Located in the information technology hub of Bangalore and atop the popular Forum Value Mall at Whitefield, the property is in the proximity of the International Tech Park Bangalore, highly regarded international schools, renowned hospitals and a variety of entertainment, dining and shopping options.

Ideal for both long and short stays, guests can choose from a selection of well equipped residences, including studio, one and two-bedroom units.

Each private residence boasts a state-of-the-art home entertainment system, modern kitchen, fully automated washer and dryer, Wi-Fi, rain shower and many more amenities that make Oakwood the accommodation of choice.

Residents are able to rejuvenate in the well-equipped Fitness Center by Oakwood, relax in the outdoor swimming pool and enjoy time with their family at the private children’s play area. Business travelers can also make use of meeting facilities and secretarial services at the Genesis Business Services.

“India, being one of the world’s fastest growing economies and favored destination for global investment, continues to be a key market as we look to expand in the region,” said Mr. PG Mathew, managing director for Oakwood’s collection of 26 serviced apartments in the Asia Pacific region. “We are especially excited to see the opening of our fifth property in India which reinforces our position as an industry leader and the largest global serviced apartment operator in the country.”
