Google Hotels Scraper & API: prices, ratings and photos

Google Hotels Scraper is an Apify Actor that returns Google Hotels results for any city or area: prices for your dates (per night and with taxes), star class, rating and review count, coordinates, nearby places, photos, website and Google links, with rating, class and price filters, at $1 per 1,000 hotels.

Price: $1 per 1,000 hotels ($0.80 on Gold and above) · Run it: https://apify.com/automationnation/google-hotels-scraper · Guide: https://retracn.github.io/automationnation-actors/google-hotels-scraper/

Quick facts

  • One row per hotel: nightly price before and with taxes, currency, dates, class, rating, review count, rating breakdown, coordinates, nearby places, photos, website and links.
  • Set check-in, check-out and adults for exact prices.
  • 20 hotels per search in seconds, plain HTTP.
  • Price: $1 per 1,000 hotels.
  • Hotel price tracker: with Only price drops on, a scheduled run saves a hotel only when its nightly price is lower than the last price seen for it (up to 500 hotels remembered per search), with the previous price on the row.

Example input

{
  "locations": [
    "Paris"
  ],
  "checkIn": "2026-11-20",
  "checkOut": "2026-11-23"
}

Hotel price tracker (price drops)

Schedule a search for your city and dates with "onlyPriceDrops": true: each run saves a hotel only when its nightly price is lower than the last price seen for it, with previousPricePerNight on the row. Up to 500 hotels are remembered per search.

{ "locations": ["Lisbon"], "checkIn": "2026-12-18", "checkOut": "2026-12-21", "minRating": "4", "onlyPriceDrops": true }

FAQ

Is there an official Google Hotels API? Google's Hotel APIs are for hotel partners managing their own prices; there's no public API for Google Hotels search results.

How many hotels per search? Up to 20; use neighbourhood or star-rating searches to cover a city.

Can it track hotel prices for my dates? Yes. Schedule a search for your city and dates with Only price drops on: each run saves only hotels whose nightly price dropped, with the previous price, ready for Slack, email or a webhook.
