Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation Nature of Operations Sonder Holdings Inc. is headquartered in San Francisco, California, and together with its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively “Sonder” or the “Company”), provides short and long-term accommodations to travelers in various cities across North America, Europe, and the Middle East. The Sonder units in each apartment-style building and each hotel property are selected, designed, and managed directly by the Company. On January 18, 2022, the Company consummated the previously announced business combination by and among Gores Metropoulos II, Inc. (“GMII”), Sunshine Merger Sub I, Inc. (“First Merger Sub”), a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Second Merger Sub (as defined below), Sunshine Merger Sub II, LLC, a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of GMII (“Second Merger Sub”), and Sonder Operating Inc., a Delaware corporation formerly known as Sonder Holdings Inc. (“Legacy Sonder”) (the “Business Combination”). Refer to Note 13 , Business Combination, for details of the transaction. Basis of Financial Statement Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”, “U.S. GAAP”, or “generally accepted accounting principles”). The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Sonder Holdings Inc., its wholly owned subsidiaries, and one variable interest entity (“VIE”) for which it is the primary beneficiary in accordance with consolidation accounting guidance. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position at September 30, 2022 and its results of operations and comprehensive loss, mezzanine equity and stockholders’ equity (deficit), for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. The Company’s condensed consolidated results of operations and comprehensi ve loss , mezzanine equity and stockholders’ equity (deficit ) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, Consolidation, the Company evaluates its ownership, contractual, and other interests in entities to assess whether it has a variable interest in entities in which it has a financial relationship and, if so, whether or not those entities are VIEs. These evaluations are complex, involving judgment and the use of estimates and assumptions based on available historical and prospective information, among other factors. For an entity to qualify as a VIE, ASC 810 requires the Company to determine if it is the primary beneficiary of the VIE, and, if so, to consolidate such entity into its consolidated financial statements. If the Company determines that it is not the primary beneficiary of the VIE, the ASC 810 requires the Company, to account for the investment or other variable interest in a VIE in accordance with applicable U.S. GAAP. The Company consolidates its VIE in which it holds a controlling financial interest, and is therefore deemed the primary beneficiary. The Company will be deemed to hold a controlling financial interest when it: (i) has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of this VIE; and (ii) has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that, in either case, could potentially be significant to this VIE. Periodically, the Company reevaluates its ownership, contractual, and other interests in entities to determine whether any changes in its interest or relationship with an entity impacts the determination of whether it is still the primary beneficiary of such entity. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company’s consolidated VIE was not material to the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company qualifies as an emerging growth company as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, and, as such, may take advantage of specified reduced reporting requirements and deferred accounting standards adoption dates, and is relieved of other significant requirements that are otherwise generally applicable to other public companies. Use of Estimates The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting periods. Such management estimates include the fair value of share-based awards, estimated useful life of software development costs, bad-debt allowances, valuation of intellectual property and intangible assets, contingent liabilities, and valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, among others. These estimates are based on information available as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements; therefore, actual results could differ from those estimates. Reclassification Certain amounts reported in previous consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation. These reclassifications did not affect previously reported amounts of net income, total assets, or total stockholders’ equity (deficit). |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Recently Issued Accounting Standards | Recently Issued Accounting Standards The following reflect recent accounting standards that have been adopted or are pending adoption by the Company. As discussed in Note 1, Basis of Presentation, the Company qualifies as an emerging growth company, and as such, has elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards and is not subject to the new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies during the extended transition period. The accounting standards discussed below indicate effective dates for the Company as an emerging growth company with the extended transition period. Recently Adopted Accounting Standards In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) , which has subsequently been amended by ASUs 2018-01, 2018-10, 2018-11, 2018-20, 2019-01, 2019-10, and 2020-05. The guidance requires the recognition of ROU assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for substantially all leases under U.S. GAAP. The Company has elected to use the transition relief approach as provided in ASU 2018-11, which permits the Company to use January 1, 2022 as both the application date and the adoption date, rather than the modified retrospective approach. The Company also elected certain relief options offered within the new standard, which include the package of practical expedients, the option not to recognize an ROU asset and lease liability that arise from short-term leases (i.e., leases with terms of 12 months or less), and the option of hindsight when determining lease term. Substantially all of the Company’s lease agreements are considered operating leases and were not previously recognized on the Company’s balance sheets. On January 1, 2022, the Company recognized $1.0 billion in operating lease ROU assets, $1.1 billion of operating lease liabilities, and a $66.1 million reduction to deferred rent, which was recorded as a reduction the ROU asset measured on the adoption date. Refer to Note 6, Leases, for further discussion of the Company’s lease accounting. In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt — Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity , which simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments by reducing the number of accounting models available for convertible debt instruments. This guidance also eliminates the treasury stock method to calculate diluted earnings per share for convertible instruments and requires the use of the if-converted method. For public companies, the guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company early adopted ASU 2020-06 beginning January 1, 2021, and the adoption did not have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements. Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments , which has subsequently been amended by ASUs 2018-19, 2019-04, 2019-05, 2019-10, and 2019-11. The guidance changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. The guidance replaces the current ‘incurred loss’ model with an ‘expected loss’ approach. This generally will result in the earlier recognition of allowances for losses and requires increased disclosures. ASU 2016-13 was effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. In November 2019, FASB issued amended guidance which defers the effective date for emerging growth companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods therein. The Company is currently evaluating the impact ASU 2016-13 will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) , which was subsequently amended by ASU 2021-04. The guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions to contract modifications and hedging relationships that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. The standard is effective upon issuance through December 31, 2022 and may be applied at the beginning of the interim period that includes March 12, 2020 or any date thereafter. The Company does not have any hedging relationships and currently does not have material contracts impacted by reference rate reform; however, the Company will continue to assess contracts through December 31, 2022. |

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract] | |
Revenue | Revenue The Company primarily generates revenues by providing short-term or month-to-month accommodations to its guests. Direct revenue is generated from stays booked through Sonder.com or the Sonder app or directly with our sales personnel, while indirect revenue is generated from stays booked through third-party corporate and online travel agencies (“OTAs”). The following table sets forth the Company’s total revenues for the periods indicated, disaggregated between direct and indirect revenue (in thousands): Three months ended Nine months ended 2022 2021 2022 2021 Direct revenue $ 49,392 $ 33,912 $ 124,169 $ 77,968 Indirect revenue 75,134 33,542 202,145 68,313 Total revenue $ 124,526 $ 67,454 $ 326,314 $ 146,281 No individual guest represented over 10.0% of revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. Four third-party corporate customers and OTAs represented approximately 26.3%, 16.9%, 15.5%, and 14.8%, respectively, of the net accounts receivable balance at September 30, 2022, and one third-party OTA represented 29.0% of S |
