For Hotels & Hosts
SideKick connects your guests with real Cincinnati locals — before they arrive. It costs you nothing, takes five minutes to set up, and gives your guests a reason to remember their stay.
Who we work with
If your guests are asking "what should I do while I'm here?" — SideKick is the answer you can give them.
Add a SideKick QR code to your check-in materials, welcome packet, or lobby signage. Your guests get personalized local advice — you get a standout amenity that costs nothing.
Turn your welcome book into something guests actually use. A link to SideKick alongside your house rules tells guests: "we want your trip to be amazing." Superhosts love this.
Visitor centers, event venues, conference hotels — anyone whose guests are new to Cincinnati and need more than a brochure. We make you look like you know everyone.
How it works
Partnering with SideKick takes about five minutes and nothing out of your budget.
Send us a message on WhatsApp or email. We'll confirm your partnership in 24 hours.
We send you a custom QR code, a short link, and a ready-to-use welcome message — all branded for SideKick.
Drop it in your welcome email, print it on a card, put it in your Airbnb book — wherever guests will see it.
Your guests chat with a SideKick directly. You get the credit for a better guest experience.
Most hotel "local guides" are outdated PDFs with the same chain restaurants everyone already knows. SideKick is a live conversation with a person who ate at that restaurant last week.
Guests can ask about their specific situation — traveling with kids, planning a late-night out, looking for something only locals know about. They get a real answer, not a filtered list.
It's as simple as this — and your guests will talk about it.
