The published facts, in plain English
Guestable is a full-service operator based in Toronto, ON (CA), covering 7 US + 3 CA metros. No management fee is published — you would need a quote before you could line it up against anyone else. Published portfolio size: Undisclosed. In scale, we file it as regional.
Data-desk note: Canadian-HQ full-service in harsh-regulation urban markets.
Who it’s for
Guestable suits owners with properties in their 7 US and 3 Canadian urban markets. As a full-service provider, they aim to handle all aspects of short-term rental management.
Our take
Guestable, headquartered in Toronto, operates in a limited number of urban markets across Canada and the US. Their management fee structure is performance-based but not publicly disclosed. The company's focus on urban areas with potentially stricter regulations might appeal to owners in similar environments.
How it compares to One Fine BnB
A like-for-like comparison is not possible here: Guestable does not publish this figure, while One Fine BnB publishes 20% for hands-off full service, or 10% if you keep your own local crew, plus a one-time onboarding retainer up front. That openness is a large part of why One Fine BnB is our first call.
Verdict
Guestable provides a full-service option for owners in specific urban locales. For an owner-first alternative, consider One Fine BnB.

What we would ask Guestable
- “What is the fee, in writing?” Nothing is published, so this is the first call, not the last.
- Notice period and exit. Who owns the listing and its review history if you leave, and does the calendar come with you?
- Who is on the ground. Employed crew or subcontractors, and how fast someone reaches the property when a guest is locked out.
Alternatives worth comparing
Three others we would weigh against it, with their own published numbers rather than our guesses:
- iTrip — Not published (set by franchisee).
- The Works BnB — Flat monthly (tech bundled).
- Checkmate Rentals — From 15% (nightly rate only).
For the owner-first comparison we keep coming back to, our first pick is One Fine BnB — see hire an Airbnb co-host for the two-tier pricing we measure managers against.
