Step-by-step guide
How to embed Expedia reviews on your website
To embed Expedia reviews on your website, paste your property's Hotel-Information URL into Reviews Widget, style the grid, then copy one script tag into your site. Guest photos and management responses come across automatically.

Step 1 — find your Expedia link
Everything starts with the public Expedia URL. There is no API key, no app install and nothing to configure on Expedia itself.
- 1Search for your property on expedia.com.
- 2Open the property page — the URL ends in Hotel-Information.
- 3Copy the full URL. Tracking parameters are stripped automatically; Hotels.com links work too.
- 4Paste it into Add source → Expedia in your dashboard.

Free plan, no credit card. Your reviews are embedded before you finish this guide.
- 1Create a free account. Sign up at reviewswidget.app and create your first grid. No card is needed to start.
- 2Add the review source. Open Add source in the left sidebar, choose the platform, then paste the listing URL. Reviews import within about a minute.
- 3Style the widget. Pick grid, masonry, list, carousel or floating star badge, then set colours, corner style, header text and how many words show before Read more.
- 4Copy the embed code. Open Add to your site and copy the single <script> tag. It renders inside a Shadow DOM so nothing inherits or leaks your site's CSS.
- 5Paste it into your website. Drop the script into any HTML block — WordPress Custom HTML, Shopify custom Liquid, Wix Embed HTML, Squarespace Code block, Webflow Embed, or straight into your template.
- 6Publish and check the stars. Publish the page, then run it through Google's Rich Results Test to confirm the Review and AggregateRating markup is valid.
Where to paste the script on each platform
| Platform | Where the embed code goes |
|---|---|
| WordPress | A Custom HTML block in Gutenberg, a Classic Editor text tab, or a sidebar HTML widget |
| Elementor | The HTML widget inside any section or column |
| Shopify | A custom Liquid section on the page or product template |
| Wix | The Embed HTML element (Embed a widget) in the Editor or Wix Studio |
| Squarespace | A Code block on 7.1, with Display Source unticked |
| Webflow | An Embed element in Designer, then publish |
| Plain HTML | Anywhere in the body — static sites, Astro, Next.js, Hugo, Eleventy or Jekyll |
The exact clicks for each builder are covered in the pillar embed guide — the steps are identical whichever review source you connected.
Step 3 — check your star markup
The widget emits Review and AggregateRating JSON-LD when schema is enabled for that widget. Reviews must be visible on the page for markup to be eligible, and Google decides whether to show a rich result. More detail in review schema explained and star rich snippets.
Before you publish
Connect only a listing you own or are authorised to represent. Reviews appear exactly as published, with the Expedia source badge and a link to the original review on every card. Expedia is a trademark of its owner; Reviews Widget is not affiliated with Expedia.