Fair Value Measurement and Fina
Fair Value Measurement and Financial Instruments | 9 Months Ended |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Measurement and Financial Instruments | Fair Value Measurement and Financial Instruments Fair Value Hierarchy Accounting standards require the Company to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value: Level 1 : Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company has the ability to access as of the measurement date. Level 2 : Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. Level 3 : Significant unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. A financial instrument’s classification within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Preferred Stock Warrants and Share-Settled Redemption Feature related to the Convertible Notes At December 31, 2021, the Company did not have observable inputs for the valuation of its preferred stock warrant liabilities or the share-settled redemption feature related to the Company’s convertible promissory notes (the “Convertible Notes”). The Convertible Notes were initially separated into debt and share-settled redemption feature components and assigned a fair value. The value assigned to the debt component was the estimated fair value as of the issuance date of similar debt without the share-settled redemption feature. The difference between the cash proceeds and the estimated fair value represented the value which was assigned to the share-settled redemption feature and was recorded as a debt discount. The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of the Convertible Notes and the share-settled redemption feature was the fair value of the underlying stock at the valuation measurement date. At December 31, 2021, the fair value of the preferred stock warrant liabilities was based in part on aggregate equity value indications, consistent with the analysis for the Company’s common stock valuation using the option pricing method. The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of the preferred stock warrant liabilities was the fair value of the underlying preferred stock at the valuation measurement date. On January 18, 2022, upon the closing of the Business Combination, the outstanding principal balance of the Convertible Notes, the accrued and unpaid interest of the Convertible Notes, and the preferred stock warrants were converted to equity. As such, there were no share-settled redemption features or preferred stock warrant liabilities at September 30, 2022. SPAC Warrants As part of the GMII initial public offering (“GMII IPO”), GMII issued 9,000,000 public warrants (the “Public Warrants”) and 5,500,000 private placement warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”), each of which is exercisable at a price of $11.50 per share (collectively, the “SPAC Warrants”). Management has determined that the Public Warrants issued in the GMII IPO, which remained outstanding at the closing of the Business Combination and became exercisable for shares of the Company’s common stock, are subject to treatment as a liability. At the closing of the Business Combination and at September 30, 2022, the Company used a Monte Carlo simulation methodology to value the Public Warrants using Level 3 inputs, as the Company did not have observable inputs for the valuation. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Public Warrants liability are related to expected share-price volatility of 56.3% and the expected term of 4.30 years years. At September 30, 2022, the Public Warrants were valued at $0.12 per warrant. The fair value of the Private Placement Warrants was deemed to be equal to the fair value of the Public Warrants, as the Private Placement Warrants have similar terms and are subject to substantially the same redemption features as the Public Warrants. As a result, Level 3 inputs were used to value the Private Placement Warrants. Refer to Note 7, Warrants and Stockholders’ Equity (Deficit), for additional information surrounding the SPAC Warrants. Earn Out In addition to the consideration paid at the closing of the Business Combination, certain investors may receive their pro rata share of up to an aggregate of 14,500,000 additional shares of the Company’s common stock as consideration upon the common stock achieving certain benchmark share prices, as set forth in the merger agreement (the “Earn Out”). Management has determined that the Earn Out is subject to treatment as a liability. The Company used a Monte Carlo simulation methodology to value the Earn Out using Level 2 inputs. The key assumptions used in the Monte Carlo simulation are related to expected share-price volatility, expected term, risk-free interest rate, and dividend yield. The expected volatility at September 30, 2022 was derived from the volatility of comparable public companies. Delayed Draw Warrants The fair value of the Delayed Draw Warrants (as defined in Note 5 , Debt) issued in connection with the Delayed Draw Notes (as defined in Note 5 , Debt) was estimated by separating the Delayed Draw Notes into the debt and warrants components and assigning a fair value to each component. The value assigned to the debt component was the estimated fair value as of the issuance date of similar debt without the warrants. The difference between the cash proceeds and the estimated fair value represented the value which was assigned to the Delayed Draw Warrants and recorded as a debt discount. As of the closing of the Business Combination, the fair value of the Delayed Draw Warrants was $5.6 million and was included in additional paid in capital in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments At September 30, 2022, there were no assets or liabilities measured using Level 1 inputs. At September 30, 2022, the Earn Out liability, Public Warrants liability, and Private Placement Warrants liability were included in other non-current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The following table summarizes the Company’s Level 2 and Level 3 financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2022 (in thousands): Level 2 Level 3 Total Earn Out liability $ 3,818 $ — $ 3,818 Public Warrants — 1,080 1,080 Private Placement Warrants — 660 660 Total financial liabilities measured and recorded at fair value $ 3,818 $ 1,740 $ 5,558 At December 31, 2021, there were no assets or liabilities measured using Level 1 or Level 2 inputs. At December 31, 2021, the share-settled redemption feature and the preferred stock warrant liabilities were recorded in convertible notes and other non-current liabilities, respectively, in the consolidated balance sheet . The following table summarizes the Company’s Level 3 financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2021 (in thousands): Level 3 Preferred stock warrant liabilities $ 3,288 Share-settled redemption feature 30,322 Total financial liabilities measured and recorded at fair value $ 33,610 The following table represents changes in the Company’s Level 3 liabilities measured at fair value for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 (in thousands): Level 3 Beginning balance at January 1, 2022 $ 33,610 Public Warrants liability recognized upon closing of Business Combination 23,670 Private Placement Warrants liability recognized upon closing of Business Combination 14,465 Decrease in fair value of share-settled redemption feature upon conversion of Convertible Notes (30,322) Decrease in fair value of Public Warrants liability (22,590) Decrease in fair value of Private Placement Warrants liability (13,805) Conversion of preferred stock warrant liabilities to equity (3,288) Total financial liabilities measured and recorded at fair value $ 1,740 The following table presents changes in Sonder’s Level 3 liabilities measured at fair value for the year ended December 31, 2021 (in thousands): Level 3 Beginning balance at January 1, 2021 $ 1,140 Recognition of share-settled redemption feature 45,156 Decrease in fair value of share-settled redemption feature (14,834) Increase in fair value of preferred stock warrant liabilities 2,148 Total financial liabilities measured and recorded at fair value $ 33,610 There were no transfers of financial instruments between valuation levels during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021. Management estimates that the fair values of its restricted cash, accounts receivable, prepaid rent, prepaid expenses, other current assets, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, sales tax payable, deferred revenue, current portion of long-term debt, convertible notes, and other current liabilities approximates their carrying values due to the relatively short maturity of the instruments. The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt approximates its carrying value because it bears interest at a market rate and all other terms are also reflective of current market terms. These assumptions are inherently subjective and involve significant management judgment. Any change in fair value is recognized as a component of other expense (income), net, on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. |

