# New York Hotels - Official Site vs OTA Prices

**Use case:** 

Check what three New York hotels charge on their official website and on every OTA listed in Google Hotels (Booking.com, Expedia, Agoda and more). You get one row per hotel with each OTA's price and the parity gap against the official rate. Change the hotels or dates to monitor your own properties.

## About this Actor

This example demonstrates how to use [Google Hotels Scraper - Hotel Prices by OTA & Rate Parity](https://apify.com/datatrail/google-hotels-rate-parity.md) with a specific input configuration.

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

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 full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/datatrail/google-hotels-rate-parity.md

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`).
