LIFE AT NIDO

1/0

OUR HOMES, SHAPED BY YOU

Here’s the truth. Most property brands are as good as each other. Great rooms, fast wi-fi, comparable pricing, easy locations. We offer security, prompt service and cool common areas… and we deliver. You’ve got lots of choice.

Here’s the Nido difference. Our eyes are on the future. Not of our business, but of the planet and its people. We know that those who live with us will shape tomorrow. They’re going to make the world kinder, more sustainable, healthier, smarter.

Life at Nido

We know you want to live in a place that feels like home, where you can bring old friends or make new ones. Our living spaces are designed to create communities, so come join us and be part of life at Nido.

Living

We know that good locations, super-fast WiFi and excellent service are important to you, so those things come as standard at Nido.

This year’s IWD theme is #AccelerateAction

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY

I have stayed at certain other extended stays, but as far as I am concerned Nido is being the best in the wi-fi, the maintenance, the peaceful environment and the staffs to support and guide you at all your needs throughout your stay. Far away from home but still this place feels home.
