MORE SPACE, MORE COMFORT, MORE CONTROL… those are some of the reasons savvy vacation and business travelers choose to rent an apartment rather than book a traditional hotel room. The list of advantages goes on: With your own kitchen – the defining feature of self-catering – you can linger over coffee, store fresh snacks and beverages or whip up complete meals from ingredients bought at a nearby market. Because you’ll be living in a real neighborhood, not the hotel district, you’ll be steps from local cafés, bakeries and shops that offer authentic products at everyday prices. Most apartments are equipped with a clothes washer so you can pack light without sacrificing comfort and cleanliness. You'll be able to stretch out in front of the television and enjoy the privacy of separate rooms if you wish, so traveling companions can get together when they want or go their own ways to pursue individual interests. It’s Like Living There® and at a cost less than hotel rooms. Apartments are available in a wide range of sizes, features, prices and locations. We’ll make recommendations that meet your needs inside and out, that fit your budget and that make it easy to see your chosen sights but return day or night to a comfortable retreat. Families find apartments especially appealing, because for less than the price of two or more cramped hotel rooms they can have shared living space, but as many sleeping areas as their tastes and budget allow. Business and academic travelers will find they’re more relaxed and productive in an apartment, especially if a visit extends over several days or weeks. What will you miss? Well, there won’t be a doorman or nightly turn-down. You’ll have to make your own bed (not always; housekeeping is sometimes available, particularly in higher-level apartments). Rather than a concierge, you’ll be guided by suggestions from your host and temporary neighbors. So if you want to return home with a deeper connection to Barcelona or Paris – not just snapshots and room service tabs – consider a self-catering apartment for your next visit.
