All you need to know about Derby
Derby had a key role to play in the Industrial Revolution with its rapid advancements in engineering, meaning it was able to assert itself as a dominant component in the UK economy. After the invention of railways in the 19th Century, Derby – being one of the most central UK cities – became a centre for the British rail industry and further advanced its economic position. Today, Derby is home to Rolls-Royce, the world’s second largest aero-engine manufacturer, so retains its status as a centre for advanced transport production. As an important business destination, finding a Derby serviced apartment to suit your requirements is the first step in ensuring a successful business trip to the area.

Why choose a SilverDoor Derby apartment?
We pride ourselves on service and believe that guest experience is just as important as the apartment we source.

What is a serviced apartment?
For years, business travellers suffered from a dearth of suitable accommodation options for when they needed to travel for corporate commitments. Hotel accommodation in Derby was far too cramped and inflexible so serviced accommodation was built to be tailored towards to specific needs of the travelling professional. Effortlessly combining the luxuries of hotel stays, with the privacy and flexibility of a private rental, serviced accommodation features a range of benefits; including:
· Space. With an entire apartment to yourself, your Derby serviced apartment can easily become your base from which to live and work effectively in the city. Relax, sleep, cook, work, exercise and host all from the comfort of your own space with separate living, sleeping and dining areas all regularly cleaned keeping things neat and tidy.
· On-site amenities. Your normal routine should not have to be compromised when you are away on business, and with the luxury additional benefits of serviced accommodation buildings, it doesn’t have to be. If your trip would be improved by an on-site gym to keep up your fitness regime, or a dry cleaning service to ensure you look sharp for important meetings, ask our booking teams and they will select an option that suits you.
