In Luxembourg, the price of an Airbnb concierge service is generally between 20% and 25% of net rental income, depending on the level of service, the length of stays and the number of properties entrusted.

Concierge services operating in Luxembourg often charge a commission of around 25% (incl. VAT) on rentals of less than a month, with a sliding rate for longer stays or owners entrusting several properties. Beyond the percentage, the real deciding factor is what is included: listing creation and optimisation, dynamic pricing, check-in/check-out, professional cleaning, linen supply, light maintenance and guest support 7 days a week. At Sweethome Conciergerie, every plan is detailed so you know exactly what your commission covers.

According to market data, a short-term rental in Luxembourg generates on average around €3,124 per month, with an average occupancy rate of 80% and an average nightly rate of around €130.

This figure is a market average: actual income depends heavily on the neighbourhood (Kirchberg, Gare, Clausen, Grund…), the property's capacity, the quality of the decor and the pricing strategy in place. A well-positioned flat, with professional photos and suitable dynamic pricing, can far exceed this average. Conversely, a poorly optimised property will stay below it. The European short-term rental market is stabilising in 2025-2026, which makes operational optimisation even more decisive for performance.

To choose the right concierge service in Luxembourg, compare four key criteria: transparent commissions, the quality of cleaning and linen, the ability to optimise prices in real time, and responsiveness to guest requests.

A good provider should be able to tell you clearly whether cleaning fees are included in the commission or billed separately to the guest, whether it offers a sliding commission for owners with several properties, and how it actually handles unexpected issues and maintenance. In Luxembourg, demand comes from tourism, business travel linked to the European institutions and expats in transition: a local concierge service must understand these different guest profiles to position your listing properly.

Yes, every short-term rental must be declared to the municipality in Luxembourg. In addition, since 1 September 2023, beyond 90 cumulative nights a year the activity is considered commercial and requires a business permit.

In practice, the owner-host must declare the property to the mayor (bourgmestre), stating the maximum number of guests and providing a floor plan. Below 90 nights a year (over a rolling 12-month period), the activity remains occasional and does not require a business permit. Beyond this threshold, you will need a business permit for accommodation, a VAT number, guest registration forms and a general declaration. In addition, if annual takings exceed €50,000 (the threshold in force since 1 January 2025), VAT at the reduced rate of 3% applies. Finally, in residential zone 1 or where co-ownership rules are restrictive, letting may be limited to a maximum of 89 nights. All rental income must be declared for tax purposes.

Rental management means delegating the operation of your property to a professional under a mandate, while you remain the owner or direct landlord. Subletting means a tenant re-lets the property to a third party, which involves a different legal framework.

In Luxembourg, most leases expressly exclude subletting (article 1717 of the Luxembourg Civil Code). A Luxembourg court has already ruled that repeated Airbnb lettings breached a lease containing a no-subletting clause. For an owner who wants to keep control of their property, rental management through a concierge service is usually the simplest and safest model. Sweethome Conciergerie offers both plans, concierge management and subletting, to suit your situation.

In Luxembourg, cleaning between two stays is usually billed separately from the concierge commission and charged directly to the guest through the booking platform.

The price depends on the floor area, the number of beds, the linen to be replaced and the level of preparation required. What matters is comparing what is really included: a simple clean or a full service with linen replacement, restocking of consumables and a quality check before every arrival. At Sweethome Conciergerie, cleaning is carried out by professionals trained to hotel standards, with a systematic check of every property.

Yes, Sweethome Conciergerie coordinates guest emergencies in Luxembourg, including outside business hours.

Whether it is a problem accessing the property, a technical incident (leak, heating breakdown, jammed lock) or a guest needing help during their stay, our team brings in the right person at the right time. The goal is twofold: to secure the guest experience and protect your ratings and reviews, and to protect your property by acting quickly.

Yes, it is possible, but several conditions must be met: a declaration to the mayor (bourgmestre), compliance with the co-ownership rules and, if you are a tenant, checking that your lease does not prohibit subletting.

In Luxembourg, short-term rental is governed by general contract law and by the law on tourist accommodation. Converting a residential home into tourist accommodation may require authorisation from the mayor (bourgmestre) (article 37 of the amended law of 19 July 2004). You should also check the co-ownership rules: unless explicitly prohibited, letting is generally allowed, except where there is a residential-only clause. Finally, remember the tax side: all rental income must be declared.

Income from short-term rentals in Luxembourg must be declared in the annual tax return, by 31 March of the following year at the latest.

It is taxed as rental income. If takings exceed €50,000 a year (the threshold in force since 1 January 2025), VAT at the reduced rate of 3% applies to the rentals. For a non-resident owner, the situation also depends on their turnover across the European Union: have it checked by an accountant. In return, expenses directly linked to the accommodation (welcome products, cleaning, equipment) become deductible. The tax treatment also depends on the nature of the activity: occasional (fewer than 90 nights a year) or commercial (beyond that). For a commercial activity, the tax and accounting obligations are stricter.

Yes, unless the co-ownership rules expressly prohibit it. Without a restrictive clause, Airbnb letting is generally allowed in a co-owned unit in Luxembourg.

A co-owner may freely use their private units, subject to the purpose of the building set out in the co-ownership rules (article 2 of the amended law of 16 May 1975). Beware, however, of residential-only clauses, which prohibit any commercial activity and could be invoked against repeated short-term letting. Before you start, check your co-ownership rules and ask your building manager.
