Host Family Stay provides a reliable service. Very patient and professional, and always responded to my emails. I was about to lose hope about finding a place in London, but Host Family Stay managed to find me the nicest host and a place very close to my uni and to Central London. I couldn't be happier about the experience I've had with them and I would definitely recommend their services!

Well organized service

I was looking for a student accommodation in London and noticed that everything was already booked, so i searched for a family stay. This website was the first that appeared on my google searches and found it interesting. They immediately emailed me to offer me some homestay options , I was able to choose directly. I have been in London for a week now, i have met my host family, got my room. (For information I took the bed and breakfast option). The place is better than i expected, I really feel like home, the host is really nice, I couldn’t have asked for better. The area is quiet and safe, everything is perfect.
I do recommend Host Family Stay for anyone who is looking for an accommodation here in London, it’s actually cheaper than other student accommodation, you can save more with it. I am really happy to be here, it’s not far from my university and Central London. Thank you Host Family Stay for your service.

I will consider this as a nice experience and I would differently recommend it.

My experience with Host Family Stay was simply excellent! The team is really professional and helpful. They work with passion and dedication and follow you constantly. When I first contacted them, it was a Friday. I had a big problem as the school, which was supposed to find accommodation for my son from the coming Sunday, had just informed me that it had not found it! So, I looked for a provider on the internet on my own and Zach was immediately available to help me, understanding the difficult situation I was in. He did everything he could, and eventually he found a host family in Zone 2. The new host is simply loving and great, my son is happy to be with the family. He is having a great time! I want to thank Zach, Emily, Abbie and all the team for all the excellent work they have done. I definitely recommend Host Family Stay to anyone looking for a serious and professional accommodation provider which supports you throughout your stay! Thanks a lot :-)

A great company that helped me find a fantastic host and was there to speak to whenever I needed. I sadly did need to change host due to strikes etc that made my journey a bit harder, and they helped me move really quickly and found another host who I loved as well. I am so thankful that I found Host Family Stay and the team and have/ would recommend them to any of my friends that are travelling to London to Study. Thank you once again, and thank you to the 2 amazing hosts :-)

Thank you!

"Of all the homestay agencies I have worked with, Host Family Stay is the one I am most satisfied with. The staff are never "too busy" to speak to you, and always call back within a reasonable time scale. Well done Host Family Stay, for the great service your staff give, which I believe is from the heart and not from a script."
