🏨 Google Hotels Scraper: Prices, Deals & Ratings for Any Dates

Hotel prices from Google Hotels for any city and any dates: nightly and total price including taxes, deal badges, how today's price compares to usual, star class, rating, reviews, amenities and photos. Google Hotels compares Booking.com, Expedia, Hotels.com, the hotels' own sites and more; this Actor turns that comparison into clean data, one row per hotel.

• ✅ Prices for your exact stay, with the check-in and check-out dates Google applied reported on every row
• ✅ Nightly and total price with taxes and fees, plus the number of nights
• ✅ Deal signals: DEAL, GREAT DEAL, and 29% less than usual
• ✅ Quality signals: star class, rating, review count and the 5-to-1-star split
• ✅ Amenities and up to six photos per hotel
• ✅ Many cities and search variations in one run, with repeats removed and not charged

What does Google Hotels Scraper do?

You give it locations ("Austin, TX", "Downtown Chicago", "near JFK airport"), and optionally dates, guests and search variations ("4 star hotels", "hotels with pool"). It then:

1. Runs each variation in each location on Google Hotels, for your dates and number of adults.
2. Checks which dates Google actually applied and records them on every result.
3. Reads each hotel card: price per night, total price, deal badges, star class, rating, reviews, amenities and photos.
4. Drops hotels already saved for the same place in the same run.

Use cases

• 🏨 Hotel revenue management. Watch competitors' prices for the same dates every day.
• ✈️ Travel deals and newsletters. Find hotels priced well below their usual rate for a weekend or event.
• 📈 Event and seasonality research. Compare prices across dates: a festival weekend against the week after.
• 🧭 Travel apps and research. Price levels, ratings and amenities by city.
• 🤖 AI agents. "Find 4-star hotels in Denver under $150 a night for December 4 to 6."

How to get many results

Google Hotels shows about 18 hotels per search. Every entry in What to search for runs once in every location:

Variations	Locations	Searches run	Unique hotels, at most
1 (hotels)	1	1	about 18
3	2	6	about 108
5	5	25	about 450

Variations in the same place return some of the same hotels, which are saved once. In testing, 2 variations in 2 cities gave 64 unique hotels out of 72.

Good variations: hotels, 4 star hotels, 5 star hotels, cheap hotels, hotels with pool, pet friendly hotels, boutique hotels. Neighbourhoods work as locations too: Downtown Austin, Austin airport.

FAQ

Can I use it through the API?

Yes. For a quick lookup, the synchronous endpoint returns the hotels in one request:

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/optimistical_lectern~google-hotels-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"locations": ["Austin, TX"], "checkIn": "2026-12-04", "checkOut": "2026-12-06"}'

JavaScript:

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: 'YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN' });
const run = await client.actor('optimistical_lectern/google-hotels-scraper').call({ locations: ['Austin, TX'], checkIn: '2026-12-04', checkOut: '2026-12-06' });
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();

Python:

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN")
run = client.actor("optimistical_lectern/google-hotels-scraper").call(run_input={"locations": ["Austin, TX"], "checkIn": "2026-12-04", "checkOut": "2026-12-06"})
items = client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).list_items().items

Can AI agents use it?

Yes. It runs with limited permissions, so it needs no approval step. Add it to Claude, Cursor or any other MCP client through Apify's MCP server at mcp.apify.com, using the Actor name optimistical_lectern/google-hotels-scraper.

How do I track prices every day?

Create a schedule in Apify Console with fixed dates, and send the results to Google Sheets, a database or a webhook. hotelId stays the same across runs, so each day's price lines up with the last.

Which currency are prices in?

The currency Google uses for the Country you choose: US for dollars, GB for pounds, DE or FR for euros, and so on.

Are the prices exact?

They are Google's lowest advertised price for the stay at the moment of the run. Hotel prices change by the minute, and the final price depends on the room and the site you book through. pricesUrl opens Google's full comparison.

Why do some results have no star class?

Vacation rentals sometimes appear among hotels. They have a rating but no official star class.

Is it legal to scrape Google Hotels?

The tool collects prices and hotel details that Google shows to any visitor. Using automated tools on Google may go against Google's terms of service, and whether that matters depends on how and where you use the data. If you are unsure, ask a lawyer.

Something looks wrong?

Open an issue on the Issues tab with the location and dates. Every report is read.
