By Claire Morel 08/12/2026

Municipalities are cracking down, inspections are on the rise, and the profitability of short-term rentals is being eroded by new legal and tax obligations. ...

Room for rent: find your place with a private host

Renting a furnished room from a private host is currently one of the simplest and most affordable ways to find housing, whether it's for a few nights, a semester of study, or a professional assignment lasting several months. Since 2009, Roomlala has been connecting millions of hosts and tenants in France and throughout Europe: homestays, shared housing, coliving, guest rooms, and entire homes.

An option for every need

Whether you're a student looking for housing near your campus, an apprentice living in two cities, a young professional on the move, an employee on a business trip, or a traveler eager to live like a local, there is an option to suit every situation and budget. Renting a room helps significantly reduce your rent while enjoying a home that is already furnished and equipped, without the cumbersome processes of a standard rental.

Rent with confidence

On Roomlala, host and tenant profiles are verified, past occupants leave reviews, and both booking and payment are handled securely online. You can communicate directly and for free with the host before booking to ask any questions you may have and agree on the terms of your stay. For hosts, publishing a listing is free: it's a simple way to make money from a spare room while keeping control over who you welcome into your home.

From major cities like Paris, Lyon, or Brussels to student towns and tourist destinations, thousands of rooms for rent are waiting for you, for both short and long-term stays.
