## 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

Scrape hotel prices from Google Hotels for any city and any dates. No API key, no login, no browser. You get the price per night and the total for the stay, taxes and fees, star class, guest rating and review counts, amenities, photos and GPS coordinates. You can also get the price on every booking site (Booking.com, Agoda, Expedia, Hotels.com, Trip.com, the hotel's own website and more), with the free-cancellation terms.

**$1.99 per 1,000 hotels.** Prices from every booking site add $0.99 per 1,000 hotels.

***

### Why this one

**Your dates never go stale.** Google Hotels ignores the `checkin`/`checkout` URL parameters and quietly shows prices for other dates. This Actor sends the dates the way the Google Hotels page does, then checks them against the dates Google actually used. For scheduled runs, set **Check-in in N days**: a daily schedule with `14` always prices the stay two weeks ahead. If you pass a check-in date that is already in the past, the Actor moves it to today (same number of nights) and says so in `date_note`. It does not fail the run.

**No results is not an error.** A search with nothing to return finishes successfully with 0 items, and you pay nothing.

**It keeps going when Google pushes back.** Every page and every retry uses a fresh IP. If one location fails, the others still finish.

**You only pay for what you keep.** The minimum rating, minimum stars and maximum price filters run before anything is charged.

***

### Quick start

```json
{
  "locations": ["Tokyo", "Paris"],
  "checkInDate": "2026-11-20",
  "checkOutDate": "2026-11-23",
  "adults": 2,
  "currency": "USD",
  "maxResultsPerLocation": 100
}
```

Daily price monitoring (put this on a Schedule):

```json
{
  "locations": ["hotels near Times Square"],
  "checkInDaysFromToday": 30,
  "nights": 2,
  "includeVendorPrices": true,
  "minHotelClass": 4
}
```

A location can be a city, a neighborhood, a landmark or a full query such as `hotels near Times Square`. A plain place name is searched as `hotels in <place>`.

### Output

One item per hotel:

| Field | Notes |
|---|---|
| `name`, `hotel_id` | `hotel_id` is Google's ID for the property |
| `hotel_class`, `hotel_class_text` | Stars, e.g. `4` / `4-star hotel`. `null` for vacation rentals and hostels without a class |
| `rating`, `review_count` | Guest rating out of 5 |
| `rating_distribution` | Number of 5, 4, 3, 2 and 1 star reviews |
| `price_per_night`, `price_per_night_text` | Lowest price per night with taxes and fees |
| `total_price`, `total_price_text` | For the whole stay |
| `base_price`, `taxes_and_fees` | Total split into room rate and taxes/fees, when Google shows it |
| `currency`, `check_in`, `check_out`, `nights`, `adults` | The stay these prices are for |
| `date_note` | Set when the dates were adjusted (past date) or Google used different dates |
| `amenities` | As shown on Google, e.g. `Free Wi-Fi`, `Pool`, `Parking ($)` |
| `description` | Google's one-line summary |
| `latitude`, `longitude`, `country_code` | |
| `check_in_time`, `check_out_time` | e.g. `3:00 PM` |
| `website` | The hotel's own site |
| `nearby_places` | Places Google lists near the hotel, with travel times |
| `thumbnail`, `images` | Photo URLs |
| `google_hotels_url`, `google_maps_url` | |
| `location`, `search_query`, `position` | Which search found it, and its rank there |

With **Prices from every booking site** on:

| Field | Notes |
|---|---|
| `vendor_prices` | Every offer, cheapest first: `vendor`, `official_site`, `price_per_night` (with taxes and fees), `base_price_per_night` (before taxes, when Google shows it), `total_price`, `price_text`, `free_cancellation`, `conditions` (for example `Non-refundable`, `Breakfast not incl`) |
| `cheapest_vendor`, `cheapest_vendor_total` | The best deal at a glance |

