One of the world’s most iconic cities, Paris attracts huge numbers of visitors every year. Catering to them are a wide choice of accommodation options dotted across the city, including many Airbnb properties available for short-term rent. For Parisian Airbnb owners, there are several management companies that promise to take all of the hassles of hosting off your hands while maximising your revenue. We’ve picked out five of the best currently operating in the City of Lights.

GuestReady

Headquartered in Switzerland, GuestReady’s in-house team boast decades of experience in the hospitality sector, as well as in finance and even rocket science. They focus on helping landlords turn their investments into profitable income, using technology to transfer the traditional sides of hospitality to the short-let market. Their services cover all bases, from the initial property listing through to check-in and check-out, property maintenance, concierge and housekeeping, all designed to provide guests with an experience comparable to staying in a high-end hotel.
