What you get

Built for global hotel booking.

Everything a modern booking platform needs to search, price, and confirm hotel reservations — through one normalized REST API.

Real-time availability

Live inventory and dynamic rates from dozens of source suppliers, normalized into a single response. No stale caches, no manual reconciliation.

Rich content

High-resolution photography, structured descriptions, amenity lists, and room-level imagery — ready to drop into your product UI.

Multiple rate plans

Refundable, non-refundable, breakfast included, member rates, advance purchase — all rate plans for a room exposed in the same response.

Geocoded properties

Latitude, longitude, neighbourhood, and proximity-to-landmark data on every property. Plug straight into a map view or search-near-me feature.

Multilingual content

Property names, descriptions, and amenity labels available in major languages. Localize your booking flow without managing your own translation pipeline.

Cancellation policies

Structured cancellation rules per rate plan — deadlines, penalty amounts, and currency — so your platform can show clear, accurate refund terms at booking.

Property types

Every category, one schema.

From five-star resorts to budget hostels — your platform decides which segments to surface.

What hotel data does the API return?

The API returns a normalized JSON response including hotel name, star rating, guest rating and reviews, location with geocoordinates, amenities, room-level imagery, multiple rate plans (refundable, non-refundable, breakfast included), structured cancellation policies, and a booking token.

Does the hotel API support real-time availability?

Yes. All availability and pricing are queried in real-time from underlying suppliers. Rates reflect live inventory at the time of the API request.

Can I filter hotels by amenities or location?

Yes. The API supports filtering by property type, star rating, amenities, price range, proximity to a geocoordinate or landmark, and specific rate plan types like refundable-only or breakfast-included.

What rate plans are available through the Hotel API?

The API supports multiple rate plan types per room including room-only, bed and breakfast, half board, full board, all-inclusive, advance purchase, non-refundable, and member/loyalty rates. Each rate plan includes structured cancellation policy data with deadline timestamps and penalty amounts.

What is a hotel API?

A hotel API is a programmatic interface that lets a travel platform search live room availability, retrieve rates, content and policies, and confirm or cancel bookings without using a manual extranet. The Tripgic Hotel API aggregates 2M+ properties from 50+ suppliers into one normalized JSON schema.

How does hotel API integration work with Tripgic?

Every supplier follows the same flow: location auto-suggest, search, room availability, property details, price and policy validation, booking, then voucher issuance. All endpoints are REST/JSON on one base URL with sandbox credentials issued at sign-up, so teams typically go from first call to a test booking in days.

Which Tripgic plan includes the Hotel API?

Hotel API access is included in the Growth plan (flights + hotels) and the Enterprise plan (full stack). Starter covers flights only and Essential covers ancillary services. Hotel bookings carry a flat per-night markup — never a percentage commission.
