20 Feb Business apartment rentals: making expat employees feel at home
Imagine moving temporarily for work and feeling like you’re at home. Traditionally, business apartment rentals for companies provided housing for expat employees: people who had to move from one city -or even one country- to another for a long enough period of time that they needed more permanent accommodations than a hotel. In recent times, however, due to the restrictions and new social and work protocols associated with the pandemic, this type of apartment accommodation has also been extended to employees and executives who travel occasionally. Staying in an apartment offers health safety guarantees, as well as allowing guests to stay within their social “bubble”. Moving into the space traditionally occupied by business hotels, many of these types of accommodations also offer services to guests in a fully furnished apartment that can be a great improvement over the traditional hotel offer.
Our extensive experience in providing services to executives and our expertise in rental management in Barcelona have led Lodging Management to establish a catalogue of accommodations geared specifically to companies. These temporary business apartment rentals not only meet the comfort, service, and functionality expectations of our clients, but go further to provide an experience tailored to your employees’ needs.
Health security
At Lodging Management, housekeeping has always been a priority, but over the last year we have put additional protocols in place to guarantee Covid-free spaces. Our company apartment rentals are delivered fully disinfected and with additional hygiene treatments that eliminate microorganisms present in air and water. All surfaces and areas, including corridors, furniture, electrical appliances, doors and windows are sanitized by specialized personnel who thoroughly clean and ventilate the spaces every time they come. Additionally, the curtains, sheets, towels and other textiles that remain in the apartment go through an industrial laundry cycle with hypoallergenic detergents before being delivered to the next tenant.
Home office
When renting apartments for executives in Barcelona, if required, Lodging has top suppliers who can set up a home office. Bright spaces, work areas and, of course, high-speed Internet, both via Wi-Fi and Ethernet, are some of the services that come with the standard package in our selection of apartments for companies.
Inspiring interior design
Just because an apartment has been rented by a company doesn’t mean it has to be cold like a business hotel. At Lodging Apartments, we believe the opposite. We manage contemporary, dynamic, designer properties that people love to come home to. Our spacious apartments have modern furniture and finishes that exude calm and the full set of electrical appliances required for a homey and comfortable life. Additionally, Lodging’s rental apartments are located in highly energy-efficient buildings with good indoor climate control that require the minimum expenditure of resources.
24/7 support
When searching for temporary rental flats for companies, it is essential to find an option with 24/7 service that will help you avoid unnecessary costs. As experts in apartment management in Barcelona, Lodging Management has the infrastructure and resources necessary for the maintenance of all our properties. Our flexibility allows us to offer periodic or occasional cleaning services, as the client wishes, and ensure that the property is always in perfect order. Our personalized attention covers unforeseen events and resolves any issues that may arise before they become a problem.
Administrative requirements
The business relationship established between Lodging Management and companies that rent apartments for their employees facilitates administrative management. This means that your employee can focus his energy and time on his job without worrying about documentation or payments for the apartment. The invoices generated by the property are issued in the name of Lodging Management, as well as the electricity, water, gas and Internet services included in the rent.
Extra services
Lodging Management can also provide extra services to employees staying in rental apartments. If their work schedule leaves little time for going to the supermarket or doing the laundry, these premium services can be added into the package. We get the best prices for our providers because we are already using these services for our short-term rental tourism apartments.
Exciting neighborhoods
Your employees should feel content in their temporary rental apartment. That’s why we strive to offer unique experiences to our tenants that will have them remember their time in Barcelona fondly. When adding apartments to our portfolio, one of the first aspects we review is the location of the property. Barcelona is an incredibly attractive city, but like any large city it has areas that are more interesting than others. At Lodging Management, we have business apartments in charming, lively neighborhoods with plenty of cultural activity and where it’s a pleasure to go for a walk or meet friends. We also look for strategic locations that enable easy movement throughout the city and a quick commute to meetings or business events.
