Booking.com Hotel Scraper

Booking.com Hotel Scraper

Scrape Booking.com hotel listings from any destination, search URL, or property type, up to a million per run. Every property comes with its price, review score, star rating, and full details. No login or API key. Export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML.

Booking.com's official API is closed to most developers and requires a partnership agreement. This reads the public hotel search pages directly, filtered by star rating, review score, price, and property type, and returns each match in one fixed schema. It works for any destination, from New York to Paris to Tokyo, and handles the site's anti-bot protection with residential proxies.

Who uses it	What they scrape Booking.com for
Market researchers	Which hotels in a city are trending and at what price point
Travel agencies	Build a live inventory of available properties for their clients
Revenue managers	Monitor competitor pricing and review scores in their market
Data analysts	Collect structured hotel data for dashboards and reports
Affiliate marketers	Find top-rated hotels to feature in travel content

What it does

This Actor collects Booking.com hotel listings by destination, search URL, or property type, and returns each one as a flat row with price, review score, star rating, and other details.

• 🏨 Destination search: type a city, region, or property name and the Actor resolves it to a Booking.com destination ID automatically.
• 🔗 Direct URL input: paste any Booking.com search results URL to scrape exactly what you see in your browser.
• 📅 Date and guest controls: set check-in, check-out, adults, children, and rooms to get real-time availability and pricing.
• 🌍 Language and currency: request results in any supported language and currency code, like en-us and USD.
• ⭐ Quality filters: keep only properties above a minimum star rating or review score.
• 💰 Price cap: exclude properties above a maximum nightly rate.
• 🏠 Property type filter: narrow to hotels, apartments, hostels, villas, and more.
• 🛡️ Residential proxies built in: the Actor uses Apify's residential proxy pool to avoid Booking.com's bot detection.

Results export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML, or straight from the API.

Configure the run

Drive the Actor from a destination, a direct search URL, or both, and filters run as each property is read so only matches reach your dataset. The Input tab lists every parameter.

Troubleshooting

Why am I getting no results?

Check your filters. If minStarRating, minReviewScore, or maxPricePerNight is set too restrictively, no properties may match. Also verify that your destination is spelled correctly and that dates are in the future.

Why am I getting blocked or seeing CAPTCHAs?

Ensure residential proxies are enabled in the Proxy Configuration. The default setting uses Apify's residential pool, which is required for Booking.com. If you changed it, switch back to RESIDENTIAL.

Why are prices different from what I see on the website?

Prices can vary by user location, cookies, and time of day. Make sure your Currency and Language settings match what you see in your browser, and run the Actor at the same time you check manually.

Why does the run stop before reaching maxItems?

Booking.com may limit the number of pages it shows for a search. If you need more properties, try narrowing your destination or using multiple search URLs with different filters.

Why is my destination not resolving?

Use a more specific name, like 'New York City' instead of 'New York', or paste a direct Booking.com search URL into the startUrl field to bypass destination lookup.

FAQ

Question	Answer
Do I need a Booking.com API key?	No. This Actor reads the public Booking.com search pages directly. You only need an Apify account and enough credits for the run.
Can I scrape a specific hotel by name?	Yes. Enter the hotel name in the Destination field, like 'Marriott Times Square', and the Actor will resolve it to the correct property and return its listing.
How do I get prices for specific dates?	Set the Check-in Date and Check-out Date fields in YYYY-MM-DD format. The Actor will fetch prices and availability for those exact dates.
Does it work for any country or language?	Yes. Use the Language field to request results in a specific language code, like 'de' for German or 'fr' for French, and the Currency field for local prices.
What is the maximum number of properties I can scrape?	You can set maxItems up to 1,000,000. The Actor will paginate through search results until it reaches that number or there are no more matches.
Why do I need residential proxies?	Booking.com uses AWS WAF and other bot protection. Residential proxies make your requests look like they come from real users, reducing blocks and CAPTCHAs.
Can I filter by review score?	Yes. Set minReviewScore to a value like 8.0 to keep only properties rated 'Very Good' or higher.
Can I filter by property type?	Yes. Choose from Hotels, Apartments, Hostels, Bed and Breakfasts, Guest Houses, Holiday Homes, Resorts, Villas, Motels, Campsites, and Boats.
What output formats are supported?	The Actor returns data in a structured dataset that you can export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML from the Apify platform.
How often should I run this Actor?	It depends on your use case. For pricing monitoring, daily runs are common. For a one-time research project, a single run may be enough. You can schedule runs in Apify.
