Tripadvisor helps travelers find and compare hotels using traveler reviews, ratings, photos, pricing, and availability. Search accommodations by destination, retrieve detailed property information, compare hotel options, and discover nearby attractions and points of interest to make informed booking decisions.
Codex is OpenAI's coding agent for the terminal. It reads MCP servers from its config and signs in to remote ones with OAuth.
This guide connects Tripadvisor MCP to Codex through MewCP, so Codex can use Tripadvisor MCP's 3 tools, like search_hotels, hotel_details and compare_hotels.
Tripadvisor MCP needs no credentials, but every call still runs through MewCP: scoped, checked and logged like any other.

Other clients
Tripadvisor MCP works the same way in every client below. Pick yours for its own guide.
Free to start.
Scope access to the exact Tripadvisor MCP tools and accounts you allow, work and personal side by side. Anything outside that scope is refused at call time, even when the model asks for it.
Each call is logged: what ran, on which account, and whether it worked. Failures come back structured, so the agent knows whether to retry instead of guessing.
Every app sits behind one secure MCP URL, and there is no server for you to deploy or keep running. Add an integration in the dashboard and it is live on the next call, with no config to change and no new credentials to wire up. Tools load only when a task needs them, so your agent stays fast and focused however many apps you connect.

Search for hotels matching the given criteria, using either a named location or a Tripadvisor GeoID. When a proximity term is used (e.g. near/within/close to), the location parameter should contain only the landmark or place name (e.g. "near the Louvre Museum, Paris" → location = "Louvre Museum, Paris"; "within 1 mile of London Eye" → location = "London Eye"). Results are displayed in an interactive map widget that visualizes all returned hotels with full details. Tripadvisor uses "bubble rating" (not "star rating") for review scores. If pricing details are not available in the first response, the API can be called again with the same parameters (including the echoed-back userId, sessionId and pageViewId) to retrieve any additional pricing details that have become available. Alternatively, set the 'pricingMode' parameter to QUICK to have the API poll until pricing details are available or the timeout is reached. sortBy defaults to BEST_VALUE. Use PRICE_LOW_TO_HIGH for cheapest, DISTANCE for nearest to a location, or POPULARITY for most popular.
Retrieves comprehensive information for a specific hotel, including optional amenities, photos, live pricing, and guest reviews, based on user locale and stay dates. Use this tool whenever a user asks about a specific hotel by name, including: - Informational queries: "Tell me about X Hotel", "What are the amenities at X Hotel" - Qualitative questions: "How is X Hotel?", "Is X Hotel good?", "What do people think about X Hotel?" - Evaluative questions: "Is X Hotel a good option?", "Is X Hotel worth staying at?", "Would you recommend X Hotel?" - Suitability questions: "Is X Hotel good for families?", "Is X Hotel good for couples?", "Is X Hotel good for business travel?" - Any question where the user references a specific hotel and seeks information, opinions, or recommendations about it. If you do not get pricing details in the first response, you can recall the api with the same parameters (including the echoed back values of userId, sessionId and pageViewId) and it will return any additional pricing details that have become available since the first call. If you want to wait for pricing details to be available, you can set the 'pricingMode' parameter to QUICK, and the api will poll until either pricing details are available, or the timeout for that mode is reached.
Compares hotels either by explicitly specified hotels or by automatically selecting hotels within a given geographic area. This tool supports two mutually exclusive comparison modes: - Explicit hotel comparison: compare specific hotels provided via the `locations` parameter (minimum 2). - Area-based comparison: automatically select and compare a representative set of hotels from a geographic area via `hotelArea`. When no specific hotels are named, use `hotelArea`. When specific hotels are named, use `locations`. Useful for comparing subratings like location, cleanliness, service, value, etc. The response includes key comparison fields like name, rating, price, amenities, etc. Examples of when to use hotelArea: - "Compare hotels in Boston" - "Compare hotels in Paris for Saturday" - "Compare hotels near Tower Bridge, London" - "Compare hotels near the Eiffel Tower, Paris" - "Compare hotels around Times Square" - "Compare hotels in Back Bay, Boston" Examples of when to use locations (specific hotels named): - "Compare Hotel Continental and Grand Hotel in Paris" - "Compare these hotels: Marriott Boston, Hilton Boston, and Hyatt Boston"
