At Home offers business and leisure travelers not just rooms but entire fully-serviced, good quality apartments - at very attractive rates. For travelers (especially those with families in tow) seeking accommodation in the vicinity of Hi-Tec City, At Home offers excellent deals.
Renting a 2-bedroom apartment here costs Rs. 3,000 per 24 hours (a 1-bedroom costs Rs. 2,000, while a 3-bedroom costs Rs. 4,500 - there are 19 apartments in all), which is less than the cost of a guest room at, say, competitor
Mapple Inn (Rs. 3,250 is Mapple's lowest rate).
Not only is Rs. 3,000 then giving you more room for less, the usual frills make the deal seem sweeter - complimentary breakfast, 24-hour hot water facility, house-keeping, round-the-clock security etc. You can even make your stay more comfortable by availing of certain services (these cost extra) such as laundry, access to hi-speed broadband Internet etc. They also offer value-added services, like serving restaurant food in your apartment, buying groceries for you upon request etc.
The kitchens in the apartments are equipped with a refrigerator, cutlery, cookware, microwave, coffee-maker and more. The furnishings - sofa sets, TV sets (with cable TV), dining tables et al - are in good condition. The bedrooms themselves are air-conditioned and spic-and-span. In what is clearly a bedroom for children, the beds are neatly laid out using soft cotton sheets etched with cartoon characters.
It is through these warm touches that At Home succeeds in coming closer to being a comfortable home-away-from-home, rather than being the clinical affair that most traveler accommodations are.