Debt | Debt Delayed Draw Note Purchase Agreement On December 10, 2021, the Company entered into a note and warrant purchase agreement (the “Delayed Draw Note Purchase Agreement”) with certain private placement investors (“Purchasers”) for the sale of delayed draw notes in aggregate of $165.0 million to be available to the Company following the closing of the Business Combination (the “Delayed Draw Notes”). The Delayed Draw Notes have a maturity of five years from the date of issuance and are subject to interest on the unpaid principal amount at a rate per annum equal to the three-month secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) plus 0.3% (subject to a floor of 1.0%) plus 9.0% payable in cash. For the first two years, the Company may elect payment in kind, quarterly in arrears. The Delayed Draw Notes are secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company. The Delayed Draw Note Purchase Agreement also provided that the Purchasers be issued warrants to purchase shares of common stock in connection with the transaction (the “Delayed Draw Warrants”). As a result, the Purchasers are entitled to purchase an aggregate of 2,475,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, each with an exercise price of $12.50 per share. The Delayed Draw Warrants expire five years after issuance. The Delayed Draw Note Purchase Agreement includes customary events of default, including failure to pay the note obligations or other amounts when due, material breach of representations or warranties, breach of negative covenants, failure to perform or comply with obligations under the Delayed Draw Notes or the Delayed Draw Note Purchase Agreement, acceleration of certain other indebtedness, certain judgements against Sonder, legal processes instituted against Sonder or its assets, issues with the enforceability of the Delayed Draw Note Purchase Agreement and ancillary documents, bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceedings with respect to Sonder, and orders under debtor relief laws. In January 2022, upon the closing of the Business Combination, the Company drew $165.0 million in Delayed Draw Notes and issued Delayed Draw Warrants to purchase 2,475,000 shares of common stock to the Purchasers. Long term debt, net consisted of the following at the dates indicated (in thousands): September 30, 2022 December 31, Principal balance $ 177,409 $ 11,361 Less: Delayed Draw Warrants liability (5,122) — Less: unamortized deferred issuance costs (5,580) (625) Long-term debt, net $ 166,707 $ 10,736 Convertible Notes In March 2021, pursuant to a note purchase agreement (the “Note Purchase Agreement”), the Company issued the Convertible Notes to certain investors for an aggregate principal amount of $165.0 million. The net proceeds from the issuance of the Convertible Notes were approximately $162.4 million, net of deferred issuance costs of $2.6 million. The Convertible Notes were scheduled to mature on March 12, 2022, unless converted in accordance with the conversion terms prior to such date. The Convertible Notes were convertible either automatically, at the option of holders, or at the option of the Company upon the occurrence of certain specified events. In January 2022, upon the closing of the Business Combination, the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest of the Convertible Notes were automatically converted into 19,017,105 shares of common stock for a value of $159.2 million. As a result, the Company recognized a gain on conversion of $29.5 million as a result of a change in the fair value of the share-settled redemption feature and $159.2 million additional-paid-in-capital. The Company also recognized the change in fair value of the share-settled redemption feature, prior to conversion, of $30.3 million, expense related to the debt discount of $10.0 million and interest expense of $1.4 million. 2018 Loan and Security Agreement In December 2018, Legacy Sonder entered into a loan and security agreement (the “2018 Loan and Security Agreement”) with certain venture lenders that provided aggregate borrowing capacity of $50.0 million. At December 31, 2021, the Company’s current portion of long-term debt and the non-current portion of long-term debt on the consolidated balance sheet were solely related to the 2018 Loan and Security Agreement, and were net of $0.6 million of deferred issuance costs. At December 31, 2021, unused commitments under the 2018 Loan and Security Agreement were $25.0 million. In January 2022, upon the closing of the Business Combination, the Company paid $24.5 million of the outstanding principal of the 2018 Loan and Security Agreement and $3.1 million in early termination fees. Additionally, in connection with the repayment of the 2018 Loan and Security Agreement, the Company wrote off $0.4 million of deferred issuance costs and recognized $0.2 million of interest expense. Credit Facilities 2020 Credit Facility : In February 2020, Legacy Sonder entered into a revolving credit agreement (the “2020 Credit Facility”) for an aggregate principal balance of $50.0 million with a maturity date of February 21, 2023. Balances may be borrowed against the facility as revolving loans or used for the issuance of letters of credit. Loans under the 2020 Credit Facility may be base rate loans or Eurodollar rate loans, plus a margin of 2.0% per annum. The 2020 Credit Facility includes: (i) a letter of credit fee for each letter of credit equal to 1.5% per annum times amount available to be drawn under such letter of credit and (ii) a non-use fee equal to 0.3% times the actual daily amount by which the aggregate commitments provided by facility exceed the sum of the outstanding amount of loans and letters of credit. The extensions of credit under the 2020 Credit Facility are guaranteed by certain of the Company’s subsidiaries and secured on a senior basis by a lien on substantially all of the Company’s and certain of its subsidiaries’ assets. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants related to the 2020 Credit Facility. Additionally, at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were no borrowings outstanding on the 2020 Credit Facility. Outstanding letters of credit at September 30, 2022 totaled $34.0 million. 2020 Québec Credit Facility : In December 2020, a Canadian subsidiary of the Company entered into an agreement with Investissement Québec, a Quebecois public investment entity, that provides a loan facility of CAD $25.0 million and an additional loan, referred to as a conditional-refund financial contribution (“CRFC”), of CAD $5.0 million (the “2020 Québec Credit Facility”). The loan and the CRFC bear interest at a fixed rate of 6.0% per annum for a period of 10 years starting from the first date of the loan disbursement. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants related to the 2020 Québec Credit Facility, but have not yet met the drawdown requirements, and as such, there have been no borrowings against the 2020 Québec Credit Facility. Restricted Cash Throughout 2022 and 2021, the Company entered into multiple cash collateral agreements in connection with the issuance of letters of credit and corporate credit card programs. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had $1.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, of cash collateral which is reported as restricted cash on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. |

Leases [Abstract] | |
Leases | Leases The Company leases buildings or portions of buildings for guest usage, warehouses to store furniture, and corporate offices under noncancellable operating lease agreements, which expire through 2039. The Company is required to pay property taxes, insu rance, and maintenance costs for certain of these facilities. The Company adopted ASC 842, Leases (“ASC 842”), effective January 1, 2022, using the modified retrospective approach. This approach allows entities to either apply the new lease standard to the beginning of the earliest period presented or only to the condensed consolidated financial statements in the period of adoption without restating prior periods. The Company has elected to apply the new guidance at the date of adoption without restating prior periods. In addition, the Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the new standard, which allowed it to carry forward the historical determination of contracts as leases, lease classification, and not reassess initial direct costs for historical lease arrangements. Accordingly, previously reported financial statements, including footnote disclosures, have not been restated to reflect the application of the new standard to all comparative periods presented. The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, including embedded leases, and has elected to utilize the practical expedient to account for lease and non-lease components together in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Operating lease ROU assets are included within operating lease right-of-use assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The corresponding operating lease liabilities are included within current operating lease liabilities and non-current operating lease liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. The adoption of ASC 842 had a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. On January 1, 2022, the Company recognized $1.0 billion in operating lease ROU assets, $1.1 billion of operating lease liabilities, and a $66.1 million reduction to deferred rent, which was recorded