Do you offer a parking spot to your guests?

Hello everyone, Alex here.👋
 
We all know that guests can arrive at your accommodation in many different ways. For those arriving by taxi, it’s easy for them because they don’t need to worry about where to park. But for those arriving at your listing by car, do you offer parking?
 
We have hosts from all kinds of areas, from bustling city centers to remote and quiet places, each with different advantages and characteristics!
 
One question that often arises from guests is about parking... I would love to know how you all handle it! 
 
Is this information clearly mentioned in your listing, or do you wait until the booking is completed to communicate it? 🗣
Do you provide a parking spot on your property, or do you recommend nearby parking options?
 
We look forward to your thoughts and any tips on how to manage parking!🅿️
 
Whether you have parking or not, please share your opinions and thoughts in the comments!
Best regards,
Alex

We try too. In the winter, there is no street parking, so we have to juggle, figuring out which of the family members have to leave as soon as possible. So far, it hasn't been a big deal, but we have learned that our guests' needs are continuously evolving.

Parking is available for guests.

Guests can park in driveway. 

I do mention if it’s a gated area, has a guard, or surveillance cameras.

if any restrictions I would explain with example : Only one car per booking. Cost it’s free. 

Additional  Notes: Please use the remote control to open the gate, or Do not block other residents’ spaces.

Best,

Hi @Alex,

I host a full private home, and guests have access to both the driveway and the garage for their parking needs at no additional cost. I make sure to clearly mention this in my listing so guests know upfront that they’ll have a secure and convenient place to park.


I’ve found that providing this information ahead of time helps guests plan better and adds to their overall experience. Happy to hear how other hosts handle this as well!


Best,
Kenny

Hi Alex. 

I'm hosting in a rural part of Ireland. We offer a full house and  because of its location it is car dependent. We offer private parking on the property. We have plenty of space with parking for six or seven vehicles.

We have two car park spaces - essential as the vast majority of our guests arrive by car !

We have driveway parking for guests.

Yes, we actually have a parking lot with a special sign next to the Air B and B steps, so it is a breeze to bring your luggage or bags upstairs. We have a one bedroom apartment not occupied by anyone with linens, kitchen fully equipped and snacks. My B and B is in a walkable town with antiques, theatre, restaurants and in a very quiet neighborhood.
