Scraping Booking.com: How to scrape using an API
Booking.com data provides invaluable Insight Into customer behavior across a wide range of countries: Companies can use this data to monitor competitors. perform search engine optimization, analyze and predict market trends, and more.

What is Booking Scraping?
Web scraping in general means automated collection of data. The term automated is key here: Technically, saving each Booking.com page manually is data collection, but this process is too labor-intensive and doesn’t scale well. Instead, Booking.com can be scraped with various tools and at different scales, but the end goal is the same: Using this data to generate value for your business or other people.

Solution for Your Data Collection Needs
Infatica helps you scrape Booking.com much easier – here’s how:
Zero-maintenance web scraping tool
Major websites like Booking.com try to protect their data from getting collected: They’re always changing the HTML structure of their pages to break third-party scrapers. Monitoring these changes takes up your time – time you could otherwise spend making your product even better.
Infatica solves this problem by doing all heavy lifting for you – and leaving you to handle more interesting tasks. Our Booking.com scraper requires no maintenance or fixing on your end.
Less CAPTCHAs, more data
Another kind of security tools that platforms like Booking.com use are anti-bot systems: for instance, reCAPTCHA or Cloudflare. They use a variety of factors, including IP addresses, to distinguish between humans and bots – and the latter are banned upon detection. This can significantly slow your entire web scraping pipeline – or even disrupt it completely.
Infatica addresses this problem via our own proxy network, which provides residential IP addresses from real desktop and mobile devices. This way, your data collector is almost indistinguishable from a human user, making it much harder to detect – and helping it scrape data more successfully.
Power + ease-of-use
Many hotel scrapers fail to maintain the balance between power and ease-of-use: They’re either oversimplified or overloaded. Collecting public data is something that both casual and power users are interested in – but finding the right tool can be tricky.
Infatica’s Booking.com scraper is a great choice for both small- and large-scale projects. Thanks to a user-friendly structure, you spend less time writing code – just specify the URL and download the page’s contents.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
There are several ways of doing that. One approach involves Infatica Scraper API – a data collection API that allows you to send requests to the platform and download useful data in any format. Alternatively, you can try open-source Booking.com scrapers – but their downside is unstable support from their developers.
-
Yes, but this largely depends on the type of proxy you’re using: The datacenter one, for instance, is easier to detect because the IPs often happen to be shared between the users. Conversely, extracting data with residential proxies is easier thanks to residential IP addresses, which are provided by real local users.
-
Generally, US courts agree that data scraping from websites like Booking.com is legal – with one important caveat: Collected data cannot be simply reposted to another website. Instead, it should be transformed into a new product – in the case of Booking.com, a great example would be a price aggregation service.
Also, see our detailed overview of web scraping legality.
-
Thanks to a robust proxy and header system, you aren’t likely to encounter CAPTCHAs or get banned by Cloudflare. Infatica Scraper API utilizes a proxy network – a system of residential IP addresses that helps requests appear more human-like. This generally helps to avoid triggering anti-bot and DDoS protection systems that different websites employ to protect their data, but the overall request success rate will depend on the website.
-
Scraper works with a large variety of countries. Most importantly, it also offers the ability to select the country/domain combination manually, allowing you to create custom requests from select countries using geolocation.
The most popular geolocations include: the United States, Germany, the Netherlands, France, Russia, Ukraine, India, Turkey, Poland, China, Brazil, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, and Vietnam – and the full location list is much bigger. -
Interpreting data may be as tricky as getting it – but if done right, it can improve your business in multiple ways:
- Market analysis: learn more about customer behavior, demand, and feedback; understand your competitors and market trends better.
- Lead generation: acquire prospective customers and leads via contact information and social media profiles that are openly available.
- Search Engine Optimization: monitor relevant keywords and your performance across various search engines.
- Price tracking: adjust your pricing strategy according to your market and your competitors’ behavior, offering the best flexible price to the customer.
- And much more.
