Longstay
Extended Stays Belong Inside Your Managed Program. Now They Do.
Project assignments. Training deployments. Temporary relocations. Stays of eight nights or more represent a real and growing share of your lodging spend – and the biggest leakage gap in corporate travel. HRS Connect closes it.
Status quo
Why extended stay keeps falling outside your managed program
A lack of suitable accomodations
67% of travel managers cite lack of suitable properties as the primary reason longstay bookings leak. Standard hotel catalogs don't include the serviced apartments and apartment-like accommodations that project travelers actually need for multi-week stays. Without the right inventory, even a compliant traveler has no compliant option.
Your OBE was built for transient travel
Online booking engines weren't designed and optimized for extended stays. The system has no relevant filters, no duration-based pricing, no ability to surface kitchens, laundry facilities, or apartment-style accommodation. The tool simply doesn't serve the need — so the traveler goes elsewhere.
Slow, manual processes
Submitting forms, waiting for customer success agents to respond, and relying on manual hotel outreach. That friction doesn't reduce demand. It just pushes spend off-program.
Why HRS
The smart way to manage stays
With HRS, both transient and longstay bookings are handled digitally, end-to-end, in one place. Offering countless advantages for travelers, bookers, planners, and accountants alike.
Beneftis
Bring longstay inside the managed ecosystem – where it belongs
HRS closes the structural gap in corporate lodging programs by extending managed infrastructure to cover extended stays – from procurement and booking through payment, invoicing, and VAT reclaim. All in one place.
Increase program adoption
When the right properties, the right filters, and a self-service booking experience exist inside the program, compliant booking becomes the path of least resistance.
Recapture spend that is currently invisible
Extended stay bookings are already happening in your organization. Bringing them inside the managed program gives you full visibility, policy coverage, and negotiating power over a blind spot.
Stronger ecosystem governance
When longstay bookings are inside the managed ecosystem, policies apply, travelers are covered by duty of care, invoices are centralized, and reporting is complete.
Smarter steering of your entire lodging spend
With longstay spend flowing through the managed program, procurement gains the visibility and data to negotiate with suppliers, track patterns, and make decisions across the full picture of lodging.
