When business calls for out-of-town work, you simply can't imagine leaving your family behind. Which means your accommodations must be flexible enough to cater to their needs as well.

You should check in to Somerset Serviced Residence.
Traveling with the family for extended periods of time can take its toll — even for the most seasoned traveler. Whether it’s for business or leisure, everyone is prone to feeling the stresses of activity-planning, homesickness, and the dreaded “cabin fever.”

Fortunately, there are ways to make long travels with the family a pleasurable experience!

Accommodation
Finding the place you’ll be calling home for the next few weeks is critical. No one wants to be stuck in a stuffy, cramped room the size of a shoebox. Instead, look into serviced residences: they’re generally 30% larger than hotel rooms, with ample space for both work and leisure. Somerset serviced residences have spacious living rooms and separate sleeping areas—giving you enough space to avoid feeling claustrophobic. Apartment sizes start from 70 square meters for a one-bedroom and can go up to 240 square meters for a three-bedroom. And in certain countries, like Somerset Park Suanplu Bangkok in Thailand, each apartment comes with a balcony.

Make it feel

Like home

Hotels can be cold, stiff, and generally unfriendly. Nothing beats the warmth and comfort of a homey ambiance. Somerset provides that “home away from home” atmosphere, with comfortable furniture and thoughtful decor. Aside from the fully equipped kitchen, each apartment has a master bedroom, an en-suite bathroom, separate living and dining areas, washer and dryer.

Stick to your

Routine

A break in your usual routine can cause major homesickness. Try your best to recreate your usual schedule back home. Your friendly Ascott Host can help you find exactly what you need: whether it’s yoga first thing in the morning, high tea at 3pm, or the best place to get a vegan, gluten-free dinner. Feeling a bit more adventurous? You’re in luck: Ascott Hosts take note of each guest’s preferences, giving them recommendations tailored to what they’re into.

Eat like A

Local

To truly know a community and its culture, you need to dive into its traditional cuisine. One of the best things about staying in Somerset is its strategic location in the city. You’re surrounded by some of the best restaurants and cafes. Your Ascott Hosts will gladly recommend the best restaurants to visit, according to what you’re craving. You can also put that fully-equipped kitchenette to use! Staying at Somerset means you’re only a few steps away from local markets and grocery stores, so it’s easy to pick up ingredients and try your hand at cooking some of the local dishes.

entertain your new

Friends

Whether you’re relocating, or simply on a business trip, having a place to entertain colleagues is a must. Instead of the usual “dinner and drinks”, why not invite them over to your apartment? Nothing beats a home-cooked meal in a relaxing, homey environment. Plus, the apartments’ spacious dining and living areas are ideal for guests with families to stay in comfort for extended periods of time.
Surround yourself with
People who care
Being around people who are warm and friendly is key to feeling comfortable when away from home. Somerset provides customized experiences for their guests, making your stay even more meaningful. They love celebrating special occasions and life events with their guests, be it bringing a cake and balloons to the apartment for a birthday or popping a champagne to ring in the New Year. They’ve also been known to throw in a surprise or two, like giving all mothers a complimentary manicure and pedicure session on Mother’s Day. And of course, 24-hour assistance is always just a phone call away.
