Onefinestay is a luxury hospitality business that matches travellers with upscale lodging to stay in during their visits – essentially an AirBnb for fine homes with a few added touches. Onefinestay provides everything you could ask for to make yourself comfortable – including linens, towels, toiletries, and an iPhone – with all the tips and recommendations you could ever need in a new city. They are also available to their clients 24/7 and provide cleaning services for guests while they’re out on their adventures. They currently have homes for use in London, Paris, New York, and Los Angeles. So it’s no wonder they have now teamed up with Tokyobike to provide the one essential luxury that had until now been missing from their offerings: a bicycle.

Onefinestay will be offering all New York guests a complimentary one-day bike rental from the Japanese bicycle and lifestyle brand, Tokyobike, through their North American outpost, Tokyobike NYC. Their bikes are based on the concept of ‘Tokyo Slow’ – the idea that bicycles are as much a means of exploring and getting to know a place rather than just a means of commuting. They’re for a journey, not just a destination.

Onefinestay is all about feeling at home in any city, and taking in the sights and sounds of the destination. With that in mind, Tokyobike is the perfect brand for them to collaborate with, not to mention the understated elegance of the bikes themselves.

Guests of Onefinestay will be offered up to four bikes for all visits to New York between September 7^th and November 25^th, 2015. To reserve a bike guests only need to call the Tokyobike store where the owners will select the right bike for each guest. The bike shop has also partnered with Sahn and Kryptonite to provide guests with helmets and locks for their ride.

Bicycling is one of the best ways to get to know a city, and New York is the kind of place you can visit a thousand times and still find some little café or restaurant you never knew existed. A bike allows you to see things you didn’t catch the last time around from your taxi or taking a stroll through Central park. Onefinestay has definitely found another brilliant way to enrich the experience of their guests.
