Choice Hotels Scraper

Scrape hotel data from every Choice Hotels brand in a single Actor run: Comfort, Quality, Sleep, Cambria, Clarion, MainStay, Suburban, WoodSpring, Everhome, Econo Lodge, Rodeway, Ascend Hotel Collection, and Country Inn & Suites.

What you get per property

• Property profile - name, brand, full address, geo coordinates, phone number, description, complete amenity list, photo gallery, and check-in / check-out times
• Live room rates - every available room type with bed type, max occupancy, nightly rate, full-stay total, taxes and fees, currency, cancellation policy, and refundability
• Guest reviews - individual review bodies with ratings, dates, trip type, and per-category sub-ratings (cleanliness, staff service, value, safety, amenities, property condition), plus any management responses
• Aggregate guest rating - average score and total review count, sourced directly from the hotel's listing

How it works

Provide one of:

• A destination like "San Diego, CA" or "Times Square, New York"
• Coordinates (latitude + longitude) with a search radius in miles
• A list of property URLs to scrape directly, skipping search

Set your stay dates and occupancy. The Actor returns one dataset row per property.

Input fields

Field	Type	Default	Notes
destination	string	-	City or place name. One of destination, lat + long, or startUrls is required.
latitude, longitude	string	-	Decimal degrees. Use with a search radius.
radiusMiles	integer	25	Search radius around the coordinates.
startUrls	array	-	Choice property URLs to scrape directly, skipping search.
checkIn, checkOut	date (YYYY-MM-DD)	-	Required for search and for fetching room rates.
adults, children, rooms	integer	2 / 0 / 1	Occupancy used for rate availability.
currency	string	USD	Currency for returned rates.

Output

One row per property, with nested arrays for offers and reviews. The dataset has four pre-built views in the Apify Console for quick browsing: Property Overview, Room Rates, Guest Reviews, and Amenities & Policies. Export the whole dataset or select All fields to see everything.

Expected nulls

• offers[].availabilityCount - Choice does not expose remaining inventory per rate
• reviews[].author - some reviewers post anonymously
• reviews[].managementResponse - only present when the property has replied
• reviews[].title - optional field, varies per review

Choice classifies properties by brand tier, not by stars, so there is no separate star rating field. Use brand for the tier classification.

Pricing

Pay-per-event:

• Property details - charged once per property successfully retrieved
• Room rates - charged once per property when rates are fetched
• Reviews - charged once per individual review returned

Cap maxReviewsPerProperty to control review spend per run.

Limitations

• Geography: US properties only
• Rate plans: Public, best-available rates only. Member, AAA, senior, and government rates require a logged-in Choice Privileges session and are out of scope.
• Stay length: Use normal stay lengths (1 to 30 nights). Multi-month stays are rejected by Choice's booking engine and will return empty room rates.

Use cases

• Travel intelligence: track Choice property rates over time across markets
• Market research: survey amenity coverage, brand distribution, and guest sentiment in a region
• Hospitality benchmarking: compare guest ratings and price positioning across Choice brands and competing chains
• Lead enrichment: pull contact details and property profiles for sales outreach
