Absolutely! In 2024, more than 19 million international tourists visited London, ranking London as the world’s third most visited city. Projections show the figure could rise to 20.1 million in 2025. There were nearly 90k listings in London in 2025 with an average annual revenue of £40k per property and an average daily rate of £214 (Data source: www.airdna.co)
London's airbnb's have been performing very well this year. There are nearly 90k active short-term rental listings, daily rate is at £214. Average annual revenue per listing is £40.4k, which is £3366 per month, and increase of +4% vs 2024.
In 2025 there are 61k listings with availability in London on airbnb, this doesn't include other platforms like booking.com. 62% were 1-bedroom apartments and only 24% were 2-bedroom apartments, that are currently in the highest demand. So if you're property is 2-bedrooms or more - you won't have any problems filling up the available dates!
Since January 2025 the number of listings has been growing steadily in line with the growing demand for short-term rentals in London.
Setting up a clear goal and objective to get the most out of your Airbnb property.
Running a short or medium-term rental apartment or a house gives you the flexibility to use it yourself occasionally when required and also generates a higher yield than a traditional long term rental model.
Running a short-term rental property is time consuming and requires specialist knowledge, especially how to market it across multiple platforms like airbnb and booking.com. Engaging a management company saves you time and hassle.
Central London, mainly zones 1 and 2, have the highest demand for short to medium-term rental homes and tend to perform the best in our portfolio, generating around 30% than long-term rental revenue. However, we are open to consider other locations in London, that are not so central, but still attractive to short-term renters - for example Balham, Stratford, Highgate, Wimbledon to mention a few.
We will aim to meet most of our guests in person at the apartment and show them around, when possible. However we have alternative key collection solutions at all of our properties - either a lockbox installed on site or a 24/7 collection service provided by our partner KeyNest.com
Our housekeeping team will schedule cleaning on the day guests move out, we’ll also get our linen rental partner to collect used linen and deliver fresh ones, including towels. Cleaning and linen fee is paid by the guest and is added on top of accommodation revenue, so there is no cost for you.
We will collect guests’ accommodation payments to our Safeguarded Client Deposit Account, prepare a monthly report with all the booking details, which is available for you to see on client dashboard online, then deduct our commission and make a monthly transfer to your account.
We have our in-house handyman for any general works that need to be done, however if it’s something a little more complex we’ll always consult you and can arrange specialised tradespeople to attend - e.g. boiler technician, certified plumber etc.
Not necessarily, as long as your personal items can be stored securely in a wardrobe or a storage room - you can still leave them in your property, it is your home after all.
Absolutely, all our hosts have access to a dashboard where they can block off the nights for personal use, as well as view financial data for all the upcoming reservations and payouts.
The 90-day rule means that London's property owners need planning permission if they want to let out their property for more than 90 days per calendar year. Only airbnb currently delists the property once the 90 days have been reached, other platforms like booking.com or vrbo leave this up to the property owner to manage. Furthemore, medium-term reservations that are 90-days or longer don't count as short-term so by doing a mixture of these we can achieve overall occupancy of up to 90-95% throughout the year.
