Google Travel Hotels Scraper: Hotel Rates & Prices by Date

This Google Hotels scraper gets hotel prices from Google Hotels (google.com/travel/hotels) for any city, area or specific hotel and your exact dates, guests and currency: lowest price per night and for the whole stay (before and after taxes), every provider offer Google lists (Booking.com, Expedia, Hotels.com, the hotel's own site...), deal flags ("24% less than usual"), star class, guest rating, review count and breakdown, amenities, coordinates and Google IDs.

Built for reliability: plain HTTP requests to Google's server-rendered data (no browser), residential proxy by default, automatic new-IP retry when Google blocks, and a check that every price is for the dates you asked for. If Google priced other dates, the row is dropped and the reason is written to NOTES. You never get silently wrong prices.

Google Hotels scraper features

• Destination search: "Lisbon", "Paris 11th arrondissement", "hotels near Times Square". Up to 20 properties per destination and date.
• Hotel-name lookup: "Avenida Palace Lisbon" returns that hotel with all provider offers for your dates.
• Provider offers for the top N hotels of a destination search (optional): provider, nightly and total price with and without taxes, free cancellation, official-site flag, room-level rates where Google shows them, and the booking link.
• Price calendar mode: the same searches for every check-in date in a range (daily or every N days, up to 31 dates). Good for "cheapest night to go" charts.
• Comparable output: numbers as numbers, ISO dates, currency code on every row, and the requested vs actual stay on every row.
• Any currency (USD, EUR, GBP, JPY...), language (hl) and country (gl). Adults 1 to 10.

How to track Google Hotels prices by date

Set destinations or hotelNames, your checkIn and checkOut dates, adults and currency. For a price calendar add dateRangeEnd and dateStepDays, and schedule the run with Apify Schedules to build a price history.

Google Hotels API and hotel price API

Call this Actor from the Apify API, Python, JavaScript, Make, Zapier or n8n and get hotel prices by date as JSON, or export them to CSV, Excel or Google Sheets. There's no partner contract and no API key.

Use it in Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor

Connect Apify's MCP server (mcp.apify.com) and your AI assistant can check hotel prices itself. For example: "what do 4-star hotels in Lisbon cost for 2 adults from Dec 12 to 15, and which site is cheapest?" Give it a destination or hotel name. The dates default to 30 days from today.

Use cases

• Revenue management: track your hotel's and competitors' rates by date and channel (OTA vs direct).
• Price calendars: find the cheapest dates for a trip or an event.
• Travel content and comparison sites: clean hotel lists with ratings, coordinates and live prices.
• Parity monitoring: is the official site cheaper than Booking.com and Expedia?

Limits (honest)

• Up to 20 properties per destination and date (Google's first results page). For more, split a city into areas ("Lisbon Alfama", "Lisbon Baixa") or run several destinations.
• One room. Adults only (children ages are not supported yet). The adult count is sent to Google with every search and checked on hotel pages (offers). Results-list cards do not echo it, so it cannot be checked there.
• Amenities are filled for destination results. Hotel-name lookups return details, rating and offers, but amenities are empty.
• Vacation rentals that Google mixes into some results are skipped unless you turn on includeVacationRentals.
• Prices are what Google shows to a visitor from the chosen country (gl) and proxy country. They can differ from the provider's own site at booking time.
• Room-level rates and free-cancellation dates appear only where Google shows them (usually the featured providers).
• Google can change its page format. The actor checks dates and data on every page and reports problems in NOTES rather than returning wrong data.
• When Google blocks an IP, the actor retries with up to 4 fresh residential IPs, then reports the search as failed in NOTES. It never solves CAPTCHAs.

How much does it cost

Pay per event: $0.004 per destination search page (search, one per destination and date), $0.00085 per hotel row (hotel), and $0.006 per hotel with full provider offers (hotel-offers, one extra Google page per hotel). A hotel-name lookup is charged as hotel + hotel-offers. Example: 20 hotels for one city and date cost about $0.02.

FAQ

Is there a Google Hotels API?

Google's hotel APIs (Hotel Center and the Travel Partner API) are for hotels and booking sites that send their own prices to Google. They don't let you read prices. This Actor reads the public Google Hotels results instead, so it works as a Google Hotels API for any city or hotel.

Is there a free hotel price API?

Apify's free plan includes $5 of platform credit every month. At about $0.02 for 20 hotels for one city and date, that covers a few hundred searches.

How do I get Google Hotels prices for specific dates?

Set checkIn, checkOut, adults and currency, and add a city or a hotel name. Every row carries the requested and actual stay dates, and rows priced for other dates are dropped.

Are Google Hotels prices per night or for the whole stay?

Both. Each row has pricePerNight and priceTotal before taxes, and pricePerNightWithTaxes and priceTotalWithTaxes including taxes and fees, as Google shows them.

Can I compare Booking.com, Expedia and the hotel's own site?

Yes. Turn on provider offers (offersForTopHotels) or look up a hotel by name. You get each provider's price, a free-cancellation flag where Google shows it, and an official-site flag.

Can I track hotel prices over time or build a price calendar?

Yes. Price calendar mode runs the same search for every check-in date in a range (up to 31 dates). Schedule it to build a price history.

Why can Google Hotels prices differ from the booking site?

Prices are what Google shows a visitor from the chosen country and proxy location. They can differ from the provider's own site at booking time.

Is it legal to scrape Google Hotels?

The data is public and needs no login. Follow Google's terms and the laws that apply to you.
