Staycity Aparthotels, one of Europe's leading Aparthotel operators, offering almost 3,000 apartments in major cities across the United Kingdom, Ireland, and France, has become the latest group to join HotelREZ Hotels & Resorts' portfolio. The hotels will be represented on the GDS under HotelREZ's HO chain code.

Staycity Aparthotels, which was founded in Dublin in 2004, offers a stylish, modern, and user-friendly alternative to the traditional hotel experience, combining the very best service with a private, 'home away from home' environment. With convenient, central locations in cities including Birmingham, Dublin, Edinburgh, Liverpool, London, Lyon, Manchester, Marseille, Paris, and York, these apartments offer the best access to some of the finest destinations in Europe. In addition, Staycity has plans to expand its operation to even more locations over the next five years.

Each apartment is fully furnished, equipped with stylish self-catering kitchen facilities and complimentary Wi-Fi as standard. 24-hour reception desks, laundry facilities, and – in some properties – on-site cafés and gyms, help the chain differentiate itself from other accommodation providers. These unique selling points have also helped Staycity to acquire an excellent reputation, including winning a TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence award for five consecutive years.

Of this new partnership, Micheal Stapleton, Group Revenue Manager at Staycity Aparthotels, said: 'It's an exciting period in Staycity's development, and we wanted to be sure that the quality of our group representation matched our business's ambition. HotelREZ is a trusted name when it comes to GDS representation and we were sold on their reputation, their impeccable professionalism, their high-level of service, and their access to the best technology in the market. They are able to provide us with the superb GDS representation as well as the approachable account management service we are were looking for.'

In addition, Staycity will shortly be launching a new premium brand, Wilde Aparthotels by Staycity. The first property will open on the Strand in London later this year. A second Wilde property, due to open in 2019, has recently been announced in the heart of Edinburgh, at the base of Castle Rock along King's Stables Road. Several more Wilde properties are in the works over the next 18 months.

As many as seventeen different Staycity Aparthotels are now available to book on the GDS via HotelREZ's HO chain code, its online booking website and call centre.
