Radisson Hotel Group is making a bigger play for corporate travelers who need accommodation for weeks or months rather than a typical two- or three-night business trip.
The company has launched Long Stays by Radisson Hotels, a global proposition bringing participating hotels and apartment-style properties under one commercial framework. Around 75 properties across Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Asia Pacific have already signed on, with participation optional for hotels that have the facilities and operational capacity to support longer stays.
The program is aimed primarily at travel management companies, relocation specialists and corporate travel buyers handling assignments such as employee relocations, infrastructure projects, consulting engagements, healthcare placements and new office openings.
Instead of negotiating separate agreements with individual hotels, corporate partners can access dedicated long-stay rates, standardized booking conditions and aligned commission structures across participating properties. Pricing is tiered according to length of stay, creating larger potential savings for longer bookings.
The proposition also connects with existing global distribution systems and corporate agreements, allowing companies to book through familiar procurement channels rather than adopting a separate platform. Eligible bookers and planners can earn an additional 20% Radisson Rewards points on qualifying reservations.
For guests, Radisson is trying to make extended stays feel less like living indefinitely in a conventional hotel room. Participating properties provide pre-arrival planning, dedicated hotel contacts, flexible housekeeping and in-room services adapted for longer-term use.
Apartment-style properties can provide kitchens and other residential features, while hotel facilities such as fitness centers, laundry services and dining options become increasingly important when guests remain for several weeks.
Radisson Chief Commercial Officer Gianni Di Fede said the goal is to simplify access to a market that is growing as corporate mobility patterns evolve. Director of Global Accounts Yovhanna Billard said the company wanted to create one promise across different brands and experiences rather than requiring businesses to navigate each property independently.
Dubai, Riyadh, Zurich and Amsterdam are among the markets where Radisson says extended-stay demand is particularly strong. All four attract international companies, project teams, consultants and relocating employees who may need temporary accommodation before transitioning into permanent housing.
The economics can also benefit hotel owners. Longer reservations provide predictable occupancy, reduce room turnover and can generate additional spending on food, laundry and other services.
Radisson’s move reflects a broader shift in hospitality. Extended stays are no longer limited to traditional serviced apartments or relocation housing. Major hotel groups increasingly see them as a distinct business opportunity sitting between hotels and residential accommodation.
For Radisson, the challenge will be delivering a genuinely consistent experience across different brands and markets. If it succeeds, the company could capture more of a corporate travel segment where a single reservation can last months instead of nights.
