Best Months
Uplift
July
+25%
Summer peaks from June to August (with July the strongest), followed by a solid uplift in November–December thanks to the Christmas Markets and festive shopping. Expect short-lead surges around the August Bank Holiday and Pride, plus frequent concert and football weekends. Business travel is notably strong from September to November and January to March, driven by conferences and universities. Weekends typically book 2–4 weeks out, midweeks 7–21 days, so keep minimum stays flexible to capture late demand.
Notes: ADR, occupancy, seasonality and uplift based on Houst portfolio & industry benchmarks.
‘Uplift’ = typical revenue improvement we see after professional setup and smart pricing, benchmarked across our portfolio and industry data.
Figures above are based on a representative two-bedroom, one-bath property; performance will vary by home, area and season.
