• ABOUT US

WHO WE ARE

Host Family Stay was established in 2015 by three colleagues Sophie, Zach and Chris, to make the homestay accommodation industry more transparent, professional and friendly. Seeing so many students' journeys cut short due to low-quality homestay arrangements,less than acceptable service and shattered student experiences changed our lives forever! We decided to change the way homestay accommodation is seen and turn it into a leading student accommodation option in London that is affordable, professional and fun to experience. ​​Our first client, a language school, was so pleased with our approach that they recommended us to others. That’s how Host Family Stay established its footprint in London’s homestay sector.

​We believe that by upholding professional standards, supporting each other and by making things easy, we can change lives and create awesome lifetime experiences. And we want to work with everyone who relates to this and wants to support us in what we do.

 Over the years we have had new people joining our team, but the same spirit of professional service, dedicated friendship and collaboration has been guiding everything we do.​​
