AKA offers sophisticated hotel accommodations and spacious furnished residences with exceptional business, wellness and lifestyle amenities. While there are a few well established brands in Europe and Asia, through years of experience in the furnished apartment business, Korman identified a significant lack of luxury accommodations in the United States. With a solid record of catering to savvy global travelers and a strong repeat business clientele, AKA is designed to meet this need in the most upscale of markets and is recognized as the leading provider of luxury long-term accommodations.

The brand’s clientele is generally in need of an accommodation from a few days to three months, and due to their profession or lifestyle, tend to have repeated needs. As leaders in long stay living, AKA introduced its core residential philosophies and sophisticated design to evolve the typical hotel stay into a higher-quality more livable experience – Hotel AKA.

Both AKA Hotel Residences and Hotel AKAs feature amenity spaces that provide an inviting environment to unwind quietly or engage with other residents. Thoughtfully designed fitness centers, lounges, work-spaces and cinemas are a natural extension of the room . AKA prides itself in its carefully selected food and beverage outlets, which features the work of world-renowned chefs including Greg Vernick, Ellen Yin, Wolfgang Puck and David Meyers.
