Room for rent: find your accommodation 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 is for a few nights, a semester of studies, or a multi-month professional assignment. Since 2009, Roomlala has connected millions of hosts and tenants in France and throughout Europe: homestays, shared housing, colivings, guest rooms, and entire homes.

An option for every need

Whether you are a student looking for housing near your campus, an apprentice with two residences, a young professional on the move, an employee on a business trip, or a traveler curious to live like a local: there is an option adapted to every situation and every budget. Renting a room allows you to significantly reduce your rent while enjoying a home that is already furnished and equipped, without the heavy administrative burden of a traditional rental.

Rent with confidence

On Roomlala, host and tenant profiles are verified, former 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 is a simple way to earn money from a spare room while maintaining 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.