as a reduction to the ROU asset measured on the adoption date. The standard did not materially impact the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss and condensed consolidated statement of cash flows. Lease expense for fixed operating lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company’s assessed lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that it will exercise that option. Certain operating leases provide for annual increases to lease payments based on an index or rate. Management estimates the annual increase in lease payments based on the index or rate at the lease commencement date, for both the Company’s historical leases and for new leases commencing after January 1, 2022. Components of operating lease expense were as follows for the periods indicated (in thousands): Three months ended September 30, 2022 Nine months ended September 30, 2022 Operating lease cost $ 61,498 $ 191,908 Short-term lease cost 1,951 2,430 Total operating lease cost $ 63,449 $ 194,338 Supplemental information related to operating leases was as follows for the periods indicated (in thousands): Three months ended September 30, 2022 Nine months ended September 30, 2022 Cash payments for operating leases $ 64,690 $ 171,292 New operating lease ROU assets obtained in exchange for operating lease liabilities $ 73,007 $ 199,875 At September 30, 2022, the weighted-average remaining lease term was 7.21 years and the weighted-average discount rate used to determine the net present value of the lease liabilities was 9.5%. At September 30, 2022, remaining maturities of operating lease obligations were as follows (in thousands): Remainder of 2022 $ 59,907 2023 263,330 2024 252,202 2025 237,237 2026 212,799 2027 170,179 Thereafter 504,964 Gross lease payments 1,700,618 Less: imputed interest 463,188 Total operating lease obligations, net 1 $ 1,237,430 1 Total operating lease obligations, net excludes $8.5 million of FF&E allowances for leases that have not yet commenced. As such, total operating lease obligations, net per the above table does not agree to the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The Company does not have material lease receivables from noncancellable lease contracts that would reduce the total contractual operating lease obligations. At September 30, 2022, the Company has entered into leases that have not yet commenced with future lease payments totaling $1.9 billion, excluding purchase options, that are not yet recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and are not reflected in the table above. These leases will commence between 2022 and 2026 with non-cancelable lease terms of three Rental expense for operating leases for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 was $61.5 million and $46.9 million, respectively, of which $63.6 million and $45.0 million, respectively, is recognized in cost of revenues, $0.5 million and $1.1 million, respectively, in operations and support, and $0.9 million and $0.8 million, respectively, in general and administrative. Rental expense for operating leases for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 was $193.8 million and $125.5 million, respectively, of which $189.6 million and $119.2 million, respectively, is recognized in cost of revenues, $1.4 million and $3.8 million respectively, in operations and support, and $2.8 million and $2.5 million, respectively, in general and administrative. Supplemental Information for Comparative Periods At December 31, 2021, prior to the adoption of ASC 842, future minimum payments lease payments under non-cancelable operating leases were as follows (in millions): 2022 $ 279,093 2023 366,299 2024 418,156 2025 433,541 2026 403,582 Thereafter 1,641,237 Total minimum future lease payments $ 3,541,908 |

Equity [Abstract] | |
Warrants and Stockholders’ Equity (Deficit) | Warrants and Stockholders’ Equity (Deficit) The condensed consolidated statements of mezzanine equity and stockholders’ equity (deficit) reflect the closing of the Business Combination on January 18, 2022. As Legacy Sonder was deemed the accounting acquirer in the Business Combination with GMII, all periods prior to the closing date reflect the balances and activity of Legacy Sonder. The balances at December 31, 2021 from the consolidated financial statements of Legacy Sonder as of that date, share activity (redeemable convertible preferred stock, exchangeable shares, and common stock), and per share amounts were retroactively adjusted, where applicable, using the recapitalization exchange ratio of 1.4686. All redeemable convertible preferred stock classified as mezzanine equity was converted into common stock, and reclassified into permanent equity as a result of the Business Combination. Preferred Stock Warrants The Company had the following preferred stock warrants outstanding at December 31, 2021 (number outstanding and exercise price are prior to the application of the recapitalization exchange ratio discussed above): Type of Warrant Number Outstanding Issuance Date Exercise Price Expiration Date Series A 59,440 10/20/2016 $ 1.36 10/20/2026 Series B 57,696 1/30/2018 $ 2.40 1/30/2028 Series C 218,417 12/28/2018 $ 5.04 12/28/2025 Series D 71,456 2/21/2020 $ 10.50 2/21/2027 Upon the closing of the Business Combination, (i) the Series A and Series B preferred stock warrants were converted into 150,092 post-combination shares of the Company’s common stock for a value of $1.2 million, and (ii) the Series C and Series D preferred stock warrants automatically converted into warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock. The Series C and Series D preferred stock warrants are accounted for as equity in accordance with ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts on an Entity’s Own Equity (“ASC 815-40”). Upon the closing of the Business Combination, the Company reclassified $2.0 million related to such warrants from other non-current liabilities to equity in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Common Stock Warrants Delayed Draw Warrants : The Delayed Draw Warrants are accounted for as equity-classified warrants in accordance with ASC 815-40. Upon the closing of the Business Combination, the value of the Delayed Draw Warrants was $5.6 million and was recorded within additional paid-in capital in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The purchasers of the Delayed Draw Notes were also provided with customary registration rights for the shares issuable upon exercise of the Delayed Draw Warrants. Public Warrants : The Public Warrants remained outstanding at the closing of the Business Combination and became exercisable for whole shares of common stock. No fractional Public Warrants were issued upon separation of the units and only whole Public Warrants trade. Accordingly, unless a registered holder purchased at least five units, they were not able to receive or trade a whole Public Warrant. The Public Warrants will expire on January 18, 2027, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation. The Public Warrants are accounted for as liabilities, as there are certain terms and features of the warrants that do not qualify for equity classification in accordance with ASC 815-40. The fair value of the Public Warrants upon the closing of the Business Combination was a liability of $23.6 million, and was recorded in other non-current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. At September 30, 2022, the fair value was $1.1 million and was recorded in other non-current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The change in fair value of $0.8 million and $22.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, is reflected as other income in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Private Placement Warrants : The Private Placement Warrants have terms and provisions that are identical to those of the Public Warrants, except that the Private Placement Warrants may be physical (cash) or net share (cashless) settled and are not redeemable, so long as they are held by Gores Metropoulos Sponsor II, LLC (the “Sponsor”) or its permitted transferees, and are entitled to certain registration rights. The sale of the Private Placement Warrants was made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. The Private Placement Warrants are accounted for as liabilities, as there are certain terms and features that do not qualify for equity classification in accordance with ASC 815-40. The fair value of the Private Placement Warrants upon the closing of the Business Combination was a liability of $14.5 million, which was recorded in other non-current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. At September 30, 2022, the fair value was $0.7 million and was recorded in other non-current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The change in fair value of $0.5 million and $13.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, is reflected as other income in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Exchangeable Stock Upon the closing of the Business Combination, each share of Sonder Canada Inc. , a corporation existing under the laws of the province of Québec (“Legacy Sonder Canada”) exchangeable common stock (“Legacy Sonder Canada Exchangeable Stock” and collectively, “Legacy Sonder Canada Exchangeable Shares”) was exchanged into a new series of the same class of virtually identical Legacy Sonder Canada Exchangeable Common Stock (“Post-Combination Exchangeable Common Stock” and collectively, “Post-Combination Exchangeable Shares”) exchangeable for the Company’s common stock.

