How it works

Simple for renters. Free for hosts.

RoomPair is medium-term accommodation for anyone over 18 — professionals, students, healthcare workers, teachers, interns and people relocating for work. Stays run 28 nights or more.

If you're looking for a room

  1. 1

    Search

    Browse rooms by city, town, county, Eircode or area. Filtering costs nothing.

  2. 2

    Build your profile

    Tell hosts who you are: work or study, budget, move-in date, lifestyle.

  3. 3

    Request to book

    Choose dates of 28 nights or more. Your card is authorised for the €199 fee — nothing is taken and you are not committed.

  4. 4

    Get accepted

    The host reviews your profile, messages you and accepts or declines within 24 hours.

  5. 5

    Pay €199 once

    Your authorisation is captured only on acceptance. Declined, expired or cancelled? Released in full — you pay nothing. Staying longer never costs more.

  6. 6

    Move in

    Your check-in pack is released: exact address, contact details, rent schedule, deposit record and house rules.
