As a contractor working away from home, one of the most important decisions you’ll make is choosing where to stay. Many contractors initially consider booking a hotel room, but increasingly, serviced accommodation is becoming the go-to choice. It offers distinct advantages over traditional hotels, especially for those staying in Hull for an extended period. Here’s why contractors prefer serviced accommodation over hotels for their long-term stays, and how BettoAS can provide the ideal solution for your needs.
1. Home-Like Comfort and Space
One of the biggest reasons contractors opt for serviced accommodation is the sense of home it provides. Hotels, while convenient, often feel impersonal and cramped, offering little more than a bed, a desk, and a bathroom. In contrast, serviced accommodation is designed to be lived in, not just slept in.
At BettoAS, our properties are spacious, fully furnished homes that feel comfortable and cozy. Whether you’re staying for a few weeks or a few months, you'll enjoy the luxury of a separate living room, kitchen, and bedroom—perfect for both work and relaxation. The extra space allows contractors to spread out, store their work equipment, and maintain their personal routine, just like they would at home. This level of comfort and space is something hotels simply can’t match.
2. Full Kitchens for Convenience and Savings
Hotels often come with the perk of on-site restaurants, but dining out for every meal can quickly add up, both financially and in terms of health. For contractors, especially those who are staying for extended periods, having a fully-equipped kitchen in their serviced accommodation is invaluable.
BettoAS properties come with modern kitchens, stocked with everything you need to prepare your own meals. Whether you prefer to cook a home-cooked dinner after a long day or whip up a quick breakfast before heading to your job site, having a kitchen allows you to maintain a healthy diet and save money. Not only does this flexibility give you more control over your meals, but it also lets you enjoy the comfort of eating familiar foods that remind you of home.
3. Increased Privacy and Flexibility
Unlike hotels, where you may have to deal with noisy neighbours or the constant presence of hotel staff, serviced accommodation offers a higher level of privacy. Many contractors prefer the self-contained nature of serviced accommodation, as it provides the space and freedom to relax without interruptions.
With BettoAS, you won’t have to worry about housekeeping knocking on your door every day or dealing with other guests in communal areas. You have full control over when to clean, when to relax, and how to organize your space, giving you the privacy and autonomy you need to feel at ease.
Additionally, serviced accommodation offers greater flexibility. You can come and go as you please, cook whenever it suits you, and live according to your own schedule. This level of independence is highly appealing to contractors who often have irregular hours and need to maintain a flexible routine.
4. Cost-Effectiveness for Longer Stays
When staying in Hull for an extended period, the cost of booking a hotel room for weeks or months at a time can quickly become prohibitively expensive. While hotels may offer discounted rates for long-term stays, the price is still higher than that of serviced accommodation.
Serviced accommodation, on the other hand, typically offers better value for money, especially for contractors. The longer you stay, the more cost-effective serviced accommodation becomes. With BettoAS, you’ll pay a competitive rate for an entire property, which includes utilities, internet, and cleaning services (when requested), without the hidden costs of extras like meals, parking, and laundry services that you’d encounter in a hotel.
Not only does serviced accommodation help save money, but it also ensures that contractors get more value for their money by offering greater space and more home-like amenities.
5. Access to Essential Amenities
Another major advantage of serviced accommodation is the wide range of amenities available. While hotels often only offer basic services like a bed, shower, and maybe a gym or restaurant, serviced accommodation properties are equipped with everything you need for a comfortable and convenient stay.
At BettoAS, we provide all the essential amenities contractors need to feel settled and comfortable, including:
High-speed Wi-Fi for remote working or staying in touch with family and friends
Fully equipped kitchens for cooking meals
Laundry facilities in the property or nearby, so you can do your laundry at your convenience
Parking spaces on-site or nearby (for an additional charge in central Hull)
Regular cleaning services when requested, so your space stays tidy without the hassle
These amenities help contractors live as comfortably as possible, ensuring they can focus on their work while maintaining a sense of normalcy during their time away from home.
6. Supportive, Local Service
When staying in a hotel, you may not have much support beyond the front desk or staff. However, serviced accommodation providers like BettoAS offer a more personalized, supportive experience. We understand the needs of contractors and strive to ensure that everything about your stay is as convenient and comfortable as possible.
If you have any questions, need help with anything, or require additional services, our team is always ready to assist you. Whether it’s providing recommendations for local restaurants or helping with any maintenance issues, BettoAS offers the kind of local support that makes a real difference in your stay.
7. A Better Work-Life Balance
Staying in a hotel for an extended period can make it difficult to establish a proper work-life balance. Hotel rooms often lack the space and amenities needed to relax or work efficiently. In contrast, serviced accommodation provides more freedom to create a balanced lifestyle.
With BettoAS, you can work in a quiet, comfortable environment, cook your own meals, and even unwind in the evenings with your favourite shows or hobbies. Having more space and amenities at your disposal allows you to maintain your regular routine and feel more settled, even when you're far from home. This balance helps to reduce stress and improve both your work performance and personal well-being.
8. The Comfort of a Local Experience
Staying in a serviced apartment also gives contractors a more authentic local experience compared to a hotel. When you book with BettoAS, you're staying in properties that are located in residential neighborhoods, offering a more authentic experience of living in Hull. You can explore the local area, get to know the shops and cafes nearby, and experience life in Hull as a local.
Many contractors enjoy the sense of community they feel when staying in serviced accommodation. It helps them feel more integrated into the city, making it easier to explore and enjoy everything Hull has to offer outside of work.
