Have you ever searched for a monthly airbnb or monthly rentals, but not known how to find one? Or looked at an extended stay hotel with a kitchenette and laundromat, and wondered if you could really live comfortably for a month in something like a university dormitory?
With Lodgeur’s guide to renting a long term furnished apartment in Houston, we can help make your search easier. Let’s get started!
Lodgeur has hosted thousands of guests who need to rent fully furnished apartments for an open-ended amount of time:
We host guests for 12+ months and we frequently host guests who return for monthly short term business or family visits.
Corporate housing tends to feel, well, corporate. You’ll be allotted 4 spoons and required to submit an inventory verifying all 4 spoons are still there when you leave. The design aesthetic is “sturdy”.
You can reheat takeout, but probably won’t be able to prepare a real meal in the kitchen. The typical corporate housing property might do for a short term stay but it tends to feel a bit grim for extended stays.
You will need to know how long you are staying, as the corporate housing provider has likely signed a short-term lease on the apartment just for your stay. You may not be able to extend your monthly rental.
Actually, around 25% of Airbnb’s revenue comes from monthly rentals. In the old days, people looking for corporate housing needed to engage a company to set up a furnished apartment for them with specific start and end dates, and additional commitment or paperwork. The entire stay was usually paid for in advance by the employer.
Today, many people book their own accommodation for monthly rentals and longer stays. Subletting was the old way to find something medium term, but aligning dates, location and quality were tricky.
Airbnb is a popular place to start looking for a monthly rental or a long term rental that is furnished and it’s a great alternative to a sublet. You can check reviews on nearby monthly rentals from a trusted community of guests, choose your exact move dates and easily book a move in ready apartment. You do need to know your end date, as the hosts will likely have other bookings on the calendar after your booking ends.
Each apartment has its own pricing and layout, so search for the places that are perfect for you and see the rates for your monthly rental. On extended stays of 30+ nights, there is no hotel tax charged for monthly rentals on Airbnb and other websites.
For monthly rentals (30+ nights) booked directly on Lodgeur’s website:
Fully furnished rentals include a kitchen and everything you need to be considered comfortably “moved in” to your new home without any moving boxes. Moving into our furnished apartments is as easy as unpacking your luggage.
At a minimum, fully furnished apartments should include:
Lodgeur’s comfortable properties are designed for long term stays and we believe that details matter. Everything you need to live comfortably for a month is already in place.
Many of our apartments for rent overlook the sparkling pool and outdoor amenities or have a city view of Houston. Every site is a Class-A apartment community near Houston’s top sights.
Resort-style amenities for monthly rentals are the same as those available for traditional tenants. Lodgeur’s fully furnished rentals are located in Class-A apartment communities. Popular amenities for monthly rentals include:
Lodgeur’s Houston apartments are situated in the Midtown neighborhood and Texas Medical Center. Location is one of the best amenities with our furnished apartments!
Midtown is one of Houston’s most walkable neighborhoods, with a WalkScore of 91 and dozens of walkable food options. The METRORail is next door (Ensemble Station), minutes away from downtown Houston, the Museum District, TMC and local universities. Getting around town without a car is easiest from this site, making it one of the most popular destinations for extended stays and monthly rentals.
Lodgeur’s Medical Center location offers easy access to some of the best hospitals in the country, along with medical schools and the Museum District sights. This property is close to Rice Village.

Flex living is the perfect solution for those needing a ready-made comfortable home in Houston without having to sign a long-term lease. You can have an amazing experience with none of the hassle and commitment that come along with a traditional lease. Reach our helpful support team during your extended stay by text, email or phone without the commitment or paperwork of a corporate housing lease!
Lodgeur offers guests on extended stays (30+ nights) the flexibility to terminate their booking on 14 days notice (30-night minimum stay).
Unlike a traditional corporate housing company or Airbnb host, Lodgeur can block the calendar for you so another guest does not book the same apartment. This allows you to extend your stay month to month as needed.
