Booking.com Scraper – Hotels, Prices & Reviews

Scrape Booking.com as structured data. Give it a destination and your dates and every property Booking lists comes back as a row: name, total price for your stay, guest score and review count, star rating, address, coordinates, property type, photo and a link — in Booking's own order. Turn reviews on and each property's reviews arrive as rows of their own: score, title, what the guest liked and disliked, their nationality and traveller type, stay dates, room, and the hotel's reply.

Built for price monitoring, market research, revenue management and hospitality lead generation — and it reaches every property Booking lists, with no thousand-result ceiling.

No API key, no login, no browser, no account of yours involved. A hundred properties arrive per request, so a typical search finishes in seconds.

$1.50 per 1,000 hotels, $1.00 per 1,000 reviews — $0.15 for a typical 100-hotel search. Apify platform usage included, nothing else to pay. A search that cannot be read is never charged.

Unofficial. Not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Booking.com.

Features

• The price for your exact stay — total for the dates, guests and rooms you searched, in the currency you chose, with a per-night average and a priceBasis on every row that says exactly what the number covers. No ambiguity about nightly versus total, or whose currency.
• Everything Booking lists — a hundred properties per request and no cap: a city's full 1,500–7,000 properties are reachable. Booking's own count of results is on every row, so you know how many there are.
• A catalogue without dates — leave the dates empty and every property in the destination is listed without prices, cheaply.
• Booking's own filters and sorts — star ratings, minimum review score, free cancellation, and any filter string copied from a Booking URL; sorted by Booking's recommendation, price, reviews or stars.
• Reviews worth having — score, title, liked and disliked text, guest nationality (name and code), traveller type, stay dates, room type, the hotel's reply and helpful votes. Joined to their hotel by hotelId.
• Stable IDs — Booking's numeric hotelId on every row, for deduplicating across runs and joining reviews to hotels.
• Paste a Booking link — a search copied from Booking keeps its destination, dates, guests, currency and filters.
• Honest rows for every outcome. A destination Booking does not know is a not_found row, a bad line a bad_input row, a read that fails a read_failed row — never a silent empty result. The run stays green.

Field	Type	Default	What it does
queries	array	—	Destinations as you would type them into Booking — a city, region, district, landmark or country — or search-results links copied from Booking.
checkIn, checkOut	string	—	YYYY-MM-DD. Both, or neither. With dates: prices and availability. Without: every property, no prices.
adults, children, rooms	integer	2, 0, 1	The booking the price is for. childrenAges (array) makes family pricing exact.
currency	string	USD	Three-letter code. Booking converts at its own rate.
maxHotels	integer	100	Properties per destination, up to 5,000. A hundred per request.
sortBy	string	recommended	Booking's sort menu.
stars, minReviewScore, freeCancellation	—	—	Booking's own filters.
filters	string	—	Any other Booking filter, as it appears after nflt= in a filtered URL (ht_id=204;mealplan=1).
includeReviews	boolean	false	Collect each property's reviews as separate rows. Charged per review.
maxReviewsPerHotel	integer	25	Reviews per property, up to 2,000. Twenty-five per request.
reviewSort	string	most_relevant	Booking's most relevant, or newest first.

What the price is

price is the total for the whole stay — every night, every guest, every room you asked for — as Booking quotes it for those exact dates, in the currency you chose. pricePerNight is that total divided by the nights, and originalPrice is the struck-through price before a discount, when Booking shows one. priceBasis spells it out on every row ("total for 2 nights, 2 adults, 1 room, as Booking quotes it") so a spreadsheet never has to guess. Without dates there is no price, and the row says so with nulls rather than a guessed number.

How many properties

A hundred arrive per request and there is no ceiling: maxHotels decides how far to read, and Booking's own count is in totalResults on every row — so a first run at the default 100 tells you a city has 1,819 properties, and a second run at 2,000 collects them all.

Field	Type	What it is

Error rows

A search that could not be read is its own row rather than a failed run:

Field	What it is
type	"error"
query	The line of input that could not be searched.
error	bad_input (the line cannot be searched — a hotel-page link, a bad date), not_found (Booking knows no such destination) or read_failed (Booking's answer could not be read after retries).
errorDescription	The reason in words.
retrievedAt	When it was tried.

