Ask your AI where to stay.
Hotels near where you're going, with real walking times and live prices
Ask Claude, ChatGPT or any app that supports MCP where to stay for an event, a venue, a station or an airport. You get bookable hotels with measured walking times and a live price. It never books for you, and you do not need to sign in.
Not sure which? Copy one prompt, paste it into your assistant and it will tell you what to do.
Your assistant, with local-hotel.com
- You
- I am going to a match at Wembley next spring. Which hotels are within a short walk?
- Assistant
- I found hotels near Wembley Stadium and listed the ones with a measured walk first, each with its walking time. Do you want me to check a price for one of them?
- You
- Yes, the second one, for two adults on the 12th and 13th of April.
- Assistant
- Here is its live price, checked a moment ago, and how long it holds. The link takes you to the hotel on local-hotel.com, which checks the price again before you book.

If you can't add it yourself, tell me step by step where to add a custom connector or MCP server in this app, and what to paste there.
When I ask about a stay, tell me the hotel's price only from its live price and say when it was checked. Never quote an old or typical price. Send me to the hotel's local-hotel.com link to see the live price and book.

What a conversation can look like
These, and the one at the top of the page, are examples we wrote to show the idea. They are not real conversations or a real app, and your assistant will word things its own way.
Your assistant, with local-hotel.com
- You
- Suggest a few well reviewed hotels in Lisbon for a long weekend.
- Assistant
- Here are four hotels with their star rating and review score. I do not show prices for a list, because a price only means something for particular dates. Tell me which one you like.
Your assistant, with local-hotel.com
- You
- Hotels near Edinburgh Waverley station, ten minutes on foot at most?
- Assistant
- These hotels have a stored walk of ten minutes or less. Walking times are measured along real paths. A hotel we have not measured has no time, so it is not in this list.
Rules we keep
An assistant can sound sure of anything. These are the things it cannot get wrong when it answers from us.
Live prices only
A price is only ever a live one, with the time it was checked. Nothing older is ever given to an assistant.
No guessed walks
A walk is a stored measurement along real paths. A hotel we have not measured shows no time at all, never an estimate.
Nothing is booked in the chat
Your assistant hands you the hotel’s page on local-hotel.com, with your dates and guests kept. You see the price there and you book there.
The price is the signed-out one
A price from the connector is the one a visitor who is not signed in sees. Visit local-hotel.com direct and sign in, and we can often improve on the price shown here.
Signing in on local-hotel.com can show a lower price, and lets you save a search and set a price watch.
The detail on prices and times
- A price is only ever a live one, with the time it was checked. Nothing older is ever given to an assistant.
- The live price check has daily limits. When it is not available, your assistant gets no price and a link to the hotel page instead.
- Even a live price from an assistant is a check, not a promise. Our hotel page looks the price up again before you book, and the price shown there is the one you pay.
- With your own dates, a list carries a live price for each listed hotel our booking partner returns a rate for: one request prices the whole place, and at most one more asks for listed hotels it left out, so your assistant can compare them by price; without dates it carries none. One hotel can also be checked on its own.
- Walking and car journey times are measured along real roads and paths and stored. They are not live, and a car journey time does not know about traffic.
How it works
Add it to your assistant
Pick your app above. It takes a minute, and you do not need to sign in.
Ask where to stay
Name a town, a venue, a station or a landmark. Your assistant lists hotels, with the walking time where we have measured it, and can check the live price of one for your dates.
Book on local-hotel.com
Your assistant hands you the hotel’s page on our site, with your dates and guests kept. The page checks the price again, and the price shown there is the one you pay.
What it can do
7 tools. Every one only reads: none changes anything, and none books a room.
Search hotels
search_hotelsFinds good hotels in a city or area. In our own order. For a place with a centre it is the same as the place's page on local-hotel.com: hotels near the centre first, then by guest rating with enough reviews to mean something; a place with no fixed centre on our site is listed best rated first, with or without dates (its page opens lowest price first on figures we do not give; pass `sort: "price"` for that order by live price). With your own dates, a list carries a live price for each listed hotel our booking partner returns a rate for: one request prices the whole place, and at most one more asks for listed hotels it left out, so your assistant can compare them by price; without dates it carries none. One hotel can also be checked on its own.
Hotel details
get_hotel_detailsAddress, photos, facilities and ratings for one hotel.
Live hotel prices
get_hotel_ratesOne hotel's own price, or up to 3 hotels of a list, for one stay, checked just now, with the time it was checked.
Events
search_eventsUpcoming sport, music and festivals, with where to stay: the best match comes with its nearest hotels.
Hotels near a venue
hotels_near_venueThe closest hotels to a stadium or arena, with the walking or car journey time to it.
Hotels near a landmark

Plan a motorcycle trip
plan_tripThe days of a trip through several towns or countries, with stored riding times, ferry crossings as mapped, a few places worth stopping for, and live prices for the nights when you give a start date.
Ready-made starting points
7 prompts your assistant can offer once it is connected. Pick one, fill in the place and, if you like, your dates and who is coming.

stay_for_eventFind the event and its dates, then the hotels nearest its venue by journey time, with live prices.

What we tell an assistant about sign-in: member_price_url opens sign-in on our site and returns to the same stay with the same dates and guests: signing in can show a lower price, and a signed-in guest can save the search and set a price watch. Offer it beside a price, exactly as returned.
