Can I see room photos and the hotel layout through the hotel booking API so I know what I am selling to my customers?

Yes, the hotel booking API gives you access to room photos, property images, and descriptions so you can show your customers what they are booking. The amount and quality of photos depends on what the hotel has uploaded to their system, so some properties will have many detailed images while others may have just a few. You will also see information about room layouts, bed types, amenities and facilities so you can describe the property accurately to someone who is deciding whether to book.

When you search for a hotel through the API, the images and descriptions come back with the search results so you can review them before you show anything to your customer. This means you can be confident about what you are offering and answer questions about the room view, the bathroom setup, or whether there is a kitchenette. If a customer asks about something specific like whether the room overlooks the street or faces a courtyard, you will usually find that information in the property details.

Keep in mind that the photos are what the hotel provides, so they may be outdated or not show every angle of the room. Some hotels update their images regularly while others do not, so it is worth checking the booking date to see when the photos were added if that information is shown. If you spot something that looks wrong or out of date, you can contact the hotel directly to ask for updated images.

The best way to get started is to search for a few hotels in your API sandbox or test environment and look at what photos and descriptions come back, so you can see exactly what your customers will be able to see when they browse on your booking portal.
