For a six-week retail fit-out, the headline hotel rate is only part of the cost.
A shopfitting team staying for 42 nights can quickly turn “simple” accommodation into a procurement headache:
Hotel
• 42 nights charged per person
• Separate rooms and nightly rates
• Parking often unavailable or charged extra
• No kitchen, creating additional meal costs
• Multiple bookings, receipts and invoices
Serviced accommodation
• One agreed weekly rate across the stay
• Multi-bedroom homes for the team
• Parking and proper cooking facilities
• More space to rest, plan and reset between shifts
• One invoice and a single point of contact
For a clear comparison, calculate the hotel nightly rate × number of people × 42 nights, then add parking, meals and administration. Compare this with six weekly rates for a suitably located home.
The result can mean greater cost control, less administration and a more comfortable base for the fit-out team.