Equity Incentive Plans and Stock-Based Compensation | Equity Incentive Plans and Stock-Based Compensation Equity Incentive Plan s 2013 and 2019 Equity Incentive Plans : Prior to the closing of the Business Combination, Legacy Sonder provided for the grant of stock-based awards to purchase or directly issue shares of common stock to employees, directors, and consultants through its 2013 and 2019 Equity Incentive Plans (the “Legacy Equity Incentive Plans”). Options were granted at a price per share equal to the fair value of the underlying common stock at the date of grant. Stock options generally had a 10-year contractual term and vest over a four-year period starting from the date specified in each agreement. Each Legacy Sonder stock option from the Legacy Equity Incentive Plans that was outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination, whether vested or unvested, was converted into an option to acquire a number of shares of common stock (the “Exchanged Options”) equal to the product of: (i) the number of shares of Legacy Sonder common stock subject to such Legacy Sonder option immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination; and (ii) the recapitalization option exchange ratio, as discussed in Note 13, Business Combination . The Exchanged Options are exercisable at an exercise price per share equal to: (i) the exercise price per share of such Legacy Sonder option immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination; divided by (ii) the recapitalization exchange ratio. Except as specifically provided in the Merger Agreement (as defined in Note 13, Business Combination) , following the Business Combination, each Exchanged Option will continue to be governed by the same terms and conditions as were applicable to the corresponding former Legacy Sonder option immediately prior to the Business Combination. All stock option activity was retroactively restated to reflect the Exchanged Options. Sonder Holdings Inc. 2021 Management Equity Incentive Plan : In connection with the Business Combination, GMII’s stockholders approved the 2021 Management Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 Management Equity Incentive Plan”). Employees, including directors and officers, and consultants who receive awards under the 2021 Management Equity Incentive Plan may receive their pro-rata share of awards up to an aggregate of 14,500,000 shares of common stock that will vest upon the common stock achieving certain benchmark share prices as contemplated by the Merger Agreement (as defined in Note 13, Business Combination). If these benchmark share prices are not achieved within the period specified in the Merger Agreement (as defined in Note 13, Business Combination), the unvested awards will not be issued. Sonder Holdings Inc. 2021 Equity Incentive Plan : In connection with the Business Combination, GMII’s stockholders approved the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 Equity Incentive Plan”). The 2021 Equity Incentive Plan became effective upon the closing of the Business Combination and succeeds the Legacy Equity Incentive Plans. Under the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan, the Company may grant options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, RSUs, and performance awards to employees, directors, and consultants. Options are granted at a price per share equal to the fair value of the underlying common stock at the date of grant. Options granted are exercisable over a maximum term of 10 years from the date of grant. RSUs typically have a cliff vesting period of one year and continue to vest quarterly thereafter. The Company is authorized to issue up to 26,002,371 shares under this plan, of which 13,466,630 shares remain available for future grants at September 30, 2022. The total number of shares that may be issued under the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan will automatically increase on the first trading day of each calendar year, beginning with calendar year 2022, by a number of shares equal to the least of: (i) 32,820,155 shares; (ii) 12.5% of the total number of shares outstanding as of immediately following the closing of the Business Combination (including the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance upon the exchange of Canadian Exchangeable Shares (as defined in the Merger Agreement) issued in the Sonder Canada Share Capital Reorganization (as defined in the Merger Agreement) corresponding to shares of company special voting stock to be issued immediately following the closing of the Business Combination); (iii) five percent (5.0%) of the total number of shares outstanding on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year; and (iv) a lesser number of shares determined by the administrator. Sonder Holdings Inc. 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan : In connection with the Business Combination, GMII’s stockholders approved the 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”). The ESPP allows eligible employees to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at 85.0% of stock price on the first trading day of the offering period or on the last day of the offering period, whichever is lower. Employees can contribute up to 15.0% of their eligible compensation to purchase shares. The ESPP provides for either (i) a 27-month offering period, or (ii) such shorter period as may be established by the administrator from time to time. The Company is authorized to issue up to 5,251,225 shares under the ESPP, of which all shares remain available for future issuance as of September 30, 2022. The number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the ESPP will automatically be increased on the first day of each fiscal year, beginning with 2022 and ending with the 2041 fiscal year equal to the least of: (i) 6,564,031 shares of common stock; (ii) 2.5% of the total number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately following the closing of the Business Combination (including the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance upon the exchange of Canadian Exchangeable Shares (as defined in the Merger Agreement) issued in the Sonder Canada Share Capital Reorganization (as defined in the Merger Agreement) corresponding to shares of Company special voting stock to be issued immediately following the closing of the Business Combination); (iii) one percent (1.0%) of the outstanding shares of Common Stock on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year; or (iv) a lesser number of shares determined by the administrator. Stock-based Compensation Expense Total stock-based compensation expense is as follows for the periods indicated (in thousands): Three months ended Nine months ended 2022 2021 2022 2021 Operations and support $ 1,333 $ 639 $ 3,305 $ 1,579 General and administrative 4,110 2,405 12,130 17,524 Research and development 855 475 2,441 1,016 Sales and marketing 107 54 263 55 Total stock-based compensation expense $ 6,405 $ 3,573 $ 18,139 $ 20,174 Stock options The Company measures stock-based compensation expense for stock options at the grant date fair value of the award and recognizes the expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period. The fair value of st ock options is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense from stock options of approximately $4.0 million and $12.1 million. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense from stock options of approximately $3.6 million and $8.6 million. The Company recognizes only the portion of the option award granted that is ultimately expected to vest as compensation expense and elects to recognize gross share-based compensation expense with actual forfeitures as they occur. Fair Value of Stock Options : The fair value of each stock option award is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which uses the fair value of the Company’s common stock and requires the input of the following subjective assumptions: Expected term. The expected term for options granted to employees, officers, and directors is based on the historical pattern of option exercise behavior and the period of time they are expected to be outstanding. The expected term for options granted to consultants is determined using the remaining contractual life of the option. Expected volatility. The expected volatility is based on the average volatility of similar public entities within the Company’s peer group as the Company’s stock has not been publicly trading for a long enough period to rely on its own expected volatility. Expected Dividends. The dividend assumption is based on the Company’s historical experience. To date, Company has not paid any dividends on its common stock. Risk-Free Interest Rate. The risk-free interest rate used in the valuation is the implied yield currently available on the United States Treasury zero-coupon issues, with a remaining term equal to the expected life term of the Company’s options. The following table summarizes the key assumptions used to determine the fair value of the Company’s stock options granted to employees, non-employees, officers, and directors: Three months ended September 30, Nine months ended September 30, 2022 2021 2022 2021 Expected term (in years) 6.07 4.00 4.09 - 6.07 3.99 - 4.00 Expected volatility 50.0 % 64.0 % 50.0%-55.4% 64.0 % Dividend yield — % — % — % — % Risk-free interest rate 2.89 % 0.61 % 1.79%-2.93% 0.41% - 0.61% Weighted-average grant-date fair value per share $1.09 $6.59 $0.87 - $2.13 $4.54 - $6.59 Performance and Market-based Equity Awards On November 15, 2019, the Legacy Sonder Board of Directors (t he “Legacy Sonder Board”) granted an award to Francis Davidson, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), for a total of 5,613,290 options (the “2019 CEO Option Award”), which Mr. Davidson exercised in full in December 2020, with a promissory note payable to the Company in the amount of $24.6 million (the “Promissory Note”). 