# Official Hotel Website Rates Scraper (`scrapercompany/official-hotel-rates-scraper`) Actor
Get room rates straight from a hotel's own website: paste the hotel URL and the Actor finds its booking engine (Marriott, Hilton, IHG, SynXis, Cloudbeds, SiteMinder, Mews and 20+ more) and returns rooms, rate plans and member rates for your stay.

## Pricing
from $6.00 / 1,000 rates requests
This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.

## 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
## Official Hotel Website Rates Scraper
Official Hotel Website Rates Scraper prices a stay on the **hotel's own website**, the direct channel that OTAs are measured against. Paste the hotel's homepage; the Actor discovers its reservation flow, recognises the booking engine and returns every room and rate plan it sells for your dates, including member rates when the engine shows them. It covers chains (Marriott, Hilton, IHG, Accor, Choice, Wyndham) and independent-hotel engines (SynXis, Cloudbeds, SiteMinder, Mews, D-EDGE, iHotelier, RMS Cloud, Guestline, Profitroom and more). Use it to check rate parity between direct and OTA channels.
Powered by the [ScraperCompany API](https://scrapercompany.com): requests, proxies, retries and anti-bot handling run on ScraperCompany's servers, so you don't need your own proxies or API key. Start a run, get structured JSON.
### What can this scraper do?
- **Just paste the hotel URL**: booking-engine discovery and selection happen automatically.
- Supports **30+ booking engines**, including Marriott, Hilton, IHG, Accor, Choice, Wyndham, SynXis, Cloudbeds, SiteMinder, Mews, D-EDGE, iHotelier, RMS Cloud, Guestline, Profitroom, NewBook, Channex, innRoad, WebRezPro and ResNexus.
- Every **room and rate plan** with price, occupancy and availability.
- **Member / loyalty rates** reported separately when the engine shows them, never mixed with public rates.
- Any stay length, adults and rooms; request a currency.
### What data can you extract?
| Field | Description |
| --- | --- |
| `engine` | Booking engine that answered (e.g. marriott, synxis, cloudbeds) |
| `cheapest_rate / cheapest_member_rate` | Lowest public rate and lowest member rate |
| `rooms[].name / code / max_occupancy` | Room type |
| `rooms[].rates` | Rate plans with price, cancellation and meal terms |
| `currency / sold_out` | Returned currency and sold-out flag |
| `booking_url / source_url` | Booking-engine link that was priced and the page you gave |
| `detected_by / discovery_pages` | How the engine was found |
Every dataset item also carries `input` (the exact request that was sent), `request_id` (quote it to support), `billed` and `scraped_at`.
### How to use Official Hotel Website Rates Scraper
1. Open Official Hotel Website Rates Scraper in Apify Console and go to the **Input** tab.
2. Paste one or more **hotel website URLs** (homepage or property page, e.g. `https://www.marriott.com/en-us/hotels/yyzrz-the-ritz-carlton-toronto/overview/`) or direct booking-engine links (the default input uses a SiteMinder booking page), and pick your dates.
3. Adjust the options if needed. Dates accept an exact date (`2026-12-01`) or a relative one (`30 days` from today), so saved tasks and schedules never go stale.
4. Click **Start** and wait for the run to finish.
5. Download the results from the **Output** tab as JSON, CSV, Excel or HTML, or fetch them with the Apify API.
### Input example
This is the default input; running the Actor without changes uses it.

