The Boutique Brand of Corporate Housing

If you’ve ever visited a major metropolitan area, you already know that hotel rates can be very expensive. Along with the expense, cramped spaces, revolving-door atmosphere, and inconvenience, hotel living is rarely optimal for anyone staying longer than a few days. For something altogether different with a cost that beats hotels, consider corporate housing.

The market for corporate apartments began to boom in the early 1990s. It is now a $2.5 billion international industry, with over 80,000 furnished apartments for rent in the United States. Furnished Quarters has filled this niche by encouraging consumers to have a different stay. They have become one of the largest providers of temporary furnished apartments in New York City.

Founded in 1998, Furnished Quarters has expanded its service to include over 1,000 units in New York, New Jersey, and Massachusetts, and more specifically in Manhattan, White Plains, Jersey City, Hoboken and the Boston/Cambridge area. Steve Brown, CEO of Furnished Quarters, refers to the company as the boutique brand of corporate housing and the benchmark for comfort, convenience, contemporary designs, excellent service, and first rate amenities.

Furnished Quarters provides an expanding selection of stylish contemporary apartments located in trendy neighborhoods, close to businesses and commercial districts. A minimum 30-day stay is required for an authentic and private residential experience in these chic and convenient living spaces. Residents are offered 24-hour customer service, a fully furnished apartment, luxury linens, full kitchen, housekeeping, and laundry facilities. Building amenities like fitness center, swimming pool, and meeting rooms are featured in a number of Furnished Quarters locations. Strategic locations near business and entertainment centers for easy commuting are an added benefit.

With all the comforts of home and the convenience of a hotel, these apartments cost 30-50% less than a hotel. An average cost of $300 per night for a New York hotel room pales in comparison to a $200 daily rental fee for a luxurious temporary furnished apartment. There’s no contest for anyone seeking the value of a full apartment with privacy, 24-hour customer service, and ample living space to entertain, work, or just hang out.
Corporations offer luxury furnished housing apartments as incentives to their employees, clients, and business partners. In the past decade, Furnished Quarters has secured over 26,000 bookings for Fortune 100 companies, celebrities, leisure travelers and relocating families.

Temporary furnished housing has become a necessity to corporations and travelers who aim to save money, especially during the current financial climate. This industry will continue to give the hotelier a healthy dose of competition for extended corporate and leisure travel.
