Google Hotels Scraper

Pull structured hotel and vacation-rental data straight out of Google Hotels: property names, nightly and total rates, star class, guest ratings and review counts, amenity lists, GPS coordinates, image galleries, and stable Google identifiers you can join on. Built for revenue managers, travel affiliates and market analysts who need a live view of a destination's inventory without babysitting a browser or stitching together a dozen hotel-brand sites.

Why This Scraper?

• Two modes in one actor — search a location ("hotels in Paris") for browsable inventory, or feed property tokens back in to pull each property's own check-in and check-out times, which the search cards never carry
• Filters Google actually honours — 19 amenities, 12 hotel property types, 10 vacation-rental types and 5 star levels, all picked by name from dropdowns. Every one was checked against what Google says it applied, so a "Resorts" search returns resorts and not the whole city
• Amenity lists on roughly 9 of every 10 first-page results — and they stay correct in German, Portuguese and Indonesian, not just English (measured across four market and language combinations)
• Vacation rentals mode — flip one toggle to search villas, houses, cabins, cottages, chalets, bungalows, gîtes, holiday villages and houseboats, complete with the capacity facts Google shows on the card ("Entire villa", "Sleeps 6", "3 bedrooms")
• Occupancy that moves the price — up to 50 adults and 50 children with a per-child age list. Rates come back quoted for the party you asked for instead of Google's silent default of two adults
• Localization that reaches the currency — 43 countries, 19 languages and 21 currencies, and every link in the output carries the same country and language, so the page you open is the same market you searched
• Clean numeric pricing — ratePerNight and totalRate arrive as { extracted, currency, formatted } objects, ready to sort, average and drop into a spreadsheet without stripping currency symbols
• Stable join keys on every row — propertyToken, googlePlaceId and a numeric propertyId, so you can track the same hotel across weeks of runs and match it to your own records
• From $1 per 1,000 results — you pay per result row, not per page, so a query that runs out of inventory costs you nothing extra

Use Cases

Revenue Management & Compset Analysis

• Pull competitor nightly rates for an identical check-in/check-out window and party size

Travel & Hospitality Market Research

• Measure how a destination's inventory splits across 1- to 5-star classes
• Size the boutique, hostel, resort or bed-and-breakfast segment in any city
• Watch rate spreads across neighbourhoods by running one query per district

Travel Content & Affiliate Sites

• Populate "Best hotels in…" and "Top vacation rentals in…" pages with fresh rates and ratings
• Keep review counts, star classes and amenity lists current on destination guides
• Localize the same guide for 19 languages and 21 currencies from a single input set

Lead Generation & Prospecting

• Build lists of independent properties by filtering out chains on star class and property type
• Match prospects to your CRM using Google Place IDs and GPS coordinates
• Feed tokens back through the actor for each property's check-in and check-out times

Vacation Rental Intelligence

Getting Started

Simple Search

Enter a location and let the defaults handle the rest (2 adults, check-in 14 days out, US / English / USD):

{
    "searchQueries": ["hotels in Paris"]
}

Search with Dates & Guests

Target a specific stay window and party size:

{
    "searchQueries": ["hotels in Tokyo", "ryokan in Kyoto"],
    "checkInDate": "2026-05-12",
    "checkOutDate": "2026-05-18",
    "adults": 2,
    "children": 1,
    "childrenAges": "7",
    "language": "en",
    "currency": "JPY",
    "country": "jp"
}

Filtered Search

Narrow by star rating, required amenities and property type:

{
    "searchQueries": ["hotels in Barcelona"],
    "checkInDate": "2026-06-10",
    "checkOutDate": "2026-06-14",
    "stars": ["4", "5"],
    "amenities": ["free_wifi", "pool", "air_conditioned"],
    "propertyTypes": ["boutique_hotels", "resorts"]
}

Vacation Rentals

Search houses, villas and apartments instead of hotels:

{
    "searchQueries": ["vacation rentals in Malibu"],
    "vacationRentals": true,
    "rentalTypes": ["villas", "houses"],
    "checkInDate": "2026-07-15",
    "checkOutDate": "2026-07-22",
    "adults": 4
}

Property Details by Token

Already have property tokens from an earlier run? Pull the detail record for each one:

{
    "propertyTokens": ["ChYIhJvEzt34sfmCARoJL20vMDMzYnhzEAE"],
    "checkInDate": "2026-08-01",
    "checkOutDate": "2026-08-05"
}

Input Reference

Search

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
searchQueries	string[]	["hotels in Paris"]	Location-based search queries such as "hotels in Paris" or "Bali resorts". Each query produces its own set of results.
propertyTokens	string[]	[]	Google Hotels property tokens (from earlier search results) to pull a detail record for specific properties.

Provide at least one of the two. You can also combine them in a single run.

Dates & Guests

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
checkInDate	string (YYYY-MM-DD)	14 days from today	Check-in date. Must be today or a future date.
checkOutDate	string (YYYY-MM-DD)	day after check-in	Check-out date. Must be after check-in.
adults	integer	2	Number of adult guests (1–50).
children	integer	0	Number of child guests (0–50).
childrenAges	string	""	Comma-separated ages (e.g. "5,8,12"). Required when children > 0. Each age 0–17.

Anything other than the default 2 adults with no children returns the first page of results only, because Google applies your party size to that page and quotes its standard two-guest rate on everything after it.

