Work, Stay, Relax: The Benefits of Luxury Aparthotels for Business Trips

26/09/2025

Business travel has changed dramatically in recent years. For many professionals, the idea of being stuck in a hotel room and living out of a suitcase puts a damper on what would otherwise be an exciting professional opportunity.   

Business travellers want a space that helps them stay productive, maintain healthy routines, and feel at home - all while enjoying the convenience that a hotel offers. This is where luxury aparthotels step in. 

What Is a Luxury Aparthotel? 

Combining the utility of a serviced apartment with the comfort of a high-end hotel, a luxury aparthotel is the ideal spot for a traveller looking to settle in for a while. Guests can enjoy the privacy and convenience of an apartment alongside the amenities of a hotel, including a concierge service and pool.  

For business travellers, this means freedom and flexibility without compromising on comfort or service.  

Space to Work and Live 

One thing we learned during the pandemic is the importance of separating your ‘home’ and ‘work’ spaces when working from home. While a hotel room often doubles as both office and bedroom, an aparthotel provides dedicated spaces to work and to relax. 

With superfast Wi-Fi, desks, and quiet surroundings they provide the ideal location to stay productive and inspired. Once the working day ends, guests can step away from their laptop and unwind in the living room, creating a much-needed boundary between work and personal time.

Flexibility for Longer Stays 

Aparthotels are especially attractive for longer trips. Providing everything you need to make yourself at home, including a fully equipped kitchen and laundry facilities, they’re perfect for longer stays. Guests can settle into a familiar routine that gives them the presence of mind to be productive, no matter how far away from the office they are.  

Added Comfort and Luxury 

The extra layer of service and style is what really sets aparthotels apart from your classic short-stay apartment. Guests can expect the contemporary style and comfort of a modern apartment complex, and the luxury amenities of a hotel, such as gyms and pools. This provides the perfect environment to relax after a long day of meetings – which is ideal for any business traveller.