Example (shortened):

```json
{
  "name": "the b hachioji",
  "hotel_class": 3,
  "rating": 3.7,
  "review_count": 926,
  "price_per_night": 52,
  "total_price": 155.99,
  "currency": "USD",
  "check_in": "2026-10-13",
  "check_out": "2026-10-16",
  "nights": 3,
  "amenities": ["Free Wi-Fi", "Parking ($)", "Restaurant", "Kid-friendly"],
  "cheapest_vendor": "Ikyu.com",
  "vendor_prices": [
    {"vendor": "Ikyu.com", "official_site": false, "price_per_night": 52, "total_price": 156, "free_cancellation": "Free cancellation until Oct 11"},
    {"vendor": "the b hachioji", "official_site": true, "price_per_night": 58, "total_price": 173, "free_cancellation": "Free cancellation until Oct 10"}
  ]
}
```

### Input

| Field | Default | |
|---|---|---|
| `locations` | | Required. One search per line |
| `checkInDate`, `checkOutDate` | | `YYYY-MM-DD`. Leave empty to use the two fields below |
| `checkInDaysFromToday` | 14 | Used when `checkInDate` is empty |
| `nights` | 1 | Used when `checkOutDate` is empty. Up to 30 |
| `adults` | 2 | |
| `currency` | USD | Any three-letter code Google supports |
| `countryCode` | us | The traveller's country. Booking sites and prices depend on it |
| `maxResultsPerLocation` | 20 | Up to 1,000. Google returns about 16 new hotels per page |
| `includeVendorPrices` | false | One extra request per hotel |
| `minRating`, `minHotelClass`, `maxPricePerNight` | | Hotels that don't match are skipped and not charged |

### Pricing

| Event | Price |
|---|---|
| Hotel | $1.99 per 1,000 |
| Prices from every booking site | $0.99 per 1,000 hotels (only charged when offers were found) |

Example: a daily schedule tracking 50 competitor hotels with booking-site prices costs about $0.15 a day.

### Good to know

- Prices are what Google Hotels shows for the chosen currency and traveller country, including taxes and fees. Booking sites can change their prices at any time.
- `amenities` is the list Google shows on the results page. The full amenity list on a hotel's own page can be longer.
- For a query that does not match a real place, Google may still return hotels somewhere else. Check `location` and the coordinates.
- Room-level rates (every room type) are not included, only the best offer from each booking site.

Cities, neighborhoods or landmarks, e.g. Tokyo, Shinjuku, hotels near Times Square. One search per line.

## `checkInDate` (type: `string`):

YYYY-MM-DD. Leave empty to use 'Check-in in N days' instead (best for scheduled runs). A past date is moved to today automatically instead of failing.

## `checkOutDate` (type: `string`):

YYYY-MM-DD. Leave empty to use 'Nights'.

## `checkInDaysFromToday` (type: `integer`):

Used when Check-in date is empty. A daily schedule with 14 always checks the stay two weeks ahead, so the dates never go stale.

## `nights` (type: `integer`):

Length of stay when Check-out date is empty.

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

Number of adult guests per room.

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

Three-letter code: USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, TWD, AUD...

## `countryCode` (type: `string`):

Two-letter code. Google shows prices and booking sites for travellers from this country.

## `maxResultsPerLocation` (type: `integer`):

About 16 new hotels per page. Stops early when Google has nothing new.

## `includeVendorPrices` (type: `boolean`):

Adds the price on each booking site (Booking.com, Agoda, Expedia, Hotels.com, the hotel's own site...) with free-cancellation info and links. One extra page per hotel, charged separately.

## `minRating` (type: `number`):

e.g. 4.0. Hotels below are skipped and not charged.

## `minHotelClass` (type: `integer`):

e.g. 4 for 4- and 5-star hotels only. Hotels without a star class are skipped.

## `maxPricePerNight` (type: `number`):

In the chosen currency. Hotels above are skipped and not charged.

## `concurrency` (type: `integer`):

How many pages to fetch at the same time.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Every retry and page uses a new IP. Datacenter proxies work for Google Hotels; switch to RESIDENTIAL only if you see blocks.

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).
