From Student Digs to Stylish Stays: Converting Student Lets for Airbnb Income
Student rentals don’t have to sit empty in summer. With the rise of tourism, business travel, and events across Bristol and Bath, landlords are increasingly turning to short-term lets to fill the gap.
Here’s how to convert your student let into a stylish, high-performing Airbnb listing with full support from the Host & Co team.
Why Convert to Airbnb?
✔️ Earn income during summer holidays
✔️ Avoid vacant property risks
✔️ Appeal to tourists, digital nomads, and festival goers
✔️ Try short-term letting without committing long-term

Student housing needs a reset. Our partner team does a full top-to-bottom clean, including stain removal, bathrooms, and kitchens.
2. Furniture & Styling
We help you elevate the space with minimal upgrades. Think fresh bedding, neutral décor, and simple touches that make it guest-ready.
