# Booking.com booking.com Hotel Reviews API

> Scrape a Booking.com hotel's guest reviews. Call the Booking.com booking.com Hotel Reviews API for JSON. 1 credit per call.

Scrape a Booking.com hotel's guest reviews. The hotel is identified by its URL or ID.

## Request

Exactly one of `hotelUrl` or `hotelId` is required. A request that sets both, or none, fails with `invalidRequest`.

  import { Stophy } from "stophy";

  const stophy = new Stophy({ apiKey: process.env.STOPHY_API_KEY });
  const result = await stophy.booking.hotel.reviews({ hotelId: "15781550" });
  console.log(result.data.results);
  ```

  ```python Python icon="python" theme={null}
  from stophy import Stophy

  stophy = Stophy()  # reads STOPHY_API_KEY
  result = stophy.booking.hotel.reviews(hotel_id="15781550")
  print(result["data"]["results"])
  ```

  ```bash cURL icon="terminal" theme={null}

    -H "Authorization: Bearer $STOPHY_API_KEY" \

  ```

  ```bash CLI icon="square-terminal" theme={null}
  stophy booking hotel reviews --hotelId 15781550
  ```
</CodeGroup>

## Response

If successful, the response body contains the standard envelope. `data.results[]` contains a page of the hotel's reviews, each with its score, what the guest liked and disliked, room and dates.

The following example is a real response, truncated: each list shows one item and long strings are cut.

| Field | Type | Description |
| - | - | - |
| `cursor` | string | The pagination token. Pass it as `cursor` to retrieve the next page. Omitted on the last page. |
| `total` | integer | The total number of matching results, across all pages. |
| `score` | number | Upvotes minus downvotes. |
| `createdAt` | string (ISO 8601) | The creation time, in UTC. |

For every field, see the response schema on this page.

## Optional parameters

| Parameter | Type | Description |
| - | - | - |
| `sort` | string | Booking.com's own Sort reviews by: newest, `mostRelevant` or `lowestScore` (lowest scores first). Only newest pages without gaps. The other orders change between requests, so a walk through the pages can miss reviews. Acceptable values are `newest`, `mostRelevant` and `lowestScore`. If unset, defaults to `newest`. |
| `cursor` | string | The pagination token from the previous response. |

## Billing

Each successful request consumes 1 credit, regardless of the number of items returned. Requests that fail, or that return no items, are not billed.

## Pagination

Results are paginated. To retrieve the next page, pass the value of `data.cursor` as `cursor` in a subsequent request. A response that omits `cursor` is the last page.

## OpenAPI

````yaml api-reference/openapi.json POST /v1/booking/hotel/reviews
openapi: 3.1.0
info:
  title: Stophy API
  version: '1'
  description: >-
    Every endpoint is a POST that takes its input as a JSON object body. Unknown
    fields are rejected with 400.


    Responses leave out empty values: null, empty strings, empty objects and
    empty nested lists are not sent.


    Text comes back whole. To get shorter responses, add
    ?maxTextLength=<characters> to the URL. Every text value longer than that is
    cut and ends with …. A screenshot is never cut, and a page whose text was
    cut has isTruncated set to true.


    x-credits is what one call costs. Every call costs the same, whatever it
    returns, unless an operation's description says it costs per 10 results, or
    per second of audio. Then x-credits is the lowest price and x-credits-max
    the most one call can cost. Where an operation takes limit, send it to
    return fewer results and pay for fewer.


    When a response has a cursor, send it back unchanged with the same input to
    get the next page. When it has a page, send the next page number.
