Airbnb in Île-de-France: 52,900 homes let for over 120 days in 2025, twice the 2019 figure

In 2025, 52,900 entire homes were let on Airbnb for more than 120 days in Île-de-France, the region around Paris, twice as many as in 2019, according to Note rapide No. 1072, a short study by L’Institut Paris Region, the region’s urban planning agency. Total listings, meanwhile, fell after the Paris Games: 139,400 in 2025, against 168,400 in 2024. These figures are estimates drawn from data by Airdna, a short-term rental analytics firm, for Airbnb alone, and the institute presents them as lower bounds, in other words minimums.

Airbnb alone: what the study measures

The note is titled “Meublés de tourisme en Île-de-France : après les Jeux de Paris, la fête continue ?”, roughly “Tourist lets in Île-de-France: after the Paris Games, is the party still on?”. Signed by Emmanuel Trouillard, housing research officer at L’Institut Paris Region, it went online on 4 November 2026. It rests on Airdna data, an automated survey of listings tracked every month since 2016. Only Airbnb is included, to avoid duplicates.

Only active listings are counted, with at least one night booked over the period. Hotel listings are removed, along with aparthotels, mobility leases (short furnished tenancies) and long leases, campsites, mobile homes and unusual stays. The institute makes clear that these figures do not cover the whole market.

139,400 listings, fewer than in 2024

In 2025, Île-de-France had 139,400 active Airbnb listings, 51% of them in Paris, against 168,400 in 2024, which remains the all-time high. Paris fell to 71,700 listings, from almost 84,000. This decline comes solely from the disappearance, after the Games, of shared listings, meaning a room in the host’s home, and of occasional listings, let for fewer than 121 days.

Bookings, on the other hand, rose: 16.7 million nights in 2025, against nearly 16 million in 2024. The median reached 97 nights per active listing, a record, up from 73 in 2024.

“Year-round” homes take 69% of nights booked

The study calls “year-round” homes those let whole for more than 120 days a year: this is tourist letting, not a year-long lease. There were 52,900 of them in 2025, 55% in Paris, and their number has doubled since 2019. Their share reached 38% of listings, an all-time high, against 28.7% in 2024 and 27.3% in 2019. They account for 69% of nights booked on Airbnb in the region, up from 56% in 2018.

Paris: a 90-day cap, not 120

The 120 days are the threshold chosen by the study, not the legal limit in Paris: the cap there has been 90 days for a main residence since 1 January 2025. Half of Parisian listings exceeded 90 nights booked in 2025, a figure that does not show which of them are main residences.

Between 2023 and 2025, the capital gained more than 10,000 “year-round” homes according to Airdna data, for a total of more than 29,000, the highest level recorded. They represent nearly 41% of Parisian listings and 72% of nights booked in the capital.

Saint-Denis and Saint-Ouen gain ground

Outside Paris, the picture varies from one département to the next. Hauts-de-Seine has 15,300 listings and Seine-Saint-Denis 14,250, up from 7,100 in 2022. The outer suburbs account for 20% of listings, against around 9% in 2017. Saint-Denis, boosted by its merger with Pierrefitte-sur-Seine, is approaching 2,150 listings, 1,300 more than in 2018, and Saint-Ouen has 1,290.

A median rate of €56.50 in Paris

From June 2019 to June 2026, the median rate per night and per person rose from 32 to €39 in Île-de-France, an increase of 23%, and from 39 to €56.50 in Paris, an increase of 43.8%. The note also cites average hotel prices at the end of 2025 (consultancy In Extenso, March 2026): €239 per room in Paris, €105 in the rest of Île-de-France. The unit differs, per person for the tourist let, per room for the hotel: these figures cannot be compared directly. On the hotel side, see occupancy rates by region and the number of rooms in Paris.

The 2024 law: who will enforce it?

The note describes regulation that has already been tightened. The loi Le Meur-Echaniz of 19 November 2024, the French law on tourist lets, allows the cap to be lowered to 90 days and quotas to be set, and requires an energy rating between A and E for a change-of-use permit. Since May 2026, an EU regulation has required registration nationwide and the sharing of data by platforms. See also: what changes at Airbnb on 20 November 2026.

Taxation has followed suit: between 2024 and 2026, for tourist lets with no official classification, the ceiling of the micro-BIC, a simplified tax regime, falls from 77,700 to €15,000 and the flat-rate allowance from 50 to 30%. For the institute, regulation “finally seems to be reaching a point of balance”: the question now concerns the practical means available to local authorities to enforce it.
