Serviced Apartments are commercial properties providing typical hotel amenities and services and a flexible range of stay (from one night to six months). The range of amenities varies  depending on the individual concept. This concept makes them perfect for longer stays without legal or financial hurdles such as deposits or leases. Our Serviced Apartments have a larger range of alternative uses than typical hotels or residential complexes, thus providing a balanced risk profile. The Serviced Apartment concept makes it possible to offer smaller, dedicated investment packages across regions and resorts thus offering greater diversification and  liquidity for the Fund. Furthermore, Serviced Apartments enjoy a higher GOP benchmark when compared to a traditional hotel model.

The Alps has enjoyed decades of year on year growth in which time many innovative forms of hospitality have brought advantages to the market. Serviced Apartments combine both the flexibility of holiday apartments with the services and amenities of hotels and have demonstrated great resilience in the last few years. Serviced Apartments offer greater scope for a change of use at a later date than traditional hotels and residential complexes. This flexibility for later diversity has helped to establish Serviced Apartments as a new asset class offering investors better growth potential than with a traditional hotel and, most importantly, a balanced risk profile. By creating smaller investment packages of apartments across different regions and resorts we can increase the diversification and liquidity of our AlpenReal fund. Having now created the very first fund in this asset class Serviced Apartments in the Alpine DACH region, we consider ourselves to be pioneers in this field.

Serviced Apartments are resilient toward changes in demand, as we have seen during the recent pandemic. Serviced apartments differ from traditional hotels in that they have cooking facilities and enable their guests to keep a safe distance from other guests. Compared to business hotels, Serviced Apartments can provide for long-stay guests and for remote working. The streamlined staffing and service structure has compensated for the recent drop in earnings during the pandemic.
