Our Services

Listing, pricing, guests, cleaning, statements. You decide how much of it we take on.

alphakey runs short-term rentals on Airbnb and Booking.com. With Basic (18 %) we handle listing, pricing and guest communication; you organise cleaning, key handover, round-the-clock availability and minor repairs yourself. With Full Service (20 %, 25 % from month 7) we take care of that too, with cleaning and laundry through partner companies. Permits and legal clearance are not included.

Listing Optimization

Professional photos, clear descriptions and set-up of the profiles on Airbnb and Booking.com.

Dynamic Pricing

Continuous adjustment to local demand, season and events in Zurich — not a fixed price set once.

Guest communication

Enquiries, check-in, support during the stay and local tips for guests. With full service we are reachable around the clock.

Cleaning, coordinated by us

With full service we do not carry out the cleaning ourselves: partner companies under framework agreements clean after every stay and provide fresh linen. We plan it, check it and answer for the coordination.

Property Maintenance

Regular inspections and prompt coordination of maintenance work.

Secure Access

Smart lock or secure key exchange, so handovers run without your diary. Included with full service.

Permits and legal clearance are not included. You clarify these with the municipality and the property management.

Questions about our services

How does the key handover work?

With full service we handle the handover, using a smart lock or a key box depending on the flat and the building. With the basic tier you organise the handover yourself.

Are guests looked after during their stay?

Yes. We answer enquiries, send the check-in instructions and deal with requests during the stay. We are reachable around the clock with full service; the basic tier does not include round-the-clock availability.

How often is the flat cleaned?

After every check-out, carried out by a partner company we engage and check — not by us. For longer stays we arrange mid-stay cleaning on request.

How is the price for my flat set?

We adjust prices continuously to season, weekday, events and booking lead time, using dynamic pricing software and our own knowledge of the Zurich market. We do not guarantee any income.

Shall we take on your flat?

Tell us the location and size. We tell you honestly whether it pays.

Without obligation. We use your details only for this request.
