## Pricing

from $2.00 / 1,000 hotels

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`).

## Google Hotels Scraper

Google Hotels prices as rows: price per night and total with tax, deals, star class, rating, reviews, amenities, coordinates, and check-in times for your dates. For travel agencies, hotel revenue managers, and travel apps that compare hotel prices, track rates over time, and build hotel lists for a destination.

- **Price:** $2.50 per 1,000 hotels. No subscription; you pay only for hotels saved. Failed inputs are free. Try it on Apify's free plan (up to 20 hotels per run).
- **Export:** JSON, CSV, Excel, Google Sheets, or the API. Works with Make, Zapier, n8n, and AI agents (MCP).

Every run tells you plainly what worked and what did not: no silent empty runs.

### What you can do with it

- **Rate shopping:** run the same destination and dates every day and compare `pricePerNight` per `propertyToken` to see how rates move.
- **Competitor pricing for hotels:** filter by `hotelClass` and area, then compare your rate with nearby hotels for the same dates and guests.
- **Deal finding:** turn on **Deals only** to keep hotels Google marks as below their usual price, with `dealDescription` saying by how much.
- **Travel content and apps:** names, ratings, amenities, photos, and coordinates for every hotel in a city, ready to put on a map.

### Pricing

Pay per result: **$2.50 per 1,000 rows**, plus **$0.001** per run start. No subscription.

| Event | When | Price |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Actor start | Once per run (per GB of memory; the default 256 MB counts as one) | $0.001 |
| Result row | Each row saved to the dataset | $0.0025 |

| Example | Rows | Cost |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 10 hotels | 10 | $0.001 + $0.025 = **$0.026** |
| 100 hotels | 100 | $0.001 + $0.25 = **$0.251** |
| 1,000 hotels | 1,000 | $0.001 + $2.50 = **$2.501** |

- Retries after a bot check or a temporary error cost you nothing. You pay only for rows saved.
- An input that fails after all retries saves one error row so you can see what failed and why. Error rows are free.
- On Apify's free plan a run stops at 20 rows. Any paid Apify plan removes this limit.
- Set **Max total charge per run** in the run options. The Actor stops cleanly at that limit and keeps every row saved so far.

### What you can count on

- **Same columns on every row.** Missing values are `null`, so spreadsheets and databases never break.
- **No silent failures.** An input that fails gets an error row with `errorCode` and a plain-language `errorMessage`. The other inputs keep running.
- **A clear run summary.** The run status says how many results were saved, how many inputs failed, and why. The same numbers are saved as the `RUN_SUMMARY` record in the run's key-value store, for automations.
- **Automatic retries.** Bot checks and temporary errors are retried with a fresh request before an input counts as failed.
- **Limits respected.** **Max results** and your spending limit stop the run cleanly.

### Use it from code, automations, and AI agents

**API** (returns the rows when the run finishes):

```bash
curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/plumblinedata~google-hotels-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=YOUR_API_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"destinations": ["Lisbon"], "maxHotelsPerDestination": 20}'
```

**Python** (`pip install apify-client`):

```python
from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("YOUR_API_TOKEN")
run = client.actor("plumblinedata/google-hotels-scraper").call(run_input={"destinations": ["Lisbon"], "maxHotelsPerDestination": 20})
for row in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(row)
```

**JavaScript** (`npm install apify-client`):

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: 'YOUR_API_TOKEN' });
const run = await client.actor('plumblinedata/google-hotels-scraper').call({"destinations": ["Lisbon"], "maxHotelsPerDestination": 20});
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
```

**No-code:** connect the Actor in Make, Zapier, n8n, or Google Sheets through Apify's integrations, or add a webhook to get notified when a run finishes.

**AI agents (MCP):** add `https://mcp.apify.com?tools=plumblinedata/google-hotels-scraper` to Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client. The agent can call this Actor as a tool with the same input as above.

### Limitations

- Google shows about 20 hotels per list and has no next page. Above 20, the Actor also reads the 5-, 4-, 3-, and 2-star lists, so a destination gives up to about 90 hotels.
- Prices are the lowest rate Google shows for your dates and guests. Rates from each booking site and room types are on the hotel's Google page (`url`), which this Actor does not open.
- Rows have coordinates but no street address.
- Currency comes from the location Google prices for. `currency` on every row says which one was used.

### FAQ

**What dates are prices for if I leave them empty?**
A 2-night stay starting 30 days from today. The run log says which dates were used, and every row has `checkIn` and `checkOut`.

**Is the price per night or for the whole stay?**
Both. `pricePerNight` and `totalPrice` are before tax; `pricePerNightWithTax` and `totalPriceWithTax` include taxes and fees.

**How do I track the same hotel over time?**
Use `propertyToken`. It is Google's ID for the property and stays the same between runs.

**Do filtered-out hotels cost anything?**
No. Hotels left out by star class, rating, price, or deal filters are not saved and not charged.

**What does an error row mean?**
It marks an input that failed after retries. `errorCode` is short (`blocked`, `empty_result`, `not_available`, `http_404`, or `invalid_...` for a bad ID or URL) and `errorMessage` says what to do. Remove error rows with a filter on `type`.

**Can I run it on a schedule?**
Yes. Create a task with your input in Apify Console, then add a schedule (for example every day at 8:00).

**Is it legal to collect this data?**
The Actor reads public pages that anyone can open without logging in. You are responsible for how you use the data, including copyright, personal data rules such as GDPR, and the site's terms. If you are not sure, ask a lawyer.

**How do I scrape hotel prices from Google Hotels?**
Put a city or area in **Destinations** (`destinations`) and set **Check-in** (`checkIn`) and **Check-out** (`checkOut`). Each hotel becomes a row with price per night, total with tax, rating, and amenities.

**How to track hotel rates for competitor hotels**
Schedule the same **Destinations** (`destinations`) and dates daily and compare `pricePerNight` per `propertyToken`. Use **Star class** (`hotelClass`) to keep the hotels in your tier.

**How to find hotel deals in a city**
Turn on **Deals only** (`dealsOnly`) and add the city to **Destinations** (`destinations`). `dealDescription` says how far below the usual price each hotel is.

# Actor input Schema

## `destinations` (type: `array`):

One city, area, or search per line, as you would type it in Google Hotels. `Lisbon` is searched as `hotels in Lisbon`; `resorts in Cancun` is kept as typed.

## `checkIn` (type: `string`):

First night of the stay, for example `2026-12-10`. Leave empty for 30 days from today.

## `checkOut` (type: `string`):

Day you leave, after check-in (up to 30 nights). Leave empty for a 2-night stay.

## `adults` (type: `integer`):

Number of adult guests. Prices change with the guest count.

## `currency` (type: `string`):

Currency for every price. Every row also reports the currency Google used.

## `maxHotelsPerDestination` (type: `integer`):

How many hotels to collect per destination. Google shows about 20 per list; above 20 the Actor also reads the 5-, 4-, 3-, and 2-star lists, so a destination gives up to about 90 hotels.

## `maxResults` (type: `integer`):

Stop after this many dataset rows across all destinations. Leave empty for no overall limit.

## `hotelClass` (type: `array`):

Only keep hotels with these star classes. Leave empty for all hotels, including unrated stays and apartments.

## `minRating` (type: `string`):

Only keep hotels with at least this guest rating (out of 5). Hotels with no rating yet are left out when this is set.

## `maxPricePerNight` (type: `integer`):

Only keep hotels at or below this nightly price (before tax), in the chosen currency. Example: `150`.

## `dealsOnly` (type: `boolean`):

Only keep hotels Google marks as a deal (for example "16% less than usual").

## Actor input object example
