About HotelChrono
Every hotel has a timeline. We know it.
HotelChrono is building the world's first database of when every hotel was built and last renovated — the one fact every guest wants and no booking site shows.
Our mission
Make hotel freshness transparent. A 5-star hotel can be tired; a 3-star can be brand new. The Chrono Score (1–10) measures freshness only — never mixed with star ratings.
Our iron rule
No quote, no data. Every build and renovation year links back to the exact source sentence it came from. Built for due diligence, not guesswork.
How we gather data
Open data (OpenStreetMap, Wikidata, public registries) plus live AI research with cited sources. We never scrape OTA or hotel photos — that respects copyright and terms.
Always current
An autonomous engine keeps the database growing and re-verifying around the clock — prioritising the most recent renovation, never stale data.
Built in the open, for everyone.
Guests search for free. Hoteliers can claim their profile. Suppliers use the Renovation Radar. Developers build on the API. See pricing →
