Same flat.
Different approach.

When Sarah came to us, her New Town flat was on a long-term tenancy. Stable but she suspected she was leaving a lot of money on the table every month. Here's what changed.

Why rent your flat to EdinBnB?

We don’t just manage your flat; instead, we make sure you earn the most out of it. 

EdinBnB

With over 15 years of professional experience in Airbnb and short-let management in Edinburgh and around the globe, we stand out from the rest of the companies on the market by handling all vacancy risks and boosting your rental income

Any questions about EdinBnB and our mission?

EdinBnB becomes your tenant and manages your Edinburgh Airbnb, and you keep the profits.

Do I need a licence to run an Airbnb in Edinburgh?

Yes. Every short-term let property in Edinburgh must have a Short-Term Let Licence issued by the City of Edinburgh Council. New hosts need a licence before taking bookings, and existing hosts must have applied by 1 October 2023. From 1 January 2025, all lets must be licensed to operate legally.

How much commission does EdinBnB charge?

We operate on a transparent 20% commission model, with no hidden fees. You keep 80% of your rental income, and we manage everything — listings, guest communication, cleaning, maintenance, and compliance.

What platforms will my property be listed on?

Your flat will be promoted on Airbnb, Booking.com, Expedia, and Vrbo and more, ensuring maximum visibility and occupancy all year round.

How does EdinBnB optimise my income?

EdinBnB uses dynamic pricing tools that adjust nightly rates based on local demand, seasonality, and events like the Edinburgh Festival, helping you achieve the best possible return on your property.

Do I need planning permission to let my property short-term?

If your property is a secondary letting (not your main home) in Edinburgh, you may need planning permission because the entire city is a Short-Term Let Control Area. EdinBnB can assess your case and guide you through the process.

How do I get paid as a landlord with EdinBnB?

You receive monthly payouts directly to your bank account, along with a full performance report showing occupancy, income, and expenses for complete transparency.

Why choose EdinBnB over other Airbnb management companies in Edinburgh?

Because we combine local expertise, full licensing compliance, and a transparent 20% commission model. With EdinBnB, you earn more, stay compliant, and enjoy a hands-off, worry-free experience.

It's been such a pleasant experience! Our flat is always booked, and the cleaning standards are excellent. It feels good to know guests are looked after properly.

What I like most is how personal their approach is. It never feels like you're just a number. They actually check in, ask how things are going, and send little updates about improvements or guest feedback. It's a nice touch.

Great experience so far! They know the Edinburgh market well, especially for short stays. The photos they did for my listing are stunning — bookings picked up right away after that.

Everything with EdinBnB just runs smoothly. I get paid on time, guests are happy, and the flat looks better than ever. It's nice having a team you can actually trust to do what they say.

After managing my own Airbnb for two years, I decided to hand it over to EdinBnB and it was the best decision I've made in ages. They're reliable, responsive, and genuinely know how to maximise occupancy without any hassle on my end.

I was sceptical about the 20% fee at first, but once I saw how much time and stress it saved me, I understood. They handle everything down to the tiniest detail. It's completely hands-off for me, and I love that.

My flat has been managed by EdinBnB for six months now. Every guest review has been positive, and I haven't had to worry about a single thing. It's nice to work with people who genuinely care about what they do.

I've tried other companies before but none were this organised. The communication is quick, the team actually listens, and my occupancy rate has gone up noticeably since switching. Can't recommend them enough.

What really stood out for me was how transparent they are. No hidden fees, no vague reports — just clear updates every month and proper care for the property. Feels like they actually respect both owners and guests, which is rare.

I moved abroad last year and needed someone reliable to manage my flat in New Town. EdinBnB was recommended by a friend, and they've been brilliant. Everything is handled — cleaning, guests, pricing, you name it. I barely even need to check in anymore.

I rent out my flat and the EdinBnB crew has been a dream to work with. They're quick, efficient, and always keep me updated. My place has never looked so good, and I'm earning more than I did with long-term tenants.

The team at EdinBnB are amazing. I was completely new to short lets and had no idea where to start. They helped me set everything up, took beautiful photos, and handled the listing. It's such a relief not having to deal with guests or messages at midnight!

I've been with EdinBnB for nearly a year now and honestly can't fault them. They took over my flat in Haymarket when I was struggling to manage it myself. Since then, bookings have been steady, the guests are respectful, and the flat's always left spotless. Totally worth it.
