Across the UK, travellers are swapping hotels for serviced apartments — and for good reason. Offering space, flexibility, and privacy, they’re redefining how people live while away from home.
What Are Serviced Apartments?
A serviced apartment is a fully furnished flat designed for short- or long-term stays. It offers everything a home does — a kitchen, lounge, bedroom, and bathroom — along with hotel-style service such as cleaning and maintenance.
Why Serviced Apartments Are Growing in Popularity
- More Space: Separate living and sleeping areas.
- Better Value: Especially for extended stays.
- Flexibility: Stay a night, a week, or a month.
- Privacy: Enjoy your own space without interruption.
- Professional Service: Clean, managed, and secure.
Serviced Apartments vs Hotels
Hotels provide convenience but can feel cramped. Serviced apartments, like those from Space Apartments, offer genuine freedom — cook your own meals, host guests, or work remotely without compromise.

Serviced apartments are ideal for:
- Corporate guests on long assignments
- Families relocating or between homes
- Contractors and professionals working on short projects
