Recipe · Hotels API

Hotel search with n8n

Live Booking.com rates with the filters the real site has (24 of them). Every property returns with a price, review score, room type, and a working booking link, so the agent can present a shortlist the user can act on immediately.

Free tier on RapidAPI. No card to try.

Step 1 · Connect

Install the community node

Settings → Community nodes → Install → n8n-nodes-flightpowers (v0.2.2 on npm). Add your RapidAPI key once as a credential; every workflow reuses it.

community node package name
n8n-nodes-flightpowers

Bring your own RapidAPI key: every request is billed to your own subscription, never ours.

Step 2 · Ask it

The prompt

The job in plain words. In n8n you express it as the node configuration below instead of a prompt.

Find me a hotel in Lisbon, October 9 to 12, 2 adults, review score 8+, free cancellation.

Step 3 · Under the hood

What the node sends

The node issues this request against the same live API: real parameter names, exactly as the endpoint takes them.

request the node issues
// search_hotels
{
  "destination": "Lisbon",
  "checkin_date": "2026-10-09",
  "checkout_date": "2026-10-12",
  "adults": 2,
  "filters": [
    "review_score_8",
    "free_cancellation"
  ]
}

Step 4 · Read the response

Fields your logic reads

The response is flat JSON. These are the fields this recipe branches on, with what each one means.

namestring

The property name as listed on Booking.com.

price_stringstring

The total rate for the stay as Booking.com displays it: “US$2,434”.

review_scorenumber

Booking.com guest score out of 10.

review_countnumber

How many reviews the score rests on: a 9.1 from 12 reviews is not a 9.1 from 1,200.

room_typestring

Which room the rate belongs to: compare like with like across markets.

linkstring (URL)

A working Booking.com link to the property.

Questions, answered plainly

Is my key billed to me?
Yes. Your RapidAPI key lives in an n8n credential, the node sends it on every request, and usage meters against your own subscription on RapidAPI. There is no FlightPowers account and no second bill.
Does this need a server of mine?
Only your n8n instance, cloud or self-hosted. The node calls the API directly from wherever n8n runs; there is nothing of ours to deploy.
What does it cost?
The Booking.com Live API's free tier is 10 requests/month with a hard cap: enough to verify your key works, not to evaluate. The PRO plan is $10/month for 2,000 requests, and every plan includes every endpoint.
