🏨 Sonder - Aparthotels with Style

Next up, I want to talk about a new way to stay in style and comfort while traveling the world: Sonder apartment-hotels. I’m going to be trying a Sonder apartment myself on my next trip to Florida, so I’m really excited to share this find with you today, and I’ll report back on how the stay was in a few months.

What is Sonder, you ask? Well, it’s a short-term rental company that offers “apartment-style hotels” with modern designs and conveniences like stocked kitchens, luggage storage, and even fitness rooms.

Unlike Airbnb, which operates as a marketplace, Sonder leases, manages, and operates its properties, which are 60% apartment-style units and 40% hotel rooms. This means you can get the best of both worlds: the space and amenities of an apartment, and the service and quality of a hotel. 😍

Why is Sonder great for digital nomads? Here are some reasons:

• You can book online and explore over 40 cities around the world, from Chicago to London to New York City. Sonder has properties in different neighborhoods, so you can choose the one that suits your vibe and budget. 🌎

• You can stay longer and save up to 30%, with discounts starting at 7 nights. Sonder also offers a flexible cancellation policy on all reservations, so you can book with peace of mind. 💸

• You can work and relax in your own space, with fast WiFi, artisan coffee, and comfortable bedding. Each Sonder is designed for comfort and is equipped with a fully-equipped kitchen and in-suite laundry. You can also access neighborhood guides and 24/7 support via the app. 🙌

• You can enjoy the hotel amenities without the hotel formality. Sonder offers contactless check-in, professional cleaning, shower amenities, and boutique bathroom amenities. You can also request late checkout or fresh towels with just a tap. 🛀

• You can experience the local culture and creativity. Sonder’s properties are infused with award-winning design and unique features, such as murals, high ceilings, and window lines. You can stay in a historic building or a modern loft, depending on your preference. 🎨

Sounds amazing, right? If you’re interested in trying out Sonder for your next workcation, visit their website to learn more and book your stay. You can also follow them on Instagram to see some of their stunning spaces and happy guests.