A request that fails is saved with an `error` message instead (turn off **Include failed requests** to skip those). Failed requests are never charged.
### How much does it cost?
This Actor uses **pay-per-event** pricing: you pay for successful API requests, not for compute time.
| Event | Charged when | Price | Per 1,000 |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `rates-request` | One hotel website priced for one stay through the hotel's own booking engine. | $0.006 | $6.00 |
For example, 1,000 requests in the default mode cost **$6.00**.
- Failed requests (errors, invalid input, blocked upstream after retries) are **free**.
- Requests where the source returns nothing at all (no results, nothing priced) are saved but **not charged**.
- Set **Maximum cost per run** when you start a run and the Actor stops cleanly before going over it.
### FAQ
#### Do I need proxies or a ScraperCompany API key?
No. Proxy rotation, retries and anti-bot handling run on the ScraperCompany side, and the Actor is already connected to the API. You only pay the per-event prices above.
#### What if the hotel uses an engine you do not support?
The request fails with a clear message naming what was found, and it is not charged.
#### Do I need to know the booking engine?
No. Give the hotel's normal website; the Actor finds the booking link and picks the right extractor.
#### Is it legal to scrape this data?
The Actor collects publicly available information that anyone can see without logging in. You are responsible for how you use the results: respect the source site's terms, copyright and privacy law (such as GDPR) and do not collect personal data without a lawful basis. If in doubt, ask a lawyer.
#### What happens when a request is blocked or rate-limited?
Rate limits (HTTP 429) and temporary errors (5xx) are retried automatically with exponential backoff, respecting `Retry-After`. If a request still fails it is saved with the error message and not charged, and the rest of the batch keeps going. A run only fails when every request failed.
#### Why did a request return an error?
Read the `error` field: validation problems (for example a malformed date or an unknown id) are reported exactly as the API sees them. Fix the input and run again; failed requests cost nothing.
#### How many requests can I run at once?
Any number per run. The Actor sends up to 3 requests in parallel by default (change it under **Run options**); larger batches simply take longer.
### Use it from your code
Call the Actor from any language through the [Apify API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2). With the JavaScript client (`npm install apify-client`):
```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';
const client = new ApifyClient({ token: process.env.APIFY_TOKEN });
const run = await client.actor('scrapercompany/official-hotel-rates-scraper').call({
"hotelUrls": [
"https://app-apac.thebookingbutton.com/properties/ParksideHotelandApartmentsdirect"
],
"check_in": "30 days"
});
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(items);
```
With Python (`pip install apify-client`):
```python
import os
from apify_client import ApifyClient
client = ApifyClient(os.environ["APIFY_TOKEN"])
run = client.actor("scrapercompany/official-hotel-rates-scraper").call(run_input={
"hotelUrls": ["https://app-apac.thebookingbutton.com/properties/ParksideHotelandApartmentsdirect"],
"check_in": "30 days",
})
for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
print(item)
```
You can also schedule runs, chain them with webhooks, or connect them to Make, Zapier, n8n, Google Sheets and other integrations from the **Integrations** tab.

# Actor input Schema
## `hotelUrls` (type: `array`):
The hotel's own homepage or property page (or a direct booking-engine link), one request each. The Actor finds the booking engine itself; you do not need to know which one the hotel uses.
## `check_in` (type: `string`):
Exact (2026-12-01) or relative (30 days from today).
## `nights` (type: `integer`):
Length of stay (1-30).
## `adults` (type: `integer`):
Adults per room (1-8).
## `rooms` (type: `integer`):
Rooms requested (1-8).
## `currency` (type: `string`):
Currency to request. Booking engines that only quote their own currency return it; the response says which currency was returned.
## `customRequests` (type: `array`):
Optional list of JSON objects, one request each, using the API field names shown above. Each object is merged over the options above, so you only need to give what differs. Example: {"url":"https://www.example-hotel.com/","check_in":"2026-12-20","nights":3,"currency":"EUR"}
## `includeErrors` (type: `boolean`):
When on, a request that fails (for example an unknown property id) is saved as a dataset item with an error message so you can see what went wrong. Failed requests are never charged.
## `maxConcurrency` (type: `integer`):
How many API requests run at the same time.
## `maxRetries` (type: `integer`):
Retries for rate limits (HTTP 429), temporary server errors (5xx) and network errors, with exponential backoff. Validation errors are never retried.
