Dream firm launches ‘Stay-Test-Go’

The new pioneering offering allows guests staying with Dream Apartments across the UK, including Belfast’s Obel Tower, to get a rapid government approved Covid-19 test, with results available in one hour, which if proved negative, allows a pre or post ‘Fit to Fly’ certificate accepted around the world, and a reduction in self-isolation time, from 10 days, to five.

The testing is carried out by BioGrad Laboratories, a UK company who are leading the way in the global fight against Covid-19, providing Dream Luxury Serviced Apartments guests with the only government approved, state of the art antigen and antibody testing facility available.

Speaking about the initiative, Tom Smyth, Managing Director of Dream Luxury Serviced Apartments said: “We are absolutely thrilled to offer this new Covid-19 testing facility to our guests across the UK which will help give essential travellers across the world a reduction in precious time spent quarantining after travelling between different countries and cities.

“Rapid testing is the future in allowing essential business and travel to continue as safely as possible. Guests can now get the test while staying in our properties, self-isolate for just five days with us, and if the test proves negative, they will be issued with a ‘Fit to Fly’ certificate which is accepted around the world.

“The last 10 months have undoubtedly been the most challenging period in business history, and we want to play our part in ensuring that our guests are able to continue to travel efficiently, safely and with the added peace of mind of fast, reliable, government approved testing.

“Our business is strong, and we have evolved and adapted quickly to ensure we deliver what people need. We can offer safe, accessible, luxury, self-catering accommodation at an affordable price with keyless check-ins and fast Covid-19 testing in all our cities across the UK.”

Planning for the future, Tom concluded: “We look forward to commencing the ‘Stay-Test-Go’ facility to all of our UK cities with immediate effect.”
