Serviced Apartments have been growing in popularity with time, as travelers discover the benefits & comforts of serviced apartments over hotels of the same caliber. While leisure travelers are still discovering the joys of a serviced apartment, many business travelers have already rated serviced apartments as their 1st choice of accommodation while traveling. What is it that makes serviced apartments so appealing to a business professional? Let’s have a look at it:
Space:
A typical hotel room is spread over ~350 sq.ft. And consists of just 1 room. 60% of the floor space in the aforesaid hotel room is occupied by the bed, so you hardly have any space to move around. Standard hotel rooms do not even contain a workstation making it difficult for the business traveler to set-up his/her workspace.
As opposed to this, a standard 1BHK serviced apartment at premium providers like Lalco Residency is spread over 900+ sq. ft. It has 1 bedroom, 1 Living room, 1 dining area, 1 Kitchen, 2 bathrooms (one for you and one your guests) and a dedicated workstation! So a business traveler can easily set up their workspace and have ample room to move around and relax.
Kitchen:
Frequent corporate travelers; often prefer to have home-cooked meals as opposed to outside food. Many times this preference is due to health concerns or dietary restrictions or simply due to paucity of time. When staying at a hotel, there is no option but to eat outside food. Whereas a fully equipped serviced apartment like those offered by Lalco Residency comes with a fully functional kitchen wherein you have absolute freedom to cook your own meals and have them within the comfort of your apartment while continuing to work on your projects or while enjoying some nice private relaxation time.
Convenience:
Quite often corporate travel happens as a group or a delegation. Staying in separate hotel rooms reduced the efficiency of the group as it requires frequent coordination between all the members. As opposed to this a group can choose a 3-4-5-6 BHK apartment and accommodate all the members within the same apartment. While each member has 100% private sleeping space and private washroom, at the same time they are easily accessible to each other and can work much more efficiently by utilizing the common living room and dining area as meeting spaces.
Cost:
Corporate travelers to metros like Mumbai are well aware of how fast the bill can rack up when staying in a 4-star hotel especially if the stay is a long one. Typically a well-placed serviced apartment like Lalco Residency, Andheri, and Mumbai can help corporate save up to 1/3rd of their travel cost as compared to what they would have spent with a hotel! No wonder serviced apartments make immense sense to corporate travelers.
With so many positives, no wonder more and more business travelers are showing a preference for serviced apartments over hotels! Are you a corporate traveler too?
