A short term serviced apartment is generally located within a larger building and benefits
from a number of services such as a reception/concierge and maid
service. It is important to note that services differ depending on the apartment or
complex within which the apartment is located.
Both of these short let tenancy options provide clients with the privacy and comfort of a stopgap. They
also offer far more substantial living space than the average hotel room and comparatively
are highly competitive. On average a short let tenancy in London can start at around £450 per week and short term serviced
apartments can cost approximately £100 per night. This price is inclusive of all utilities
excluding telephone charges. A recent review of market rates showed that short term letting arrangements
are between 30-40% more cost effective than comparable hotel accommodation.