2,041,197 of these options vest in 72 equal monthly installments starting as of October 1, 2017 (the “Service-Based Options”), subject to Mr. Davidson’s continuous employment with the Company, and 3,572,093 options are performance-based (the “CEO Performance Awards”) that vest as follows, subject to Mr. Davidson’s continuous employment with the Company at each such event (the “Performance Conditions”): (i) 1,530,897 performance awards upon an initial public offering (“IPO”), if certain share price targets are met (the “IPO Condition”); (ii) 1,020,598 performance awards upon a qualified financing at certain valuation milestones (the “Qualified Financing Condition”); and (iii) 1,020,598 performance awards upon Sonder achieving a certain market capitalization milestone (the “Market Capitalization Condition”). The fair value of the Service-Based Options was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The grant date fair value of these awards was $3.2 million and was recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the award. The Company recognized $11.6 million in expense for the CEO Performance Awards during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The Company did not recognize any expense for the CEO Performance Awards for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2022, or the nine months ended September 30, 2022. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the CEO Performance Awards were modified to accelerate the vesting of the IPO Condition and the Qualified Financing Condition because the Legacy Sonder Board desired to reward Mr. Davidson in leading the Company to perform above expectations given the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, especially in the hospitality sector, and additionally, engaging the Company in potential strategic transactions which resulted in increased company valuations. While the vesting of the options under the Market Capitalization Condition were not accelerated by the Legacy Sonder Board, the Legacy Sonder Board approved a resolution clarifying that the Market Capitalization Condition would be eligible to vest in connection with a business combination with a special purpose acquisition company that otherwise achieves the applicable Market Capitalization Condition using an equivalent share price rather than the market capitalization. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, Sonder recognized $0.5 million and $3.2 million in stock-based compensation expense related to the vesting of the Market Capitalization Condition. In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, Sonder did not recognize any stock-based compensation expense relating to the vesting of the Market Capitalization Condition. The modification-date fair value of the CEO Performance Awards was estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation. The Monte Carlo simulation utilizes multiple input variables to estimate the probability that performance conditions will be achieved. These variables include the Company’s expected stock price volatility over the expected term of the award, historical and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors, and the risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the award. The Company recognizes compensation expense for its performance awards using an accelerated attribution method from the time it is deemed probable that the vesting condition will be met through the time the service-based vesting condition has been achieved. The Promissory Note bore interest at the rate of 2.0% per annum, compounding semiannually. The principal amounts and accrued interest were due upon the consummation of the Business Combination. The Promissory Note was secured by the shares issued upon exercise of the award and in exchange for the note. While the Promissory Note is full recourse, it was considered to be non-recourse for accounting purposes and thus was not recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as a receivable. At December 31, 2021, the aggregate borrowings outstanding under the Promissory Note, including interest, was $25.2 million. On January 14, 2022, the aggregate outstanding principal amount and interest under the Promissory Note was repaid in full as a result of Mr. Davidson selling 1,855,938 shares of Legacy Sonder common stock to the Company at a repurchase price of $13.85 per Legacy Sonder common share (number of shares and amount per share is not adjusted for the application of the recapitalization exchange ratio discussed above ), which was equal to the fair value of a share of Legacy Sonder common stock as of the repurchase date, for a total aggregate repurchase price of $25.7 million . On February 18, 2021, the Legacy Sonder Board granted a total of 3,061,794 options to Mr. Davidson (the “2021 CEO Option Award”). The options vest upon the successful closing of the Business Combination and upon certain share price milestones, subject to Mr. Davidson’s continuous employment at the Company during each such event. The grant-date fair value of the 2021 CEO Option Award was estimated using the Monte Carlo simulation. The grant-date fair value of the 2021 CEO Option Award on the grant date was $1.3 million. RSUs The fair value of the Company’s RSUs is expensed ratably over the vesting period. The Company’s RSUs generally vest over four years, with a cliff equal to one-fourth of the award after the first year, and then quarterly thereafter over the remaining service period. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense from RSUs of approximately $1.6 million and $2.5 million, respectively. There was no stock-based compensation expense from RSUs in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. MSUs In May 2022, the Company issued MSUs to certain key executives in accordance with the Company’s 2021 Management Equity Incentive Plan. One-sixth of the MSUs vest upon (including prior to but contingent on) the occurrence of each of six distinct triggering events, including if certain share price targets are met, within the five-year period ending July 17, 2027. The Company determined the grant-date fair value of the MSUs using a Monte Carlo simulation performed by a third-party valuation firm. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation for the MSUs over the requisite service period, which is appro ximately four years, using the accelerated attribution method. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company granted 14,499,972 MSUs at a total grant-date fair value of $4.2 million. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recognized approximately $0.3 million and $0.4 million, respectively, in stock-based compensation expense from MSUs. |

Net Loss Per Common Share | Net Loss per Common Share Net loss per share calculations and share amounts for all periods prior to the Business Combination presented below have been retrospectively adjusted for the equivalent number of shares outstanding immediately after the closing of the Business Combination to effect the reverse recapitalization. Subsequent to the Business Combination, net loss per share was calculated based on the weighted average number of common stock then outstanding. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share for the periods indicated (in thousands, except number of shares and per share information): Three months ended Nine months ended 2022 2021 2022 2021 Numerator: Net loss $ (74,499) $ (64,584) $ (95,882) $ (217,074) Less: Net loss attributable to convertible and exchangeable preferred stockholders — — (3,886) — Net loss attributable to common stockholders $ (74,499) $ (64,584) $ (91,996) $ (217,074) Denominator: Weighted average basic common shares outstanding 215,682,346 12,204,601 202,513,880 11,472,291 Add: Dilutive effect of outstanding stock awards — — — — Weighted average diluted common shares outstanding 215,682,346 12,204,601 202,513,880 11,472,291 Net loss per common share: Basic $ (0.35) $ (5.29) $ (0.45) $ (18.92) Diluted $ (0.35) $ (5.29) $ (0.45) $ (18.92) The following potential common shares outstanding were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share because including them would have been anti-dilutive: September 30, 2022 2021 Options to purchase common stock 32,655,185 26,178,842 Common stock subject to repurchase or forfeiture 2,043,262 2,563,110 Outstanding MSUs 14,499,972 — Redeemable convertible preferred stock (1) — 111,257,435 Exchangeable shares 20,834,164 32,310,553 Total common stock equivalents 70,032,583 172,309,940 ____________ (1) Includes the warrants reclassified to equity as of September 30, 2022 and those issued in connection with the 2018 Loan and Security Agreement and related amendment as of December 31, 2021 . |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Commitments and Contingencies | Commitments and Contingencies Surety Bonds A portion of the Company’s leases are supported by surety bonds provided by affiliates of certain insurance companies. At September 30, 2022, the Company had commitments from five surety providers in the amount of $67.1 million, of which $33.6 million was outstanding. The availability, terms and conditions, and pricing of bonding capacity are dependent on, among other things, continued