The traditional gift that makes the fifth anniversary is wood so this week, the team planted a new tree in ‘Pigeon Park,’ just a short walk from the serviced apartments in St James Parade.
This follows a party earlier this year, where guests enjoyed a complimentary swim at the nearby Thermae Bath Spa, also celebrating its fifth anniversary.
Karen Sheppard, apartment manager at SACO Bath, said: “Since we restored the building in 2006 to open the apartments, it’s been one of our top leisure locations in the UK and in more recent years one of our top business locations.
“After five successful years it seemed fitting to give something back to the city that marks our commitment.”
The 43 serviced apartments housed in an entire Georgian terrace on St James Parade have been one of the company’s most successful locations in the UK for both business and leisure travellers.
The company’s most recent financial results placed SACO Bath as the company’s top leisure destination in the UK with 4,757 night stays and the second most popular business destination with 7,946 night stays.
The number of nights stayed at SACO, across all locations were up last year by 28 per cent to 194,184 night stays, increasing turnover by 38 per cent, from £13m to £18m.
The company has also opened its 30th location in the UK, tripled the number of apartment locations in London and appointed the 150th employee.
The selection of individually designed studios and one and two bedroom apartments are graded 4* under the Serviced Apartment category by Visit Britain.
The apartments are ideal for guests who require a central location, space, flexibility and privacy.
SACO now has apartments in 30 locations across the UK and through its international network offers more choice to travellers with access to over 12,000 apartments across 35 countries Worldwide.
