Common questions

How much does a room to rent cost in Ireland?

It depends a lot on the area. From live ads on StayLister: Co. Dublin usually €983–€1,268 a month. See the rent guide for each area.

Can I rent a room in Ireland for just a few weeks?

Yes. Short-term ads are for a few weeks to a few months, with stays of 22 nights or more, and each one shows its minimum stay and the dates it's free. You agree the details directly with the advertiser.

Do short-term hosts need a registration number?

Under new rules planned by the Government (the law is still going through the Oireachtas), anyone letting a room or home for 21 nights or fewer through a website must register with Fáilte Ireland's short-term letting register by 31 December 2026, and show the registration number in the ad. Stays longer than 21 nights are not short-term lets under this law, and every stay on StayLister is 22 nights or more, so hosts here don't need the number for these ads.

Is it free to advertise a room in Ireland?

Yes. Posting an ad on StayLister is free: there are no ad fees, so nothing is lost if plans change. Every ad is checked before it goes live, and if we send one back we say why and how to fix it.

How do I avoid rental scams?

Never pay a deposit before you've seen the place and met the person, be wary of prices far below the area's usual rent, and don't send money by transfer services to people you haven't met. StayLister checks every ad and shows when a price is unusually low. Read our guide to avoiding rental scams for more.