Filters

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
stars	string[]	[]	Only include hotels with these star ratings. Options: "1" – "5".
amenities	string[]	[]	Only include properties that offer all of these amenities. 19 options: Free parking, Parking, Indoor pool, Outdoor pool, Pool, Fitness center, Restaurant, Free breakfast, Spa, Beach access, Child-friendly, Bar, Pet-friendly, Room service, Free Wi-Fi, Air-conditioned, All-inclusive available, Wheelchair accessible, EV charger.
propertyTypes	string[]	[]	Only include these hotel property types. 12 options: Beach hotels, Boutique hotels, Hostels, Inns, Motels, Resorts, Spa hotels, Bed and breakfasts, Apartment hotels, Minshuku, Japanese-style business hotels, Ryokan. Ignored when Vacation Rentals mode is enabled.

An amenity, property-type or rental-type filter also returns the first page only. Google applies those three to the opening result block and then stops, so later pages would hand you properties that ignore your filter. Star filters keep paginating, and rows that contradict the star filter are dropped rather than billed.

Vacation Rentals

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
vacationRentals	boolean	false	Search vacation rentals (houses, villas, apartments) instead of hotels.
rentalTypes	string[]	[]	Rental types to include. 10 options: Apartments, Bungalows, Cabins, Chalets, Cottages, Gîtes, Holiday villages, Houses, Houseboats, Villas.

Localization

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
country	string	"us"	Country code for localizing results (ISO 3166-1 alpha-2). 43 countries supported.
language	string	"en"	Language for result text (ISO 639-1). 19 languages supported.
currency	string	"USD"	Currency for prices (ISO 4217). 21 currencies supported.

Advanced

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
maxPages	integer	1	How far to keep going past the first page. Page 1 is Google's opening result block, typically 18–20 properties. Each page after that comes from Google's "nearby properties" expansion and adds roughly 6–17 new properties once duplicates are removed, so 3 usually returns 40–50 properties in total on an unfiltered query. Set 0 to keep expanding until Google stops offering new properties. Ignored (first page only) when an amenity, property-type or rental-type filter is set, or when the party is not the default 2 adults — expect 18–20 results from those searches whatever you set here. You are billed per result, never per page.

Output

A search query produces one search metadata record plus one property record per result. A property token produces one property detail record. Every row carries a recordType field so you can split them apart.

Field	Type	Description

query	string	The search query this result came from
pageNumber	integer	1-indexed page number
type	string	"Hotel" or "Vacation rental"
name	string	Property name
description	string	Google's editorial one-liner. First-page hotel results only; vacation rentals never have one
link	string	Google Hotels URL, carrying the same country and language as your run

reviews	integer	Total review count

ratePerNight	object	{ extracted, currency, formatted } for the check-in and check-out dates you asked for
totalRate	object	{ extracted, currency, formatted } for the check-in and check-out dates you asked for

Fields Google does not publish for a given property are left out of that row rather than filled with nulls.

Both rate fields are omitted whenever Google only quotes that property for some other set of dates, so a number you see is always a number for the stay you searched. The rest of the listing still comes back, so you keep the property, its link, its location, its rating and its amenities even when there is no quote for your dates.

Property detail record (recordType: "propertyDetail")

Returned for each entry in propertyTokens. It adds the property's own check-in and check-out times and its address, neither of which appears on a search card, and omits pricing, which Google does not publish on the property page.

    "query": "hotels in Las Vegas",
    "estimatedTotalResults": 7998,
    "searchTimestamp": "2026-08-10T14:14:48Z",
    "language": "en",
    "country": "us",
    "currency": "USD"
}

Field	Type	Description
recordType	string	Always "searchMetadata"
query	string	The search query
estimatedTotalResults	integer	Google's own rough count for the page it served. Useful for seeing whether a filter narrowed things, but it shifts between runs and regions, so don't read it as a market size

language	string	Language the results were requested in
country	string	Country the results were localized to
currency	string	Currency the prices are quoted in

Tips for Best Results

• Always set dates — rates and availability only appear when check-in and check-out are provided, and they drive Google's own price ordering
• Go narrow, not deep — three neighbourhood queries ("hotels in Le Marais", "hotels in Saint-Germain", "hotels in Montmartre") return far more distinct properties than one city-wide query with a high maxPages, because each query gets its own fresh first page
• Amenity, property-type and rental-type filters stop at page one — so does any party other than 2 adults. That is Google's behaviour, not a limit we chose: it applies those to the opening result block and nothing after it. Expect 18–20 rows from those searches and split the market across several queries if you need more. Star filters are the exception and keep paginating
• Match currency to destination — prices in the native currency avoid FX rounding artifacts. Use EUR for European hotels, JPY for Japan
• Stack filters carefully — combining stars, amenities and property type can over-constrain a small market down to a handful of properties. Start broad, then add one filter at a time
• Amenities and descriptions come from page one — if those two fields matter to your analysis, run more queries at maxPages: 1 rather than fewer queries at maxPages: 5
• Hotels and rentals are two different searches — Google keeps them in separate modes, so run two jobs if you need both
• Children need ages — when children > 0, list one age per child in childrenAges, or Google prices the room for a different party than you asked for

Pricing

From $1 per 1,000 results — a flat pay-per-result rate. Bronze, Silver and Gold subscribers pay progressively less; the table below shows total cost at each discount tier.

Results	No discount	Bronze	Silver	Gold
100	$0.120	$0.113	$0.106	$0.100
1,000	$1.20	$1.13	$1.06	$1.00
10,000	$12.00	$11.30	$10.60	$10.00
100,000	$120.00	$113.00	$106.00	$100.00

A "result" is any row in your dataset — one per property, plus one metadata row per query. There are no compute or time-based charges; you pay per result, plus a small fixed per-run start fee. Storage and other platform fees depend on your Apify plan.