financial strength and stability of the insurance company affiliates providing the bonding capacity, general availability of such capacity, and the Company’s corporate credit rating. Legal and Regulatory Matters The Company has been and expects to continue to become involved in litigation or other legal proceedings from time to time, including the matter described below. Except as described below, the Company is not currently a party to any litigation or legal proceedings that, in the opinion of management, is likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business. Regardless of outcome, litigation and other legal proceedings can have an adverse impact on the Company because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources, possible restrictions on the business as a result of settlement or adverse outcomes, and other factors. In February 2020, the Company was informed about an investigation underway by the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene relating to possible Legionella bacteria contamination in the water supply at 20 Broad Street, New York, NY (the “Broad Street Property”). Due to the failure of the owner of the Broad Street Property (the “Broad Street Landlord”) to address the Legionella bacteria contamination and the associated health risks posed to Sonder’s guests, the Company withheld payment of rent to the Broad Street Landlord on grounds of, among other reasons, constructive eviction. On July 30, 2020, the Broad Street Landlord sued Sonder USA Inc., Sonder Canada Inc., and Sonder Holdings Inc. for breach of the lease, seeking no less than $3.9 million in damages. The Company filed counterclaims against the Broad Street Landlord and the property management company for breach of contract, seeking significant damages. The Broad Street Landlord filed a motion for summary judgment. The hearing and oral argument for the summary judgment motion occurred on December 21, 2021. No ruling was issued by the judge. The motion for summary judgment is now under submission. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself and management believes that the claims of the Broad Street Landlord are without merit. The Company establishes an accrued liability for loss contingencies related to legal matters when a loss is both probable and reasonably estimable. These accruals represent management’s best estimate of probable los ses. The Company recorded an estimated accrual of $3.2 million and $5.3 million in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Management’s views and estimates related to these matters may change in the future, as new events and circumstances arise and the matters continue to develop. Until the final resolution of legal matters, there may be an exposure to losses in excess of the amounts accrued. With respect to outstanding legal matters, based on management’s current knowledge, the amount or range of reasonably possible loss will not, either individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows. Legal fees are expensed as incurred. Indemnifications The Company has entered into indemnification agreements with all of its directors. The indemnification agreements and its Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Bylaws”) require the Company to indemnify these individuals to the fullest extent not prohibited by Delaware law. Subject to certain limitations, the indemnification agreements and Bylaws also require the Company to advance expenses incurred by its directors. No demands have been made for the Company to provide indemnification under the indemnification agreements or the Bylaws, and thus, there are no claims that management is aware of that could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows. In the ordinary course of business, the Company has included limited indemnification provisions under certain agreements with parties with whom it has commercial relations of varying scope and terms with respect to certain matters, including losses arising out of its breach of such agreements or out of intellectual property infringement claims made by third parties. It is not possible to determine the maximum potential loss under these indemnification provisions due to the limited history of prior indemnification claims and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular provision. To date, no material costs have been incurred, either individually or collectively, in connection with the Company’s indemnification provisions. |

Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract] | |
Business Combination | Business Combination On January 18, 2022, the Company closed the previously announced Business Combination pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated April 29, 2021 (as amended by the Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 27, 2021 (“Amendment No. 1”)) (collectively, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among GMII, Sunshine Merger Sub I, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Second Merger Sub, Sunshine Merger Sub II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of GMII, and Legacy Sonder. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement: (i) First Merger Sub merged with and into Legacy Sonder, with Legacy Sonder continuing as the surviving corporation (the “First Merger”); and (ii) immediately following the First Merger and as part of the same overall transaction as the First Merger, Legacy Sonder merged with and into Second Merger Sub, with Second Merger Sub continuing as the surviving entity and, together with the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “Second Merger”). As a result of the First Merger, Second Merger Sub owned 100.0% of the outstanding capital stock of Legacy Sonder as the surviving corporation of the First Merger and each share of capital stock of Legacy Sonder was cancelled and converted into the right to receive the merger consideration in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement. As a result of the Second Merger, GMII (which was renamed Sonder Holdings Inc.) now owns 100.0% of the outstanding interests in the surviving entity of the Second Merger (the “Surviving Entity”). The aggregate merger consideration (excluding any Earn Out shares) paid to securityholders of Legacy Sonder immediately prior to the effective time of the First Merger (the “Legacy Sonder Securityholders”) in connection with the Business Combination was approximately 190,160,300 shares of GMII’s common stock (the “Common Stock”, which term (a) with reference to GMII prior to the Business Combination and the effectiveness of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation”), means the Class A Stock and the Class F Stock, and (b) with reference to Sonder from and after the effectiveness of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and the conversion of the Class F Stock in accordance with the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, means the common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Sonder). Certain of these shares of Common Stock were reserved for issuance upon: (i) the exercise of Rollover Options (as defined below) and (ii) the exchange of the Post-Combination Exchangeable Common Stock (as defined below) corresponding to shares of Post-Combination Company Special Voting Common Stock (as defined below) issued in the Business Combination. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement: • holders of existing shares of Common Stock of Legacy Sonder, par value $0.000001 per share (the “Legacy Sonder Common Stock”) (following the conversion of each issued and outstanding share of Legacy Sonder’s preferred stock and the convertible promissory notes issued by Legacy Sonder to certain purchasers pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement, dated March 12, 2021, as amended, into shares of Legacy Sonder Common Stock prior to the effective time of the First Merger), received approximately 140,544,052 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, pursuant to the recapitalization exchange ratio of 1.4686 shares for each share of Legacy Sonder Common Stock held; • holders of existing shares of Special Voting Series AA Common Stock, par value $0.000001 per share (“Legacy Sonder Special Voting Common Stock”), received approximately 32,296,539 shares of the newly created Post-Combination Special Voting Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Post-Combination Special Voting Common Stock”), pursuant to the recapitalization exchange ratio of 1.4686 shares for each share of Legacy Sonder Special Voting Common Stock held; • holders of Series AA Common Exchangeable Preferred Shares (“Legacy Sonder Canada Exchangeable Common Shares”) of Sonder Canada Inc., a corporation existing under the laws of the province of Québec (“Legacy Sonder Canada”) received Post-Combination Exchangeable Common Stock whose terms provide: (i) for a deferral of any mandatory exchange caused by the Business Combination for a period of at least 12 months from the closing date of the Business Combination, and (ii) that such Post-Combination Exchangeable Common Stock shall be exchangeable for Common Stock upon the completion of the Business Combination; and • holders of options to purchase Legacy Sonder Common Stock (“Legacy Sonder Stock Options”) received options to acquire approximately 30,535,549 shares of Company’s Common Stock (“Rollover Options”), pursuant to the option exchange ratio of 1.5444 shares for each share of Legacy Sonder Stock Options held. As a result of the above, the share figures as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 