What is a serviced apartment?

A serviced apartment can be more than just a place to stay. We believe that a Citybase serviced apartment should offer a unique holiday experience. With so many benefits on offer, just some of the advantages to a serviced apartment are:

• A rate per night that changes the longer you stay. Our property partners want to reward you for booking longer stays; they offer discounted rates if you’re booking a long stay beyond a certain threshold.
•  Fully furnished kitchen, dining area and living room. Our apartments offer personalised customisation to suit your living space needs during your stay.
• Complete flexibility of your time. Unlike hotels where there are set times for breakfast, dinner and lunch, with your own kitchen and living space you are able to cook, eat and sleep on your own time.
•  Freedom to live in more than just one room. Unlike hotels, which usually offer a single room, an apartment provides many separate areas, so each family member can have their own living area if they want.

There are many benefits to a serviced apartment in Cardiff – proving them to be better choices than hotels. With complete control of style and comfort, you will surely feel that your apartment is a home away from home.
