A what3words Case Study
A Hedonist’s Guide, a high-end travel guide and magazine covering top hotels, restaurants, bars, cafes, clubs, sights, shops and spas in 50 cities, wanted to help travelers find the exact places they recommend. Using what3words 3-word addresses, they addressed the challenge of getting people to precise locations, especially in foreign cities and languages.
what3words provided a global 3m x 3m grid of unique 3-word locations that A Hedonist’s Guide added to every destination listing. This made it easier for travelers to navigate directly to recommended venues, helping reduce the frustration of getting lost abroad; the text notes Britons spend 22 million hours a year lost while travelling overseas.
