Serviced apartments are way more cost effective than hotels as the overheads are lower and this is more so if you are on an extended stay. Furthermore, during key events it’s very difficult to get hotel rooms and even if you do get one, the rates are usual prohibitive and cancellation policies often do not apply.
Professional travel management firms like CWS procure serviced apartments in all key cities ensuring proximity to business event locations thus making it easier for employees to travel to and fro, be it day or night.
While studio apartments and serviced apartments are traditionally used as temporary housing for employees seeking permanent housing during a relocation/shift/transfer, corporates now see it as a viable alternative for employees on an extended stay project.
Designed to offer a home-like atmosphere, serviced apartments are often more spacious than hotel rooms. With housekeeping, you get the hotel service in a home-like atmosphere. Serviced apartments also offer a more bespoke experience as individual requests can be catered to via concierge service.
When specific dietary requirements are a challenge, business travellers find serviced apartments with kitchenettes/fully equipped kitchens very handy as they can rustle up their own meals to suit their palate.
