Remove a review from a host or guest

While you can’t remove a review you wrote or received on your own, you can ask us for help.

Note: For services and experiences, only guests can leave a review.

Remove a review you received

If a host or guest left you a review and it doesn't follow our Reviews Policy, you can ask us to remove it.

Who can ask to have a review removed

A review written about you or or listing will only be displayed on your profile or listing if you are:

  • The listing owner
  • A full access co-host of a home or service
  • A broad permissions pro-host, or member of the hosting team in managed accounts or pro-host accounts
  • A team owner
  • Part of “team guest management”
  • The guest who booked the reservation

If you try to make a review removal request and can't, you or another eligible person may have already made a request that is still open.
