Flexi|Apartments has added Southampton and the City of London to the locations in which it provides serviced accommodation.

In Southampton, there are a number of large, blue-chip companies regularly in need of flexible accommodation for their employees. Says Flexi|Apartments' director, Carole Charge, "Whilst there is currently some serviced accommodation in Southampton, it does not generally meet the standards and expectations of these high-calibre companies. We are looking forward to filling this gap in the market."

Flexi|Apartments prides itself on the quality of the accommodation it offers. All its apartments are located in the new developments in town or city centres or waterfront locations. They have a top-quality finish and luxury, contemporary-style furnishings, and are equipped with fully-fitted kitchens, TV, Freeview or Sky, DVD player, telephone and broadband.

In London, Flexi|Apartments can offer spacious apartments right in the heart of the City for what it describes as a fraction of the cost of a city-centre hotel. These can be booked on a nightly basis. Says Carole Charge, "This is a cost-effective way for companies to provide short-term accomodation for their employees compared with using hotels. We give them the comfort, space and freedom of a home, but with the flexibility and ease of booking of a hotel."

Flexi|Apartments was established in Surrey four years ago. The service is now available in Woking, Guildford, Croydon, Crawley and Bracknell, as well as London and Southampton.
