Booking Reviews Monitoring

You do not run this one.
It runs, and emails you.

Give it your Booking.com hotels once - a URL or just the slug - and it re-scans their reviews on a schedule you pick, from once a day to once every three months. Set the score at or below which a review counts as negative, give it an address, and the report comes to you. Eleven columns per review, including Booking's own split of what the guest liked and disliked.

How it works

Set it once,
then read your inbox.

The input is the property and the schedule - you name the hotels, say how often to look and what counts as a bad review, and the monitor does the rest.

  1. STEP 1Sign in to the platform.
  2. STEP 2Open Booking Reviews Monitoring.
  3. STEP 3Paste Booking.com hotel URLs or slugs, one per line - or upload a CSV, XLSX, TXT or Parquet file.
  4. STEP 4Choose how often to re-scan: once a day, once a week, once every three weeks, once a month or once every three months.
  5. STEP 5Enter the email for the report, and the score at or below which a review is flagged negative.
  6. STEP 6Click Start Monitoring.

One row per review, each tagged with the hotel it came from - so a watch list of fifty properties still reconciles back to your input.

Why teams use it

A threshold
is a standing question.

Five schedules, from daily to quarterly

Once a day, once a week, once every three weeks, once a month, or once every three months - chosen when you set the monitor up, and a week is what it starts on. A property in the middle of a refurbishment and one you check on out of habit do not need the same cadence.

You define what counts as bad

Booking scores reviews out of ten, and you set the line: any review at or below your threshold is flagged negative, with three as the starting point. That turns a vague intention to watch reviews into a specific standing question, and it is the same number the report is built around.

The report finds you

An email address is required rather than optional, because the point of a monitor is that nobody has to remember to check it. The scan runs on your schedule through the proxy pool and a report arrives; your real IP is never used for any of it.

What you get back

Eleven columns,
one row per review.

Each row is one guest review as Booking publishes it - who wrote it and where they are from, the score, what they liked and what they did not, and the details of the stay behind it.

Booking does not ask for one block of review text. It asks what the guest liked and what they disliked, and this export keeps those as two separate columns rather than gluing them together - which is what lets you read complaints on their own without a sentiment model guessing where the praise stopped. Read the note under the table before you write a parser: the names are solid, and this page deliberately makes no promise about what arrives in them.

Data dictionary

Eleven columns,
in export order.

The platform's own column list, in the order the download writes them. Descriptions say what each field is for; they claim nothing about its format or whether it arrives filled - see the note underneath.

query
The hotel URL or slug you submitted, repeated on every row that came from it - so a watch list covering many properties still reconciles against your input.
reviewer_name
The display name the guest posts under, as Booking publishes it rather than a full identity.
reviewer_country
The country Booking shows against the reviewer. Useful for telling a language or expectation gap from a service one.
score
The guest's score for the stay. Booking's scale is out of ten - the platform's own threshold control says so - and this is the field the negative flag is computed from.
review_title
The headline on the review, where the guest gave one.
liked
What the guest said they liked, in their own words. Worth knowing: these values arrive padded with spaces at both ends and can contain line breaks, so trim before you match or group on them.
disliked
What the guest said they disliked - a separate column, which is the whole reason this export is easier to read than one glued block of text.
date
When the review was posted.
stay_date
When the stay itself happened, which is not the same date and is often the more useful one for tying feedback to a period.
room_type
The room the guest booked, as the review records it.
traveler_type
The kind of trip Booking recorded - the column that tells a business stay from a family holiday at the same property.

Read this dictionary as a list of names and purposes, not a promise about contents. The eleven names and their order come from the platform's published column list and are confirmed by the header row of archived runs carrying this shape. What this page will not tell you is what arrives in them, and the reason is specific: the Booking Reviews Scraper uses a byte-identical column list, so a run stored under this shape cannot be attributed to the monitor rather than to that scraper - which means no value in it may be presented here as this service's output. One formatting note does survive that, because it is a trap worth flagging: the liked text arrives padded with whitespace and can contain line breaks, so trim it. Beyond that, set a monitor on one hotel, let the first scan land, and read your own first rows before you build against any column.

Common workflows

Three jobs this
watches more than any other.

A few examples of how teams use scheduled review monitoring to answer a question that does not go away.

Hospitality

Know about the bad night before the pattern forms

Set the threshold where your own standard sits and let the daily scan do the watching. One low score is noise; three in a fortnight about the same thing is a problem, and the point of a monitor is that you find out while it is still fixable.

Ops · Hotels
Competitive

Watch the street, not just your own door

A watch list is not limited to properties you own. Put the hotels you compete with on a weekly cadence and the same report tells you what their guests are complaining about - which is the cheapest product research available to a hotel.

Strategy
Data

Separate the complaint from the compliment

Because liked and disliked are their own columns, a quarterly export gives you a clean corpus of criticism without a model having to guess where the praise ended. Group on the disliked column and the recurring words are the roadmap.

