Getting Comfortable with Corporate Travel
Why is corporate housing the preferred alternative to extended stay hotels for business travelers? The comfort of home combined with the luxury of resort amenities far exceeds the allure of room service, housekeeping, and “vacation” feel. Where hotels used to be the standard for business travel, few are as well appointed as corporate furnished apartments, making travelers feel at home for longer periods of time.
Furnished apartments, with a wide variety of locations available, can be divinely finished with top of the line appliances, in-home smart technology systems, and contemporary furnishings. Travelers also get to enjoy expertly designed community spaces, fitness centers, and swimming pools superior to those at most resorts, allowing both mental and physical health to remain a priority. While hotels are often over-used and outdated, corporate housing can offer the highest level of apartment-style living in a wide variety of locations.
The biggest complaint when traveling on business is the stale, stereotypical hotel room to “come home” to each night. Uncomfortable linens and towels, impersonal furnishings, and partial kitchens leave much to be desired. Travelers can unpack for the length of their stay and relax in corporate apartments, without sparing the luxuries of home. Large closets, fully furnished rooms, stocked cabinets, and designer-selected finishing touches make coming home comfortable.
Staying in corporate housing doesn’t limit your lifestyle like residing in a hotel does. Units complete with full gourmet kitchens welcome residents to get into a routine of grocery shopping and cooking, encouraging healthier meal choices and money-saving opportunities to eat at home, as opposed to regularly going out to eat, which can drive up the cost of being away. The ability to have a normal home life is especially useful for business travelers with families, small children, and pets. Fully stocked kitchens and living areas also open the door to hosting colleagues, family members, and out of town guests in a laid-back, private environment.
Upscale residential units provide the privacy of a home while being conveniently situated for business travel in major cities. Individuals enjoy the independence of living at home in a far-away place. For business travelers with families, adequately sized NYC apartments and units in other major metropolises would be very difficult or impossible to secure through traditional means for short stays. Corporate housing takes the guesswork out of traveling for business or extended trips and provides a guaranteed, stable place to stay, that will accommodate single travelers, families with children, and larger groups far in advance. Hotels in popular cities would be astronomically expensive for extended stays and could lack availability. Furnished apartments in desirable locations often offer the convenience of nearby shopping, restaurants, and transportation for much less than nightly hotel stays with resort and parking fees.
For more affordable, more comfortable, and more convenient living, furnished apartments are the premier choice for business travel and extended journeys. Guests enjoy the best that a new city has to offer from the comfort of a space they can truly call home – for any length of time.
