Operations
SilverDoor represents over 320,000 serviced apartments in more than 1,200 cities around the globe. The company works with over 1,600 property partners by marketing their serviced apartments on their website, financed by commission.
In October 2010 the company joined the Hotel Booking Agents Association, a trade body that brings together serviced apartment buyers and suppliers to develop and promote best practices.
From 2008, SilverDoor ran a £150 Attendance Bonus scheme, a monthly supplement encouraging employees to be no more than a minute late to work, despite any legitimate public transport constraints. With its workforce comprised predominantly of new graduates on minimal salaries, the scheme proved a helpful stipend for those who qualified.
