Variously known as Apartment Hotel, Apart Hotel or Apart-Hotel, ApartHotels are a type of accommodation, described as “a serviced apartment complex that uses a hotel style booking system.” Similar to renting an apartment, the ApartHotel has no fixed contract and occupants can “check out” whenever they wish.

Unlike the rigid format of a hotel room, the ApartHotel system is more flexible, offering a complete and fully fitted apartment. These complexes are usually custom built and similar to a hotel complex containing a varied number of apartments. The length of stay in aparthotels varies anywhere from a few days or months to as long as several years. Prices in an aparthotel are normally cheaper than a regular hotel. People who choose to stay in an aparthotel use them as a home away from home, which usually provides them with a place that is fitted out with everything an average home would require.

First created in holiday destinations for families needing to “live” in an apartment rather than just “stay” in a hotel, the ApartHotel provided a “holiday home” but were generally serviced. In time, these apartments evolved into complete homes, allowing the occupants to do everything they would in a home, such as cleaning, cooking, and washing.

Another positive aspect of the aparthotel is their location in prime locations with panoramic views of cities seen through wall-to-wall windows. Upscale appointments such as broadband connections, interactive TV, servicing and integrated kitchen and bathrooms are other desirable features. High quality furnishings such as leather sofas in the living area and king sized beds raise the level of the hotel experience.

While those are the more luxurious elements, basic accommodations such as satellite or cable TV, washer, dryer, dishwasher, oven, fridge, freezer and other everyday appliances are present as in any complete household.

If you are seeking the best of both worlds, the fusion character of the aparthotel has become the lodging du jour, offering all the amenities of the hotel stay while permitting you to kick back, be yourself, and to make yourself right at home.
