Eurovision 2023: Airbnb host tried to increase rent from £465 to over £2,000
Airbnb hosts in Liverpool are being warned not to try to hike prices on stays already booked ahead of the Eurovision Song Contest. Roy Henry said his host tried to raise the price from £465 to £2,046 when they realised his stay was for the event. "If the host said, look, I made a genuine mistake, can I increase it by a small amount, say £50 a night, I would have been fine with that."But my mortgage in London is less a month than what people are being expected to pay for a few days. Airbnb said his host is not allowed to relist the property for Eurovision. Airbnb said it had seen an increase in people listing their properties since Liverpool was announced as the Eurovision host city because it would be "An economic lifeline for many battling rising living costs".
