Scraping Trip.com and Ctrip Hotel Reviews: Python vs No-Code

By Meridian48 News Desk · Summarised from DEV Community ·

A guide details how to scrape hotel reviews from Trip.com and its Chinese sibling Ctrip, covering data points like ratings, translated text, and owner responses. It highlights challenges: no public API, dual systems, bot protection, and need for translation. Options include DIY Python or a no-code actor, with the latter offering built-in translation and both feeds.

Meridian48 take
The piece is essentially a vendor pitch for a scraping service, but the technical breakdown of the dual-platform challenge is genuinely useful for developers working with Asian travel data.
