HELSINKI – Bob W, the tech-powered hospitality operator, is expanding its London presence in the serviced apartment space with three new openings, taking the brand’s total number of properties in the capital to 13.

As a tech-led, hospitality provider we offer an exceptionally responsive guest experience that delivers a five-star stay every time. Our building requires minimal teams to operate efficiently, enabling us to scale our portfolios at pace.
