OpenAbout Grhum
GRHUM is Sanskrit for home. We are a B2B serviced accommodation agency: we hold direct agreements with operators and landlords across the UK and Ireland and place guests into them for insurers, housing providers, project contractors, employers, the NHS and production — and we bring the essence of home to every stay.
One system, one thread per stay — illustrative
How we think
Three things we do that most of the market doesn't — and three things we will never do.
Rate, availability and certificates agreed with the person who owns the keys.
School, commute, care, access, pets. Nearest available is rarely right; we match on what the household told us.
A duty team that can move a guest tonight, not a voicemail.
No per-booking bidding on nightly rate with whoever is loaded that morning.
Extension pricing is agreed before the stay starts.
Email, phone or WhatsApp. A postcode and a date are enough.
Our story
Grhum started in emergency and decant accommodation: the 11pm call when a family cannot sleep in their own house. Placing people well in that moment — near the school, near the job, with the dog — taught us everything about how a stay should run, and that discipline now serves insurers, housing providers, project crews, the NHS, relocating employees and productions across 136 locations.
Two founders, offices in London and Antrim, a duty desk that answers at 2am, and software we wrote ourselves because nothing on the market followed a stay from the first call to the last invoice.
Directly contracted stock and a search that starts from the site, not the nearest city.
Utilities, Wi-Fi, housekeeping and linen inside the rate — the Grhum Standard in every home.
Longer, better-matched placements mean fewer moves, fewer hotel nights and less waste.
Serviced accommodation on grhum.co.uk; corporate travel and distribution through Grhum Travel Solutions on grhum.com, in build.
How it works
No portal to learn and no procurement exercise to get started. A postcode, a date and a headcount are enough.
Postcode, dates, who is moving and what they need — by email, phone or WhatsApp.
In an emergency, if nothing suitable is free that night, a hotel booked through Grhum Travel Solutions bridges the first night while we search.
Contracted stock matched to school, commute, care, access and pets. Priced, held, moved into when it's right.
Extensions, moves, welfare checks and issues by the same team. One invoice.
A live property map around the requested postcode, ranked on distance, size, price and availability before a supplier is contacted.
Every requirement moves through a staged workflow with its own checklist, so anyone picking it up knows what has been done.
Supplier and client conversations stay together with a full audit trail.
Mid-stay contact, extension prompts and check-out reminders are scheduled automatically.
Invoices, supplier costs and payment status reconcile against the ledger.
Standards
Compliance documentation is held and current for every property we place into, and available for your own duty-of-care reporting.
Annual certificate for every property with a gas supply.
Five-year inspection reports, current.
Assessment, alarms and escape provision recorded per property.
Operator cover verified before the first booking.
Credentials
ISO 9001 and Cyber Essentials Plus certification are underway — ask for our current prequalification pack.
Need accommodation
Postcode, dates and how many beds are enough to start. We come back with contracted options and a price.
