West London, with its mix of heritage architecture, leafy residential zones, and vibrant cultural districts, is one of the capital’s most desirable short-let regions. With an average daily rate (ADR) of £185 and an occupancy rate of 75%, hosts in West London can generate an estimated monthly income of £2,500 per property. The area attracts a wide spectrum of guests—from business travellers seeking proximity to Heathrow and Paddington, to families and tourists exploring iconic areas like Notting Hill, Kensington, and Chiswick. The combination of strong demand, high guest spend, and year-round tourism makes West London an attractive market for Airbnb rentals.
Our team specialises in Airbnb property management across West London, providing short-term rental solutions in prime neighbourhoods such as Notting Hill, Kensington, Chelsea, Hammersmith, Chiswick, and Fulham.
From boutique flats in Chelsea to period homes in Chiswick, Houst manages every detail of your West London Airbnb rental. Our team handles guest support, pricing, cleaning, and compliance—so you can focus on returns, not logistics.
Adnan and Saurabh are the founders of Cherish Stays, a growing short-term rental operation serving West Greater London. Since launching their business in March 2023, they’ve expanded from an initial two-property setup to a ten-property portfolio—built on strategic growth and a deep understanding of guest expectations.
Leveraging a Rent-to-Rent model, they’ve been able to scale efficiently without large upfront capital, focusing instead on delivering reliable, high-performing stays across prime locations. Their success is underpinned by strong partnerships with local landlords and estate agents—relationships that keep their pipeline steady and their standards high.
We can have your property up and running in under a week. The amount of time it takes to list your property will depend on how quickly you can provide us with key information. If you’re committed to the process, it’ll take no time at all.
There are three key steps to our guest vetting process. Firstly, we always use official ID verification software to check that your guests are genuine. If the booking is taken through Airbnb, this is done through Airbnb’s own verification process. If the booking is through another platform, we use a third-party verification platform - giving you peace of mind (and more bookings!) when listing on multiple platforms.
Secondly, we use an application programming interface when taking payments from guests, allowing us to automatically identify any fraudulent activity. And lastly, our expert team is trained in identifying potential red flags. Our pros manually cross-reference guest details to triple-check a potential guest is genuine before accepting a booking.
15% (plus VAT/GST) of your total income goes to Airbnb. We charge our management fee (plus VAT/GST) on your gross platform earnings. This includes the booked nights and the cleaning fee.Our team will provide you with a property essentials checklist during the onboarding process which includes an initial stock of cleaning supplies and essentials for guests such as toilet paper, bin liners and toiletries. Our cleaning team will replenish these essentials as needed and items will be charged back at cost.
The guest covers the cost of the cleaning fee (which includes laundry) when making a reservation at your property. The cleaning fee is passed through to our suppliers (cleaners and laundry companies).
We provide guests with the check-in details via the platform, email and SMS leading up to the check-in. In the unlikely event that the guest has trouble getting into the home, we have guest services available 24/7 to help talk them through it.
As a general rule, we aim to respond to guests within 1 hour during business hours. This can be slightly delayed in the morning as we deal with enquiries received during the previous night. We also have on-call team members to help with any urgent guest matters outside of normal hours.
Let our team take care of your property - while you sit back and watch your earnings come in.
