Family Accommodation for House Moves and Completion Delays in Rugby
When the completion date slips, the chain breaks, or the new place isn’t ready, you need somewhere for the whole family to stay — with the kids, the dog, and whatever the removal van couldn’t take to storage. Apart Hotel Rugby is built for that in-between stay: family-sized apartments with a full kitchen, self check-in 24/7, free parking, pet-friendly rooms, and free 14-day cancellation for when dates move again.
House moves rarely go exactly to plan. Completion dates slip by days or weeks. A chain breaks and everyone has to wait. You’ve sold and moved out, but the new place isn’t ready to move into. Renovation work on the new home overruns. Any of these can leave a family suddenly needing somewhere comfortable to stay — not for a single night, but potentially for a week or two, with children, pets and a car full of essentials.
Apart Hotel Rugby is well suited to these between-homes stays. Unlike a standard hotel room, our apartments have proper kitchens, space for a family to actually live rather than just sleep, and the flexibility that a moving family needs when nothing about the timeline is certain. Self check-in 24/7 means it doesn’t matter that the move finished at 9pm; free 14-day cancellation means you’re not penalised when the completion date shifts again.
Why Apart Hotel Rugby works for a house move
Family-sized apartments
The Deluxe Apartment fits a family of four with a fully equipped kitchen and space to spread out — not a cramped hotel room, but somewhere a family can genuinely live for a week or two during the move.
24/7 zelf inchecken
Moving days never finish on schedule. With a smart-lock door code (the last 4 digits of your reservation), you arrive whenever the van is finally unloaded — no reception desk to catch, no matter how late the day runs.
Pet-friendly rooms
Selected ground-floor rooms are pet-friendly, so the family dog stays with you through the move rather than going into kennels — one less thing to arrange during an already stressful time.
Flexible dates
Free 14-day cancellation and weekly rates from 7 nights mean you can book with confidence even when the completion date is uncertain, and extend easily if the gap runs longer than expected.
A comfortable base while you’re between homes
A house move is one of the most stressful things a family does, and an accommodation gap in the middle of it makes everything harder. Where do the kids sleep? Where does the dog go? How do you feed everyone when the kitchen’s packed into boxes? Where do you park two cars? How do you do laundry when the washing machine is in transit?
Apart Hotel Rugby answers all of those at once. A proper kitchen so you can cook family meals, space for children, pet-friendly ground-floor rooms, free on-site parking, and free guest laundry on the first floor. It turns a stressful gap into a manageable pause — a place to regroup while the move sorts itself out.

- Family-sized Deluxe Apartment — fits a family of four with a fully equipped kitchen
- 24/7 zelf inchecken via smart lock — arrive whenever the moving day finally ends
- Keukentjes met inductiekookplaat in every room — cook proper family meals, not endless takeaways
- Gratis parkeren op het terrein (6 spaces) plus free Railway Terrace street parking 18:00–08:00 — room for the family car
- Gratis wasfaciliteiten voor gasten on the first floor, 24/7 — essential when your washing machine is in transit or storage

Room types for a family move
Luxe appartement
The natural choice for a family move — largest option, fully equipped kitchen, fits a family of four in one unit. Space for parents and children to live comfortably during the gap.
Premium Studio
Full conventional oven and 3-in-1 microwave/oven/grill — proper cooking for a smaller family or a couple, with the full kitchen a real move needs.
Deluxe Studio
More space and natural light, comfortable seating. Good for a couple or a single parent with one child during a shorter between-homes stay.
Kleine studio / Tweepersoonskamer
Compact and economical, with kitchenette and en-suite. An option for a solo mover or as an additional room alongside a family apartment.
Longer gaps and multiple rooms
Sometimes the gap between homes stretches from a few days to a few weeks — a chain that keeps slipping, a renovation that overruns, or a purchase that falls through and has to be rebuilt. If that happens, our weekly rates from 7 nights (with free housekeeping) make a longer stay far more affordable than nightly hotel pricing, and you can settle into the same apartment for the duration rather than moving again.
For larger families, or where grandparents are helping with the move and childcare, we can also coordinate more than one room in the same booking. Contact us directly with your situation — even if the dates are uncertain — and we’ll help you book flexibly so you’re covered whichever way the completion date moves.
Not sure how many nights? Book what you know, and extend as the picture becomes clearer. Free 14-day cancellation gives you room to adjust.

- Pack an “essentials” bag for the stay — clothes, chargers, kids’ and pets’ basics — kept separate from storage

- Mention the dog when booking so we allocate a pet-friendly ground-floor room
- Let op de DIRECT-code for up to 25% off with free 14-day cancellation
During the stay
- Zelf inchecken op elk gewenst tijdstip — your door code works whenever the moving day ends

- Extend if needed — contact us directly if the completion date slips again
