Booking.com Hotel Scraper - Prices, Reviews & Availability

Scrape Booking.com hotel and accommodation search results for travel market research, price monitoring, and competitor analysis. The actor searches one or more destinations for a date range, extracts clean property records, deduplicates by Booking.com property ID, and saves the results to an Apify Dataset. Export to JSON, CSV, Excel, or HTML, or pull via the Apify API — no login and no API key required.

For the first run, start small: one destination, a one-night future date range, maxResults between 5 and 10, and the recommended residential proxy enabled.

Each clean hotel record is saved through the hotel-scraped pay-per-event flow, so output is only kept when the event charge is accepted. The actor skips incomplete cards that do not expose a property name and Booking.com hotel URL, so the dataset avoids empty placeholder rows.

Features

• Multiple destinations in one run
• Check-in and check-out date search
• Adults, rooms, currency, review score, and property type inputs
• Pagination up to 500 properties per destination
• Residential proxy support for Apify cloud runs
• Random delays, session pool, and retry handling
• Null fallbacks for fields that Booking.com does not expose on every search card

Pricing and cost control

This Actor uses Apify Pay Per Event + platform usage pricing. You pay for clean hotel records saved to the dataset, and you also pay the Apify platform usage generated by the run, such as compute and residential proxy traffic.

Event	Price
apify-actor-start	$0.001 / GB
hotel-scraped	$0.008 per clean hotel record
1,000 hotels	$8.00 + startup + platform usage
10,000 hotels	$80.00 + startup + platform usage

Cost-control tips:

• Start with one destination.
• Use a one-night future date range for your first test.
• Use maxResults between 5 and 10 for test runs.
• Add minReviewScore such as 7 to keep results cleaner.
• Keep residential proxy enabled for reliability, but remember proxy traffic is billed as platform usage.
• Increase destinations and result limits only after a small run returns the expected data.

Output dataset

The default Hotel Records dataset view is designed for quick export to CSV, Excel, JSON, or API workflows. It shows the most useful booking research fields first: destination, hotel name, stars, guest score, review count, total price, nightly price, currency, city/country, distance from city center, cancellation signal, property URL, property ID, and scraped timestamp. Extra fields such as property type, amenities, original price, images, and coordinates remain available in the full JSON output when Booking.com exposes them.