Error rows are never charged. The run itself stays green either way, and its status message says how many searches could not be read — so if you run on a schedule, check for type: "error" rows rather than trusting the run status.

An empty dataset means every search was read and Booking lists nothing for it. A destination Booking does not know comes back as a not_found row, never as silence.

How to use

From Apify Console

1. Open the Actor and click Try for free / Start.
2. Put one destination per line into Destinations, or paste a Booking search link.
3. Set Check-in and Check-out for prices, or leave them empty to list every property without prices.
4. Set Hotels per destination — 100 is one request; totalResults on the rows tells you how many there are.
5. Turn on Also collect each hotel's reviews if you want them, and cap Reviews per hotel.
6. Click Start, then open the Dataset tab — the Hotels view shows a photo of each, the Reviews view the reviews — and export as JSON, CSV or Excel.

From the API

curl -s "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/simple.actor~booking-hotels/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=$APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"queries": ["Lisbon"], "checkIn": "2026-10-10", "checkOut": "2026-10-12", "maxHotels": 200}'

Price monitoring with the JavaScript client:

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: process.env.APIFY_TOKEN });
const run = await client.actor('simple.actor/booking-hotels').call({
    queries: ['Lisbon'],
    checkIn: '2026-10-10',
    checkOut: '2026-10-12',
    currency: 'EUR',
    stars: [4, 5],
    maxHotels: 500,
});
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
// Track price by hotelId over runs; join reviews to hotels on the same key.

Use cases

• Price monitoring — the same destination and dates every day, keyed by hotelId, to see how rates move.
• Market research — every property in a city with score, stars, type and price band, and how many there are.
• Revenue management — where a property sits against its competitors for the same dates and guests.
• Hospitality lead generation — every property of a type in an area, with its Booking page and coordinates.
• Review analysis — thousands of reviews with nationality, traveller type and the hotel's reply, for sentiment or service benchmarking.

Pricing

Simple pay-per-result pricing — no subscription and no start fee.

Event	Price
Hotel returned	$0.0015
Review returned	$0.0010

What that comes to:

• A search at the default depth, 100 hotels: $0.15.
• Every property in a big city, around 1,800: about $2.70.
• 100 hotels with 25 reviews each: $2.65 — $0.15 for the hotels, $2.50 for the 2,500 reviews.
• 1,000 reviews, however many hotels they come from: $1.00.

Error rows are never charged, and a search Booking has nothing for costs nothing.

Limits worth knowing

• Hotel-page details are not included — amenities, the named rooms with their individual prices, the description and the photo gallery live on pages that need a browser. Each row's url opens them.
• Prices are Booking's quote for one booking as you defined it. Booking shows different prices for different guest counts and dates; change the input, not the arithmetic.
• Reviews cost per review. A property with a thousand reviews is a thousand rows; maxReviewsPerHotel caps it.
• A destination is resolved to Booking's best match. Every row carries the resolved destination, so an ambiguous name ("Paris") is visible as what Booking took it to be.

FAQ

Is scraping Booking.com legal? Results come from Booking.com and are subject to Booking's terms — check them, and your own use, before relying on the data. This Actor reads the same listing data Booking shows anyone searching, without logging in.

Do I need a Booking.com API key or partner account? No. There is no key, no login, no browser and no quota of your own to manage.

Why is price null on some rows? Either no dates were given (then no row has a price), or Booking quoted no rate for that property for those dates — sold out, or minimum-stay rules. It is left null rather than guessed.

Can I get a specific hotel? Yes — type its name as a destination. Booking resolves it to the property itself, which arrives as the first row (with destinationId hotel:…), followed by its neighbours. Turn reviews on to get that hotel's reviews. Hotel-page links cannot be read directly, but the hotel's name can.

How do I know a search failed if the run stays green? Check for rows with type: "error" — that is the failure channel by design, so one bad search never costs the rest of the job. The run's status message also counts how many searches could not be read.
