What your photo becomes
What our resizer and photo lab export for Booking.com, worked out with the same code they run. Larger photos are scaled down to the best size; nothing is ever enlarged.

Questions
What size should Booking.com photos be?
Landscape only, at least 2048 × 1080 pixels and ideally 4000 × 3000. You need 5 photos to finish registration; Booking.com recommends at least 10.
How many photos does Booking.com need?
At least 5 to finish sign-up; at least 10 recommended.
Can I use edited or AI photos on Booking.com?
Booking.com asks for photos that show the property accurately and are well lit. Light and colour fixes are fine.
Should I upscale a small photo to meet the Booking.com minimum?
No. Enlarging adds pixels, not detail, and the photo looks soft. Our tools never upscale: a photo below 2048 × 1080 is skipped for this size with the reason, so you can retake it.
