What Is Hotel Booking Reviews MotoPress?
Hotel Booking Reviews MotoPress is developed by MotoPress and is a booking extension plugin for WordPress. It belongs to the booking category on WPExclusive, alongside other tools for hospitality and rental management.
This plugin solves the challenge of collecting and displaying user-generated content specifically for accommodation types. It is designed for boutique hotels, vacation rentals, and property managers who already utilize the core MotoPress Hotel Booking engine.
Hotel Booking Reviews MotoPress Features
The feature set is built around a flexible criteria-based rating system that integrates with the core WordPress comment structure.
Five-Star Multi-Criteria Ratings
Travelers can grant individual accommodations up to five stars across multiple parameters. You can add unlimited custom evaluation criteria such as cleanliness, value for money, and services to add weight to the final average rating. These criteria use the native WordPress taxonomy, making them compatible with multilingual plugins like WPML for international reach.
Native WordPress Integration
The plugin converts standard comments into structured reviews on accommodation pages. This allows you to moderate, approve, or delete feedback via the familiar WordPress comments menu. Because it uses the native system, you retain your data even if the add-on is deactivated, and it remains compatible with anti-spam tools like Akismet.
Flexible Display and Layouts
Reviews can be displayed in list or grid formats with an adjustable number of columns. You can embed reviews on any page or widget zone using a dedicated shortcode or the “Accommodation Reviews” widget. This functionality supports the promotion of specific properties across your entire marketing site rather than just on the room details page.
