Room occupancies (Mins and Maxs values)

When you run either a hotels / hoteldetail or types / rooms operations, you will receive values showing the information about the minimum / maximum occupancies for that specific room. This will be:

  • minPax
  • maxPax
  • minAdults
  • maxAdults
  • maxChildren

It is important to bear in mind that this information is to be taken as a general reference. The max and min occupancies may vary depending on the contract, therefore you should not rely on the exact values returned on the content-api. Instead, our booking-api will return the rooms that can fit the occupancy you send on the AvailabilityRQ.
