Google Hotels Scraper — Prices, OTA Rates & Reviews

Disclaimer: Unofficial tool for publicly visible Google Hotels / Google Travel search results. Google and Google Hotels are trademarks of Google LLC. Not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by Google. For informational, research, rate-shopping, and market-analysis use only. Respect applicable terms of use and law.

Google Hotels scraper for public hotel search — a practical Google Hotels API alternative. Give it a city, neighborhood, or hotel query plus check-in / check-out dates. Export lead nightly prices, star class, guest ratings, review counts, GPS, amenities, photos, and optional OTA rate ladders (the Booking / Expedia / Hotels.com-style sources Google already shows) as a JSON dataset. Call from Python, Node.js, cURL, or Apify MCP / AI assistants.

Built for hotel revenue managers, OTA / metasearch analysts, travel-tech builders, and ADR researchers. No Google account and no official Hotel Center access required.

Google Hotels (OTA rate shop)	Airbnb occupancy (STR calendars)	Idealista (long-term rentals)
Google Hotels Scraper ◄── you are here	Airbnb Occupancy Scraper	Idealista Scraper

When to use this Actor

• You need a Google Hotels scraper / Google Travel hotel scraper that returns structured JSON
• You want live prices for a destination and stay dates, not a static hotel directory
• You compare OTA prices Google already aggregates, without Booking.com or Expedia partner APIs
• You want to scrape Google Hotels with Python, Node.js, or MCP and export a dataset

When not to use this Actor

• Official Google Hotel Ads / Travel Partner APIs — those are for approved chains and OTAs submitting their own rate feeds
• Guaranteed last-room inventory — Google shows public comparison prices; checkout on the OTA can still differ
• Full city dumps of thousands of hotels in one run — cap with maxItems and split queries (neighborhood, star class)
• Short-term rental occupancy calendars — use Airbnb Occupancy Scraper

Key Features

• Destination search — hotels in Paris, Tokyo 4-star hotels, or a city in location
• Stay dates — check-in / check-out encoded the same way Google Travel's own URLs encode them
• Lead price + rating — nightly rate, currency, deal badge, overall rating, review count, star class
• GPS, photos, amenities, nearby places from the public search card
• Optional OTA ladder — includeDetails fetches the property page for per-vendor prices and room names when Google exposes them
• Exact property tokens — paste a Google Hotels entity token or entity URL
• Vacation rentals toggle — search holiday rentals on the same Google Hotels index
• Price monitor — scheduled runs attach monitor.priceChange vs the previous run
• HTTP path — Chrome TLS impersonation, no Playwright
• MCP / AI ready — call from assistants via Apify MCP

FAQ

Does Google Hotels have a public API?
No self-serve API returns the public comparison results visitors see. Hotel Ads / Travel Partner APIs are for approved partners submitting their own feeds. This Actor is a Google Hotels API alternative that reads the public Travel search page.

Do I need a Google login or API key?
No. You can scrape Google Hotels from Python, Node.js, cURL, or MCP with an Apify token only.

How many hotels per search?
The first results page is typically about 20 organic properties. Raise maxItems only after you add more queries (neighborhoods, star class). Pagination beyond the first page is not guaranteed.

Why are prices in USD when I asked for EUR?
Displayed currency follows Google's market: set both currency and country (gl) to the same region (for example EUR + fr), and use a matching proxy country when you enable Apify Proxy.

Why enable a residential proxy?
Direct datacenter IPs often work. If you hit a consent interstitial or zero cards, switch the proxy to Apify RESIDENTIAL.

Are OTA prices the final checkout price?
They are the public rates Google shows for your dates. The booking site can still change taxes, packages, or availability at checkout.

Can I monitor the same hotels over time?
Yes. Turn on monitorMode and schedule the Actor. Each row gets a monitor object with the previous lead price and the delta.
