Hostelworld reviews

Reviews of a property, newest first: date, rating out of 10 and per-category scores, text, language, owner reply and the traveller's group type, age band, trip types and nationality, with positive and negative counts and the share of solo, couple and group travellers. Pass next_page back as page; null on the last page.

Every response includes credits_used: the credits this call cost.

Parameters

Every endpoint also takes fresh, raw, fields (see lean responses and caching).

Example

curl "https://api.api.sh/hostelworld/v1/reviews?id=72963" \
  -H "x-api-key: $APISH_KEY"

import os, requests

res = requests.get(
    "https://api.api.sh/hostelworld/v1/reviews",
    params={"id": "72963"},
    headers={"x-api-key": os.environ["APISH_KEY"]},
    timeout=120,
)
res.raise_for_status()
data = res.json()

const url = new URL("https://api.api.sh/hostelworld/v1/reviews");
url.searchParams.set("id", "72963");

const res = await fetch(url, { headers: { "x-api-key": process.env.APISH_KEY } });
if (!res.ok) throw new Error(`${res.status} ${await res.text()}`);
const data = await res.json();

Response

A JSON object with the fields described above, plus raw (the source's own data), cached, fetched_at and credits_used. Errors return {"success": false, "error": "…"} with the HTTP status (see errors). A lookup that ran but found nothing (404) costs the price above; refused calls and errors on our side are free (what's charged).
