Added a hotel but it doesn’t appear on the map

0

Hi, I tried to add an hotel and inserted tourism=hotel tag into "feature field" but it didn't appear on openstreet map results, it shows me many category but not hotel. I tried to insert it into italian or with similar name and nothing. It seems impossibile to add an hotel. Please can you tell me how to do it? It's my first job with openstreetmap.

Thank you

Hi.

the hotel you recently added does appear on the default map.

The default map view on openstreetmap.org is updated is near real time. The "near" is important, it can be some minutes, hours for larger objects.

And then there are the cache problems. A Ctrl+Shift+R usually helps, as it cleans the cache of your browser.

Regards.
