Greenwich is one of London’s most visited riverside areas. Maritime Greenwich, with the Royal Observatory, the Cutty Sark, the National Maritime Museum and the Old Royal Naval College, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the O2 on the Greenwich Peninsula hosts major concerts and events throughout the year. Ichiban Stays provides property management in Greenwich for landlords who want their home run professionally as a short let, Airbnb or serviced apartment, without the day-to-day work.
Short-Let and Airbnb Management in Greenwich
Greenwich is served by the DLR and national rail, North Greenwich has the Jubilee line, and river boats run along the Thames to central London. Canary Wharf is a few minutes away, so Greenwich apartments attract business travellers during the week and tourists and concert-goers at weekends.

Things to Check Before Letting in Greenwich
Greenwich is in the Royal Borough of Greenwich (SE10 and nearby postcodes), covering areas such as Greenwich, Greenwich Peninsula, Blackheath and Woolwich. Before you let your property as a short let:
- Many apartments on the peninsula and riverside are in managed developments, and some leases and building rules restrict short lets. Check them before listing.
- Demand peaks around big events at the O2, so dynamic pricing makes a real difference here.
- Plan around the 90-night rule from the start: longer serviced stays suit Greenwich’s corporate demand from Canary Wharf.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Greenwich a good area for short lets?
Yes, for well-presented properties. Its World Heritage sights, the O2 and links to Canary Wharf bring guests all year. Your lease and the 90-night rule decide how you can let it.
Do you manage apartments on the Greenwich Peninsula?
Yes. We manage apartments on the Greenwich Peninsula and across the borough, working within building rules, and we also cover nearby Canary Wharf.
Can I let my Greenwich flat for more than 90 nights a year?
Not as a whole-home short let without planning permission. Stays of 90 consecutive nights or more do not count towards the limit, so we plan around it, for example by combining short stays with longer corporate lets.
Do you offer lettings management in Greenwich?
Our focus is short lets, serviced accommodation and corporate lets rather than traditional long-term lettings. If you want a steady, predictable income instead, our guaranteed rent option pays you an agreed rent every month while we run the property.
