Great stay, but not sure how to sum it up? These templates give you a starting point — swap in specific details from your trip and post it in your own words. Specific reviews help other travelers far more than a plain star rating.

Tips for writing your own from scratch
- Mention a specific amenity, view, or location detail rather than just "nice hotel"
- Note anything a staff member did that stood out — it's useful to future guests
- Two to four sentences is plenty — specificity matters more than length
