SStayforlong
Stayforlong is a Barcelona-based online travel agency specialising in long stays: it negotiates hotel rates that drop the longer you book (typically 3+ nights), and also sells flight+hotel packages, transfers and car rental. Founded in 2015, it is a bootstrapped-to-seed-stage travel marketplace that has grown fast on revenue rather than large VC rounds — reported gross bookings of ~€230M in 2023 (+61% YoY) and ~€310M by 2025, with ~120 employees, 25+ markets and an expansion push into Latin America (Mexico, Brazil) and Asia.
