Thinking of enjoying an extended stay in Dubai? Long-stay accommodation comes with a multitude of perks that local and international travellers get to enjoy! As long stays in serviced hotel rooms, villas and aparthotels continue to grow in popularity, we thought we’d break down the key benefits of extended stay accommodation in this vibrant city. Read on to find out what you can look forward to!

  • Fully furnished living

Whether you’re planning on enjoying a vacation in Dubai, visiting for business or permanently moving to this bustling metropolis, finding stylish, comfortable and cosy lodging is key for that home away from home experience! Long-stay accommodation in Dubai’s variety of hotels, villas and aparthotels comes with the benefit of furnished living. Nothing is worse than staying in a lifeless environment, and coming home to a welcoming apartment or hotel room means you get to avoid the hassle of seeking out furniture to kit out your temporary (or long-term) home—not to mention the price tag attached!

  • Access to hotel services

Serviced living is all the craze, and for the right reasons! We can’t think of anything better than living in the privacy of your long-stay accommodation and being able to take advantage of all the hotel services at the same time. Head out for work in the morning and come home to a clean hotel apartment or hotel room - it doesn’t get any better than this. Guests who opt for long-stay offers also gain access to the maintenance, reception desk, security and other hotel services available. Bonus!

  • Enjoy the ability to predict your expenses

Normal living conditions often equate to a hefty and mostly unpredictable list of expenses at the end of every month. WiFi, electricity and water bills—over and above the mortgage and other monthly living costs—can be a rather daunting thought, particularly in Dubai where the cost of living can be pricey. Save yourself the trouble of expensive living with a single consolidated bill at the end of every month when you choose to go the long-stay route.

  • Save on monthly leisure fees

If you’re an avid gym bunny or enjoy being able to go for a run, swimming and other leisurely activities, why pay for a gym membership or the likes when it’s all included in your stay? Extended stay offers at hotels give you access to all the hotel’s facilities too, such as the on-site gym, sauna and steam rooms, communal areas like a games room, pools and more. Cut down your budget even further by omitting specific external membership costs and enjoying an all-inclusive experience instead.

  • Less is more with F&B

Everyone knows that food costs in Dubai can be on the pricier side. Unfortunately, we all need to eat, so this is hardly an expense we can just avoid every month! Monthly hotel stay offers generally come with Food & Beverage discounts at participating dining outlets and on-site restaurants, bars and delis. Guests get to enjoy delicious local and international cuisine at a fraction of the price. Need we say more?

  • Stay fresh for less

Keep your clothing crisp and fresh with discounts on hotel laundry services or opt for the convenience of doing your own laundry on-site with self-service laundromats, where applicable. Say goodbye to hauling bucketloads of laundry to and from your place of residence and simply make use of the on-site facilities at your hotel or aparthotel instead! If you’re not big on ironing, the laundry services available at certain hotels will ensure you get to have your clothing cleaned and freshly pressed for you instead.

  • Location and parking for the win

Staying close to Dubai’s metro stations is just one of the many perks of choosing long-stay accommodation at a hotel in the city. If you don’t own your own vehicle, then being able to get to work or experience the glamour of Dubai’s highlight attractions is made possible with trusty metro stations around every turn! Guests who own a car know how difficult it can be to secure a parking spot in the city. Monthly hotel offers tend to include on-site parking for the ultimate convenience. Either way, you get the best of both worlds.

  • Prepare your own meals

Nothing beats home-cooked food! If you choose a hotel that features rooms with a built-in kitchenette, you get to prepare your very own hearty breakfasts, lunches and/or dinners. In-room kitchenettes typically come equipped with a fridge, microwave, and other handy kitchen equipment and appliances that make it easy for you to cook and store your food. Dining out on a daily basis can be very expensive during an extended stay, so unless you can afford it, we recommend choosing a long-stay package at a hotel or aparthotel that gives you access to your own kitchenette.

  • Added flexibility, no long-term commitments

Explore the best that Dubai has to offer when you hop from one hotel to another while enjoying the monthly long-stay packages! Avoid having to commit to a lease that requires you to stay for a specific period of time and mitigate the risk of a difficult landlord with monthly hotel packages.

  • Conduct your business meetings professionally

Many hotels have facilities for meetings and conferences, giving you access to these on-site facilities if you’re on a business trip and need to host a brainstorming session or professional meeting. You get to make use of the professional facilities and equipment for the ultimate meeting or conference experience.
