n8n-nodes-google-hotels-api

An n8n community node that searches Google Hotels and returns structured property listings: name, nightly rate, total rate, rating, amenities, and coordinates. It is backed by the Google Hotels API on Apify and bills per result, so there are no subscriptions and no minimums.

What it does

Give the node a destination and dates, and it returns one item per property with the name, type, nightly and total rates, guest rating, review count, location, and amenities. It also works as an AI Agent tool, so an agent can look up places to stay on demand.

• Search hotels and vacation rentals by query and stay dates
• Filter by minimum and maximum nightly price
• Localize with currency, country, and language codes
• Choose how much data to return per property: Simplified, Raw, or Selected Fields

Installation

Follow the n8n community nodes installation guide:

1. In n8n, open Settings > Community Nodes.
2. Select Install.
3. Enter n8n-nodes-google-hotels-api as the npm package name.
4. Agree to the risks of using community nodes, then select Install.

After it installs, the Google Hotels node appears in the nodes panel.

n8n Cloud only allows verified community nodes. Until this node is verified, install it on a self-hosted n8n instance.

Credentials

You need a free Apify account and an API token.

1. Sign in to the Apify Console.
2. Open Settings > Integrations and copy your Personal API token.
3. In n8n, create a new Apify API credential and paste the token.
4. Use the credential's Test button to confirm it works.

The node also supports Apify OAuth2 if you prefer to connect that way.

Operations

Hotel > Search returns properties that match a query and dates.

| Parameter | Description | | --- | --- | | Search Query | Destination or query to search for. Required. | | Check-In Date / Check-Out Date | Stay dates, YYYY-MM-DD. | | Adults / Children | Guest counts. | | Currency | Three-letter currency code. | | Country Code / Language Code | Localization, for example us and en. | | Minimum Price / Maximum Price | Nightly rate bounds. 0 for no limit. | | Maximum Pages | How many result pages to fetch. | | Output | How much data to return: Simplified, Raw, or Selected Fields. |

Output

Each property is returned as its own n8n item. The API returns nested fields per property, so the Output parameter lets you choose how much to return:

• Simplified (default): a compact object with name, type, ratePerNight, totalRate, overallRating, reviews, locationRating, latitude, longitude, and propertyToken. This mode is also used automatically when the node runs as an AI Agent tool, to keep responses small.
• Raw: every field the API returns for each property, using the original field names below.
• Selected Fields: pick exactly which fields to include.

Fields (Raw and Selected Fields)

| Field | Type | Description | | --- | --- | --- | | name | string | Property name | | type | string | Property type, for example hotel or vacation rental | | property_token | string | Token used to fetch property details | | gps_coordinates | object | Latitude and longitude | | check_in_time | string | Check-in time | | check_out_time | string | Check-out time | | rate_per_night | object | Nightly rate, with and without taxes and fees | | total_rate | object | Total rate for the stay | | prices | array | Rates by source | | nearby_places | array | Notable places nearby | | images | array | Property image URLs | | overall_rating | number | Overall guest rating | | reviews | integer | Number of reviews | | location_rating | number | Location rating | | amenities | array | Available amenities | | excluded_amenities | array | Amenities not available | | essential_info | array | Short highlights about the property |

Example workflows

1. Compare hotel rates for a trip

1. Manual Trigger.
2. Google Hotels: Search Query your destination, Check-In and Check-Out dates, Output Simplified.
3. Sort: by ratePerNight ascending to find the cheapest options.

2. Daily price watch for a destination

1. Schedule Trigger: run once a day.
2. Google Hotels: your destination and dates, Maximum Price set to your budget.
3. IF / Slack: alert when a highly rated property drops below your target.

3. Let an AI Agent recommend places to stay

1. AI Agent node.
2. Attach Google Hotels as a tool.
3. Ask "Find a 4-star hotel in Austin under $200 for next weekend." The agent calls the node (in Simplified mode) and answers with live options.

Pricing

This node calls the Google Hotels API on Apify, which is billed pay-per-result: a small per-search fee (about $0.04 per page of results) plus a fraction of a cent per property returned, with no subscription and no minimums. Apify also includes a free monthly usage tier that covers typical volumes. See the Actor page for current rates.
