Guestivo for B&Bs and Guesthouses
Hotel-grade guest experience built for the small owner-operated property without a dedicated front-of-house team.
Who this is for
- Bed and breakfasts with 5-25 rooms
- Owner-operated guesthouses
- Properties with no full-time front desk staff
- Operators wearing 4 hats — host, chef, housekeeper, marketer
- Properties competing with Airbnb on professional standards
Common challenges in this segment
Owner can't be on-site 24/7
B&B owners need to sleep, run errands, breathe. AI concierge and online check-in let guests self-serve when the owner isn't around; digital-key access can be added where a supported lock provider is configured.
International guests, single owner language
A Polish guesthouse owner can't be expected to handle a German guest in fluent German. Auto-translated chat solves it.
Light tech budget — every euro matters
B&B economics don't support enterprise software. Transparent per-room pricing (€4 / room / month) is the only model that fits.
Need professional service feel without professional staff
What makes a B&B compete with Airbnb is the professional standard. Guest portal makes that visible and consistent.
How Guestivo fits
AI concierge picks up when the owner can't
Common guest questions (WiFi, breakfast time, local recommendations) handled automatically. Owner gets pinged only for genuine escalations.
Online check-in with digital key option
Guests register from their phone before arrival. With a digital lock retrofit, they can let themselves in even if the owner isn't there.
Multi-language portal and chat
8 supported content languages. The owner replies in Polish; the German guest sees German.
Per-room pricing that fits B&B economics
From €4 per room per month. A 10-room B&B pays around €40/month for the platform — a single overnight booking covers a month.
Pricing
From €4 per room per month. A 10-room B&B pays around €40/month for the full platform.
Frequently asked questions
Guestivo includes basic reservation management, which is often enough for small B&Bs that don't run a separate PMS. For B&Bs already on KWHotel, Profitroom, or similar systems, connector work is scoped during onboarding after we confirm API access or whether scheduled CSV exchange is sufficient. Apaleo is the current reference PMS integration.
Yes — the admin panel works on any browser, phone or laptop. Designed for owner-operators who are mobile.
Guests use mobile data to access the portal. WiFi credentials are also distributed through the portal for guests once they arrive.
