Why daily rentals are growing
Short-trip travellers, exam-season students, and people trialling a neighbourhood all want something cheaper than hotels and more private than guesthouses.
Owners should know
- Continuous daily rentals may fall under the Hotel Act — check the exemption for ≤8 rooms / ≤30 guests
- Price daily rates at roughly 1/15 to 1/20 of the monthly rate
- Prepare linens, basics, and a cleaning routine
For tenants
Booking a few nights before signing a long lease is a smart trial run — you experience the noise, neighbours, and rush-hour commute first-hand.
