We Get It

Sound Familiar?

Wasting Hours Searching

Trawling through Airbnb, Booking.com, and hotel sites for weeks trying to find somewhere that can take your whole team — at a price that doesn’t blow your budget.

Last-Minute Cancellations

Hotels overbooked. Airbnb host cancelled. Your team arrives on Monday with nowhere to stay, and you’re scrambling to fix it.

Hidden Costs Adding Up

The nightly rate looked fine, but then came the cleaning fees, service charges, council tax, and utility bills. The “affordable” option isn’t so affordable anymore.

We built Red Steps to solve exactly these problems. Here’s how we do it.

All-Inclusive

Everything Your Team Needs, All Included

Every Red Steps property comes fully furnished and ready to move into from day one. We don’t believe in surprise charges — our all-inclusive pricing covers everything so you can budget with confidence.

The Smart Choice

Why Red Steps Beats the Alternatives

Save 40-50% on Costs

vs Hotels

Hotels charge premium nightly rates, especially for extended stays. Our properties are priced for medium and long-term bookings, saving your project thousands.

vs Airbnb

Airbnb rates creep up with cleaning fees, service charges, and seasonal pricing. Our all-inclusive rates mean what you see is what you pay.

Built for Teams, Not Tourists

vs Hotels

Booking 20 hotel rooms means 20 separate check-ins, no shared space, and a disconnected team. Our properties house teams together with shared living areas and kitchens.

vs Airbnb

Airbnb hosts aren’t set up for contractor teams — strict house rules, noise complaints, and cancellations are common. We work exclusively with workforce clients.

A Dedicated Account Manager

vs Hotels

Call a hotel reception and hope for the best. With Red Steps, you get a named contact who knows your project, your team, and your requirements.

vs Airbnb

Airbnb support is automated and slow. Your Red Steps account manager picks up the phone and gets things sorted.

Adaptable Solutions

Flexible Stays That Fit Your Project

Projects don’t always go to plan — timelines shift, teams grow, and locations change. That’s why we offer genuinely flexible accommodation that adapts with your project.

Need to extend a booking by three months? Done. Team doubled in size overnight? We’ll source additional properties. Project moved to a different site? We’ll relocate your accommodation. No penalties, no drama — just a quick conversation with your account manager.

Monday-Friday Stays

Only need accommodation on weeknights? No problem — we offer weekday-only bookings so your team can head home at weekends.

Short & Long Term

From one week to two years, we’ll match the booking to your project timeline.

Scale Up or Down

Add or reduce properties as your team size changes — we flex with you.
