## What's an Apify Actor?
Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
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.
Actors are written with capital "A".
## 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.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.
In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):
```bash
npm install apify-client
```
In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):
```bash
pip install apify-client
```
In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):
````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash
In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).
If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).
For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.
For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt).
# README
### What does Google Hotels Scraper do?
Scrape [Google Hotels](https://www.google.com/travel/hotels) — hotel search with prices, ratings, amenities, plus full property detail (rating breakdown, check-in/out policies, thumbnails).
### Why use Google Hotels Scraper?
- **Search + Detail in one actor.** Two modes: listing search, and deep property detail by `property_token`.
- **Dynamic pricing.** Prices are for the specific check-in / check-out window you pass.
- **Currency + country targeting.** `gl: uk` returns GBP, UK-first rankings.
- **Sponsored ads + organic bundled.** `ad` records tagged separately from organic properties.
- **Cheap detail fetches.** $0.008 per Get Hotel Details — deep enrichment on demand.
### What data can Google Hotels Scraper extract?
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| record_type | string | `property` / `ad` / `brands` / `property_detail` |
| name | string | Hotel name |
| rating | number | Star rating |
| reviews | number | Review count |
| price | string | Per-night price string |
| check_in / check_out | string | Query window |
| link | string | Google Hotels property URL |
| thumbnail | string | Primary image |
| amenities | array | Amenity list |
| property_token | string | Detail-fetch token |
### How to scrape Google Hotels
1. Click **Try for free**.
2. Pick `mode`: Search Hotels or Get Hotel Details.
3. For Search: set `q` (destination or hotel name), `check_in`, `check_out`, `adults`.
4. For Details: set `property_token` (from a previous Search run), `check_in`, `check_out`.
5. Optional: `currency`, `gl`.
6. Click **Start** — hotels stream into the dataset.
### How much will it cost?
**$8 per 1,000 searches · $0.008 per Get Hotel Details.** Search = one call per query; Detail = one call per property.
#### Competitor benchmark
| Actor | Author | Price | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| voyager/booking-scraper | voyager | ~$10 / 1k hotels | Booking.com-focused |
| compass/crawler-google-places | Compass | ~$9 / 1k places | Places actor with hotels subset |
| apify/google-search-scraper | Apify | ~$3.50 / 1k pages | SERP actor, shallow hotel info |
| **scrape-badger/google-hotels-scraper** | **ScrapeBadger** | **$8 / 1k searches** | **20% below closest hotel-focused competitor** |
### Input
Configure the run in the **Input** tab above, or pass a JSON object matching the fields below when calling the Actor via the Apify API.
| Field | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| mode | ✅ | `Search Hotels` or `Get Hotel Details`. |
| check_in / check_out | ✅ | `YYYY-MM-DD`. check_out > check_in. |
| q | Search only | Destination or hotel name. |
| property_token | Details only | From a previous Search. |
| adults | — | 1-8, default 2. |
| currency | — | ISO currency (default `USD`). |
| gl | — | Country (default `us`). |
### Output
Every successful run streams records into the run's dataset. Download as JSON, CSV, XML, Excel, or HTML from the **Dataset** tab; consume programmatically via the Apify API or webhooks.
Example record:
```json
{
"record_type": "property",
"name": "The Ritz-Carlton, New York",
"rating": 4.7,
"reviews": 1845,
"price": "$895 / night",
"check_in": "2026-12-01",
"check_out": "2026-12-03",
"link": "https://www.google.com/travel/hotels/\u2026",
"thumbnail": "https://\u2026",
"amenities": [
"Spa",
"Free WiFi",
"Gym"
],
"property_token": "ChoI5pXL1PzbxuDCARoNL2cvMTFqY3h3bWhsMxAB"
}
````
### Tips / Advanced options
- **Pipe Search → Detail.** Run Search to collect `property_token`s, pipe each through Get Hotel Details for amenity-level depth.
- **Set `check_in` / `check_out` matching your customer's stay.** Prices are highly date-sensitive — stale queries return stale prices.
- **Filter ads vs. organic.** `record_type: property` for organic; `record_type: ad` for sponsored. Filter downstream.
- **Regional currency.** `currency: EUR, gl: de` for German travellers — local merchants and local prices.
### FAQ, Disclaimers, Support
#### Can I book through the actor?
No — booking is out of scope. The actor returns prices and Google Hotels URLs; customers book on the provider's site.
#### What's `property_token`?
Google's internal token for direct-lookup of a hotel's deep detail. Surfaced in Search mode output.
#### Why does `check_out` have to be after `check_in`?
Google rejects zero-night or invalid ranges with HTTP 400. The actor validates before calling.
#### Can I filter by star rating?
Not directly at the query level — post-filter on the `rating` field downstream.
#### Disclaimer
This Actor scrapes public Google data only. You're responsible for compliance with Google's Terms of Service and any applicable data-protection laws (GDPR, CCPA, etc.) in your jurisdiction. ScrapeBadger does not store the scraped results — they are delivered directly to your Apify dataset.
