Tripadvisor Reviews Scraper: Hotels and Restaurants

Get Tripadvisor reviews for any hotel, restaurant, attraction or vacation rental, by URL or just by name + city, and keep watching them: a date cut off and "only new reviews since the last run" make scheduled monitoring cheap. Ratings, full review text, dates, reviewer details, photos and owner replies, ready as JSON, CSV or Excel. No login, no browser, no proxies.

One row per review:

The dataset has three ready views in the Console: Reviews, Reviewers and Places. A RUN_SUMMARY record in the run's key value store lists places and reviews collected, reviews skipped by the cut off, and which inputs were skipped and why.

You pay per event, through your Apify account. Main price: $0.40 per 1,000 reviews on the Apify Free plan and $0.29 on Gold, plus $0.0001 per place with reviews ($0.00001 on Gold). Every event and plan:

Every run is one HTTP request to the Apify API with your Apify token; the input below is the actor's own example. The synchronous endpoint returns the rows in the response for runs up to 300 seconds; for longer runs start a run and fetch its dataset.

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/cheapapi~tripadvisor-reviews-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $APIFY_TOKEN" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"startUrls":[{"url":"https://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g187147-d188151-Reviews-Eiffel_Tower-Paris_Ile_de_France.html"}],"maxReviewsPerPlace":100,"language":"en"}'

With the JavaScript client:

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: process.env.APIFY_TOKEN });
const run = await client.actor('cheapapi/tripadvisor-reviews-scraper').call({
  "startUrls": [
    {
      "url": "https://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g187147-d188151-Reviews-Eiffel_Tower-Paris_Ile_de_France.html"
    }
  ],
  "maxReviewsPerPlace": 100,
  "language": "en"
});
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();

Cost of a typical run, 1,000 reviews from 10 places given as URLs, on each Apify plan:

Prices from public Apify Store listings, checked September 2026; user counts are rounded. Totals include each option's start fee and our $0.0001 per place fee (10 places = $0.001); Apify platform usage is not included for any option (for this Actor it is billed separately by Apify, about $0.001 to $0.004 for a small run at the default 256 MB). The flat $0.50 option is the closest in price: we are $0.10 cheaper per 1,000 reviews on Free to Silver and $0.21 cheaper on Gold and above, and you also get the date cut off, "only new reviews since the last run" (repeats never charged as reviews), name search and bulk input from a dataset. Against the most used Actor we are much cheaper on Free to Gold, 42% cheaper on Platinum, and about the same price on Diamond ($0.29 vs $0.30 per 1,000), there the reasons to choose this Actor are the built in monitoring, cut off and bulk input, not the price. Gold and above always use economy processing here (results can take up to ~45 minutes). If you search by name instead of pasting URLs, add $0.0022 per place found (e.g. $0.022 for 10 places).

• Reputation monitoring, schedule a daily run with "Only new reviews since the last run" and send new 1 to 2 star reviews to Slack or email.
• Competitor benchmarking, compare ratings, star distributions and complaint themes of the top 20 hotels or restaurants in a city.
• Sentiment and topic analysis, feed full review text into LLM, NLP or BI pipelines.
• Owner reply audits, measure how often and how fast management responds (ownerResponseDate vs publishedDate).
• Seasonal and audience research, filter by months of visit and traveler type.
• Lead generation for hospitality vendors, find places with recurring complaints (cleanliness, WiFi, noise).

• Place coordinates, website and phone number, our Tripadvisor review data does not contain them. For coordinates, websites, phone numbers and Google reviews of the same places, use Google Maps Scraper Plus.
• Helpful vote counts of individual reviews, not available in our review data, so they are not guessed.
• The reviewer's traveler type as a field, it works as a filter (Traveler types), so filter per type if you need it per row.
• Reviews Tripadvisor hides or removes, and anything behind a login.
• Place only listings without reviews (e.g. a list of all hotels in a city with prices), this Actor delivers reviews; places are only context on each review row.

• Maximum 4,490 reviews per place per run; you never receive (or pay for) more than your limit per place.
• Published dates have day precision, so the cut off works per day; reviews from the same day that were already delivered are recognized by their review id.
• The monitoring watch lives in a named key value store in your account; deleting it or changing the name starts a new watch.
• Traveler type and month filters rely on what reviewers entered on Tripadvisor; reviews without that information are not matched by those filters.
• City matching for name searches works best with "City, Country". Very small towns may not be recognized, use the URL instead.
• Sub ratings (highlights), photos and owner replies are present only when the reviewer / owner provided them. Helpful votes, place coordinates and place websites are not included (see Not included).
• A source dataset is read up to its first 50,000 rows; your account must be able to access it.
