Free access to the data: API and MCP

Every hotel opening tracked by NewHotels.io is freely available, in real time, via a REST API and an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server — to query the data from your own code, a spreadsheet, or directly from an MCP-compatible AI assistant (Claude, etc.).

Terms of use: access to this data is free, on the sole condition of including a visible link back to https://www.newhotels.io in any public reuse (a site, an article, an application, an AI assistant's answer citing this data, etc.).

REST API

A single read-only endpoint, no authentication required, that returns the list of tracked hotels, filterable by place.

Element	Detail
Endpoint	`GET https://www.newhotels.io/api/openings`
Parameter `lieu`	Optional — city or country (e.g. `Paris`, `United States`), accent/case-insensitive. Omitted: returns every tracked opening.
Format	JSON
Authentication	None — public read-only access

Example request

curl "https://www.newhotels.io/api/openings?lieu=Dubai"

Example response

{
  "lieu": "Dubai",
  "total": 19,
  "attribution": "Data by NewHotels.io (https://www.newhotels.io) — any public reuse must include a visible link back to the site.",
  "hotels": [
    {
      "id": "atlantis-the-royal-dubai",
      "nom": "Atlantis The Royal",
      "ville": "Dubai",
      "pays": "United Arab Emirates",
      "statut": "Ouvert",
      "ouverture": "10 February 2023",
      "groupe": "Kerzner International (Atlantis)",
      "chambres": "795 rooms and suites",
      "gamme": "Ultra-luxury",
      "tags": ["Ultra-luxury", "Atlantis", "Kerzner", "Dubai", "Palm Jumeirah"],
      "url": "https://www.newhotels.io/hotels/atlantis-the-royal-dubai"
    }
  ]
}

MCP server

The Model Context Protocol lets an AI assistant (Claude or any other compatible client) query our data directly during a conversation, no code required. Just declare the following remote server in the client's configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "newhotels": {
      "url": "https://www.newhotels.io/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Element	Detail
Transport	Remote MCP (HTTP), no authentication
Exposed tool	`list_hotel_openings`
Parameter	`lieu` (optional, same logic as the REST API)

Once the server is declared, just ask the assistant a natural-language question — for example "Which hotels recently opened in Dubai?" — and it will call the tool itself and answer from NewHotels.io's real data.

A specific use case (large volume, custom format, a particular time period)?
