Download a guide to help guests enjoy London safely

In 2016, the Airbnb community in London generated an estimated £1.3 billion in total economic impact, including guest spending and host income. Hosts on Airbnb across London welcomed 4.5m guests to the city and boroughs last year.

To continue promoting responsible tourism in London and across the United Kingdom, we want to provide hosts with a helpful tool they can pass on to guests as a reminder of how they can better live like Londoners while they’re in town.

Hosts can now download, print and share this helpful guide with travellers they host.

As a host, when you welcome a guest into your home you share so much more than your four walls with them. You’re sharing your building and borough as well. We hope this guide helps your guests enjoy staying in London responsibly. On the other side of the leaflet you’ll find space to leave your guests helpful information like emergency contact numbers and wifi passwords or your favourite local restaurant.

Happy hosting!

About Airbnb

Airbnb was born in 2007 when two Hosts welcomed three guests to their San Francisco home, and has since grown to 4 million Hosts who have welcomed more than 1 billion guest arrivals across over 220 countries and regions. Travel on Airbnb keeps more of the financial benefits of tourism with the people and places that make it happen. Airbnb has generated billions of dollars in earnings for Hosts, most of whom are individuals listing the homes in which they live. Among Hosts who report their gender, more than half are women, and one in five employed Hosts are either teachers or healthcare workers. Travel on Airbnb also has generated more than $4 billion in tax revenue around the world. Airbnb has helped advance more than 1,000 regulatory frameworks for short-term rentals, including in 80% of our top 200 geographies. In late 2020, to support our continued expansion and diversification, we launched the City Portal to provide governments with a one-stop shop that supports data sharing and compliance with local registration rules. We continue to invest in innovations and tools to support our ongoing work with governments around the world to advance travel that best serves communities.
