About HelloStay

Three founders, one shared goal: high-quality holiday apartments – personally looked after and professionally run.

Our story

From the first apartment to HelloStay GmbH

How HelloStay has developed.

  1. The beginning

    The foundation was laid by Jannik Adam a few years ago, when he began successfully letting his first furnished apartments for short stays – gaining valuable experience in letting and guest care along the way.

  2. HelloStay is born

    Building on this practical experience and a shared vision, HelloStay was born – with the aim of scaling high-quality accommodation professionally and establishing it in the market for the long term.

  3. A well-rehearsed team

    We have worked closely together for many years and bring experience in finance, project management and strategy. This lets us combine short decision paths with professional expertise – for guests and owners alike.

  4. Today

    9 apartments in Eltville, Wiesbaden, Hochheim and Steinbach – with two more large apartments in Eltville from November. We want to keep growing and are always looking for new partners: owners, developers and companies.
