Airbnb Welcome Book Template German – Gästemappe, 18 Page Guest Guide + WiFi Sign, Editable PowerPoint, No Canva

Welcome Book German Edition (Gästemappe) – an 18-page editable guest guide written entirely in German (Gästemappe), plus a matching German Wi-Fi sign (WLAN-Schild). Made for hosts who welcome German-speaking guests from Germany, Austria and Switzerland.

This is not a word-for-word translation. The text is written the way a German host would address a guest: polite “Sie”, 24-hour times, degrees Celsius, euros, the emergency numbers 112 and 110, “Mülltrennung”, “Hausordnung” and “Schlüsselbox”. Replace the [bracketed] examples with your own details and the Gästemappe is ready to print or send.

No Canva needed. Edit in PowerPoint, Google Slides (free) or Keynote. Every heading, paragraph and colour is a real text box – click, type your details over the [bracketed] placeholders, export to PDF and print it or send it to guests digitally.
