership there growing three times more quickly than initially in London.  
And so to the landmark 200th home to join onefinestay in New York, East 12th Street. This colourful and eclectic East Village townhouse is quite something. Its dramatic archways and original mouldings are canvas to delicate antiques, mid-century Danish furniture, bohemian textiles - and everything in between.
With over 1,000 homes already listed exclusively with the company across London and New York, plans to continue onefinestay's international roll-out to further major world cities are afoot.
