We’ve Gone Global: Urban Space is Now Live on GDS

Cardiff, News

The Urban Space collection is now available to book via the Global Distribution System (GDS).

For our regular guests, this might sound like industry jargon. But for our corporate partners, travel agents, and travel management companies (TMCs), this is a game-changer.

It means that whether you are a travel agent in New York, a PA in London, or a corporate booker in Cardiff, you can now access our live availability and rates instantly on the platforms you use every day, including Amadeus, Sabre, Galileo, and Worldspan.

What This Means for You

If you book travel for a living, you know the pain of managing independent accommodation. Emails, availability checks, and manual invoices take time.

By connecting to the GDS, we’ve removed the friction.

  • Real-Time Availability: No more ‘request to book’. See exactly which apartments are free at Park Lane in seconds.
  • Instant Confirmation: Secure your team’s accommodation immediately without waiting for a callback.
  • Standardised Booking: Your booking flows directly into your travel management software, making reporting and expense tracking seamless.

Why We Made the Move

We have always specialised in Business Stays – hosting project teams, construction crews, and relocating professionals.

But as our portfolio has grown to over 100 apartments across Cardiff and The Vale, so has the demand from larger multinational clients. Joining the GDS allows us to serve these global partners with the efficiency of a major hotel chain, while keeping the personality and flexibility of an independent brand.

Find US on your system

You can now find all our Cardiff locations listed under the Urban Space brand code.

  • Perfect for corporate HQs and city projects.
  • Ideal for media teams and long-term project groups.
  • The strategic choice for contractors and local industry.

(Note to agents: If you need our specific chain codes for Amadeus/Sabre, drop us an email!)

Still Prefer the Personal Touch?

While we love the efficiency of the GDS, we haven’t lost our human touch. If you are looking for a negotiated corporate rate, a long-term construction stay, or a takeover for a large event, dealing direct is often still the best way to get a bespoke price.

You can still reach our reservations team directly for complex requirements. We are just making sure that for the simple stuff, you can book us with the click of a button.
