Serviced accommodation has become an increasingly popular choice for business travellers, contractors, families, and leisure guests. But what exactly is it, and how does it compare to other types of stays? If you're considering booking serviced accommodation, this FAQ guide will answer all your questions to help you make an informed decision.


1. What Is Serviced Accommodation?

Serviced accommodation refers to fully furnished apartments or houses available for short-term or long-term stays. These properties include amenities such as kitchens, living areas, and often luxury touches like high-speed Wi-Fi, hotel-quality linens, and weekly housekeeping services. Think of it as the perfect blend of a hotel and a home.


2. Who Can Benefit from Staying in Serviced Accommodation?

Serviced accommodation is ideal for a wide range of travellers:

  • Business Travelers: With home-like comforts and work-friendly setups, it’s perfect for corporate stays.

  • Contractors: Flexible lengths of stay and practical amenities like laundry facilities make it convenient.

  • Families: More space, privacy, and full kitchens provide a family-friendly alternative to cramped hotel rooms.

  • Large Groups: Multiple bedrooms and communal areas create the ideal setup for group travel.

3. What Are the Advantages of Serviced Accommodation Compared to Hotels?