in the condensed consolidated statement of mezzanine equity and stockholders’ equity (deficit) and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 have been adjusted for the application of the recapitalization exchange ratio of 1.4686 per share. In addition, all options were adjusted for the option exchange ratio of 1.5444 shares for each share of Legacy Sonder Stock Options held. Following the closing of the Business Combination, the Company owned all of the issued and outstanding equity interests in Legacy Sonder and its subsidiaries, and the Legacy Sonder Securityholders held approximately 79.7% of the Company. Following the closing of the Business Combination, the Company’s Common Stock and the Company’s Public Warrants began trading on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbols “SOND” and “SONDW,” respectively. In addition to the consideration paid at the closing of the Business Combination, immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination, holders of Legacy Sonder Common Stock, Legacy Sonder Canada Exchangeable Common Shares, and warrants of Legacy Sonder were entitled to receive their pro-rata share of up to an aggregate of 14,500,000 additional shares of Common Stock as consideration as a result of the Common Stock achieving certain benchmark share prices as contemplated by the Merger Agreement. The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization. Under this method of accounting, GMII was treated as the acquired company for financial statement reporting purposes. The most significant change in the Company’s reported financial position and results is an increase in cash (as compared to the Company’s consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2021) of approximately $401.9 million, net of the payoff of $24.7 million outstanding principal of certain promissory notes which were executed under the 2018 Loan and Security Agreement, as well as non-recurring transaction costs of $58.6 million. The $401.9 million includes $159.2 million of Delayed Draw Notes, net of issuance costs. The Business Combination was treated as an acquisition of control of Legacy Sonder’s stock for tax purposes. As a result, the foreign capital loss carryforwards available to Legacy Sonder as of December 31, 2021 expired, and the Company is no longer eligible to utilize these foreign capital loss carryforwards in future periods. Closing of Private Investment in Public Equity (“PIPE”) Investments Pursuant to subscription agreements entered into in connection with the Merger Agreement (the “Existing Subscription Agreements”), certain investors agreed to subscribe for an aggregate of 20,000,000 newly issued shares of Class A Stock (which became common stock upon the effectiveness of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation) for a purchase price of $10.00 per share, or an aggregate value of approximately $200 million (the “Existing PIPE Investment”). In addition, pursuant to subscription agreements entered into in connection with Amendment No.1, certain investors agreed to subscribe for an additional 11,507,074 newly issued shares of Class A Stock (which became common stock upon the effectiveness of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation) for a purchase price of $8.89 per share, or an aggregate value of approximately $102.3 million (the “New PIPE Investment”). In addition, concurrently with the execution of Amendment No. 1, GMII entered into a subscription agreement with the Sponsor whereby the Sponsor separately agreed to purchase an additional 709,711 shares of Class A Stock (which became common stock upon the effectiveness of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation) in a private placement for $10.00, or an aggregate value of approximately $7.1 million (the “Additional Sponsor PIPE Commitment” and, together with the Existing PIPE Investment and the New PIPE Investment, the “PIPE Investment”). At the closing of the Business Combination, the Company consummated the PIPE Investment. The following table reconciles the elements of the Business Combination to the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows and the consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity (deficit) for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 (in thousands): Cash - PIPE Financing $ 309,398 Cash - GMII trust and cash, net of redemptions 16,530 Less: transaction costs and advisory fees (58,555) Net proceeds from Business Combination and PIPE $ 267,373 Proceeds from Delayed Draw Notes, net of issuance costs 159,225 Repayment of debt (24,680) Net proceeds from Business Combination, PIPE, and Delayed Draw Notes $ 401,918 |

Basis of Financial Statement Presentation and Principles of Consolidation | Basis of Financial Statement Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”, “U.S. GAAP”, or “generally accepted accounting principles”). The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Sonder Holdings Inc., its wholly owned subsidiaries, and one variable interest entity (“VIE”) for which it is the primary beneficiary in accordance with consolidation accounting guidance. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position at September 30, 2022 and its results of operations and comprehensive loss, mezzanine equity and stockholders’ equity (deficit), for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.

Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting periods. Such management estimates include the fair value of share-based awards, estimated useful life of software development costs, bad-debt allowances, valuation of intellectual property and intangible assets, contingent liabilities, and valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, among others. These estimates are based on information available as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements; therefore, actual results could differ from those estimates. |

These reclassifications did not affect previously reported amounts of net income, total assets, or total stockholders’ equity (deficit). |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recently Adopted Accounting Standards In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) , which has subsequently been amended by ASUs 2018-01, 2018-10, 2018-11, 2018-20, 2019-01, 2019-10, and 2020-05. The guidance requires the recognition of ROU assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for substantially all leases under U.S. GAAP. The Company has elected to use the transition relief approach as provided in ASU 2018-11, which permits the Company to use January 1, 2022 as both the application date and the adoption date, rather than the modified retrospective approach. The Company also elected certain relief options offered within the new standard, which include the package of practical expedients, the option not to recognize an ROU asset and lease liability that arise from short-term leases (i.e., leases with terms of 12 months or less), and the option of hindsight when determining lease term. Substantially all of the Company’s lease agreements are considered operating leases and were not previously recognized on the Company’s balance sheets. On January 1, 2022, the Company recognized $1.0 billion in operating lease ROU assets, $1.1 billion of operating lease liabilities, and a $66.1 million reduction to deferred rent, which was recorded as a reduction the ROU asset measured on the adoption date. Refer to Note 6, Leases, for further discussion of the Company’s lease accounting. In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt — Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity , which simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments by reducing the number of accounting models available for convertible debt instruments. This guidance also eliminates the treasury stock method to calculate diluted earnings per share for convertible instruments and requires the use of the if-converted method. For public companies, the guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company early adopted ASU 2020-06 beginning January 1, 2021, and the adoption did not have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements. Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments , which has subsequently been amended by ASUs 2018-19, 2019-04, 2019-05, 2019-10, and 2019-11. The guidance changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. The guidance replaces the current ‘incurred loss’ model with an ‘expected loss’ approach. This generally will result in the earlier recognition of allowances for losses and requires increased disclosures. ASU 2016-13 was effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. In November 2019, FASB issued amended guidance which defers the effective date for emerging growth companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods therein. The Company is currently evaluating the impact ASU 2016-13 will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) , which was subsequently amended by ASU 2021-04. The guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions to contract modifications and hedging relationships that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. The standard is effective upon issuance through December 31, 2022 and may be applied at the beginning of the interim period that includes March 12, 2020 or any date thereafter. The Company does not have any hedging relationships and currently does not have material contracts impacted by reference rate reform; however, the Company will continue to assess contracts through December 31, 2022. |
