Great for

Tedee Review: Is It Worth It?
Our independent take on Tedee from an STR operator lens. No sponsored placements. Contact sales • No free trial.
Our verdict
Solid EU retrofit smart lock with real PMS integrations, but accessory pricing is opaque
What Tedee actually is
Tedee is a Poland-based smart-lock vendor selling retrofit euro-profile cylinder locks (Tedee GO and Tedee PRO) with native PMS integrations for short-term rental operators. Hardware is sold as a one-time purchase rather than a SaaS subscription, and the lineup supports a broad smart-home ecosystem including Apple HomeKit, Google Home, Amazon Alexa via Matter, Home Assistant, and Fibaro alongside Guesty, Hostify, and Smoobu for rental code automation.
What we like
Broad smart-home ecosystem support including Matter
Tedee supports Apple HomeKit, Google Home, Amazon Alexa, Home Assistant, Fibaro, and Matter — wider than typical STR-only locks, per the vendor's compatibility page (2026-04-24).
Native Guesty and Hostify PMS integration for automated guest codes
Operators can auto-generate per-reservation access codes tied to booking windows without manual key handoff — Hostify's integration page confirms guest data syncs directly to Tedee locks (2026-04-24).
Retrofit cylinder install with no door drilling
Tedee GO and PRO mount on existing euro-profile cylinders, allowing reversible installation — a real advantage for leased STR properties where structural changes aren't permitted.
Where it falls short
No consolidated vendor pricing page; accessory-dependent total cost is opaque
Keypad, bridge, and cylinder pricing are sold as separate SKUs; assembling a STR-ready kit cost requires hunting across multiple product pages, since tedee.com/pricing returned no tier list (2026-04-24).
EU-centric distribution and euro-profile cylinder dependency
The vendor's product schema returns EUR pricing and US/USD retail pricing on the vendor site is unverified — North American operators with ANSI deadbolts will need a different lock.
Full STR use requires the separately-purchased keypad accessory
Without a keypad, guests need the Tedee mobile app to unlock, which is inconvenient for one-night stays and non-tech-savvy guests, per Tedee's own STR guidance (2026-04-24).
Is Tedee right for you?
OK for
Small portfolios (1–5 units) needing smart home flexibility (Matter, HomeKit, Google Home, Alexa via bridge) alongside rental-code automation.
Skip if
You operate in North America with standard ANSI deadbolts — Tedee retrofits euro-profile cylinders and US distribution and USD pricing is unverified on the vendor site.
Pricing in one line
Contact sales • No free trial
Hardware purchase model, not a subscription. Tedee GO listed at €129.00 VAT-included on the vendor product schema (2026-04-24). No consolidated pricing page exists at tedee.com/pricing. Tedee PRO, keypad, bridge, and cylinder accessory prices are sold as separate SKUs and are UNVERIFIED from direct vendor product-page fetches.
