Running a hotel, B&B, or hostel means keeping bookings, guests, staff, and daily reporting under control at the same time. Sticky Guest puts all of it in one place. Here’s how to get up and running.
Step 1: Sign Up for a Free Trial
No credit card required. Visit stickyguest.com/signup and select your property type. We support over 40 accommodation categories — from boutique hotels and B&Bs to campsites and serviced apartments.
Step 2: We Set Up Your Account
Once you’ve signed up, our team configures a fully functional demo account for your property. You’ll receive a login link within one business day. Your rooms, rates, and basic settings will already be in place.
Step 3: Explore the Dashboard
Log in and take a look around. The Simple Calendar is your daily home base — it shows every in-house guest, today’s arrivals, and today’s departures at a glance. From there you can access any booking in two clicks.
Try creating a test booking using the Guided 5-Step Booking flow. You’ll see how the system walks you through room selection, guest details, dates, payment, and confirmation without missing a step.
Step 4: Add Your Real Room Setup
Update your room types, rates, and availability to match your actual property. The Customisations section gives you hundreds of options — room categories, rate plans, booking policies, and staff permissions.
Step 5: Invite Your Team
Add your front desk staff and assign roles. Front desk users can create and manage bookings; management users can access reports and account settings. Everyone sees the same live data.
Key Features to Explore First
Advanced Calendar — a full view of all reservations across rooms and dates. Use drag-and-drop to move bookings and see exactly where the gaps are.
Guest List — every guest who has ever stayed at your property is here, with full stay history, preferences, and notes. Recognising a returning guest takes seconds.
Reports — run an occupancy summary or revenue report any time. No configuration needed — all reports are ready to go.
Moving to a Paid Account
If Sticky Guest is the right fit for your property, contact us at care@stickyguest.com and we’ll convert your demo to a fully paid account — keeping all your data, bookings, and settings intact.
