To think £4500 a month rent for this is ludicrous?!

I’m considering a temporary move to Bristol and renting out my house.

Bristol is a beautiful city but how can this be justified? Even if all bills are included

A small open plan kitchen and living room and not even an en-suite….

don’t rent it then

It does seem crazy but what do I know?

I agree it is crazily expensive, but I wonder if it’s because all bills are included, it’s a fully furnished new build and it’s also really central? Oh and Bristol is a v expensive city. Considering all of that, I think it’s actually okay (although I wouldn’t be able to afford it!)

That's extortionate! (I know nothing of locations and prices) but wow

Must be a mistake. More expensive than some prime London locations!

This one in London is the same price and the difference is huge.

Its a serviced apartment
So you get cleaning, towels, bedding etc
No council tax and no utility bills

It’s a serviced apartment where they do your laundry etc, it will be mostly companies paying for them. I imagine it’s cheaper than a hotel!

I'd want the chef, masseuse, & chauffeur too, even then😂

Serviced apartments are very expensive, its essentially living a hotel fulltime minus the food.

Just about to say this, price includes all bills. Still v expensive for what it is.

Knowing Bristol and where that is I don’t think the owner is wanting a long term let. No way is that even remotely the going rate for normal rental. I think this is probably for someone (agency) who doesn’t mind paying over the odds for no questions asked all in rate…..

Serviced apartments are expensive.

Try looking at some normal ones.

Maybe they’ve had to factor in energy costs then but I’d find that cost very off putting !

That second link... why show pictures of stuff dumped on the furniture. The mind boggles

Tbh it’s not unusual for rightmove listings to mix up price per week for price per calendar month so it could be an error.

The Bristol one says it is for short term and corporate lets, the London one is long term. That will explain some of the difference. Short term is always more expensive. Just think of holiday lets, they charge way more than people would pay if living there as tenants.

Must be a short term let and serviced.
You can rent a nice flat in Kensington for that amount!

It’s fully serviced - almost the same as staying in a hotel for a month. The price bears no relation to normal rental prices

It's intended for short term corporate lets, not really long term rentals

Wow surely there is a mistake?

It’s serviced and central.

It’s a “serviced apartment” like a hotel. Not just furnished but bedding etc with cleaners and laundry etc. If you’re looking to rent a flat, find a rental rather than a serviced apartment.

It's serviced. There are plenty available for a fraction of that price.

Serviced short term let for corporate clients...also central. You need to look at waling distance eg
