## Pricing

from $2.40 / 1,000 hotel results

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

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 examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

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`).

# README

## Google Hotels Scraper - Prices, Ratings & Deals

Extract hotel search results from **Google Hotels** (google.com/travel) for any city, neighborhood or landmark and **any dates**. Get the lowest nightly price, Google's "deal" signal (e.g. *GREAT DEAL 38% less than usual*), star class, rating, review count and breakdown, coordinates, check-in/out times, official website and a direct Google Hotels link.

Built for reliability: automatic retries with fresh proxy sessions, no browser needed, so runs are fast and cheap.

### What can you do with it?

- **Hotel price monitoring**: track rates for your property and competitors across dates (revenue management, rate parity).
- **Travel deal sites & newsletters**: find hotels Google flags as below their usual price.
- **Market research**: compare price levels, ratings and star mix between cities or neighborhoods.
- **Lead generation**: build lists of hotels with websites and locations.
- **AI agents**: give your agent live hotel prices for a destination and date range.

### Input

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| `queries` | Searches as you'd type them in Google Hotels: `hotels in Tokyo`, `hotels near Times Square`, `Paris 5 star hotels` |
| `checkIn` / `checkOut` | Stay dates (YYYY-MM-DD). Default: tomorrow, 1 night |
| `currency` | USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, KRW, ... |
| `language`, `country` | Google `hl` / `gl` settings |
| `maxResultsPerQuery` | Up to 20 hotels per query (use several queries for more coverage, e.g. by neighborhood) |

```json
{"queries": ["hotels in Tokyo", "hotels in Paris"], "checkIn": "2026-12-04", "checkOut": "2026-12-06", "currency": "USD"}
```

# 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 '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "queries": [
        "hotels in Tokyo"
    ]
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("perceptual_lacrosse/google-hotels-scraper").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 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);
});

# Prepare the Actor input
run_input = { "queries": ["hotels in Tokyo"] }

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("perceptual_lacrosse/google-hotels-scraper").call(run_input=run_input)

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "queries": [
    "hotels in Tokyo"
  ]
}' |
apify call perceptual_lacrosse/google-hotels-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,perceptual_lacrosse/google-hotels-scraper"
        }
    }
}
```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
