Travel and hospitality website Airbnb has launched a new service aimed at attracting business travellers.

Big business

Airbnb now features a portal that lists accommodation set up for everything the business traveller might need – from instant bookings to WiFi.

Only entire apartments or houses will appear in search results.

Bill it

Airbnb has partnered with business expense company Concur so business clients can automatically add their Airbnb costs to expense reports. 

Happy travels

The update seems like a win all round.

If Airbnb can lure more of the lucrative corporate travel market it will be very good for business. 

And for road warriors, those long hours might be made easier by staying somewhere a bit more homely than a Best Western.
