Serviced apartments – at the essence of event management
Corporate event management requires zest and imagination in choice of accommodation – so turn to serviced apartments to keep your guests happy
Event management requires thoughtful planning and meticulous attention to detail. Corporate organisations specialising in event management are increasingly turning to serviced apartments to ensure a comfortable, stylish and atmospheric stay for their guests.
Selecting the ideal serviced apartment may first entail addressing a number of specific details including:-
- Number of guests
- Budget
- Desired event image
When these have been formalised, a little inspiration is called for. What is the event style? Would it be most appropriate for guests to stay in a converted warehouse, a rural retreat, Victorian conversion or a beach residence? Perhaps a slick city pad is more apt? While the creative streak is being tapped into, it’s important to bear various practicalities in mind:-
- Are there adequate parking facilities in the serviced apartments?
- Are the serviced apartments close to public transportation? Do they need to be?
- Are there any special transportation issues to be addressed?
- Are the serviced apartments situated close to the event venue?
- What is the smoking policy in the serviced apartments?
Serviced apartments – the booking process
When you have ascertained the requirements of the serviced apartments, narrow down the possible locations online and check if sufficient rooms are available on the required date. Serviced apartments book up quickly so if you’re aiming to give your guests a memorable stay, get organised as soon as possible. If you can visit the serviced apartments in advance to vet them first hand, this can offer event managers valuable peace of mind. It is also worth checking cancellation policies should guest numbers drop nearer the time.
