Gross bookings per Bistrița listing averaged lei 15,294 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Romania average: lei 31,449), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average Bistrița listing brings in lei 3,040 in August, its best month, and lei 1,370 in February, its slowest.

Profit
Is an Airbnb in Bistrița Profitable?
Yes, as extra income from a home or room you already have. The average Bistrița Airbnb took in lei 15,294 in the 12 months to September 2026, counting listings open only part of the year, and a listing in the top quarter, run by its owner at everyday costs, keeps about lei 1,690 a month after running costs.
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 Bistrița's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Bistrița listings are booked on 36% or more of their nights, against 22% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of lei 240 adds about lei 2,380 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge lei 310 a night or more, against a median of lei 240. 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 lei 1,500 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, August brings the average listing about lei 3,040, against lei 1,370 in February, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Bistrița listings average 4.86 stars, and 50% 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 lei 2,230 a month, against lei 1,270 for the average one.
