How do I switch from the tenant area to the host area?

Updated on 03/19/2026

On Roomlala, you can be both a tenant and a host. Your personal space adapts according to the chosen mode: you only see the sections that concern you. Switching from one to the other takes just one click!

Where to find the button to change mode?

The mode change button is accessible from two places:

  • Your account menu (site header): click on your profile picture or the menu icon at the top right of the page. In the dropdown menu that appears, you will find the "Host mode" or "Tenant mode" button depending on your current mode.
  • Your personal space menu: in the "Account" section of your dashboard, the same button is available at the bottom of the sub-menu.

How to change mode?

It's very simple:

  • If you are in tenant mode, the button displays "Host mode". Click on it to switch to the host space.
  • If you are in host mode, the button displays "Tenant mode". Click on it to return to the tenant space.

The change is instant: the page reloads, and your personal space displays the sections corresponding to the new mode.

What changes depending on the mode?

The sections of your personal space adapt automatically.

In tenant mode, you access:

  • Your favorites list
  • Your search alerts
  • Your reviews
  • Your bookings

In host mode, you access:

  • Your listings
  • Your potential tenants
  • Your statistics
  • Your scheduled messages
  • Your reviews
  • Your bookings

Your messaging remains accessible in both modes, but it displays conversations corresponding to the selected mode.

Good to know

Changing modes deletes nothing: your listings, messages, and bookings are retained. You can switch from one mode to another as many times as you wish, with no risk to your data.
