Why choose an aparthotel?

A flexible way to stay in London

Aparthotels are popular with business travellers, families and longer-stay guests because they can combine practical apartment facilities with services more commonly associated with a hotel.

More independence

Many aparthotels include a kitchenette or kitchen, giving you the freedom to prepare meals when it suits you.

Hotel-style services

Depending on the property, facilities may include reception, housekeeping, concierge, luggage storage or communal areas.

Business-friendly

Wi-Fi, work space and central locations can make aparthotels particularly practical for business travel and project stays.

Short or long stays

Aparthotels can work well for a few nights, several weeks or longer, depending on the property and rate selected.

What is an aparthotel?

The best features of a hotel and an apartment in one stay

An aparthotel is accommodation designed to provide apartment-style living with selected hotel-style services.

Unlike a standard hotel room, many aparthotel units include cooking facilities and may provide additional living or dining space. At the same time, guests may benefit from services such as a staffed reception, housekeeping, security or on-site facilities.

Exactly what is included varies from one property to another, so the individual listing should always be checked carefully before booking.

Choosing the right aparthotel

What should you look for?

Location, length of stay and the facilities you actually need are usually more important than simply choosing the property with the longest amenities list.

1. Location & transportCheck journey times to your office, event venue, hospital or attractions, and look at Underground, rail and bus links nearby.
2. Kitchen facilitiesCheck whether the unit offers a full kitchen or kitchenette and whether the facilities suit the way you plan to use the apartment.
3. Reception & arrivalIf arriving late, confirm the check-in arrangements and whether reception is staffed at the time you expect to arrive.
4. HousekeepingFrequency varies by property and rate, particularly on longer stays. Check what is included before booking.
5. LaundrySome properties have in-room washing machines; others provide shared laundry facilities or laundry services.
6. Cancellation conditionsRead the cancellation and amendment terms for the exact rate you are selecting before confirming payment.
7. Building facilitiesIf a gym, lift, parking, air conditioning, security or 24-hour reception matters to you, verify it on the individual listing.
8. Length of stayFor longer bookings, it can be worth contacting our team because extended stays may have different options or commercial terms.
