How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Dortmund?
Gross bookings per Dortmund listing averaged €9,710 over the 12 months to September 2026 (North Rhine-Westphalia average: €11,587), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average Dortmund listing brings in €1,290 in October, its best month, and €908 in February, its slowest. December runs within 5% of October, so either can come out on top in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 28% 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 3.2 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.
- Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn €2,290+ a month, about 2.5 times the typical property.
- Strong performers (top 25%) earn €1,510 or more, roughly €590 a month above the median.
- Typical properties (median) earn about €918 a month.
- Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn €459 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.
October earns about 1.4 times what February does

Dortmund Airbnb Data by Month
Latest 12 months in the September 2026 data. September's figures are still coming in, so the rows run to August.
December 2025 led on revenue. Nightly rates peaked in September 2025 and bookings in October 2025, so the best-paying month is not always the busiest or the priciest. Across the past two years, October is usually the strongest month.

The typical Dortmund listing earns about €918 a month, but one property can land well above or below that. The Airbnb estimator gives a range for a specific address, built from the comparable listings around it.
Profit
Is an Airbnb in Dortmund Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Dortmund Airbnb took in €9,710 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about €540 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 €890 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the €740 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about €600 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about €460 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.

How Dortmund's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Dortmund listings are booked on 60% or more of their nights, against 38% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of €83 adds about €835 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge €115 a night or more, against a median of €83. 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 €900 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, October brings the average listing about €1,290, against €908 in February, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Dortmund listings average 4.76 stars, and 40% 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 €1,330 a month, against €810 for the average one.
