Knightsbridge Airbnb management for a mews house near Harrods
This Knightsbridge Airbnb management case study covers a quaint two-bedroom mews house in Knightsbridge, SW3. It is within walking distance of Harrods.
Inside the house
The main bedroom is a large master with a four-poster bed and an en-suite bathroom. There is a second double bedroom, a sitting room, and a dining area with a sofa bed, so the house sleeps five. The rooms are bright and airy, and the kitchen is fully equipped. A private, sculpture-filled patio gives guests somewhere to sit outside. Families are catered for with a crib, and the main bedroom and its bathroom have step-free access. Guests check themselves in with a lockbox. The house has central heating, a washing machine, Wi-Fi and a TV.
The location
Harrods is two minutes away. Imperial College, the V&A Museum, and the Royal Brompton and Royal Marsden hospitals are all close by. That makes the house a good fit for both leisure and business stays. Guests describe the area as peaceful and easy to get around.
The owner’s goal
The owner lives abroad in Brazil and wanted fully hands-off management of the property. They also wanted to optimise the income from a great location.
What Luxhost did
Luxhost helped prepare the property for renting. That included recommendations on installing air conditioning and improving the blackout blinds in the bedrooms. We now manage it in full on the owner’s behalf.
Day-to-day management
Because the owner is overseas, Luxhost runs everything day to day: the calendar, check-in and check-out, phone support for guests, cleaning and linen, and maintenance. The owner can follow occupancy and earnings through our online portal.
The results
- £8,000 to £10,000 per calendar month on average, with a peak of £12,000
- £4,000 to £5,000 per calendar month is what it would achieve as a long-term let
- 85% average occupancy
- A highest nightly rate of £600
Who stays
Guests are typically tourists, often young couples.
