The published facts, in plain English
Guestable is a full-service operator based in Toronto, ON (CA), covering 7 US + 3 CA metros. On price, the company publishes Not published (perf-based). 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
Side by side on published terms: Guestable lists Not published (perf-based), while One Fine BnB lists 20% for hands-off full service, or 10% if you keep your own local crew, plus a one-time onboarding retainer. Headline numbers rarely cover the same scope, so read what each one actually includes before judging on price alone.
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 does the published Not published (perf-based) exclude?” Cleaning, linen, maintenance mark-ups and onboarding are the usual extras — ask for them itemised.
- 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:
- STR Assistance — Not published (subscription).
- Next Guest KC — does not publish a price.
- Home Team Luxury Rentals — does not publish a price.
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.
