When it comes to choosing the right corporate accommodation options for relocating employees and foreign staff on secondment in Asia, HR teams are spoiled for choice today.
Often, the top priority for companies is to select a property that will help ensure that staff undergo a smooth transition into their new workplaces and roles. This is one of the main reason why clients – Fortune 500 companies included – love working with Frasers Hospitality. They know that their people will be left in good hands whenever they stay at any of the group’s serviced apartments in Singapore or across Asia-Pacific.
A common request from relocating employees is close proximity to their office or workplace. With that in mind, one of the most attractive features of Frasers Hospitality’s properties is their prime locations.
Take Frasers Residence Orchard, Singapore, for example. This sits right on the cusp of Orchard Road, one of Southeast Asia’s most renowned shopping and commercial districts. Residents are within walking distance of international malls such as ION Orchard and Paragon, as well as a wide range of business headquarters and the world-class medical facilities of Mount Elizabeth Hospital and Paragon Medical Centre.
Two other properties – Fraser Suites Singapore and Fraser Place Robertson Walk (pictured) – are also located along the city fringe, and they provide guests with easy access to the Central Business District, home to the many local and regional hubs of many more global organisations.
“The central location of our properties is a great advantage to business executives as it helps reduce unnecessary time spent commuting to work,” says Clara Beng, General Manager, Frasers Hospitality in Singapore. “The convenience of being located near the city’s shopping, dining, and leisure amenities also enhances their whole experience of living overseas.”
For employees with families, Frasers properties offer many child-friendly facilities and services, including playrooms, babysitting services, and a full calendar of social activities that help the entire family settle in.
A social atmosphere
Adjusting to a new environment and country is always difficult, but the accommodation provider makes that transition easier by organising specially curated events such as monthly residents’ nights and outings. These provide guests with plenty of opportunities to befriend and interact with each other, while also expanding their social circles.
After a long day at work, guests can also unwind at “The Retreat”, with body and feet massaging machines always available. Other lifestyle amenities include a 24-hour gymnasium, swimming pool, sauna and steam rooms, outdoor recreational facilities, residents’ lounges, and restaurants with a choice of healthy menu options, all of which provide corporate travelers with a multitude of ways to recharge.
The option of customisation is also an appealing factor for clients, and why Frasers has so many repeat customers, says Beng.
For example, besides working out an accommodation package that meets the needs of a recent group booking from one of its Fortune 500 clientele, she said her team was able to further customise the offer to cater for a bus transfer to shuttle employees from the serviced apartments to the office every day.
“We try our best to come up with well-tailored solutions, so that we are able to meet all the needs and budget requirements of each and every client,” says Beng.
“This is why Frasers Hospitality has been at the forefront of offering memorable experiences to guests through our Gold-Standard serviced hotel residences and boutique lifestyle hotels across Asia for over 20 years.”
