Extended stay hotel
An extended stay hotel is a type of hotel that offers accommodations for a longer period of time, typically ranging from a week to several months, unlike traditional hotels that cater to short-term stays (less than a week).
Extended stay hotels offer amenities that support longer-term living, such as in-suite kitchens (with microwaves, stovetops, and refrigerators) and services like weekly cleaning and laundry. Such hotels may also offer work-friendly facilities like desks, high-speed internet, and conference rooms.
The concept of an extended stay hotel meets the needs of guests who require accommodations for a prolonged period but don’t want to rent an apartment or sign a long-term lease. They can be business travelers, people who need temporary housing before finding a permanent home, seasonal workers, and tourists on extended holidays.
For example, an employee who has been transferred to another city for a temporary project may stay at an extended stay hotel. The property provides them with an apartment-like space that has the necessary facilities for cooking and working.
