Whether travelling for business or leisure, alone, with a group or with family serviced apartments can offer a lot of benefits:

Space

Staying in a serviced apartment gives you the room to work, cook, relax and sleep and on average you can expect to enjoy 30% more space than an equivalent standard of hotel.  A typical one bedroom service apartment is around twice the size of the average hotel room.

Value & Save on Longer Stays

Serviced apartment prices are typically 20% less than hotel rates of the same standard.  There are no hidden extras (mini-bars, room service etc.) to be paid for either.  And because the VAT reduces to 4% after 28 nights longer stays can offer further savings.  Many providers also accommodate bookings for long term bookings which are required Monday to Fridays only to meet the need of corporate guests which can offer even further savings.

Location, Location Location!

Serviced apartments are situated in great locations.  They can be found in every major city throughout the world.  Located in the heart of many tourist destinations as well as important business districts enables serviced apartments to meet the needs of various consumer groups!

Flexibility

You are free to come and go as you wish, enabling you to do things to meet your own schedule. The availability of the facilities in the apartment mean you can cook whenever you wish, work whenever you need to work, and there’s the added space to entertain guests or hold business meetings all within your own private space and at times that suit.  You can often find apartments with several bathrooms and bedrooms which branch off from one central living area, this can work well for families, colleagues or groups travelling together.

Cooking & Washing Facilities

Having your own kitchen is convenient, cost-effective and also great if you have special dietary requirements as you can self-cater.  At the very least, serviced apartments have communal laundries, but most have their own washer and dryers giving you the option of doing your own laundry.  Convenient and cost-saving!

Additional Facilities & Services

If facilities such as gyms, pools, concierge, restaurants or bars are part of your travel needs many serviced properties offer these and more, often rivalling the facilities offered by hotels.  Serviced apartments make a great alternative!

Additional Services

Many properties offer the chance to order bespoke hampers or welcome packs for your arrival as well as the availability of shopping services where you can pre-select goods for delivery.  Rather than spending lots on the in-room mini bar you can buy and keep whatever snacks and drinks you like.

Quality

Don’t dismiss apartments as being boring box rooms.  There is an array of apartments available, from the budget to the luxury, with plush interiors and top quality furnishings.  Apartments offer a fully equipped kitchen, high quality bed linen, towels and toiletries.  First class home entertainment facilities are available with many offering Sky TV and entertainment packages.

Free Wi-Fi

Unlike hotels or similar accommodation types, serviced apartment providers offer free Wi-Fi to their guests as standard!

Meeting Spaces

You can use the space in your apartment to host small business meetings around the dining table in your apartment.  Some providers also have onsite meeting rooms or will assist you in booking external space as needed

Easy To Book

Providers offer their own online booking facilities as well as apartments being available via online booking agents.

Privacy

Serviced apartments generally offer a greater degree of privacy. Apartments allow you to bypass the formalities and in many cases you simply can let yourself in and make yourself at home! A reduced maid service means your apartment can be kept clean but you can retain privacy without constant interruptions.

Security

By their very nature, serviced apartments are private, self-contained accommodations.  In addition you will find that they’re complete with 24 hour CCTV, secure entry and often around the clock security staff.

Home from home

Serviced apartments give you the home from home experience that you do not get in hotels or guest houses, you have the space, the room and the flexibility which is perfect for leisure or business travellers.
