About Urban Rest
Our Story
Accommodation for the modern traveller
Flexible living, built for business travel
Urban Rest is a design-led flexible accommodation platform built for the way people travel for work. Founded in Sydney in 2017, we offer a better alternative for the modern traveller - those seeking comfort, space, and a sense of home, whether they're away for a few nights or a few months.
We operate a curated collection of premium, tech-enabled apartments across Australia, New Zealand, and the UK, located in vibrant neighbourhoods where guests enjoy the balance between work and life. Our apartments offer 30% more space than a hotel, with thoughtfully designed interiors, full kitchens, laundry, fast Wi-Fi, premium amenities, and 24/7 support. Pet-friendly options and flexible terms are built in because we understand how people actually travel today, whether relocating, working remotely, or staying longer.
We partner with property owners and developers to operate these boutique apartments in high-demand cities, delivering professionally managed, technology-enabled stays that combine apartment comfort with hotel-quality service. Our digital-first platform makes everything seamless: transparent pricing, instant booking, streamlined check-in, and round-the-clock support.
With over 1,000 corporate clients trusting us for their accommodation needs and expanding across Europe, Urban Rest is redefining how people live and work away from home.

The future of flexible living
Our Vision
We're scaling rapidly across Australasia and Europe with one goal: to be recognised as the most trusted flexible living and corporate accommodation provider in every market we enter. In just a few years, Urban Rest has grown at remarkable speed, expanding our footprint, scaling our global team, and continually redefining the guest experience.
We're tech-enabled and people-focused, creating seamless stays designed around comfort and sustainability. Every property sits in vibrant, well-connected locations where you can feel at home while experiencing the best of each city.
We partner with property owners and developers to bring Urban Rest to cities worldwide, unlocking value through corporate demand and expert operations.
Backed by a fast-growing, highly talented team across Australia, New Zealand, the UK, Ireland, Vietnam, and the Philippines, we're pushing boundaries and setting a new standard in accommodation.
We're only just getting started.
Our Impact
Beyond our stays, we're committed to giving back to the communities we operate in. We partner with Make-A-Wish Australia and Dreams2Live4 to help turn dreams into reality for young people facing life-threatening illnesses. It's one way we put our values into action beyond our apartments.
We also make intentional choices about the products and partners we bring into our apartments. We provide Peloton equipment to give guests access to fitness classes. We stock brands like Who Gives A Crap and Tripod Coffee because they're certified B-Corps creating sustainable alternatives to conventional products. We're proud to give our guests access to products and experiences we'd choose ourselves.
