Requirements

• Node.js 18+
• A Booking.com account (for bookings, reservations, and wishlist)

Installation

npm install @striderlabs/mcp-booking

Or install Playwright browsers after install:

npx playwright install chromium

Configuration

Add to your MCP config (e.g. ~/.claude/mcp_servers.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "booking": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@striderlabs/mcp-booking"]
    }
  }
}

Authentication

The server uses cookie-based session persistence. Cookies are stored at ~/.strider/booking/.

1. Run booking_login to get the login URL
2. Open the URL in your browser and sign in
3. Run booking_status to verify the session is active

Usage Examples

Search hotels

booking_search(destination="Paris", checkIn="2026-06-01", checkOut="2026-06-05", adults=2, rooms=1)

Filter and sort results

booking_filter_results(maxPrice=200, minRating=8.0, freeCancellation=true)
booking_sort_results(sortBy="rating")

Check availability and prices

booking_check_availability(propertyUrl="https://www.booking.com/hotel/fr/...", checkIn="2026-06-01", checkOut="2026-06-05")
booking_get_prices(propertyUrl="...", checkIn="2026-06-01", checkOut="2026-06-05")

Book a room

# Preview first (no confirm flag)
booking_book(propertyUrl="...", checkIn="2026-06-01", checkOut="2026-06-05", adults=2)

# Confirm booking (only after explicit user approval)
booking_book(propertyUrl="...", checkIn="2026-06-01", checkOut="2026-06-05", adults=2, confirm=true)

Manage reservations

booking_get_reservations()
booking_cancel_reservation(reservationId="12345678", confirm=true)

Safety

• booking_book requires confirm=true and should only be called with explicit user confirmation
• booking_cancel_reservation requires confirm=true and is irreversible
• Both tools return a preview/warning when called without the confirm flag

Development

npm install
npm run build
npm start
