Key features of the Tripadvisor Reviews widget

  • Star rating header: Shows your overall Tripadvisor rating and number of reviews, linked to your Tripadvisor profile.
  • Four layouts: List, Grid, Slider and Badge, so the widget fits a full reviews page or a small sidebar.

Why show Tripadvisor reviews on your website?

Travelers often compare hotels, restaurants and tours on Tripadvisor before they book. When they land on your website, seeing the same recognizable rating and real guest stories reassures them that they are making a good choice, right where they can book. A Tripadvisor reviews widget is a good fit for:

  • Hotels, guesthouses, B&Bs and vacation rentals
  • Restaurants, cafés and bars
  • Tour operators, travel agencies and activity providers
  • Museums, attractions and event venues

Tip: Place the widget near your booking or reservation button, where guests make their decision. If you also get reviews on Booking.com or Airbnb, you can show those with the Booking.com Reviews and Airbnb Reviews widgets.

How to add the Tripadvisor Reviews widget to your website

After you save the widget, Elfsight gives you a short embed code. Paste it into a custom HTML or embed block where you want the reviews to show. It works on WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, Shopify, Webflow, Google Sites and any other website that accepts custom HTML. For step-by-step instructions for each platform, see our guide on how to add embed code to any website builder.

Good places for Tripadvisor reviews are your homepage, your rooms or menu page, and your booking or contact page. A Grid or Slider works well on a dedicated reviews section, while the Badge layout fits a sidebar or footer.

How to manage your Tripadvisor Reviews widget

Log in to your Elfsight dashboard to edit your widget at any time. Changes go live automatically, so you don’t need to replace the embed code on your website. From the dashboard you can also create more widgets, copy the embed code again and see how many views your widget has used this month.
