What people build with the Booking.com Search API

Travel price research

Every property in a city for the same nights, sorted by price, with guest score beside each one.

Market mapping

Count hotels, apartments or hostels in a destination by stars and score before you price or invest.

Trip planning agents

Let an agent search a city with a budget and a minimum score, then shortlist the best value.

details is always the last field: everything else the source sent for that row, under our own field names. Its keys depend on the source that answered, so read them defensively; it is {} when there is nothing more.

A sample answer

Made-up names and values in the real field names, so you can see the shape before you spend anything.

propertyName	propertyType	city	country	starRating	guestScore
Hotel Alfama View	Hotel	Lisbon	Portugal	4	8.8
Rio Tejo Apartments	Apartment	Lisbon	Portugal		9.1
Baixa Boutique Inn	Inn	Lisbon	Portugal	3	8.4

Pricing

Pay as you go, in US dollars, per record. No subscription, nothing expires, $5 first top-up, and every new agent starts with $0.10 free.

Request	Records	At the list price
One property	1	$0.0018
10 properties	10	$0.018
A full page	100	$0.18

These are per-record list prices. Some calls also carry a minimum, such as a page of search results, so a small request can cost more than the table shows. The quote ("estimateOnly": true) is free, gives the most your exact request can cost, and the charge then settles to what came back. Records that do not come back are refunded.

Try it without writing code

Open the Booking.com Search API in the playgroundThe playground runs any endpoint by hand: pick a platform and what you want from it, fill a short form named in plain words (or press Use sample input), see the free quote on the Run button, run it, then read the answer as a table or JSON and download it as CSV or JSON. The same call is written out as cURL, Python and Node while you type.

Why this one, and not a scraper you run yourself

No login, no Booking.com account, no cookies, no proxies, no browser to babysit.
When the site changes its pages, your request stays the same: keeping the reads working is our job, not yours.
A fetch that fails costs nothing: it is named in the answer with a reason, and the quote says the most a call can cost before it runs.

Use it from your tools

Questions people ask.

What does the Booking.com Search API return?

One row per property: name, property type, city, country, star rating, guest score and its label, review count, price from, currency, the property slug, id and URL, images and a map URL.

What do I pass in?

A destination is required. Optional: a stay with check-in and check-out dates, currency and language, a property type in Booking's own words, minimum stars (1 to 5), a minimum guest score on the 0 to 10 scale, a price range for the whole stay, sort (relevance, price_low, rating_high or distance) and a limit of 1 to 100.

How much does it cost?

$0.0018 per property at the list price. A small call can carry a minimum, so quote first with "estimateOnly": true, which is free and is the most the call can cost. You pay for what comes back.

Why people pick API for Agents

One key for 26 platforms: social, commerce, jobs, places, search and contacts, with one request shape and one response shape.
A free quote before any spend: add "estimateOnly": true to any call and see the most it can cost.
Pay per record in US dollars. No subscription, nothing expires, top-ups from $5.
$0.10 free to try, no card. An AI agent can sign itself up in one request; a person claims it later.
Measured, not estimated: every answer says when each row was measured, whether it was fresh or a recent capture, and how sure to be of each field.
Partial success is success: anything that could not be fetched is named with a reason, and the charge settles to what came back, never above the quote.
Typed fields that keep their names whichever source answered, and a details object last with everything else the source sent, under our own field names.
Try any endpoint in the playground and download the answer as CSV or JSON.
