What gets in the way for a B&B or holiday cottage
All your reviews sit on the platforms
A great Airbnb or Booking.com rating does not follow you to Google. And those reviews are not yours: they vanish if you leave the platform.
The traveller who searches Google
Someone typing your house name, or “B&B” and your village, lands on your Google listing. With few reviews there, they go and book on a platform.
A personal relationship
In a B&B you have shared breakfast. Asking for a review has to stay natural, not salesy.
Few stays, every review counts
With a few rooms you host far fewer guests than a hotel. Not asking means losing a large share of the reviews you could get.
How it works with Voxtya
- The QR code in the welcome book. A “Your review matters” page in the welcome book, a card on the breakfast table on the last morning. The QR code opens your review page, then Google.
- The email after check-out. For stays booked direct on your Voxtya page, the review request is emailed the day after departure. For others, a campaign to past guests, with an unsubscribe link.
- Reply the way you speak. The AI drafts a personal reply (the first name, a detail the guest mentioned) in the review’s language. You adjust it and paste it on Google.
- Google reviews on your website. With the Website, your Google reviews show on your page, next to your rooms and direct booking.

Our accommodation demo is Hôtel Belvédère: the review page is the same for a B&B, with your name and your colours.
