Unlock Extended-Stay Rates with Navan

Extended-stay rates offer a cost-effective solution for corporations and employees facing long-term assignments, projects, or relocation challenges. Unlike standard hotel stays, extended stays offer the comfort and amenities necessary for spending weeks or months away from home, such as fully equipped kitchens and spacious suites.

Understanding Extended-Stay Rates

Extended-stay rates are tailored for longer stays, providing more affordable hotel rates compared to the traditional nightly rate. These rates include amenities designed for long-term guests, such as on-site laundry facilities and full kitchens, that make extended-stay hotels or rentals perfect for business travelers and relocating employees.

Comparing Extended Stay Solutions

When considering extended-stay accommodations, it’s essential to understand the critical differences between hotels and serviced apartments to determine which option best aligns with your needs and preferences.

Hotels typically offer daily housekeeping, on-site dining options, and other amenities such as fitness centers and business lounges. They are ideal for shorter extended stays or for travelers who prioritize convenience and service. 

Serviced apartments offer a more home-like environment, with fully equipped kitchens, living areas, and sometimes even laundry facilities. By catering to long-term stays, they offer a sense of normalcy and the ability to maintain daily routines.

Cost Considerations

Serviced apartments may offer better value for longer stays, due to reduced rates and the ability to cook meals in the apartment and save on dining costs.

Lifestyle and Comfort

Serviced apartments may be better for families or those who desire more space and a home-like setting, while hotels might be preferable for solo travelers or those on business trips who can benefit from hotel services and amenities.

Flexibility and Services 

Serviced apartments often provide more flexible lease terms, making them ideal for uncertain project durations or extended relocation processes. Hotels, on the other hand, might offer more straightforward booking but less flexibility regarding lease length.
