In the present state of the World economy long term luxury rentals are an obvious alternative to hotel accommodation. But why would you want an alternative? It’s all a matter of logic. The economy is in recession, companies are closing down, banks are being bailed out, top executives are still getting their ill-earned bonuses and everybody is having to tighten their belts.
 Hotel accommodation is very expensive – especially here in South Africa for the individual or company based here. Hotel prices are based on International standards, so what happens when the exchange rate escalates? Hotel accommodation prices go off the clock. Long term luxury rentals are an obvious answer, and Luxury Apartment Charter have a number of apartments in Johannesburg’s Parktown North suburb that are an ideal alternative to an hotel.
Parktown North is extremely central for all the amenities you could desire. Our long term luxury rentals are just a stone’s throw from the main urban highway that passes through the centre of the metropolis. That means that you would be ideally placed for the CBDs in both Sandton and Johannesburg.
Our long term luxury rentals are fully serviced and there is also a laundry service. They are very close to flea markets, top class restaurants, antique shops, fashion boutiques and shopping malls as well as being just a short distance from Johannesburg’s sports venues, golf clubs and conference centers. If there are any services that you need, Luxury Apartment Charter will be happy to organise them for you, whether it be a limo, a chauffeur, a chef or catered meals. All you have to do is to ask.
Our Johannesburg Furnished Apartments Are Ideal For Business Or Pleasure
Are Johannesburg furnished apartments an answer to a question nobody had asked or are they simply the best thing since, well, dreary hotel accommodation? We argue that they are the latter and we have very good reasons for it; reasons you may not have considered due to the fact that you had never been presented with a viable alternative to staying in yet another room at the end of yet another hotel hallway. People visiting Johannesburg now have a refreshingly different accommodation option.
Furnished Apartments: the Advantages
Johannesburg furnished apartments offer only advantages to hotel living and no disadvantages:
- The same five-star service, linen, furnishings and available services you get at the best hotels, plus a healthy dose of personalised service to add to the experience
- Very competitive rates over the short term and sizeable discounts over the longer term – the longer you stay, the less you pay
- Bearing in mind the last point, the business case for your business is most compelling: travelling executives forfeit nothing in terms of their accommodation standards over the extended term but the cost saving is significant over a hotel of similar standard
- Far more privacy and space than any hotel room, because you have an entire apartment at your disposal
The Savings in More Detail
When you stay in our Johannesburg furnished apartments, you only pay the standard day rate for a stay of one week or shorter; thereafter, the savings start. For a stay of more than a week, up to two weeks, the day rate is discounted to the tune of around twenty percent and for a stay of longer than two weeks but less than thirty days; another twenty percent discount over the standard day rate applies. Finally, for a stay of thirty days or longer, around another twenty percent comes off the day rate for a rate that is less than half the original day rate.
Where It All Started
But where does the idea of Johannesburg furnished apartments come from? Originally, the concept was conceived to cater for the requirements of travelling businesspeople and executives who required comfortable accommodation on extended business trips. The idea was to offer a home away from home in an apartment setup that has a fully fitted kitchen, a choice of bedrooms and layouts and a lounge at a long-term price saving over hotels of similar grading.
We still cater for this market, but our Johannesburg furnished apartments are now very popular among vacationers too.
