Frequently asked questions
What does the Google Hotels Autocomplete API return?
The API returns hotel and destination suggestions as users type, including location names, hotel names, suggestion type, thumbnails, property tokens, and ready-to-use search links when available.
Can I use it for a hotel search bar?
Yes. It is designed for travel search bars that need fast hotel, city, region, and landmark suggestions before sending users into a full hotel search workflow.
Does autocomplete support localization?
Yes. Language and country parameters can localize suggestions for global travel products and regional booking experiences.
How is this different from the Google Hotels API?
The autocomplete endpoint focuses on resolving user input into hotel and destination suggestions. The broader Google Hotels API covers search and price comparison workflows after a destination is selected.
