Luxury amenities: Comfort of a corporate apartment vs. a hotel

Generally, furnished rental apartments offer high-end equipment inside and outside of the living areas.

Furnishings and layout of the apartment are studied according to the needs of the tenants and their habits. Aside from "standard" amenities for the furnished rental, executive housing includes more conveniences than is usually required.

Compared to hotels or apartment hotels, the furnished property offers services in terms of comfort, friendliness, and, most of all, privacy. Of course, expatriate corporates also benefit from standard amenities such as:

  • flat-screen TV
  • Wi-Fi connection
  • Modern living room
  • Comfortable furniture
  • Spacious rooms
  • Washing machine and a dishwasher

The main difference between hotel rooms and furnished apartments is the extra space. Because each apartment is different, the layout of each rental accommodation is not like standard-sized “suites.”

Generally, furnished accommodations have a master bedroom, an equipped kitchen, a separate dining room with a dining table, a living room, a private bathroom, and sometimes even a balcony or patio.

Corporate apartment: creating a personal space away from home

Rental agencies are fully aware of the needs of future tenants. A transfer, a move abroad for professional reasons, can be a stressful period, and this is why expatriates call on specialized agencies to take care of all the formalities related to the rental.

By selecting entirely equipped apartments according to future occupants' needs, the agencies specializing in corporate accommodation rentals give tenants a chance to focus on their move.

Real Estate agents take care of all rental details such as leasehold, electricity, gas, internet, and home insurance contract. Some agencies thus offer personalized packs adapted to a perfect move for tenants.

Location: The advantages of downtown corporate apartments and hotels

The hotels generally settle in areas designed for tourists. As a future expatriate or if you move for a long time, you need a practical place to live.

Corporate apartments usually stand in strategic areas like residential or semi-residential areas. That way, accommodations are close to public transport or near the main highways.

For customers who wish to reside in the center of Paris or lively areas, apartments selected stand near many local shops, bars, or restaurants! Whichever country you are from, all requirements and ethnic foods are available.
