Your Space Apartments, the largest provider of serviced apartments in Cambridge, is continuing to grow on the back of increased demand for this alternative to hotel accommodation.
Steve West, a director at Your Space Apartments said, “In the current economic climate, businesses are increasingly seeking more cost effective accommodation alternatives, particularly when clients and staff are in Cambridge for a number of days, weeks or even a few months.”
Launched in Cambridge in 2003, the company bought out Cambridge Apartments and last year and now has the major share of Cambridge’s serviced apartments market. Your Space Apartments is looking for more apartments to lease to meet the needs of its ever expanding client list.
“We now have a range of beautifully appointed apartments across the city, all of which offer more facilities and space than hotel rooms, as well as offering the possibility of huge savings. Clients can work, entertain, cook, sleep and relax as they like,” says Steve, adding:
“The apartments are strategically positioned to offer good access to Cambridge’s business and science parks, Addenbrooke’s or the University, as well as the city’s road network.
“As a result, we’re working with some major companies from across Cambridge, the UK and other parts of the world who need to bring people in for meetings, training or short term contracts and find hotels restrictive and uninspiring.
“We try and make the apartments a home from home. We supply Welcome Packs to enable customers to relax after their journey and can arrange other services such as gym membership, bike hire, airport collection and shopping brought to the fridge.
“In addition to the business traveller, we’re also getting an increasing amount of interest from the tourism market, especially families who like the extra freedom and sense of relaxation they get in a serviced apartment; and insurance companies, who save money by using Your Space Apartments when they have to find alternative accommodation for people who have had their homes damaged by fire or flood.
“All of this means that we’re currently looking out for more places to lease. It’s a market that shows no signs of slowing down.”
