Add Highlights Icons On Google Maps

It would be great if the Highlights Icon that features the highlights of places like restaurants, hotels etc on Google Search be available on Google Maps. Currently this feature is only available on Google Search. It will be great if it is also available on Google Maps as well. Users will be able to see the attributed icons of a place highlighted feature. This is a feature I have awaited long enough to see on Google Maps, I  hope it will be implemented.

I have attached a photo below for you to see an example of a sampes restaurant listing highlights on Google Search.

This would be so helpfull f the same highlights that are shown in google search are added to google maps , people would easly know the features of a place by just looking these icons .

Thumbs up for me brother . @HelloSamsonR

Thanks @NarenChandra  for sharing your thoughts, no doubt it is a very useful feature. I personally use this frequently to know features of places when I search. Hope it gets implemented too on Google Maps.

Google Maps is convenient for me in Bahrain and I am in Bahrain for long. But when I visit a new place I have found difficulty in reaching the exact location.

 

For example : Kuwait, Salmiya - I have no idea where is this place. So to understand the place I wish you could have a Nearest Iconic Buildings or local famous area section. It could be any concrete structure, monument, worship place, petrol pump restaurant etc.

 

But it depends on people in that area voting for the building as iconic local spot.

Предлогаю на картах с ресторанами, ставить сверху метки "ресторан" так же минимальную цену заказа, а так же оценку самого заведения.

Это поможет людям сэкономить время, в поиске ресторана в соответствии критериев цена/качество.

Hello! I'm Nora from Argentina.

Recent I was around Uruguay and in every city was a public place call Antel whit open WiFi. Also there is some places In Argentina to, but not in all of them. 

The point is that is not easy to find the public place whit open Wi-Fi and the idea is make a pointer on  google maps  to indicate where fund open Wi-Fi.

Hej, uważam że brakuje na mapach Google oznaczenia miejsc w których można doładować telefon lub w których jest dostęp do wody. 

Podczas podróży chętnie bym z takich informacji skorzystał.

Myślę, że gdyby można było takie miejsca zaznaczać na mapach to wiele firm, restauracji czy sklepów zaczęło by udostępniać prąd żeby tylko się wyróżnić. 

Co o tym myślicie?

It would be nice if Google ask restaurants that if their food are friendly for Muslim. Comparing to vegan, the food or the restaurants are more difficult to tell if they are friendly to Muslim. Lots of restaurant in Asian countries use pork oil when they cook so that's a huge problem for them. If Google can add this question to Google map then it will be awesome!
