## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## Hotels.com Hotels Scraper

Scrape hotel listings from Hotels.com with amenity filters, guest ratings, nightly prices, and direct booking URLs.

### What it does

- Searches Hotels.com for hotels in any US city/region
- Applies amenity filters (hot tub, pool, gym, parking, breakfast, spa, and more)
- Returns guest ratings, nightly prices, and direct Hotels.com URLs
- Handles bot detection automatically with IP rotation

### Features

| Feature | Details |
|---------|---------|
| **Amenity filter** | Hot tub, pool, indoor pool, gym, parking, free parking, pet-friendly, restaurant, breakfast included, spa, free WiFi, airport shuttle, kitchen |
| **Guest ratings** | 10-point scale (e.g. 8.6 "Excellent") |
| **Pricing** | Date-specific nightly prices for your check-in/check-out dates |
| **Results** | 60–90 hotels per city |

### Output fields

```json
{
  "hotel_id": "3936",
  "name": "Holiday Inn Express Atlanta Airport",
  "guest_rating": 8.2,
  "review_count": 1843,
  "nightly_price": 106,
  "property_url": "https://www.hotels.com/ho3936/...",

  "check_in": "2026-08-01",
  "check_out": "2026-08-03",
  "location_searched": "Atlanta, Georgia"
}
```

### Input

| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| `location` | string\[] | City names, e.g. `["Atlanta, Georgia", "Miami, Florida"]` |
| `checkIn` | string | Check-in date: `YYYY-MM-DD` |
| `checkOut` | string | Check-out date: `YYYY-MM-DD` |

### Example

```json
{
  "location": ["Atlanta, Georgia"],
  "checkIn": "2026-08-01",
  "checkOut": "2026-08-03",
  "amenities": ["hot_tub"],
  "resultsWanted": 50,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true,
    "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"],
    "apifyProxyCountry": "US"
  }
}
```

### Proxy requirement

Requires **Residential proxy** to bypass Hotels.com's bot detection. Apify Starter plan ($29/month) includes residential proxies at $8/GB.

### Notes

- Hotels.com uses a 10-point guest rating system (same as Expedia — shared infrastructure)
- Results represent the first page of Hotels.com search results
- Run time: 20–90 seconds per location

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "location": [
        "Atlanta, Georgia"
    ],
    "checkIn": "2026-08-01",

echo '{
  "location": [

  ],
  "checkIn": "2026-08-01",
  "checkOut": "2026-08-03",

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,rupom888/hotels-com-scraper"
        }
    }
}
```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
