Five reasons apartment hotels are the answer for a harmonious holiday
Avoid the hassle of a cramped holiday where everyone's on top of each other—three kids in one bed and no space for your suitcase is far from relaxing. Instead, enjoy a roomy, comfortable getaway at Oaks Hotels, Resorts, and Suites. With separate bedrooms, spacious kitchens, and cozy couches, you can spread out and truly unwind in style.
As multi-generational travel becomes more popular, families are increasingly sharing costs, celebrating special moments, or simply taking a break from the daily grind to enjoy rare quality time together. With grandparents often on hand for babysitting, parents can treat themselves to a much-needed night out or a spa day. That’s why accommodations with multiple bedrooms or interconnected apartment options are in high demand, offering a relaxing, "just like home" experience. To enhance that homey feel, Oaks Hotels, Resorts, and Suites provide in-room Foxtel, curated Menulog delivery menus from top local restaurants, and coffee machines with pods from The Coffee Club.