The legal bit

Is it legal to monitor
Booking.com reviews?

Short answer: yes for the public review content - and this export carries nothing about the booking behind it.

Guest reviews on Booking.com are published to be read. The score, what the guest liked and disliked, the dates and the room type are shown to anyone who opens the property page, signed in or not. Collecting publicly visible feedback for research is long-established practice, and nothing here touches a login, a reservation or a payment.

The reviewer field carries what the site itself publishes - a display name and a country, not a full identity. There is no email and no address in this output, and nothing about the reservation behind a review is collected: not what was paid, not the booking reference, not the card. If you are processing the review text in the EU, the usual rules still apply to what you do with it downstream.

Booking.com's own terms restrict automated access, so this is a terms question as well as a legal one - if you have a contractual relationship with the platform, check it. We run no third-party trackers on the data layer, and your exports auto-delete after 30 days.

Common questions

Things people
ask before signing up.

The questions we hear most. Anything else? Talk to us - humans, not bots, write the answers.

How do I monitor Booking.com reviews?+
Using Booking Reviews Monitoring:
  1. Sign in to the platform.
  2. Open Booking Reviews Monitoring.
  3. Paste Booking.com hotel URLs or slugs, one per line - or upload a CSV, XLSX, TXT or Parquet file.
  4. Choose how often to re-scan: once a day, once a week, once every three weeks, once a month or once every three months.
  5. Enter the email for the report, and the score at or below which a review is flagged negative.
  6. Click Start Monitoring.
How is this different from a reviews scraper?+
A scraper runs when you tell it to and hands you a file. This one you set up once: it re-scans on the schedule you chose and emails a report, so nobody has to remember to go and look. The email address is required for exactly that reason - it is not an optional extra here.
How often does it check?+
Whichever you pick: once a day, once a week, once every three weeks, once a month or once every three months. A week is what a new monitor starts on, and the cadence is a cost decision as much as a vigilance one, since a scan pulls rows.
What counts as a negative review?+
Whatever you decide. Booking scores reviews out of ten, and any review at or below the threshold you set is flagged negative - three is the starting value, and the range runs from one to ten. The flag is a straight numeric comparison against that number.
Can I paste a slug instead of a full URL?+
Yes. The field takes a Booking.com hotel URL or the bare slug from it, one per line, and you can mix both in the same list. If your watch list is already in a file, upload it as CSV, XLSX, TXT or Parquet instead of pasting.
Do I need a residential proxy?+
It is what the platform recommends here. The scan runs in a headless browser through the proxy pool, and the tool's own note says Booking blocks free and datacenter IPs, so a residential PROXY_URL is best. Your real IP is never used either way. If a scan comes back with nothing, that is the first thing to check.
What comes back for each review?+
Eleven columns: the query, the reviewer's name and country, the score, the review title, what they liked, what they disliked, the review date, the stay date, the room type and the traveller type.
How much does it cost?+
The first 500 rows are free and one-time, with no credit card. After that it is $0.002 per row - about $2 per 1,000 reviews - which is the same flat rate as every other service on the platform. A monitor costs what its scans pull, so the frequency you choose is also the bill you choose.

Your first 500 reviews,
on the house.

500 one-time free rows on every new account - no expiry. After that it is $0.002 per row, pay-as-you-go - no card on file until you say so.

Monitor Booking.com hotel reviews on a schedule

Livescraper's Booking Reviews Monitoring watches a list of hotels instead of exporting them once. You submit Booking.com hotel URLs or bare slugs - typed one per line, or uploaded as a CSV, XLSX, TXT or Parquet file - choose how often to re-scan, set the score at or below which a review counts as negative, and give it an address for the report. From then on it runs on its own and the results come to you.

The schedule runs from once a day to once every three months, with a week as the starting cadence, and the negative threshold turns a vague intention to watch reviews into a specific standing question. Booking scores out of ten, so a threshold of three flags the genuinely bad nights while a higher one catches the merely disappointing - and because a scan pulls rows, the frequency you choose is also the bill you choose.

Each row is one guest review: who wrote it and the country shown against them, the score, the headline, what they liked, what they disliked, the review date, the date of the stay, the room type and the traveller type. Booking splits praise and criticism at the source and this export keeps them apart, which is what makes a quarterly pull a clean corpus of complaints rather than a pile of mixed text a model has to sort.

Two practical notes. The scan runs in a headless browser through the proxy pool and the tool's own guidance is that Booking blocks free and datacenter IPs, so a residential PROXY_URL is best; your real IP is never used. And this page describes what the eleven columns are for without promising what arrives in them - the Booking Reviews Scraper uses a byte-identical column list, so archived rows cannot be attributed to this service, and the honest move is to set a monitor on one hotel and read your own first scan. Your first 500 rows cost nothing and need no credit card.
