Rent your spare room for the 2012 Olympics
With the Olympics coming up in 2012, it’s a great opportunity to let out your spare rooms, either for the duration or for specific days and events. Many visitors, from the UK and abroad, will be looking for a ‘home from home’ rather than drab and expensive hotel rooms in the run up to, during and after, the Olympics. Bearing in mind that hotel prices are set to be around £250 a night, and the number of visitors looking for a bed (and maybe breakfast!) during the events, alternative accommodation will be hotly sought after.
Visitors won’t just be looking for rooms in and around London. Are you near one of the other sporting centres? Are you somewhere commutable to London? Are you somewhere people might like to visit while they’re in the UK? Simply state which London train station your local rail operator services.
From just £49.95, you can advertise your room for 3 months (or, for even greater value, £59.95 for a 6 month listing) – the earlier you advertise, the quicker you’ll attract those that are looking to arrange their accommodation for their ticketed events.
- An opportunity to rent rooms on a daily, weekly or full-event basis.
- Guideline prices are around £100 per night for up to double occupancy.
- Offer rooms outside of London by stating which London station your local rail operator services
- We also recommend increasing value by offering breakfast or perhaps a lift to the station on the relevant mornings.
