Length-of-Stay Discount
A length-of-stay discount is a pricing strategy where the nightly rate decreases as the booking duration increases, incentivizing guests to reserve for longer periods. Common structures include weekly discounts (typically 10-20% off for 7+ nights) and monthly discounts (typically 25-40% off for 28+ nights). Longer stays benefit property managers by reducing turnover frequency, lowering cleaning and operational costs per booking, and providing more predictable revenue. Length-of-stay discounts are especially effective for attracting remote workers, digital nomads, and mid-term rental guests. Hostaway and most OTAs support automated length-of-stay discount configuration, making it easy to set tiered pricing that adjusts automatically based on booking duration.
