Can You Remove Google Reviews? What Australian Businesses Can Delete
Can you delete or remove a Google review from your Business Profile? The honest answer, what qualifies and what to do next.
Can you remove Google reviews yourself?
No — a business owner can't delete a Google review directly. Only Google (or the person who wrote it) can remove it. What you *can* do is report a review that breaks Google's policies and ask Google to take it down.
Can you delete a Google review you wrote?
Yes. If you posted the review, open Google Maps, go to Your contributions → Reviews, and choose Delete review.

Which reviews won't be removed?
An honest negative review from a real customer usually stays, even if it feels unfair. In that case a calm, professional reply and more genuine reviews are the best response.
