On Google Maps, you can write reviews for places you visit. You can also leave info or post photo or video updates about a place, like if it’s quiet and romantic or if it’s under renovation.
Important: To keep policy violators off Google Maps, we moderate user reviews and related content. Any violations we find are subject for review and removal.
Learn more about Google Maps' user-generated content policy and learn more about prohibited and restricted content and behaviors.
About public info
All reviews are public and anyone can find what you add. You’re unable to add an anonymous review.
Here's some more info others can find when you write a review:
- The name on your About me page.
- Other photos and videos you added to Google Maps, and the location info that's attached.
- Reviews you wrote on Google Maps.
Tip: If you’re a Local Guide, you can get points when you add photos and videos to Google Maps. Learn how to provide high quality reviews and photos.
Add a rating or review
To help you share an experience, or help others choose or make a better decision, you can add ratings or reviews.
Before you add a rating or review, make sure to follow the content policy. Reviews and ratings may be removed from the page, and in most cases, they are removed for policy violations like spam or inappropriate content.
We don't reinstate reviews that were removed for policy violations. These removal measures help make sure that reviews on Google properties are relevant, helpful, and trustworthy. Learn about prohibited and restricted content for reviews.
