## Pricing

from $0.60 / 1,000 results

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## Google Hotels scraper

Manually copying hotel reviews is a massive time-sink. Paste a Google Hotels page and get the guest reviews as clean rows **in seconds**.

### Engineering Excellence & Reliability 🚀

- **Zero-Friction Resolution**: paste a hotel page or the hotel entity ID. Set the same filters as the reviews panel: order, review source, and topic. Each row is one guest review: score, text, guest name, date, source, highlights, room/service/location scores, aspect notes, hotel reply, and photos.
- **High-Velocity Automation**: pagination is handled; large hotels keep going up to **maxItems**.
- **Beyond the website limit**: We bypass the website limitation and go beyond it. Duplicates are skipped.
- **enterprise-Grade Resilience**: clean JSON, CSV, Excel, or API.
- **Lightweight Pay-Per-Event**: you pay for the rows you receive.

### 🛠️ How to Play

#### Input Parameters

| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| `startUrl` | String | **(Required)** Hotel page URL or hotel entity ID. `ChcI6cDSjb3e-ItCGgsvZy8xdGh0MDdyaxAB` and `https://www.google.com/travel/hotels/entity/ChcI6cDSjb3e-ItCGgsvZy8xdGh0MDdyaxAB/reviews` are the same hotel. |
| `maxItems` | Number | How many reviews do you actually need? (Default: 100) |
| `sortBy` | String | `most_helpful`, `most_recent`, `highest_score`, or `lowest_score`. |
| `reviewSource` | String | `all`, `Google`, or another source shown on that hotel, such as `Tripadvisor` or `IHG`. |
| `topic` | String | Aspect from the reviews panel, such as `Breakfast` or `Service`. Empty means every review. |

#### Example

```json
{
    "startUrl": "ChcI6cDSjb3e-ItCGgsvZy8xdGh0MDdyaxAB",
    "maxItems": 100,
    "sortBy": "most_recent",
    "reviewSource": "Google",
    "topic": "staff"
}
```

### 🆓 Free tier limitations

We want you to see how this actor works before you commit. To keep things fair for everyone, the **free tier** usually includes these trial limits:

- **Sample data:** up to **5 listings** per run—enough to check data quality.
- **Daily cap:** **5 runs** per calendar day (UTC).
- **Between runs:** at least **60 seconds** before you can start another run.

#### Upgrade when you're ready!

Use the free tier to decide if this actor fits your project. Paid Apify plans remove these wait times and caps so you can run at full volume—[**upgrade to a paid plan**](https://apify.com/pricing?fpr=cbgdsf).

### 📦 What’s in the Box?

Each row is one guest review from the hotel page.

## MCP server setup

```json

            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,azzouzana/google-hotels-scraper"
        }
    }
}
```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
