Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Aarhus?

Gross bookings per Aarhus listing averaged kr 101,622 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Central Denmark Region average: kr 94,194), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average Aarhus listing brings in kr 21,800 in August, its best month, and kr 9,720 in February, its slowest. January runs within 3% of February, so either can be the slowest in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 35% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.

In a typical month, a top-quarter listing earns at least 3.7 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn kr 31,300+ a month, about 2.5 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn kr 21,900 or more, roughly kr 9,500 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about kr 12,400 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn kr 5,920 or less, about half of the median.

These are monthly figures for listings active in each month. The annual average above also counts listings that operated for only part of the year, so it runs below twelve times these figures.

August earns about 2.2 times what February does

Average revenue per active listing, by month, September 2024 to August 2026

The dashed line is the average of the months shown, kr 14,200. Each point is one month as recorded, averaged over the listings active in it. The best and slowest months in the text average each calendar month over the past two years, so they can differ from the highest and lowest points here.

Averages per active listing in each month. Highlighted: the highest-revenue month of the 12. RevPAR is the month's revenue spread over its nights, booked or not. Booking lead time is the days between booking and check-in, and length of stay the nights per booking, for stays in that month.

The typical Aarhus listing earns about kr 12,400 a month, but one property can land well above or below that. The Airbnb profit calculator gives a range for a specific address, built from the comparable listings around it.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Aarhus Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Aarhus Airbnb took in kr 101,622 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about kr 6,100 a month of that is left after running costs, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes money. A listing in the top quarter leaves about kr 11,000 a month.

Cleaning it yourself keeps the kr 5,400 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about kr 6,600 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about kr 5,300 a month.

These amounts come before housing costs. Where the mortgage or rent is less each month, the difference is profit; a home owned outright keeps it all after property tax, home insurance and any building or condo fees.

Estimate Your Own Aarhus Airbnb Profit

The estimate starts from Aarhus's average listing, run by its owner. Change how the listing performs, who runs it and who cleans to see what is left for the mortgage or rent.

How Aarhus's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Aarhus listings are booked on 75% or more of their nights, against 47% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of kr 900 adds about kr 9,000 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge kr 1,230 a night or more, against a median of kr 900. That is a separate ranking from the busiest quarter, so the two marks don't multiply into one listing's takings. For the average listing, a 10% higher rate on the nights it already books adds about kr 9,600 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, August brings the average listing about kr 21,800, against kr 9,720 in February, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Aarhus listings average 4.84 stars, and 45% carry Airbnb's Guest Favorite badge, which guests can filter for.

What a listing keeps comes down to the figures this page measures: nightly rate, nights booked and the months it's open. A listing at the top-quarter mark takes in about kr 15,000 a month, against kr 8,500 for the average one.

Occupancy

What Is the Airbnb Occupancy Rate in Aarhus?

The busiest tenth of listings are booked about 4.5 times as often as the bottom quarter.

Nightly rates

How Much Does an Airbnb Cost per Night in Aarhus?

The average nightly rate in Aarhus, known as ADR (average daily rate), was kr 1,050 over the past year, about 13% below the Central Denmark Region average of kr 1,205 and about 23% below the Denmark average of kr 1,370. In a typical year, rates peak in July and August at about kr 1,070 and bottom out in September and November at about kr 905.

The top 10% charge about 2.6 times the rate of the bottom quarter.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) charge kr 1,710+ a night, about 1.9 times the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) charge kr 1,230 or more, about kr 330 above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) charge about kr 900 a night.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) charge kr 665 or less, about three-quarters of the median.

August rates run 18% above September's

Average nightly rate (ADR), by month, September 2024 to August 2026

The dashed line is the average of the months shown, kr 970. The 12-month ADR of kr 1,050 averages each listing's own rate across its whole year; the monthly points average listings month by month, so the two differ.

What Is the RevPAR for Airbnb in Aarhus?

RevPAR, or revenue per available night, divides a listing's income by every night it was open to book, so it rises with both price and bookings. In Aarhus it averaged kr 502 over the past year, from about kr 322 in a typical January to about kr 702 in a typical August.

Per open night, by tier:

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn kr 953+ per open night, about 2.2 times the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn kr 681 or more, about kr 260 a night above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about kr 424 per open night.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn kr 240 or less, about 57% of the median.

August RevPAR is about 2.2 times January's

Revenue per open night (RevPAR), by month, September 2024 to August 2026

Permits

Airbnb Permits and Registration in Aarhus

None of the 1,367 active listings in Aarhus display a registration, permit or license number. That doesn't mean no rules apply: some places don't ask hosts to show a number on the listing, and listing data doesn't capture every scheme.

Registration, permit, zoning and tourist-tax rules vary by address and change often, so confirm them with the local authority before buying or listing in Aarhus.
