Hotels, guest houses or self catering are the traditional choice for those seeking tourist accomodation in the Isle of Man.
But now the Department of Tourism is adding a new classifaction - Serviced Apartments.
Guests will have the accomodation cleaned and changed during their stay and be able to call on a 24-hour concierge service.
It's a potential concern for traditional providers, already unhappy that Homestay rooms are becoming a first port-of-call among TT visitors.
But Theo Fleurby from the Manx Hospitality Partnership says the Island is only moving with the times:
Meningitis B vaccination scheme to be rolled out on-Island
Balthane Roundabout plans on hold until 2027/28 as costs rise
Port St Mary lifeboat launched to rescue stricken fishing vessel
Enquiries ongoing after 'shotgun-like sound' heard near Police Headquarters
