FAQs

  • What is a Serviced Apartment?

    Serviced apartments offer an experience akin to being at home—well, at least that’s how our apartments feel, as they embody the essence of a cosy home.

    You’ll find all the familiar comforts, from a well-equipped kitchen and a bathroom to fresh towels and bedding, a comfy sofa, and a dining table with chairs. It’s almost like residing in a showcase home, but with a touch of extra warmth that makes our apartments feel even more inviting.

    What’s particularly wonderful about a serviced apartment is that you don’t have to worry about the occasional cleaning, laundry, or handling bills. In our serviced apartments, we take care of all these tasks for you, and you can customize the frequency based on your preferences.

  • What's the difference between a Serviced Apartment and a Hotel?

    In a serviced apartment, it’s not just about a bed and a bathroom—it’s your personal playground for choices! Want to whip up a cake, binge-watch Netflix with friends, or order takeout? You’ve got the freedom to do it all, unlike the limited options of a hotel room with just a bed and a sink…

    No one’s keeping tabs on your every move when you step out, and you won’t be rudely awakened at 8 am for a surprise bedsheet change.

    But hey, if you ever need anything, a quick call to us, and we’ll make it happen! We’re here to turn your stay into a fantastic experience!

  • What's the difference between being Self-Catering and being in a Serviced Apartment?

    Self-catering typically involves guests (that’s you!) taking on the responsibility of cleaning the property and bringing their own bed linen, towels, and cleaning supplies. Essentially, you’re renting a flat or house in its current state and are responsible for leaving it as you found it.

    Now, in a serviced apartment like the ones we offer in Bristol, you can save that precious suitcase space for your wardrobe, shoes, and travel essentials. We’ve got you covered with provided bed linen, towels, and cleaning services, tailored to your preferences—so you can focus on enjoying your trip without the hassle of extra packing or clean-up duties.

  • Special Rates for Extended Stays?

    Absolutely. If you’re staying with us for 7 days or more you can expect…

    10% off – 7+ nights
    15% off – 14+ nights
    25% off – 30+ nights

    If you planning on staying with us for a while, get in touch and we’ll see what we can do.

  • Minimum or Maximum Stay?

    We’re happy to take bookings as short as one night, or as long as you like.

    There is sometimes a minimum 2 night stay at some apartments!

  • Is Parking Available?

    Some of our apartments come with complimentary parking such as Clifton House, while others there is a fee. Please enquire when booking and we can advise you accordingly.

  • Are Your Serviced Apartments Dog or Pet Friendly?

    We do have a number of serviced apartments which are dog friendly and others which are pet friendly.

    Dog must be under 30 pounds/15kgs. We provide blankets to cover sofa cushions to prevent them from being scratched.

    We cannot always accommodate dogs or pets in all our apartments for reasons to do with allergies, however, we do always try to accommodate each guests requirements on a situational basis.

    We do not allow cats at any of our apartments.
