Accommodation for film and TV production crews, sorted.
Shoot blocks, unit bases and rotating crews - we source accommodation close to the studio or location so your production can focus on the schedule, not the logistics.
Film and TV productions run on tight schedules and shifting call sheets. Crew accommodation needs to be sourced fast, kept close to the studio or unit base, and able to flex as the schedule changes. Grove Workstays handles the sourcing and management so your production office can stay focused on the shoot.
Sound familiar?
The accommodation problems we solve.
Short lead times
A shoot is confirmed weeks out and dozens of crew need somewhere to stay for the block. Sourcing that many rooms at once, close to the studio or unit base, is not something a production coordinator should be doing on top of everything else.
Crew turnover between blocks
Different departments join and leave at different points in the schedule. Managing check-ins and check-outs across a rotating crew, while keeping a single point of contact, pulls focus from the shoot.
Proximity to studio or unit base
Hotels near a studio fill up fast once a production is in town, and crew scattered across the area adds unnecessary travel time before an early call. Accommodation needs to work for the schedule, not the other way around.

Block bookings for crew
Tell us the studio or unit base location, crew size and shoot dates and we start sourcing straight away - whether that's a handful of rooms or accommodation for a full crew.
Flexible around the schedule
Production schedules shift. We arrange accommodation on terms that can flex as call sheets change, extensions come up, or a block wraps early.

Common questions
Frequently asked questions.
Can you source accommodation for a full production crew?+
Yes. We can source multiple properties for a crew booking, coordinated so the team stays close together near the studio or unit base. Tell us the numbers and dates and we'll get options back to you.
How quickly can you arrange accommodation once a shoot is confirmed?+
Production schedules are often confirmed at short notice. Get in touch as soon as dates and crew numbers are known and we'll start sourcing straight away.
Can accommodation flex if the schedule changes?+
Yes. We arrange bookings on terms that can flex as call sheets and schedules change, so an extended block or an early wrap doesn't leave you stuck with a fixed booking.
Do you invoice production accounts directly?+
Yes - we can invoice the production company directly, which is typically more straightforward for production accounting than individual crew expenses.
