Hotel API Docs: https://www.srdvtechnologies.com/document/hotel/v8/download-resources

⇒ You may use either one database or both, depending on your integration requirements.


The hotel search behavior depends on the "RequestType" parameter passed in the Search Request API.

Database Selection Rules

  • If "RequestType": "Special" is passed in the Search Request API:
    → The system will fetch the city codes from the Special database.

  • If "RequestType": "International" is passed in the Search Request API:
    → The system will fetch the city codes from the International database.
