They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows. 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. Actors are written with capital "A". ## 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. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## Booking.com Scraper β€” Hotels, Prices & Reviews Scrape **Booking.com hotels** at scale β€” **name, price per night, review score, review count, location, distance from center and photos** β€” by destination and dates, or from any Booking.com search URL. No login. Booking.com is protected by **AWS WAF** bot mitigation. This actor drives a **fingerprinted real browser over residential proxies**, solves the challenge automatically, and returns clean, structured hotel data with **live nightly prices**. ### What you can do with it - 🏨 **Hotel price & availability monitoring** for a destination and date range - πŸ“Š **Travel / OTA market research** β€” pricing, ratings, inventory by city - πŸ’° **Rate benchmarking** β€” compare your property against competitors on a schedule - πŸ—ΊοΈ Pairs perfectly with the **TripAdvisor Scraper** for a full travel dataset ### Input | Field | Type | Description | |-------|------|-------------| | `destination` | string | City or place, e.g. `Chicago`, `Rome, Italy`. | | `checkinDate` | string | `YYYY-MM-DD`. Defaults to ~30 days out (so prices always show). | | `checkoutDate` | string | `YYYY-MM-DD`. Defaults to check-in + 1 night. | | `adults` / `rooms` / `children` | integer | Occupancy. | | `currency` | string | Price currency, e.g. `USD`, `EUR`, `GBP`. | | `startUrls` | array | Booking.com search URLs (with your filters). Overrides destination. | | `maxItems` | integer | Maximum number of hotels to scrape. | | `proxyConfiguration` | object | **Residential proxy required** (AWS WAF). | #### Example ```json { "destination": "Chicago", "checkinDate": "2026-08-15", "checkoutDate": "2026-08-17", "adults": 2, "maxItems": 100 } ```` ### Output Each item is one hotel: ```json { "name": "Riu Plaza Chicago", "url": "https://www.booking.com/hotel/us/riu-plaza-chicago.html", "price": 278, "priceText": "US$278", "currency": "USD", "reviewScore": 9.1, "reviewCount": 7877, "location": "The Loop, Chicago", "distance": "1.3 km from downtown", "image": "https://cf.bstatic.com/xdata/images/hotel/....jpg" } ``` Export to JSON, CSV, Excel, or pull live via the Apify API. ### Notes - **Prices require dates** β€” if you don't pass `checkinDate`/`checkoutDate`, the actor defaults to ~30 nights out so a nightly price is always returned. - A **residential proxy is required** β€” Booking.com's AWS WAF blocks datacenter IPs. The actor rotates fingerprints + IPs and retries on challenge. - Paginates automatically (25 hotels per page) up to `maxItems`. # Actor input Schema ## `destination` (type: `string`): City, region or place to search, e.g. "Chicago", "Rome, Italy", "Paris". ## `checkinDate` (type: `string`): Check-in date, format YYYY-MM-DD. Leave empty for a dateless search. ## `checkoutDate` (type: `string`): Check-out date, format YYYY-MM-DD. ## `adults` (type: `integer`): Number of adults. ## `rooms` (type: `integer`): Number of rooms. ## `children` (type: `integer`): Number of children. ## `currency` (type: `string`): Currency code for prices, e.g. USD, EUR, GBP. ## `startUrls` (type: `array`): Booking.com search or hotel URLs (with your filters applied). Overrides destination. ## `maxItems` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of hotels to scrape. ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): Residential proxy is REQUIRED β€” Booking.com uses AWS WAF bot protection. ## Actor input object example ```json { "destination": "Chicago", "adults": 2, "rooms": 1, "children": 0, "currency": "USD", "startUrls": [], "maxItems": 15, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": [ "RESIDENTIAL" ] } } ``` # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup. ## JavaScript example ```javascript import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client'; // Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token // Replace the '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = { "destination": "Chicago", "checkinDate": "", "checkoutDate": "", "currency": "USD", "startUrls": [], "maxItems": 15 }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("hichemdev/booking-scraper").call(input); // Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any) console.log('Results from dataset'); console.log(`πŸ’Ύ Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`); const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems(); items.forEach((item) => { console.dir(item); }); // πŸ“š Want to learn more πŸ“–?
