## Inserting Points of Interest on my location map

  
With this configuration, hoteliers can add Points of Interest on their location page, so clients can be aware of nearby attractions that could appeal for them stay.

  
***STEP 1:***  First you need to go to **Setup** - **Home** - **Location and Maps**.

  
***STEP 2:***On the new search box on the map, search for a Point Of Interest that you, as a hotelier, would like to show on your location webpage.

  
- As the nearby hotels add points of interest in the area, you will see those as a suggestion as well
- It's not necessary to add the Points Of Interest inserted by other hotels. They will be shown as a suggestion

 
***STEP 3:***When adding a Point Of Interest, click on it followed by a click on "add", and this Point of Interest will change from grey to the colour of the category that it belongs and the button **Add** will be replaced by **Remove**.

  
### NOTE:

 
- You can filter your Point Of Interest by category. By default, no category is selected and all are shown. If you wish to add them, category by category, for example, just check categories to see only Points Of Interests from that.

  
- When a Point Of Interest appears as "Not Listed" it's because they are added with a Guestcentric category that matches Google types. Unfortunately not all added POIs are well categorized in Google Maps meaning that a well know place may not be as so, leading to a “Category not listed” warning message in our backend.

 
If you really want a Pont of Interest not listed to start showing, you can send that suggestion to Google [here](https://support.google.com/maps/answer/6320846?hl=en&ref_topic=3257381), so they can update their maps. Once they do, it will update Guestcentric maps as well and you will be able to add it to your property.
