☀️ HolidayCheck Reviews Scraper

Export hotel reviews from HolidayCheck (holidaycheck.de, .at and .ch), the German-language hotel review and travel site. Paste hotel or review links, a destination link or simply type hotel names, and get clean rows with the review text, the 1–6 sun rating, recommendation, traveler type, travel and review dates, every aspect rating and opinion, the hotel's reply and the hotel's own details. No login, no cookies, and you pay only for the reviews you save.

✨ Why use HolidayCheck Reviews Scraper?

• ⚡ Fast — reads HolidayCheck's own review data, up to 100 reviews per request: in our test runs 20 reviews took about 5 seconds, 1,000 reviews 10 seconds and 10,000 reviews under a minute.
• 🧾 Every detail of a review — title, full text, sun rating, recommendation, aspect ratings (room, food, service, pool, beach, …), opinions per topic, secret tips, room booked, tour operator and the hotel's reply.
• 🏨 Hotel details included — stars, city, region, country, address, coordinates, overall rating, recommendation rate, review count and aspect averages on every row.
• 🔎 Links, names or whole destinations — hotel pages, review pages, single reviews, destination pages (every hotel in a city, region or country), or just a hotel name.
• 🎯 Real filters — traveler type, minimum and maximum suns, review date range, recommendation, verified stays and five sort orders; filters in a pasted review link are kept.
• 💸 Cheap and simple — one flat price per saved review, no start fee.

💰 Pricing

$0.80 per 1,000 reviews saved ($0.0008 per review), with no start fee. Platform usage (compute and proxy traffic) is billed on top and is small: about $0.002 per 1,000 reviews in our test runs (256 MB memory, datacenter proxy).

Example: 1,000 reviews ≈ $0.80 in review fees plus about $0.002 of usage. You can cap any run with Maximum reviews or a maximum total charge; the run stops cleanly when the cap is reached.

❓ FAQ

Is it legal to scrape HolidayCheck? The actor collects publicly shown reviews, the same information any visitor sees without logging in. Reviewers appear with the first name and age group HolidayCheck shows. Check HolidayCheck's terms and the GDPR before you store or publish personal data.

Do I need a login or a proxy? No login. Proxies are built in: datacenter exits by default; if HolidayCheck refuses them, the run switches to German residential exits on its own.

How many reviews can I get? All reviews a hotel has (popular resorts have tens of thousands). Set Maximum reviews per hotel to 0 for everything. Destination links can return hundreds of thousands, so set a limit there.

Why is a field empty? Reviewers answer different questions: aspect ratings and opinions appear only when the reviewer filled them in, older reviews have fewer fields, and many reviews have no hotel reply.

Can I schedule it or use the API? Yes. Save your input as a task, schedule it (for example daily with Newest first), and connect webhooks or integrations. Every run can also be started and read through the API.

Coming from another HolidayCheck reviews tool? The field names (review_id, review_title, overall_rating, service_opinion, …) follow the common snake_case layout, and the old input names urls, results_wanted and review_sort still work.

⚠️ Limits

• Reviews come in the language HolidayCheck shows them, mostly German; there is no translation.
• Photos attached to reviews are not exported (the reviewer's profile picture is).
• The best and worst sort orders sort by suns and then by date, which can differ slightly from the site's own order within the same sun rating.
• Link filters for season and activities are not supported and are ignored (the run says so).
• Hotel names are matched with HolidayCheck's search; check the logged match for ambiguous names, or paste the hotel link.
