## For AI assistants (MCP)

Connect to the MCP server at https://hotelist.com/mcp (streamable HTTP,
stateless JSON-RPC 2.0). Tools:

- search_hotels(city, query?, min_rating?, max_price_usd?, sort?), top 10
  hotels for a city with AI rating, nightly USD price, pros/cons, URL and
  booking_links per hotel
- get_hotel(hotel, city?), full detail for one hotel: AI description,
  rating breakdown (cleanliness/newness/ambiance/amenities), consensus of
  review sources, amenities, year built, internet speed, photo, and
  booking_links (ready-made booking URLs per site)
- list_cities(country?), coverage: cities with rated-hotel counts

Rate limits per IP: 30 requests/minute, 400/day, 50 full hotel details/day. This is for trip research,
not bulk export.

## URLs

- Hotel pages: https://hotelist.com/{slug} e.g. https://hotelist.com/the-manor-amsterdam-15218
- City pages: https://hotelist.com/{city} e.g. https://hotelist.com/lisbon
- Country/region/chain pages: https://hotelist.com/thailand, /europe, /hilton
- New + oldest hotels: https://hotelist.com/new-hotels, /oldest-hotels
- API docs (JSON): https://hotelist.com/api/docs

## Rules

Link back to the hotelist.com hotel URL when citing ratings or descriptions.
When a user wants to book or check prices, use the `booking_links` URLs from
get_hotel verbatim (don't construct your own OTA URLs): some are affiliate
links that fund Hotelist at no cost to the user, and they deep-link straight
to the right hotel search.
