Introduction
In the vibrant heart of Newport city centre, a remarkable story of growth and strategic hospitality unfolds with Crescent Apartments.
The journey of Crescent Apartments truly began to take shape following an insightful meeting with Danielle, one of the owners. It was clear from the outset that we shared similar mindsets and goals, particularly in providing outstanding hospitality and creating exceptional guest experiences.
Located at 140 Lower Dock Street, Newport, the property stands in a prime area close to the bustling Friar’s Walk and High Street, and walking distance to Royal Gwent's Hospital making it an attractive destination for a wide variety of guests. Danielle’s previous work as an interior designer for signature hotels, showcasing meticulous attention to detail and a flair for creating inviting spaces, signaled that we were embarking on something special.
Emboldened by this synergy of vision and expertise, the owners entrusted us with their first apartment in November 2022. This initial trust was a testament to their confidence in our capabilities. The success of this venture led to the addition of a second apartment in May 2023. Now, as we approach February 2024, we are excited about the integration of a third apartment, marking a significant expansion of our collaboration and the continued growth of Crescent Apartments.
The birth of Crescent Apartments was more than just a business decision; it was a leap of faith into a future brimming with possibilities. This collaboration with AirFreedom was not just about building city centre apartments; it was about creating experiences, shaping memories, and setting a new standard in the realm of serviced accommodation.
